He is a white guy in his 60's apparently.
Death toll will probably break 100 before this is all said and done
Guy was shooting full auto into a crowd from an elevated position for anywhere from 5-10 minutes.

I was thinking along the same lines. White guy that attacks a country music concert. It has to be some one against conservatives. Also Steve Scalise just came back. They tried the healthcare thing and going for the tax reform. I think it's something along those lines.
No matter what the motive this is sad and my heart goes out to the people, friends, and family members there. This should not happen, but will continue to happen. The media encourages this with saying it's the worst mass shooting in history. Well now the next guy has to have that title and will try to beat him.
I am surprised LVPD didn't have the region scouted more thoroughly in anticipation of such an attack. It was clearly easy pickings for a determined shooter, particularly with access to full auto firepower. I would have expected high vantage points to be covered by anti-sniper personnel.
I know it easy to knee jerk react and Monday morning QB, but the police doesn't and shouldn't deploy snipers for concerts and gatherings
I get it, but an outdoor concert of approximately 30,000 people, within range of several high buildings, and in Las Vegas? Just seems like it should have registered that circumstances are pretty much ideal for such an attack.

Tragic doesn't begin to describe this.
If you haven't cried for the victims and at the injustice, see video at beginning of this article.

Keep praying for the victims and for healing in our republic.

stand by for a new assault weapons ban.....soon
You don't agreed that there were outliers in this case?
Way beyond sad. Definitely sounded like full auto to me as well.
I am also certain that the anti's will immediately jump on this to attack gun owners and gun rights.
Pretty sure Qhomo will unleash NYSAFE II bill before midnight to outlaw possession of all so called assault rifles. Because can't ever let a tragedy go to waste...

Truly awful stuff. I could only imagine. Thoughts and prayers with the victims and their families. On top of that I wonder what the fallout (if any) there will be because of this.

I just don't know how to respond to all of this other than to pray for the victims and their families.
Unfortunately, now we have to just sit by and wait for the agenda pushers and gun grabbers to pounce.

Pure speculation but ice come up with a few random theories
Here is what I am thinking
A country concert was targeted. Typically the audience is made up of mostly white mostly central to conservative political views
An older white guy attacks them, that at one point lived in California and clearly has anger issues, and is a non veteran and may have been involved in a law suit against a casino. It seems similar to the scalise/ Congress baseball shooter
I wonder if more information comes out that this guy is An angry "resister" and hates trump and the political right in this country. I would like to know this guys political beliefs and activism.
I am just speculating based on known facts so far where I think this may go.
If that is true it is such a sad day in so many levels that people take to violence to express political anger.
I just cannot make sense of what happened.

Well, is interesting that SCOTIS reconvenes today... And the recent ruling in D.C. on top of the news! Are there triggers/activators for these nut cases?
Is sad beyond belief...
Can't even read any more news as all the pot smoking criminal migrant coddling kool-aid drinking tree hugging Liberal Progressives are in full bloom!
Will be more of the same, as always... The wild card will be Trump's response as he's a politician 10 months now. But politicizing the event won't and shouldn't be received well by anyone! I remember Barack Hussein Obama standing on the warm dead bodies declaring how guns guns guns were the problem...
Anyways...

So much for HPA/national reciprocity/getting our rights back etc. Really have to wonder about the timing of this.
He is old enough to have served in Viet Nam, it would have been 71-73 timeframe. So I would not count out him being a veteran.

Pelosi will be mumbling something about how a silencer would have made this more deadly ..
I heard the sheriff say in a press conference that he was Never in the military
I'm going to guess that HR 38 National Reciprocity, if it was not already dead thanks to asshole RINO's like Paul Ryan, will wither and die now...because we all know that UNLIKE radical Islamic terrorists, gun owners must be judged as a whole group based on the actions of ONE person.
