Im sure the terrorists will be a Rag head screaming alaakbar or a anti Trump snowflake antifa type that thought shooting up a Country Music concert would help their commie cause . Either way they were put down by the Thin Blue Line .
 
Now 20 dead, including two cops plus 100 minimum, shooter dead, hundreds of full auto rounds fired from 34th floor into crowd, Feds say it was a local guy and they are looking for his wife.

Initial reports unconfirmed say its a local American shooter.
TV footage appears to reveal much full automatic fire, I'm estimating way over 100 rounds fired.

Media now reporting 50 dead, gunman is named as American Steven Paddock

The Shooters partner is an employee at mandalay Bay casino and is a former cop, Feds desperately trying to find her.

Nevada has some of the least stringent gun laws in the United States.

People are allowed to carry weapons and do not have to register themselves as a gun-owner.

Background checks are done when people buy guns, but they are also allowed to sell them privately.

The state does not ban assault weapons, which are automatic or semi-automatic firearms, and there are no limits on buying ammunition there.

Wife was supposed to visit Vegas against next month with a 100 of her fellow Osmond fans, I'm stopping that right now. I'm progun ownership but lately the US is getting even more F888ed up than Europe I just read about how a citizen wearing a MAGA bb cap was savagely beaten by a bunch of Democrat thugs.

So much for European and Brit tourists going to the US as a safer option than Egypt !!!

Yes agreed but we used to say MUSLIM crazies, but now its American crazies who are just making sure that Vegas is now as off limits as FLA
 
I'm not trying to start a pro or anti gun debate but I do wonder how many innocent dead will occur before our American cousins at least start to look at making their wonderful country safer. UK media reports over 889 totally innocent deaths in 133 mass shootings in the US since 66. I do know that even if todays victims had numbered 1000 children NOTHING would currently change.

UK media now reporting this is Americas worst mass shooting todate.

now don't go off trying to put this off on gun owners,,,,,,this is some old fart who went over the edge,,,all gun owners are not crazy and should not be mentioned in the same breath as one of the lunatics who start shooting for no good reason


it pisses me off when someone does it

I find this post kind of odd,,,seeing as how it is not safe anywhere in the UK or Europe any longer,I would no more consider visiting over there than I would step off into a raging fire,,,,so you folks can stay over there and I will stay here where at least if some clown takes a shot at me I can shoot back

Now Now old friend you know darn well that the UKs murder rate is a fraction of Americas, You chaps lose over 10,000 citizens a year, we lose only a few dozen to gun and knives. But YES as an individual armed citizen walking on an American street your armed citizen is generally safer than an unarmed Brit walking in a Brit city.

But Mon Ami it WAS an American Gun Owner ?? thats simply an undeniable fact, and if he was crazy it still does not affect the fact that in Nevada he can buy as many guns and ammo as he likes. Until he started shooting he WAS just another American gun owner ? And remember I am a PRO gun dude with a paid up NRA membership. BUT when sensless massacres like this happen we must have a sensible debate to see if there is anything more can be done.

well your rates will only rise with all the Muslims that have been allowed into your country,,,,you would think with as much time as the UK has spent in the Middle East they would know how dangerous those people are and not allow them in,,,,,,,,,,,,,well the whole world is making that mistake,

AT LEAST TRUMP IS TRYING TO STOP THEIR INVASION OF THE USA

Amen to that my brother.

SO YOUR ANSWER IS PUNISH EVERYONE,,,,,,,,,,YOU GO AHEAD START YOUR DOOR TO DOOR SEARCH FOR GUNS AND SEE JUST WHAT THAT GETS YOUShoot
 
A sensible conversation must be had when massacres like this occur, When LESS people were butchered in Bosnia the US was demanding action be taken to try and prevent massacres, so it makes sense that everyone pauses, thinks and explores how if anything the US can TRY and prevent more massacres. It would be wrong and immoral to simply ignore this heartbreaking scenario repeating.

That is not at all what I said.

Have a nice day and stay safe there's gun toting Merkins out there :)
there are crazy people in this world,if they decide to go off and don't have a gun they will use whatever is handy,,,,,,,,you can kill with a common #2 pencil,one of the deadliest weapons you can make is a screwdriver sharpened to a point,,,hell you can kill some one with a simple hatpin and barely leave a mark,,,oh yeah a wrist rocket sling shot and 1/4 inch ball bearings is deadly

so if all the guns in the world were destroyed ,there would still be murders,,,,think about that one

I am out of here ,home around 5:00pm,,,,be safe if you can

Oh rest asured Mon ami I am safe, very safe indeed. Have a good one and make lots of money.
 
Wow.

Evil does not stay on it's side of the fence. What happened with the advertising lingo "What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas". Take a whole new meaning now.

It brings a whole new level of self-protection to mind. Sadly the only thing this will do is double down on the assault on gun ownership...

Prayers for all those affected.

Any Legal gun owner in the U.S. can make private sales of guns.....been that way for several hundred years.......

There is no such thing as an ( Assault ) weapon, ( Assault ) is an Act, anything can be used to ( Assault ) someone.....do you call knives ( Assault ) knives ? do you call cars ( Assault ) cars ?

Buying ammo is Legal, even if you could only buy so much at one time you could also reload which has basically zero control anywhere in the U.S. on buying components to do so.....

This is NOT a gun issue, an ammo issue or a Law issue......This is a Crazy issue....the people doing this are brainwashed weak minded crazy people.....you can't stop crazy....
