Yeah, I just checked it. No idea how they got 1000m out of that. Maybe they mistook ft for m, but they were definitely saying 1000m around 6am

58 dead from 400 yards away from a guy with no formal training is insane.

No he wasn’t.


Did you listen to the video? He was full auto from that far away. He was certainly spraying into the crowd.

Note: By spraying we do not mean rambo firing from the hip. He was set up with 8 guns and some type of platform to aim from, from reports. We just mean he was not making precision shot attempts. Too far away with the way he was just holding the trigger down.

Wonder how many injuries are from the gunman vs from people fleeing and the havoc that ensued.

So sad.

He just meant conspiracy theories. Many of which are indeed based off of facts, so...

Trying to make sense of irrational behavior is a difficult thing to do man.

Right. It really is like fish in a barrel in a situation like that.

I have no idea how someone gets to this point. It's mind-boggling.

Do you mean he is insane? Or it's insane that he killed 58 people? I could teach my bug eyed girlfriend how to pull the trigger and aim in a general direction while resting the stock on a tripod. It was like shooting fish in a barrel. Aim and pull trigger, reload, repeat, and surprised he didn't kill WAYYYYY more than that. Almost no aiming required, into a gigantic herd of human bodies.
