God, grant me serenity to accept the things I can't change
Courage to change the things I can
And the firepower to make a difference.

Re: Las Vegas Mandalay Bay Active Shooter
My question is why do we report gun purchases but no one pays attention to someone who buys a lot of guns?

Re: Las Vegas Mandalay Bay Active Shooter
Just because someone buys a lot of guns or ammo doesn't mean they want to kill people. There's lots of folks on this forum that do that.striker55 wrote:My question is why do we report gun purchases but no one pays attention to someone who buys a lot of guns?

Re: Las Vegas Mandalay Bay Active Shooter
I have looked for this information, but cannot find it anywhere. I suspect that the "500 casualties" are not all from GSW and I suspect that less than half are from gunfire.BBYC wrote:Have the revealed yet how many GSW and how many stampede injuries and deaths?

Re: Las Vegas Mandalay Bay Active Shooter
Many of the injured were actually from falling, twisted ankles/knees, being trampled, etc. I have only seen 2-3 people interviewed that actually had GSW's.Charles L.

Hopefully those numbers will come to the surface as more details are released.

Hate to say it, but im sure a good handfull of "injuries" are just to be part of the lawsuit as well....Keith B wrote:Many of the injured were actually from falling, twisted ankles/knees, being trampled, etc. I have only seen 2-3 people interviewed that actually had GSW's.Charles L.

If a security guard was shot why wasn't every armed security person LEO or not who was on the property, at that guys room with in 5 minutes. I don't understand.

What other “facts” that have been released aren’t accurate or even true?
The left lies about everything. Truth is a liberal value, and truth is a conservative value, but it has never been a left-wing value. People on the left say whatever advances their immediate agenda. Power is their moral lodestar; therefore, truth is always subservient to it. - Dennis Prager

Crud, this is going to put a ding in the stats - http://www.cnn.com/2017/10/09/us/las-ve ... index.html
In the deposition, Paddock said he had a concealed weapons license in Texas, but, other than that, there was no discussion of guns.

I have friends from the philippines and as someone commented in the first link that mexicans look like filipinos which I believe is true, and the man and woman warning everyone looked mexican or so we are told. Something seems off on this whole deal and I'm not one for conspiracys just fyi.

Re: Las Vegas Mandalay Bay Active Shooter
The only reason to report multiple purchases is so the government can add people to "the list"striker55 wrote:My question is why do we report gun purchases but no one pays attention to someone who buys a lot of guns?
This is my opinion. There are many like it, but this one is mine.
Re: Las Vegas Mandalay Bay Active Shooter
New disclosure shows a casino guard alerted hotel to gunman before Vegas massacre began. So why did it take so long to stop him? - Los Angeles Times
https://apple.news/AkuTx_jA5QZqNjsQwl650yg
Lots of stuff LA Times has found out, that Sheriff's office hasn't released.
Had survivalist gear in room and home.
Tracer ammunition.
Bullet resistant vest.
Police and armed hotel security arrived at room at same time after his rampage had stopped.
An attorney for one victim, has used the word negligence. Hotel owned by MGM.
High speed elevators serve 32 no floor.
Security guard called in the shooting after he got out of line of fire.
No cameras in hallways only elevator lobbies.
Camera and radio time stamps are not accurate, supposedly.

That six minutes is really bothering me, I don’t understand at all. Something very, very different should have happened given those 6 minutes.philip964 wrote: That gave them a 6 minute head start to stop him.
