CNN didn't mention the type of weapon until the 15th paragraph.
ABC calls it a "gun" or "long rifle."
WaPo didn't mention the type of weapon at all.
Why?

Her son? Reports I read were confused about that. It seemed like it was a child she had custody of but wasn’t her child. Foster or some such thing.

CLAIM: The shooter who carried out an attack injuring two people at a Texas megachurch on Sunday has been identified as transgender.
AP’S ASSESSMENT: False. Houston police said on Monday that its investigation has thus far determined that the shooter, Genesse Ivonne Moreno, identified as female despite using multiple aliases, including the name Jeffery — or Jeffrey — Escalante. Multiple court records identify Moreno as female, most recently in 2022.
Key point is that Moreno is no longer identified as alive.

I don’t believe that I stayed the shooter was trans, but frankly, did the shooter (biological female) not self identify in the past as a male?

And as much as the public face of transgenderism is a boy becoming a female, the sad facts are the vast majority are abused young ladies identifying as men.
