If the gf was in the Philippines, then who was the woman walking through the crowd 30-45 mins before the shooting talking about they were all going to die?

Could have been a random looney woman. Those people are seemingly at every major event. Also wouldn't surprise me if that story, which to my knowledge wasn't confirmed by anyone else at the concert, was completely fabricated.

I believe he owns a plane or two as well.

No clue what kind.

Jesus.

In that video you hear sirens and see emergency vehicles lined up, this started at least 10 minutes after the original attack.

They are commenting on people running and people "laying there", not sure if they are seeing dead bodies or people taking cover.

Then you hear another 200-300 rounds fired during the video.

Meaning this a-hole was firing for a good 10-20 minutes. He easily got off 1000 rounds by the time it was over.

Unreal.

I am not a maniac either but you don't want me to have a a high powered weapon. Why do you get them but nobody else does? So again, when are you turning yours in? We can't just take your word for it.

"The suspect was a licensed pilot, who owned 2 planes "
Thank God he didn't fill up with fuel and crash into the crowd.
He could have easily taken out 10-15,000+ people

Wouldn't that think kick like crazy letting out as many rounds in as he did in a row?

Figure he'd be shooting the ceiling in 3 seconds.

She already tweeted about the NRA. Like, REALLY soon after the shooting.

About fricking silencers of all thing, completely ignorant they're not like the movies/video games portray and are as loud as jackhammers. That wouldn't have saved almost anyone last night and in fact would have only gone against his cause since they would have melted with the amount of shots he was firing.

His license had lapsed for a while due to medical conditions, from what's being reported. Not sure he even still owned the planes.

I'd like to know how he kept people from entering the room to clean without being suspicious as hell about it.

3 days of, "no no, I'm good thanks. Yeah don't come in" seems a bit weird.

People who clean rooms crack he door all the damn time when I'm in a hotel room. Not to mention he was probably gone at times. And then building platforms and stuff. And had 10 suitcases.

He had rifles in suitcases. Not those pistols. Not sure why people are still worried about how he got stuff to the room. No one would bat an eye at a millionare bringing in tons of luggage and planning to stay a while. People go spend months at a time in Vegas because they can.

FYI I have a similar "pistol" with an AK body that shoots 9mm. It's fun to shoot but from that distance and height you couldn't hit the broadside of a barn with it.

It's like some of you people have only stayed at a motel 6 or something. That's very easy to do especially for only a few days.

Could be just a street person or Jesus freak. Vegas has those.
