Since when does a pump-action shotgun become an "automatic weapon"?!?!?!?!?!?

well, it looks like yahoo changed the page and picture number.  so instead of re-editing my previous message AGAIN, i'll just apologize for wasting everyone's time.  

The caption claimed the subject was holding an "automatic weapon" and the picture showed a pump action 12ga, with a pistol grip stock.  Guess that makes it *bad* huh?

To them, a rubber band is an automatic weapon as long as it gets their distorted anti-gun message across.

forgot to mention -- the subject was identified as a "U.S. Customs Officer".

Yesterday on MSNBC, the camera showed some cop on top of a building or tower holding a shotgun. The reporter say that he was a police sniper. What an idiot.
