The fact that this chode could build a stand to shoot from inside of a hotel room is crazy.

People keep talking about guns and ammo being brought to the room, but how did he get the supplies to build his stand up there?

Yeah, I thought about this, but hell, I'm guessing housekeepers love a perpetual 'Do not Disturb' hanger on the door of a hotel room. In a place like Vegas, it's probably not unusual at all.

Confused about the belt fed speculation, is that true? I heard he just used normal semi-autos with a hand crank device? Anyone know ?

I've been waiting for this. I mean he was in a Vegas hotel for crying out loud. Cameras all over the place. Will be interesting to see this footage.

Does Las Vegas not have a sniper available for situations like this?

If true, that's some heavy arse planning by someone. Was this guy capable of all this military type tactics? His history just doesn't support it imo.



You don't NEED military training. How many gun and or military enthusiasts do each of you know? I know 2. 2 guys who I know personally that if they lost a couple screws or got pissed enough, had the knowledge and capability. One guy is a Facebook warrior. SUPER republican. Everything he says was anti Hillary and pics of guns. We drank beer through college and chased trim.

All the knowledge is there to get if you look. Tons of YouTube vids on how to do a lot of shite. Tons of other websites.

I read someone on a news discussion site posting that they regularly travel to this hotel for various conventions. People set up booths at these places. It's not at all unusual to see giant loads of gear unloaded and many times taken up to rooms. He said he does it all the time, and it's very common to see big bags and storage boxes of gear.

Take that fwiw.

I have stayed there and attended conventions there...it has huge convention space...I mean enormous...so yeah, a guy rolling big cases in and out wouldn't attract any attention

Possibly, but what about housekeeping? Did he just keep the maids away? T


You just put the do not disturb sign on the door...

The same way.

Like I said.

Put me in a hotel room for a week. Tell me to build that shite and you'll give me $10,000.

I'll start spending that money immediately cause that shite's easy.

Hell. An airline hard case for golf clubs would be all I'd need.

What bothers me often times is a relative, friend or lover has prior knowledge of something going down and says nothing.

I don't think it's odd at all he was able to get all that stuff in his room undetected.

Vegas is the convention capital of the world. It's not unusual for people to pack all kinds of shite in their rooms, from display stands to golf clubs.

I could bring in a dozen rifles in one airplane golf bag.

I literally do this every time I'm in a hotel.

I ALWAYS put out the "no service" tag.

Haven't been reported yet.

Yep. It's like some people have never stayed in a hotel before.
