If you think 5.56 is going to penetrate steel shell storage tanks that are anywhere from 1/4 inch to 1/2 inch thick at over 600 yards and cause a massive explosion of jet fuel-a product that has an extremely low RVP (less than half a pound, vapor for you non industry folks) and a flash point of around 110, then you watch too many Michael Bay flicks.

Nada. LE officials aren’t giving out any information about the investigation outside of a few broad details about the police response at the hotel.

Because I know some times and places they've found him on security cameras. I was cautioned, smartly, yesterday to stop divulging some information in here. But I can still give broad answers.

Negative. And from what the sheriff and FBI were saying it sounds like it'll probably be a while

Would it explode if tannerite was placed on the outside of the tank and he shot it? I'm not saying he did that...just curious.

It's pretty somber and everybody is still trying to get info just like everybody in this thread. But most of the deceased are tourists so most people that live here weren't effected. I only know one person personally who lost someone and only had 1 friend at the concert. I talked to her for the first time today and she's still obviously freaked out. She had just left her friends who were front row stage left when it all started.

Probably, if it was enough.

But

I've said it twice already and keep getting ignored. People ran to hide in a building near those tanks, actually tore down the fence to get in there. He was probably firing at them and hit the tanks, or was firing at the tanks hoping to take them all out in one fell swoop.

Sure, any explosive would probably compromise 1/2 of steel holding back a few thousand barrels of hydrocarbons.

Does anyone know if Paddock's ex-wives are still alive? It would be interesting hearing from them if they ever speak publicly.

I've heard he had two ex-wives but the sheriff today pretty specifically stated they spoke with his ex-wife (very clearly was singular) and she knew nothing
