Not a single mention of guns in Trump's televised statement. Told you all to pray instead.
Good luck with that.

Brother says he had no political affiliation to any party. Although watching that interview it doesn't exactly sound like they were in close contact, so I doubt he knows where his head was at tbh.
I seriously doubt this guy Stephen Paddock acted alone.
Paddock had no criminal record and lived a quiet life.
Someone else planned this attack and helped buy the more than 10 automatic weapons used in this terrorist attack.
Las Vegas gunman Stephen Paddock enjoyed gambling, country music, lived quiet life before massacre

Gun stocks are soaring after the deadliest mass shooting in modern US history

:yes
P.S. Before you bash me over this post, as demonstrated by our majority party elected officials who champion free markets and individual rights at the expense of a more balanced political perspective, it's 100% American to figure out how to profit from tragedies, right?

Gambling and country music are mortal sins when it comes to ISIS ideology. The Islamic angle makes no sense.
And why would he need help in stockpiling guns?

Based on clues I'm gathering, I suspect he sold his house and tried to become a professional gambler with his outrage growing as he failed, his losses mounted, & his life savings shrank.
His ego couldn't handle the crushing reality of his retirement savings disappearing, and this awful shooting is the end result of his angry ego-driven despair.

Updated to 58 dead, 515 (!!) injured.
And I'm sure it's just a coincidence that two other lone wolf ISIS terrorist attacks were made on the same day in France and Canada.Quote:

lol @ silencing a full auto .50 cal.
What an attention whore
I'm going to be interested in how thoroughly Paddock's activity in Vegas and elsewhere can be tracked.
Hotel & casino surveillance cameras. Hotel room card access records. Throw in some GPS, phone & social media and you might have something out of a Jason Bourne movie.
I'll wager there are more cameras in Vegas than anywhere else on planet earth. How good are they? How far along is facial search? How good is the maintenance of these systems?
We will see

He filed a lawsuit against the Cosmopolitan in 2012. It was dismissed.

So not only are you still going with the whole ISIS thing. You are now saying it was a coordinated attack in 3 countries across two continents?
We are almost at Gordo levels of stupidity here.

And a side note, that was no 50 csl anyway. That sounded like 7.62
You mean the brown kids whose families we carpet bombed in Afghanistan & Iraq?Quote:

So I'm backing away from the left-wing fanatic theory from earlier, and I'm going with "Busto gambler who felt like he lost everything and wanted to take lots of others out before offing himself."
He does not have any hendonmob results, so he likely didn't play tournament poker.
He did brag at one point to have won $20,000 gambling online, but I'm now wondering if he was just a -EV casino game donk, and yet somehow imagined himself a professional gambler.

I'm hearing his mail order bride left the country and he went over the edge.

She was in the Philippines when this occurred. I haven't yet read reports that she had left him prior to this.
Also, mail order brides tend not to be 61.

Wouldnt the Browning be legal as well in Nevada? My point is that you arent silencing the type of gun he used.
Mail order bride was just Sonatine-speak. We understoodQuote:

Love lost - such a cost. I like the angle coupled with the gambling
wouldn't be America in 2017 if we didn't politicize everything from mass murder, to hurricane relief, to football...Quote:

Word, I was just demonstrating the logistic issues behind getting a 6' long full auto machine gun that weighs 130 lbs and fires rounds that weigh 4 ounces each into a Vegas hotel room.
And here's a video of his weapon equipped with a commercial silencer:

Semi-automatic guns are easily converted into fully automatic are they not?
Besides, semi-automatic is still a form of automatic weapon.

True . The crazy thing though is that if there was a gun show in town I could see you being able to put a 130 lb gun on the hotel bag cart , cover it, and get it up a room without blinking an eye. It would be so absurd that it probably be easier to pass through then a smaller gun
I also chuckle at politicians and other people who know nothing about weapons when they start talking about silencers and how evil they are. They clearly dont even know what a basic silencer actually accomplishes/doesn't accomplish.
100% of their knowledge comes from action movies. Really.
Im convinced a large number of those people would be severely disappointed if they suddenly went out and bought a silencer and tried to use it.
Yeah, exactly this. I've been to Vegas ~20 times. I truly feel at home there. I would never live there but it's just a special place for me.Quote:

The ONLY claim that ISIS was behind this has come from ISIS themselves. And those fuckers have a huge history in claiming attacks that had absolutely nothing to do with them.
Nobody but nobody in US authority is claiming it was Islamic related terror. Quite the opposite in fact.

Regarding the girst question....it depends, but whats your point?
Regarding your other comment - No it isnt. In the way any gun laws are written here and abroad, semi auto and auto are two DISTINCTLY different things

Point being that any firearm which enables a madman to shoot around 500 people should NOT be available to the public.
So ye, ban semi-auto weapons. Because it cost 58 innocent people their lives last night.
