I am curious to find out if it was actually an ak-47 or just a semiautomatic clone. Media can sometimes be loose on the actual facts . Hopefully this will wake more people up that the students and facility need to have the means to protect themselves.

I think you mean "consistently embellish or outright make things up". You'd be hard-pressed to find a news report (especially early in an incident) that doesn't make this fabrication. Remember when DPS started carrying AR/M4 rifles at the Capitol? The news continued to tout them as "High-Powered Rifles", even days after the initial reports started.
