Horrendous attack in Las Vegas

[Herr Tubthumper]

This doesn't look Islamist related. IF it is the person related to Marilou who it has been suggested to be he is vehemently anti Trump according to his Facebook page.

Shame he didn't shoot Trump instead.

Las Vegas police is reporting that the gunman is a 64 year old man by the name of Stephen Paddock. He was killed by Las Vegas police on the 32nd floor of the Mandalay Bay Hotel. Numerous fire arms were found in the hotel room. The woman of interest, Marilou Danley, has been found. A search warrant is being executed on the residence of Paddock.

The Las Vegas sheriff is now reporting over 50 dead and over 200 shot.

At least one Las Vegas police officer is dead and other off duty police officers were killed.

President Trump's twitter account has so far been silent

CNN is calling this the worst mass shooting in US history.

Murica? Still the hics & halfwits who voted Trump will blather about their right to bare arms, precious 2nd amendment & all. Trumps reaction is no doubt on hold until the demographic of the shooter is announced. Won't be classed terrorism if ol whitey has merely had a brain fart.....

I think they SHOULD be allowed to wear short sleeves!

Report now says that over 20 are dead and at least 100 people were shot.

Reports now saying 50 dead and 200+ injured.

 

[BBassic]

BBC reporting 50 dead now. Senseless.

Still no use of the word Terrorist.

Still no use of the word Terrorist.

Because we don't know what the political motive (if any) of the shooting is, perhaps? If someone shouts something political whilst shooting people, it's pretty obvious what the motive is.

Surely you can't randomly kill people without some idiology behind it?

Mental health problems?

Mental health problems?

I'd argue someone who kills on the name of a mystical god has mental health issues.
Anyway, back to the news. Poor ****ers.

Eh? My point is, say he was a disgruntled ex-employee of the venue who just snapped (like that shooter at the autistic school(?)), then it wouldn't be "terrorism", would it? Whereas if he did it as a calculated attack to further an ideology of some sort, then yes I would agree Terrorist is the correct term.

Unless you are psychotic

Why would anyone, outside of the armed forces or police, need an automatic weapon?

Trump has spoken.

He has offered his "warmest" condolences.
