From what I've seen, anything except a .22 LR... unless it has a $30 4x scope, then it's a "sniper rifle"A little off topic but what makes something a "high powered rifle" in media terms? When I think high powered rifle I think 30-06, .308, 50, etc. How can you say you heard what sounded like a high powered rifle inside? A 9mm is going to be very loud inside. Does an ar chambered in 9mm constitute being a "high powered rifle"?
I lasted about 3 minutes on Twitter before I shut it down. Facts truly don't matter.I will await the facts but the dots to connect are getting closer together.
Twitter was screeching with claims the shooter was unquestionably a white caucasian cisgender Ultra-MAGA, a card carrying NRA member, a Domestic Terrorist wearing a red MAGA ballcap, and shouting hateful Asian ethnic slurs while blazing away with his fully semi-automatic assault rifle equipped with high capacity magazines holding hundreds of rounds.
The above is a collage of what I saw posted by various looneys. It's all about blaming it on Ultra-MAGA Q-Anon Trumpies and the NRA who love their guns more than human life that are blocking the banning and seizure of all guns. That there isn't a shred of truth to any of it doesn't matter. It's all about the narrative. After a few minutes of getting the Twitter Temperature I closed the browser tab in disgust.

He said that he believes that type of weapon is not legal in California, but that more "research" was needed”.
