re: The "Bystander Effect" is getting us killed.

Okay but the guy can't point a gun at 300+ people at the same time. Again, I know it's incredibly different to actually be in the situation and I can completely understand why many would run and hide, but he did have to reload, he couldn't look 360 degrees at once, shite throw some bottles at him.

I have a feeling he knew his way around the joint and probably wasn't standing in the middle of the dance floor surrounded by people. He was probably posted with his back in a corner and maybe even with some sort of cover as well. He was probably up higher than them too, and in a spot where there was probably bottle neck effect of people.

I understand asking this question...but come on...50 people were killed, and many more were injured. The guy had a good plan and apparently executed it very well. I don't think we know exactly what took place but I bet that it was not a very easy situation to figure out if you were a victim.
