I know what's wrong with our country when any punk troll can walk out and get a machine gun.

I know what's wrong with our country when any punk troll can walk out and get a machine gun. Actually, they can't. It's very hard to get a machine gun. Usually the closest you can get is buying a semi-auto and a conversion kit, but it's not quite the same. Plus it's unlikely that even a semi-auto was used given the lack of fatalities. It was probably some drunk guy who got into an altercation and used a handgun. --- (\/)(\/)|-| In Zeus We Trust: All Others Pay Cash ... Copied to Clipboard!

yeah a machine gun can run upwards of 10k to buy legally in this country from all i've heard. thats not all for the gun, its fees and shit for all the paperwork involved in obtaining a machine gun.

I actually knew the difference but I called it a machine gun anyway to see how many people would jump on me for calling it a machine gun and not a semi-automatic.

I think this may be the worst U.S. shooting-related incident yet. Yep. It is being called the deadliest mass shooting in U.S. history. There will be more than 50 dead when everything gets sorted out. There are also people who are injured who probably won't make it. 200+ injured. 50+ dead. --- I post on Yahoo. ... Copied to Clipboard!

First thing security did was totally lock down the strip and lock all the entrances to hotels/casinos so they were stuck out on the street while the shooter was still active, can't imagine how frightening that must have felt

This was a terrible... well, tragedy implies we didn't have control over it. But we chose to have our laws this way. Our lawmakers choose every day to allow this to keep happening.

I've read either 8 or 10 long rifles as reported by the local sheriff's department. I assume he carried them all in via suitcases. Zangulus posted... Truthfully, I don't think you can claim a guy who murders 50 and injures over 400 to be mentally sound, regardless of motive. Yeah it's depraved as all fuck by our society's standards. It's obviously abnormal.

Aaaaand queue people standing on graves to promote political agendas. This, this, THIS!!! I can't stand it (luckily there aren't a lot of people doing it now) BUT the gun debate will be brought up (already in this topic too) first off, idk if it was confirmed that he guy had an automatic; it seems like he did based on the speed of killing people. If he did, the law was already broken beforehand so the gun debate goes out the window This was something impossible to prepare for and that's what makes it so fuckin depressing.
