And you can't see why using the argument that a particular thing is good for mass murder to support regulation is simplistic?

It's not simplistic. Your argument is. These are guns. Guns designed to kill.
Measures have been taken to mitigate the possibility of attacks in every other way. Cockpit doors are fortified and TSA screens passengers. Cities around the world are working to better protect large gatherings of pedestrians from vehicles. The glaring difference is of course that America has done nothing to address these attacks. Not one thing. In fact, people like you actively fight against it. So when you use arguments like, " ya but...trucks", it is not only simplistic but dumb.

Guns are designed to propel a projectile at a target
Anything else that happens is the shooter's responsibility.

OK so how do you stop these type of attacks without trampling on the rights of people who own guns or want to own guns who will never commit such a crime?
You do not need to propel a projectile at a target at 500 rounds per minute

It's not up to you to tell other people what they "need" is it?

I don't shoot like that because it's an impractical way to shoot a gun if you are concerned at all about accuracy.

But it doesn't matter if people can because the vast majority of people who own guns and who might use a bump stock will never ever turn their weapons on other people
Yes it is

When I see 500 injured and 59 dead, I have a right to say

Enough is enough

Of course you have the right to say it, that's what the first amendment is for.

What you don't have is the right or balls to make it happen.
 
I still can't believe that people can be so horrible and do such terrible things.

I find it very hard to believe an older white guy with all the money and Pinay women he would want would give that up to mass-murder people.

Why?

Why?

Because neither of things provide true happiness, stability or mental clarity.

. There comes a point in ones life, and depending on the mental scars developed, then anything is possible.

This is starting to sound like a botched investigation. Details like this, coming out a week after it happened, really doesn't make the people responsible for this investigation look good....and will open up a can of worms for conspiracy theorists.
 
Nightstand note
A note containing handwritten numbers for wind, trajectory and distance was discovered by Paddock's body inside the Mandalay Bay room.

Law enforcement officials briefed on the investigation confirmed to ABC News Sunday that the note found on Paddock's hexagon-shaped nightstand contained such numerical figures.

The details of the note were first reported by CBS’ “60 Minutes.”

The latest on Las Vegas mass shooting
 
Jesus Campos, who was injured in the leg during the shooting, investigated "sounds of drilling" coming from the 32nd-floor room of the Mandalay Bay resort where killer Stephen Paddock was staying, authorities said at a late-afternoon press briefing.

Paddock, who had an arsenal of rifles and ammunition in his room, was drilling holes inside the room in preparation for his well-planned attack, which included not only firing bullets at the concert-goers below, but also the planting of at least 50 pounds of explosives in his car.

Moments later, Campos was shot in the leg by Paddock, an injury he would survive. The time of the shooting was 9:59 p.m. Las Vegas time — about six minutes before Paddock began spraying bullets into the crowd. He killed 58 and injured nearly 500 before fatally shooting himself as police closed in.


"He (Campos) was injured prior to the mass volume shooting," said Sheriff Joe Lombardo of the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police.

Paddock is believed to have been drilling holes either to install surveillance cameras, or to simply have openings to fire bullets through, Lombardo said.

Vegas mass killer shot a security guard minutes before carnage began

This is crazy. He shot out of broken windows. The cameras were on a cart and in the peephole.

They don't know what he was drilling? There was never a report of finding a drill.
