<O>

Why ? :o

Ever listened to country music??

Firearms stocks are on the rise.

Like in the Devil is just one angel too :yep:

Now it's up to fifty (50) dead

Now over 400 wounded.

Having watched video of the attack, this is absolutely awful. Definitely without a doubt an automatic weapon. I'm interested in seeing how the media will react to it. 64 year old white male using a weapon that is already illegal without lots and lots of paperwork and licensing. No clear motive it looks like.

Unfortunately it was an easy target for the gunman. The CNN article put it "shooting fish in a barrel" :(

Keeping my guess close but it starts with an I and ends with d-e-o-l-o-g-I-c-a-l-e-x-t-r-e-m-i-s-t-f-r-e-a-k.

Plenty of lose bolts or plenty of hate. To keep the trigger pulled back and keep on firing while they drop left and right by the hundreds, and keep doing so for 20 minutes - that needs plenty of energy to maintain, that is not just one lose moment in time when your brain cuts short over a furious sentiment and for some seconds your mind says goodbye and when you are back to your sense you see that you have killed two or three guys in the past seconds.

Pushing such an effort for as long like this, needs energy coming from something really deep rooting. Maybe the abyss he stared into, started to stare back. Maybe one should better not want to touch upon a dark soul like this one. Sometimes profilers say they often make the experience with really bad suibjects that some of their evil somewhat echoes on and on in their own minds, and it sticks to them. I briefly knew one such guy once, he was with the BKA and helped hunting down sexual perverts and rapists. He quit early, both policework and psychology. He became alternative farmer and called that life his necessary therapy - and self-quarantine. He really had lost his balance.

How do you sneak 10 guns and all of that ammunition into a hotel? They said you can just carry it in :o

In fact he had more than ten guns, but yet the firing was only for 4 and 1/2 minutes ... make no mistake this was premeditated.

You know the anti-gun people are going to howl over this one. :yep:

4.5 minutes? Over here it was reported the firing went on for 20 minutes.

ABC and GMA said 4 and 1/2 minutes, but witnesses say 10 minutes.

The shooting started while performer Jason Aldean was onstage. Witnesses described a chaotic scene of back-to-back bullets raining down from above, lasting for up to 10 minutes.

What I don't understand is why it took 3 hours to find out that the shooter was dead.
