That said, there are some people in at least one video just standing around while shots are being fired with cover right in front of them. Those people were stupid beyond belief.
It's possibly they were zombie level drunk or fricked up on something and really weren't aware of what was happening.

CBS didn't say that. An employee did and was fired for it.

True. The problem is that's how these east coast elite liberal douchenozzles think. And they just so happen to run the major news organizations so information is disseminated through that fricked up filter.

On the same note, here's what a real live person on my Facebook feed thought about the matter:

quote: ive been shaking and nauseated since i woke up and i have this feeling of wanting to go home to somewhere safe but i cant think of a single place where that is true anymore, this country is not safe for anyone, but especially not for POC, LGBTQ*, women, marginalized groups of any kind, but especially not for those at the intersection of any of those identities frick this frick guns frick white supremacy frick the patriarchy. it's all tied together and held up by many things, but particularly quietly and insidiously by the privileged who refuse to acknowledge the problem, who prioritize their own comfort rather than calling out bigoted family/friends/acquaintances. you are complicit in this. i am tired and hurting from this world and to all my friends who feel the same, i love you and i see you and i hold you a little closer today and all days

people are narcissistic pieces of shite who have lost the ability to shut up for a second and express sorrow


wow. what an absolutely terrible, delusional, and disgusting human being to post ignorant filth like that. like you said, a narcissistic piece of shite.

He could have used something like this also.


I think that's exactly what he used given the variation of frequency of fire.

What I meant though, was how did he not fire more? There only appears to be 3 or 4 different periods of shooting and he had 11 to 15 guns ready to go.

You said you're trying to figure out how.

What parts of the how are you not understanding? Guy with lots of guns on the 32nd floor.

The how is the easiest part of all of this.

What is the time frame? I honestly don't know? I thought it was like 30 minutes?

He may have needed to switch guns on the tripods? Or change drums? Those can be a pita?

The security guard supposedly was shot checking on the fire alarm going off? So that explains some time?

500 shots is still a lot. I agree it could have been worse if that's all it was. But if there was 500 people shot, even with ricochets, double hits, pass throughs, etc. than i'd say its much more likely he shot well over 1,000 rounds.

I was wondering what he did based on that previous article about his multiple homes, leaving town for months at a time, etc. I feel like his source of income was nefarious or illicit in some way hence his brother beating around the bush.

I heard it was more than an hour from time of first gunshots to the SWAT breaching his room.

Witness accounts was that it was between 5 to 15 minutes of gunfire.

It is hard to determine how many times he shot, stopped and shot again with only seeing bits and pieces of videos.

I'm sure it's already been mentioned in this thread, but Dan Bilzerian was at the concert. His Instagram story is fricking WILD.

Were 500 actually shot or is that just the number of overall injuries?

The real problem is the divide in this country.

You generalizing all liberals in the same way that they make blanket statements that everyone in the south is a dumb redneck stuck in the previous century.

Then a situation like this happens, which shouldn't be political at all - and everyone is looking for an opportunity for the left or right to look bad, or even simply a member of the left or right to look bad so that they can extrapolate that onto their feelings for the entire opposite party. Just confirmation bias to further divide each other from a common middle ground where we can make progress.

Not the point of this thread, but anyway.

I think that is overall injuries. I've seen people suggest that many of the injuries were people being trampled in the chaos.
