Shooting in las vegas

[Alexx1401]

That's EXACTLY freedom of speech. Freedom of speech means you're free to disrespect this country. It doesn't matter if you or I don't like it, they have the FREEDOM to do it.

Freedom of speech also means your employer is free to terminate you for doing it at work. It also means I am free to no longer buy anything the bosses who support this sell.

Get a load of this......

A top lawyer for CBS said she is "not even sympathetic" to victims of the Las Vegas shooting because "country music fans often are Republican," when discussing the tragic mass shooting that occurred in Las Vegas late Sunday night.

Hayley Geftman-Gold, the network's vice president and senior counsel, took to Facebook after a gunman opened fire at the Route 91 Harvest Music Festival in Las Vegas, killing at least 58 people and sending more than 500 others to hospitals.

"If they wouldn't do anything when children were murdered I have no hope that Repugs [sic] will ever do the right thing," Geftman-Gold wrote in a now-deleted message that was first reported and captured by The Daily Caller.

Geftman-Gold continued: "I'm actually not even sympathetic bc [sic] country music fans often are Republican gun toters [sic]."

She won't be the last lefty to post with comments like that.................. In fact, I expect hundreds more blaming the NRA and Republicans, while wishing death to the same.

No one has a right to a job........a job is at the pleasure of your employer......that is where it needs to be delt with

the sequence was not even---fast then a little slower and then back to a fast cadence. Could be a crank style as it is hard to maintain a steady revolution of the crank style since you are pushing and then pulling the crank through it's arc. I tried one on my 10-22 and that seems familiar. Watch CNN and eliminate their facts and go with the opposite.

I agree that it sounded like a Gat-crank as well. full auto does not speed up and slow down like that.

Trigger crank according to USA Today story.

Video shows first moment of Las Vegas shooting

Google Earth is showing somewhere around 375-400 yards to the center of the event center.

Would it even matter. Even at that range, having several thousand people in a small space and opening fire with several hundred rounds in a matter of minutes, God you wouldn't even need to aim.
Fish in a barrel.

I didn't see his until this morning and have been sick to my stomach since.
What a horrific tragedy.

You could demand answers and dig into why? But in the end it's just pure evil against peace. Nothing will make sense of it and nothing will change the lives lost, the families torn apart, and the aftermath of the horrir seen.

This is just extremely sad and unnerving.
Like many others I get infuriated by the political propaganda that is unleashed while the blood is still flowing.
F-ing vultures

Anything we write at this point is conjecture. The correct information will come out. The bottom line is the action is the result of some sort of insanity. Whatever caused it may or may not ever be known. Humans are like ants.....when large numbers live close together it creates more insanity as evidenced by places like Portland and Seattle.

Should have been but the owners were scared of the entitled millionaires who work for them. So they let this get wayyyyy out of hand. Now the owners are freaking out trying to figure out what to do. They are losing money and most of the spoiled little children causing this are too stupid to see what they are doing. I am kind of sad it happened but they lost me as a customer.

Fear is a poor motivation......frequently leads to fatalities.

 

[Alexx1401]

We need to allow her freedom of speech and shut of the funds to pay her wages........that is our right too.

If it is found she really did this her employer will terminate her. She will be wayyyyy too hot to handle. Liberals can get away with a LOT more than conservatives but, this will be a bridge too far even for the left. This is assuming she really did this. I often tell the younger people I work with to be VERY damn careful with social media. The stuff you put there never goes away and can come back to haunt you. Many younger people who have never been held accountable just barf up everything thinking it's fun. Years later it can ruin you for good jobs.

Just found out that one of my wife's coworkers was there! Her and her husband made it out safe and are just trying to deal with most tragic thing they have ever witnessed first hand.

glad they made it out! God was on their side

50 dead and 400 wounded? A 60 some year nut job from Vegas, shot up an outdoor country music festival from a window in a nearby hotel. Listening to the news clips and the sound. There was no doubt that it was automatic fire. WTH is wrong with people? But of course it will be the gun's fault and not the wack job behind them. He opened up on a crowd getting ready to watch a concert. Get ready for the gun grabbers to use this as an excuse to go after your personal collection.

Of Machine guns? I harder to get a full auto weapon than appears to be the case.

Events like this cause me to have no desire to be in a large crowd or a venue where there is no security...

This folks is the result of a seriously broken moral compass, we as a nation have a broken moral compass... The culmination of that broken moral compass coupled with the devaluation of human life, on full display last night in Las Vegas....

This is exactly why congress will not deregulate NFA items. How does a 64 year old snap like this with no history of wrongdoing?

If we don't figure out how to come together as a nation and stop letting people divide us for their own benefit everybody is going to be dealing with tragedies like this one. The people politicizing this event for their own agenda need to burn in hell, and don't keep us waiting!

Read some of the responses to this....
Internet shreds Fox News host after he whines 'could we just have a day' before we talk about guns

 

[Oya]

My heart goes out to the victims.. But Im saddened to think "guns" are going to be the only topic in the media for a while.

Get ready for another panic.
With this many victims, and with it being a white shooter.. You can bet your hat the media is just salivating all over this.

However, the few issues here are:
*Was it A full auto or was it a device that aided in rapid fire that he had put on or in his semi auto firearms. Was it a belt fed rifle in the video? Sounded WAY more than 100 rounds in one string of fire. Far too smooth to be a tac trigger or the new triggers on the market that fire both at the pull and release of the trigger.

*Are the rumors true that this was a radical liberal (as stated online) attacking a country festival that has (mostly) Trump supporters/conservatives..etc?

Anyhow.. Seeing how all this shakes out. I was confident this year would be a happy firearm and ammo buying year, Without panic, without politics.. Then this happens..

Do not politicize this. This is about a sicko who somehow got access to a machine gun. We've got to do a better job of preventing that.

You know that for a fact? Can you produce that said evidence so we can all see it?

 

[clearconscience]

With media these days we will have no actual facts or evidence until several days later. People like to post all the juice they get from the interwebs and the BS MSM puts out which is heresay > complete BS.
You want facts wait a week after the incident.
And you MIGHT get half the facts.

Yup, agreed... Dump the NFL, let them wallow in what they've created...

No you're right. This was a sane individual with a pop gun.My bad.

Amen... This is not about gun control, it's about division, each and every day we become further and further divided as Americans. If this nation is serious about stopping these incidents, then reach across the abyss, heal the divisions, restore us to One Nation, rather than splintered groups with their own interests and agendas...
