True... but I'd rather speculate now and not worry about the facts that come out later

Have they said what caliber he was using yet?



I thought I heard it reported as .223 and .308. Both common for AR platforms.

Crap argument. Our forefathers didn't consider the damage that an 18 wheeler could do to a crowd, or the power of the internet, either. Nobody is suggesting the 1st Amendment needs modified or abolished.

Its only a crap argument if you accept that this problem is not fixable. People are not going to give up their guns and insanity isn't going to decrease. If you have a solution, I'd like to hear it. Just accept that this is who we are as a nation.

You are free to put a loaded gun on your coffee table in front of your 2 year old, which we both agree is irresponsible and wreckless behavior. But a 2 year old cannot go into a store and buy guns. A crazy person can and apparently does it daily. We do not have a solution for this. I'm ok with the status quo,however because it is what happens in a free country and we're too far down the road in terms of gun ownership.

And then you infer that it is, in fact, not fixable. So you agree with me, that it is a crap argument.

He switched windows, most likely to throw the police off and act like two different shooters. That easily explains any pauses.


Have there been any reports of people who either saw the Windows being broken or one of the Windows broken prior to the start of the shooting? Wondering if anybody happened to see the Windows being broken or noticed a single broken window. Not that it matters, but you'd think it would take a few seconds to smash one, then move to the other one to smash it out. With over 22k people below, seems like someone might have seen them broken out just before the shooting started, or did he break one and shoot them move to the other and break it and start shooing again?

And yet another who claims to support the 2A while trying to arbitrarily set a limit.

What pray tell is the limit of guns for a hotel room?

I bet I have exceeded that during moves. Should there be a special permitting process for guns over your amount in a hotel room so if someone who has a good collection is moving they can apply?

You missed the entire premise of the thread. It was more about what could one man do with 23 weapons, knowing what was apparently planned. If you read all of this, and still feel the need to attack me on bullshite grounds, knock yourself out. You're barking up the wrong tree.
