| Geez. It just makes things sadder considering that such attacks are to be expected now. Condolences to all those affected. Over 500 is just so intense to think about for a lone gunman. |

This was a planned out attack. |

| I live there and it feels like nothing even happened tbh. It's sad for sure though. I'm glad I don't know anyone who was there and I hate country music. |

Salvatia said: yes we do have armed security and police but they would rather shoot unarmed peoplegud guy w/ gun for halt dis maniac is exactly was wat needed insted crowd be of fish in barrel also do usa public events srsly have no armed security? wtf Also people who got shoot probably did have a gun on them but its worthless if your attacked out of no where which is why we DONT need more guns we need less and we definitely need to stop selling fully auto magic weapons with safety pins keeping them from being full auto especially as anyone can just look up how to remove it from the gun. |

| Did he do an Agent 47 and have his rifle come in pieces in a suitcase. Whatever the case that hotel should be liable absolutely shocking security that allows someone to get that much firepower into their room. |
worldeditor11 said: I am more concerned with the accuracy of the gun itself. Is it possible for an AR to cause that many casualties considering his position located on the 30th floor of a hotel? He is clearly a gamer and has been training on CoD, unlucky for him the match ended before he could call in his tactical nuke killstreak reward. |
worldeditor11 said: And why didn't the people disperse away from the shooting? Instead of staying put. Exactly my reaction. Getting on the ground isn't going to save you in any sit, esp when the shooter is elevated o.O. LOL at the middle finger, but I seriously was waiting for those bullets to start ripping through the crowd. Apparently it was fish in a barrel at 400yds, but his rifles had an effective range of double that, if I'm not mistaken. |
| damn, the shooting in total lasted less than a minute. you would think with 500 injured and 60+ dead he was up there shooting for at least 10minutes. tells you how powerful some of these guns are damn |
| U really don't need accuracy when the crowd is packed so densely There were upwards of 10k people at the venue if I'm not mistaken Just spray and pray |
| That's just crazy, man... what a terrible thing. Wonder what his motivation was. |

hazerddex said: Soverign said: no sadly they are technically illegal but not illegal to own. There just a safety mechanism. Inside one sold to civilians to prevent it being used on full auto but this is easy to bypassIts going to be some crazy ass shit. Since fully automatic weapons are all but completely illegal, and extremely difficult to obtain for non military, police, or whatever. Also, attacked a country music festival. "The shooting at a country musical festival on the Las Vegas strip Sunday night has already become the most lethal in modern American history, with at least 58 people murdered and more than 500 injured by a gunman firing from a window of the Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino. But gun experts who have watched—and heard—recordings of that tragedy note another distinction: It appears to be the first mass shooting in decades to have been carried out with a weapon capable of firing at automatic, or near-automatic, speeds approaching hundreds of rounds a minute. What remains unknown: How the shooter achieved that rate of fire, given that gun laws make acquiring a fully automatic weapon extremely difficult in the United States, if not impossible. But there's no shortage of potential answers. Exemptions do exist in the 30-year-old automatic weapons ban that make it possible for a civilian to attain one. And more likely, many technical hacks, some legal and some not, enable gun enthusiasts to turn their semi-automatic rifles into deadlier, rapid-fire weapons." https://www.wired.com/story/las-vegas-shooting-automatic-rifle/ Lets be clear here. I actually don't think any civilian has a reason to own a fully automatic weapon of any kind. I know, I know, that is absurd. As for what the other dude said about renting them in Vegas and Texas, that is even fucking crazier. Like, yeah man, I am going to rent out this M249 SAW to ya, no worries. Anyways, as far as modifications go, I think there was an initiative on changing civilian firearms internals or something. So It might look like a M-16, but it will never be one. Anyways. I immediately thought of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/University_of_Texas_tower_shooting |

| Above all politicization of this, this really just needs to be condemned as one of the most awful events to befall this country. So many lives have been destroyed all because of one sick, disgusting individual. Whats terrifying is he has no ties to any organization, he was just a nutjob, and why thats so terrifying is these fuckers inspire other people to do the same cause they see just how effective it is at leaving their mark on history. Randy stair the Weis shooter from june was inspired by the columbine shooters and dreams of imitating them. Its terrifying but theres going to be nutcases that look up to this disgusting man and are going to try and imitate. |

| Yeaterday, they said is two person killed. Now +50 ??Dem, that's crazy. My thought for the victim |
 |
| I would like to have more of a profile on the shooter. He's either #1, an anti-social psychopath with a gun. Not much else I can say about that, always a possibility. #2, A racist, anti-immigrant republican, but considering he targeted a country music festival (with mostly white people?), and perhaps a good deal of Trump supporters, I don't think this is the case. Not to mention his girlfriend is Indonesian. #3, Somehow connected to ISIS, but Islamic attacks tend to be pretty obvious when they happen, and the man hasn't really left anything that point towards ISIS (and ISIS claiming responsibility doesn't mean anything; they'll take the credit for anything that looks good). #4, An anti-Trumper, left-leaning, or somehow related to Antifa. The targeted demographic checks out, and it's not like we haven't seen these kind of attacks from an alienated Sander's supporter in the recent past. Lastly, and I doubt this is the case, but in his own sick way he could be anti-gun ownership. You know, using the shooting as an example of why these kinds of weapons shouldn't be owned by everyday people. Though you'd think that someone who cared about gun control would be adverse to shooting up a crowd of people, not to mention the automatic rifle(s) he used are illegal. |

| @Ikaros_42oh ye lol on Counter-Strike it shoots randomly and its accuracy only stabilize after 5-8 seconds -------------------------------------------------- Paddock’s choice of a firing position 400 yards from the stage at a high overlook suggests a plan of attack to fire into a densely packed area where accuracy would not be a top concern. That distance is near the 500-yard effective range for an M-4, but machine guns typically have longer barrels which extend range. A weapon such as the M-249 Squad Automatic Weapon, or SAW, is effective at 800 meters for individual targets. The National Rifle Association says Nevada law allows the purchase of machine guns and silencers in compliance with federal law and regulations. https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/checkpoint/wp/2017/10/02/video-from-las-vegas-suggests-automatic-gunfire-heres-what-makes-machine-guns-different/ Nevada allows the sales of guns like this? wow who cares about Weapons Of Mass Destruction Shootings |

| I went to sleep last night with a reported 2 dead and 20+ injured, repeatedly asking myself how damaged the guy has to be in the head to commit an act like that. Then I woke up to the updated numbers and found out that it was the 'Deadliest mass-shooting in modern US history'... People can and have already speculated a bunch of shit about him, but at the end of the day, it makes no difference. He was a deranged and fucked up individual. Killed and injured countless innocent lives before killing himself.

| kinda of a strange character profile the guy wasn't exactly in financial trouble (he's a retired accountant and a multi millionaire) wasn't exactly a recluse since he was married a couple decades ago and has a girlfriend she is out of the country though not sure if she fled prior to the rampage or just on a coincidentally out of the country for unrelated reasons |
