exactly. I've seen people shot in the hip, the bullet ricochets off the hip bone and comes out through the collar bone

With all the chaos maybe they thought he was shot 3 times but maybe it was only once or twice.


They interviewed the guy that got shot 3 times at the hospital and aired it on the 6:00 NBC National News.

He could have been hit 3 times by shrapnel.

Can we stop with this 3 rounds debate? It's annoying as shite.

If I handed you a 249, placed you 400 yards away from a 14x14 target, and bet you $100 you couldn't hit the target 3 times with an unlimited number of bullets, you'd take that bet as fast as I could finish the challenge.

I'm in no rush here. And I know it's only been 24 hours. Things have been pretty hush with this one. It might not even be from the side of police. I might only feel this way because usually by now, I'd know what cologne this fricker wears to church.

And for the guy who pretty much says we don't need any footage at all, ever......that's just ridiculous. I want to see how he carried this out. I'm curious af.

None of the above bothers me after 24 hours. None of it.



His girlfriend has my ears perked up, though. I don't quite understand how what we know about her isn't garnering some SERIOUS attention from authorities. I'm talking sending the damn Marines to go get her arse.

That said, I have no clue of things like that work.

Not that hard with hundreds of rounds being fired into a group of people.

I saw this on Reddit. Could the shooter have used a hand crank drum mag like this? I know that’s a 10/22, but the rate of fire sounds pretty similar. SIAP

More interviews with the guy whose friend was shot 3 times. Does seem a little strange

I do agree with others in this thread that 3 shots center mass, when you are spraying does seem a little lucky

Man looking through the list and pictures of the victims is heartbreaking. The Daily Mail has brief descriptions of those who have been identified so far

The first of 59 dead and 527 injured are identified including a mechanic, 23, a 20-year-old student, a wife who died in her husband's arms and a heroic male nurse, 29, who saved his surgeon wife

We have no idea what kind of weapons this a-hole was firing and how accurate they were. I would think if he went through all this trouble he would have ranged his potential targets with trajectory and the guy who was shot 3 times could have been the first target. A high end AR can shoot .5 moa but more than likely it was a gun that had a 1.5 moa and that's a 6 inch group at 400 yards. Factor in the bump fire stock your groups will open up but your putting a serious amount of lead down range and can be on target, off target and back on target in a mater of a second or two. Also the guy could have been shot once standing and once on the ground while sweeping back over that area. I would bet most of the bullet wounds came within the first mag and the second mag dump.

I think these hotels should have sensors on the windows that alert if broken

Many think it's a real possibility.

Mostly because the rate of fire is very rapid, yet sounds like it changes just a bit throughout.
