    According to Las Vegas channel 13 news (KTNV)...

    Shooter had at least 10 guns (high powered rifles?) and 2 platforms setup to shoot from, plus he had cameras setup to see police arriving.

    So yes, this shooting was setup well in advance.

    You really believe more strict guns laws would have stopped this from happening? We should have implemented tight gun controls in this country a long time ago (100 + years ago). We didnt so the guns are here and there is no good solution from either side. The shear number of guns here prevents that. We cant roll back and become Australia or the UK.
    That's been the speaking point for over 20 years. How long has this guy owned his killing machine and ammo?

    Tough problem for sure. Doing nothing is the easy reaction but it still isn't working.

    i own a gun and am not in favor of banning guns generally. but i don't get why we allow assault rifles to be owned in this country, as they have the power to turn bad shootings into what we saw in vegas this weekend. the only reason assault rifles have not already been banned is the NRA is such a ridiculously powerful special interest lobby (i.e. the swamp)

    make owning an assault rifle a felony with a 5-year minimum term and ownership will drop by 99.9%. nobody carries an assault rifle so there isn't a legitimate "we need to arm the good guys with the same weapons the bad guys use" defense to this

    that being said, if nothing was done after sandy hook, nothing will be done in the next 75 years. thank you swamp

    I own a car and am not in favor of banning cars generally. but i don't get why we allow big cars to be owned in this country, as they have the power to turn bad wrecks into what we saw in paris a few weeks ago. the only reason huge trucks have not already been banned is the need for them is such a ridiculously powerful special interest lobby (i.e. the swamp)

    Total autonomy, don't have to wait for some possible rapist who is just advancing a technology that will make him/her obsolete in the not too distant future.

    I book a flight to Naples FL for Oct 3 and it gets blasted by biggest hurricane.

    Change flight to Vegas and book Excalibur - 2 hotels away.

    My wife has been hounding me about which shows we might see. Looks like we will have our pick this week.

    Daughter told not to go to work today in Vegas. Businesses are spooked

    Kids are telling me that last weekend there was a much bigger event. The Life Is Beautiful Festival downtown Vegas

    It is a music, art and speaker festival
    rock, rap and indie music
    Art installations and food trucks everywhere

    But if you hate America, country music was the way to go I suppose

    Lol, Blizarian. How many people did that midget run over on his way out if that fraud was really there

    I actually agree with you. I thought the gun laws were by and large left up to the states to figure out.

    the map shows the hotel on the other side of the road from the festival. going to be hard to throw events near hotels or high rises ever again. any gun experts on here? was he just randomly opening up into the crowd or aiming per person? sickening. what a diabolical shooter.

    on another note, it says he lived in Mesquite. I remember that shithole, we flew to Vegas to go to Southern Utah for a daily vacation, and stopped at a Denny's in a casino hotel in Mesquite. I went to the bathroom in the casino and was literally followed in like I was going to be jumped. I turned around and exited fast. The locals were all down on your luck meth types.

    Watching the Left & Right both rooting hard for the shooter to have opposite political beliefs to their own, is really quite sad.


    Also, have handguns if you must, but JFC stop selling automatic weapons.


    Fuck the NRA

    Didn't know this until about 30 mins ago. But tourism wise, Vegas is visited by more Brits per year than any other country.


    We've lived with terrorism since the 70's and don't scare easily when it comes to this shit.

    We shall not be moved.

    Btw - I'm surprised ISIS didn't claim the credit for the recent hurricanes. It's what they do.

    Definitely sad news to wake up to. Glad to see the first poster in the thread was Vegas1369. I hope all other Vegas based PFAers are safe.
