Assault riffles

I guess Freud would find this picture "faulty action". The U.S. marine in the picture is petting a cat. At first glance this picture does seem odd, but what else was the marine to do. He has probrably stationed in Iraq for a very long time so he pets a passing cat with his gun still in his hand. I don't think he was supposed to put the gun down. Since Freud was a fake, no one really cares what he thinks.
