Las Vegas mass shooting, updated as of this hour

Hi Dave, I guess it's the "American mindset", "it can't happen here,,,MUST be fireworks" one said. It's that disconnection to what's going on in the world that has me troubled. 1st of all, you'd NEVER catch me at a venue like this, and if I heard popping noises, I'd hit the dirt faster than Superman. People, young folks, generally, I found, turn off the news, "it's too depressing" and totally ignore the fact, that in a situation like this, that's where these things will happen.

 

That's the other thing, these people don't one day say, "I'm going to do this today". These people have troubled pasts and NOTHING is done about it. They interview these families of the shooter, "we had no idea,,," BALONEY, total denial. It's as if the media leaves out the folks that say, "oh yeah, we knew this would happen",, like X1 sez, I just feel sick every time this happens and we'd love to place the blame on a single factor, but obviously, it's not that easy,,,and in the meantime, life for the living goes on, I have to go get my meds from the pharmacy. Peace.

 

Problem is, hardly anyone exists who hasn't at one time in their past gone into a dark or depressed period in their life for one reason or another. Gotta be careful about making it too easy to get someone on "a list" just because they became seriously depressed or withdrawn for a time.

I bet you anyone who has ever rented time/weapon at a gun range to fire a fully auto is on "a list" somewhere. Kinda hard to get proficient with a full auto weapon without drawing all sorts of attention.

 

Trump just spoke and very beautifully I might add. He will be visiting Vegas Wednesday.

 

Then we had the stupid isis #### who stabbed a cop and plowed down a bunch of pedestrians in Edmonton AB on Saturday night. Thanks for opening up the borders to this trash Trudeau you twat!

Terrorism charges laid against Somali refugee in Edmonton attacks


RIP Vegas shooting victims.

 

Sources are saying he shot from 2 different rooms.

 

@Chinatown ....was that you?

 

In my mind, a firearm is simply a tool and is to be used responsibly as such. Look at these isis idiots in Europe, plowing people over with trucks. A truck moving at 50 mph into a giant crowd can harm just as many people. The bigger issue is mental illness and not properly vetting the people we allow in to our countries IMO.
