Jesus people. The M4 does NOT have full auto. The M4A1 does however.


M4 Carbine | Military.com


There are several benefits to upgrading M4s to M4A1s. Compared to the M4 , the M4A1 has full auto capability, a consistent trigger pull, and a slightly heavier barrel. The heavier barrel is more durable and has greater capacity to maintain accuracy and zero while withstanding the heat produced by high volumes of fire. New and upgraded M4A1s will also receive ambidextrous fire control.

Yeah, that makes no sense.

More than likely it was an older guy who snapped or is just a sick individual.
His brother said he had no machine guns a few months ago. Did the shooter get a delivery from Eric Holder?

It's not for no reason. ISIS will and does take responsibility for every incident it can, because it makes them see more influential, and because they are perfectly willing to hijack on everyone's fear in order to advance their political agenda.

Sad but true. We don't know what to believe.

It's way too easy to take responsibility these days with one tweet
These links are the reason why I say that ISIS would:

I'm thinking this as well. ISIS is going to claim anything they can to push their agenda. There is more to this guy than just "a crazy white dude snapped" though. It seems like this was just too well thought out to be a spur of the moment lost his mind type of thing.
