Is there any comment in the US coverage about the main weapon used in this attack? The UK Telegraph newspaper says the weapon used was an AR-15 which surprised me. I used to have a permit for this rifle and it is classed as a "semi-automatic" which means it only shoots one round at a time, whereas one of the witnesses interviewed stated repeatedly that he heard (or saw?) a fully automatic weapon being fired. I know there is a conversion kit available for this rifle, or there used to be, but that would make it illegal, whereas the press reports keep saying it was a legal weapon.
Any insights appreciated.

The shadow is a moral problem that challenges the whole ego-personality, for no one can become conscious of the shadow without considerable moral effort. To become conscious of it involves recognizing the dark aspects of the personality as present and real. This act is the essential condition for any kind of self-knowledge.
