Supposedly they had been in and out and never saw anything in the room suspicious.
16 were found in the hotel, anywhere from a caliber 308 to 223.

Seriously, he was there since last Thursday, right?

How did all that get up in there without housekeeping or hotel security noticing something?

A:) He had accomplices.

If there were 5-6 accomplices, it all could be brought in after 10AM in 1 day.
 
ZzzZ we zzz need more ZzzZ guns in the hands of the ZZzzzZzz good guys ZZZ.
 
There is a legal market for firearms trade in the USA because of the law there.


Yes. And thank God we haven't given up our rights to defend ourselves.
Fifty-eight Americans and 515 injured were not protected by the murderer in Las Vegas last night.






Indeed they weren't. The Clark County sheriff is virulently anti gun so the concert was in a "gun free" zone. So, yet again, the victims were placed into a shooting bowl and prevented the means to defend themselves.
How many armed concert goers could take out a sniper that far away?





There were a bunch of prior military there who would have had the ability to at least keep the asshole ducking. That would have allowed many to escape unharmed. How did your gun free zone help the victims?:cuckoo:
From what I've seen, there are few hand guns that would be able to accurately return fire from the concert venue.
 
Unbelievable..... Will be following the investigation big time.... It will be highly interesting to see where this goes. The age of the individual has me baffled somewhat. Normally the age is what usually between 25 to 40 years old ? 64 ?? Unbelievable. Will be highly interesting to see who exactly this cat was. Our thoughts and prayers go out to the survivor's, their loved ones, and the fallen. I hope they leave no stone unturned, and if anyone else is involved at all, then they need to be investigated to see who their tied to as well. :(

Someone took turning 65 really really hard
 
Okay. That would be the gun manufacturers of America, but I don't see that happening. Or are you talking about the trickle of guns that were used to try to catch gun runners?

So you're blaming GM because someone uses a car they manufactured, to plow into and kill others?

I could be snarky and say, "Let's start in USMB", but the fact is, those places were cruel and didn't do much to help the people in them.

So could I have been. Nice that you followed my lead and refrained.

Again, not seeing how any of these prevents a crazy person like the guy today from going on a mass shooting. It seems like you are trying to point to everything else in the room to deflect.

And you apparently have already decided that this guy has no criminal record or terrorist affiliations. Why not wait and see?
The Sheriff did a press briefing this a.m. saying he had no criminal record. FBI had no terrorist affiliations on their list. What are we supposed to wait and see about?


For one thing how he got so many weapons into a hotel room without housekeeping or hotel security noticing.

Glad I'm not the head of security there, that's one hot seat right about now.
Are you sure these type of rifles wouldn't fit in a suitcase or under a coat or in a golf bag, for instance? I'm just asking, since I don't know.
Broken down they would, I doubt more than 2 would fit into a big suitcase. Housekeeping usually comes in the AM every day.

When there is a Do Not Disturb sign?
 
there are more 'regulations' on firearms than any other piece of merchandise.

What is needed, is for those regulations to be enforced

Yes and has anyone mentioned that those shots were from a fully automatic weapon? I thought there were regulations prohibiting those except for law enforcement and the military.
 
They said housekeeping had been in the room.

if you have the money, and get thru the red tape, you too can own one.

A: He had accomplices. This was no random event.

Stephen Paddock may have even been a total patsy.
housekeeping does not have a right to snoop through your stuff

That's kinda my point....What good does regulation do? Seems the only person with a fully auto weapon was the perp.

How pathetic that you think this passes for wit.

Seriously, the guy was in enfilade fire position. Time to find cover and flank or something.
 
Someone I know that served 3 tours on the ground, and heard the shots said 2 weapons were going at once, a 30 and 100 drum. Said it is impossible to fire both those at the same time.

. Yes, the weapon was modified to go full auto it appears... Could hear it during the rapid shots being fired in succession like that. Wonder what type of weapon he was using that was full auto like that ? Hmmm. Sounded like a Huey flying over head.
