16-yr old shoots and kills 19-yr old intruder v. thank goodness for GA gun laws

I don't understand something:

Why is it that they ALWAYS mention things like "semi-automatic", "automatic", "9mm", "large caliber weapon", etc. in all these shootings and killings?

Does it really matter WHAT they were shot with enough to mention such specifics or is it that the media tries to sensationalize something?

I laugh all the time because that show "America's wildest Police videos" with that idiot "retired Sherriff John Bunnell" that's always calling every stupid gun an "automatic weapon" even when you clearly see its not. It's retards like him that have stupid John Q. public thinking EVERYTHING is automatic machine gun with grenade launcher attached.
