Just saw a new video of the initial gunfire on fox. The gunfire sounded pretty rapid. Maybe an automatic weapon?

ETA: Sorry for my poor analysis. Wasn't considering echoes.

Listening to the initial shots from the guy that videoed from high in the building

Sounds like someone with an AR type rifle taking aim and firing 5-6 shots at target. Squire new target and fire 5-6. Move to next target and fire several rounds, on and on.

Supposedly may be laws against carrying in a protest though.

Unconfirmed

They were several open carry demonstrators at the protest. I heard they laid their guns down to police when the shooting stopped so they wouldn't be mistaken

It was semi auto and the sound reverberating off the buildings making it sound like full auto

No. Semi-auto will fire as fast as you can pull the trigger

Texas is definitely an open carry state. So is MS.

Jesus. I knew we could carry handguns. I didn't know you could just walk around with an AR.

No

Semi auto AR style rifle

Sounded like 5.56 but no real way to tell
