After CNN was blasted by gun experts online for its segment providing “an up-close look at the AR-15,” the gun expert from the segment responded to criticism about a term he seemed to invent during his demonstration of how the gun operates: “full semi-automatic.”
In a moment from CNN’s AR-15 segment pointed out by the Free Beacon’s Stephen Gutowski and NRA spokeswoman Dana Loesch, among others, after firing a few rounds rather slowly, retired Lieutenant General Mark Hertling explains that he is going to use the gun in “full semi-automatic” mode, a line CNN follows by telling viewers that the AR-15 is “a weapon designed to inflict maximum damage.”
