I agree. If this wasn’t a domestic lone wolf, I think this will be the final straw. As it should be.

I was no shite playing battlefield 1 while watching the news on the other TV and it sounded eerily similar.

If only 2 people died, that would be unbelievable.

If this was one shooter, it's a guy who knows how to handle a fricking weapon. I'm just not convinced.

I feel like in war I could imagine or possibly do it, but in a civilian situation I'd be fricked.

There is no chance only two people are dead I feel like.
I mean I hope that is true regarding the circumstances, but I just can't see that.

Vegas hotels would be a perfect spot to fire from above. It would take a while to find them and the right room.
That was one long stretch of gunfire.
Think of checking in at a Vegas hotel. Who looks in your bag? Large rolling pieces of luggage. You military guys on here think of what you could disassemble and put in a full sized suitcase or huge duffel bag.
Jason Aldean was apparently on stage during shooting. Just an observation. Not trying to say anything smartass about him. Just an apparent fact, and no time for a smartass comment.

While a ton of rounds were let out, it was only what, 3 or 4 mags? It's conceivable that one person could have done this.
3-4 mags would be 90-120 rounds. It sounds like casualty figures are in the ballpark of 100. Assuming that number of casualties is accurate, it had to be more rounds than that.
He either had drum mags or he had extended magazines with greater than 30 rd capacity. 30 rounds is done in a jiffy on full auto.

I just finished watching that video I posted... there's no way. There's a lot more.

I know several cops and combat vets who would run in there without hesitation. It's a different breed. They're not afraid of death.
Go watch videos of the Aurora police recounting the theater shooting several years ago. They went in not knowing a damn thing and ran directly into the theater.

I've never been in a Vegas hotel room that has windows that open to the outside.
Did he knock a window out? What's the deal?

Had to have. I've never seen one that opened either.

Likely shot the windows out as he opened fire
