Rock & Roll Hall of Game Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 (edited) Living in a world we did not make64 year old Stephen Paddock went on a shooting spree from his hotel room, down over a crowd celebrating Route 91 Harvest Festival with an attendance of 30k peoplePolice found numerous of guns in his 32nd floor hotel room but he killed himself before police could get to him. This is the biggest mass shooting in America to date, beating out the domestic terrorist attack in June 2016 at Pulse Nightclub in Florida Edited October 2, 2017 by State of the Game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amy Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 Two words Gun Control. At first I didn't know what to say in response to this attack, it seems as if no matter what the greater public feel about these terror attacks we are helpless to them happening. But living in a country that has had gun control for several years it seems obvious that if you make less easy for people to have weapons then you lessen the probability of these attacks happening. Sure we have guns on the black market here and people do get shot but we don't have attacks on the scale that America has. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rock & Roll Hall of Game Posted October 2, 2017 Author Share Posted October 2, 2017 Gun control in this country is easiler said than done. Sensible gun control (deeper background checks and not giving a gun to any Tom dick and sally) would be efficient but Americans rather give their “thoughts and prayers” than actual do something about it 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is a White American. Stop playing with us.Be careful of fake news posts and shit on internet especially now.Just today Facebook turned over their evidence to congress on the Russian bought ads. They were even doing it for the NFL protests trying to stoke division. If reputable news outlets aren't reporting it then I take it with a grain of salt. That said this is absolutely horrible. My mom has been to Vegas many many times and been to several shows at mandelay Bay. All those people just wanting to see a show enjoy themselves now targeted for terror. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kidfresh832 Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 Lots of talk about the shooter. But I like this article talking about who some of the victims are. What We Know About The Las Vegas Shooting VictimsThe deadliest mass shooting in modern American history took place on Sunday, when a gunman opened fire at the Route 91 Harvest Festival in Las Vegas. At least 50 people were killed and over 500 wounded. The suspect, Stephen Paddock, was later found dead in his hotel room.This is what we know about the victims whose names have been released.Huffpost Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
