]ISIS claiming responsibility is why it's being discussed.[/B] I don't think questioning their involvement makes anyone a "jihadi jihadists". All my opinion.

SABBM

Agreed.
If ISIS has nothing to do with this tragedy-- and they themselves know they didn't -- curious why they'd try to claim some responsibility ?
Jealousy ? Wouldn't surprise me if some twisted minds out there are 'envious'.

A lot of sick people in this world ; and I don't think it's getting any better. :sick:

Wish I lived closer to NV ... I would like to donate blood.
58 precious souls cut down, because of one hate-filled individual !

All of those people probably had parents, siblings,other relatives,friends,coworkers ,etc.-- whose lives will never be the same.
Some of the survivors will never be able to go to another music event and will be traumatized for years to come. IMO

gitana1, I want to thank you for inadvertently providing me with a bit of a giggle at this typo. I just picturing his weapons being altered to smell like lavender.

Damn auto correct! A bit of levity I guess in the middle of the horror. Proves we are human. We try to find anything to light the darkness.

These are weapons intentionally designed to kill as many people as efficiently as possible. Why is anyone shocked this keeps happening?

Who is Marilou Danley, girlfriend of suspected Las Vegas shooter Stephen Paddock?

The girlfriend of the man accused in the deadly Las Vegas shooting has lived in Nevada since 2003, according to records obtained by the Reno Gazette-Journal from Washoe County District Court.

Friends of Marilou Danley, 62, say she is currently out of the country.

Danley had worked as a high limit hostess at the Atlantis Casino Resort and Spa,*according to her Linkedin profile. The Atlantis is expected to issue a statement some time today...*

Thanks. I was curious could it have been someone he had been hanging around with that he opened up to at some point? The girl they interviewed said she left after the woman was escorted out and heard the shots from her room.

People lining up to give blood.

I don't even know what the he77 the best course of action would be in this type of scenario. With a ground shooter flee or take cover as best as you can. Shooter from above at a distance......pray!

I think it's the same. Duck, cover and try to run.

 

[gitana1]

THIS is pathetic, disturbing and shameful.

Whether they are responsible or not, Isis often claims that they are responsible for recruitment purposes

Here's how he could have modified semi auto weapons into fully auto ones without bothering to get a permit:

Thank you, Brits!

Just wanted to say thanks for the thoughts and prayers. Our friend is in ICU she was shot in the head and they are unsure if she will pull through.

I get it. In fact, ISIS typically doesn't lie about something like this as much as they exaggerate according to one report. http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-...when-isis-claims-responsibility-for-an-attack

But it seems highly improbable that this guy converted. This may be one time they're claiming something they had nothing to do with. They may be getting desperate now. It seems their ability to be organzied may be fading.

Gunshots are very hard to determine where they are coming from and, if they are gunshots at all. Vegas is always having some sort of big function going on and fireworks would not be out of the realm of possibility. People in the area of gunfire often mistake it for something that it isn't.

Gunfire inside a building doesn’t sound like gunfire at the shooting range. I’ve participated in numerous active shooter training scenarios where I have been tasked with finding the “shooter” inside a large building. Even when the person playing the role of the shooter is firing full power blank cartridges, it is difficult to locate him inside a school or office building.

p
That is a weird graph the way it connects the dots of each incident. In between the incidents, the number would be 0. A bar graph would be more accurate.

But, yes, we have an ongoing problem. No doubt about that.

Oh my God no. I'm so sad to hear that. Praying for you and your friend. So horrible.

I'm so very sorry. My thoughts and prayers go out to her, you, and her family, as well as all of the victims there.
