Sad to say ISIS is looking more credible here than the FBI and VPD are. The times we live in... The Enquirer is now more credible than the mainstream media.

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.

Chas.
197 injuries by lead projectiles. Sorry, do not remember which article. That number seemed low to me. Like you would actually have to make an effort to NOT hit people to have a hit rate that low. I am reminded of my early years goose hunting where I learned you seldom make hits shooting amongst a group of birds. If you aim for nothing, that is usually what you hit. I wonder if he was "pointing" to the center of the crowd even after the center had moved to the edges. One thing for sure, there will always be more questions than answers with this one.

Re: Las Vegas Mandalay Bay Active Shooter

"Why so many rifles?!! For a single shooter? The whole thing seems fishy. Shooting happened for 9min, actual entry to the shooter location happened after 72 mins. What happened, what the shooter was doing in those 63 mins?!!"

He had two windows, two shooting positions. My guess is he split his rifles between the two locations. When he drained one he dropped it and picked up the next one in line. He never had to switch mags. The police are patting themselves on the back for stopping him in 18 minutes... I think we know it did not happen that way. What was he doing after the 11 minutes of fire? Becoming room temperature...
