    Do we know this guy was muslim and doing this for allah, or was he just a fucking crazy bastard? I'm in Mexico (stoopid job) and all the TV is in spanish...stoopid Sheraton.

    ISIS took responsibility.
    I really wish I could have blown up more of them.

    Just found BBC News on the TV, I think it's the only english channel I have, and they were just saying LVPD just said it was not terror related?
    I read earlier that ISIS claimed responsibility and had threatened a Las Vegas attack, so this is really weird. Not as expected.

    Yeah when I first saw the thread here I just sort of assumed it was some religion of peacer. But turns out it was a Timothy McVeigh/Unabomber type loser (it appears). Will be interesting to see what this guy's "issue" was in the coming days.

    It would be wrong to politicize this tragedy by discussing the relationship between easy access to firearms and mass shootings in the United States.

    Guns kill people, people don't kill people POTD.
    Just think of how many people this asshole could have killed by hurling knives and ninja stars from his hotel balcony instead of spraying the crowd with rifle fire.
    It's always take away 2nd amendment rights with the left. 2nd amendment exists for a reason.

    At least they killed the piece of shit, no trial, no waiting for justice or an execution that will never happen, and no taxpayer money wasted on keeping trash like that alive.

    I am just wondering what the motivator was at this point...recent muslim convert as old white guy? Racist? Anti NWO nut job? Antifa loser who wanted to kill rednecks at a country concert? Pissed off gay guy who hates Trump? Pissed off Trump supporter who hates gays? Or maybe just some mentally deranged lunatic who didn't have a cause but wanted to kill people?

    Maybe the loser lost all his money gambling and decided to take it out on the world.

    The Brady Bill needs to come back and not have a time limit.

    I loved how they reported that it isn't terrorism or linked to terrorism. Only brown people can be terrorists. If you tell white people that white people are terrorists you can't sell them fear anymore.

    Who da fuck knows. Charles Whitman type? But wifey I'd a "person of interest."

    Also, OBK, I like guns and am probably a better shot and know much more about them than you do.

    Regulation to ensure public safety of a dangerous instrumentality =\= confiscation.

    I'm fucking tired of mass murders happening every time some whack job gets it in his head to blow people away. It's fucking preventable terrorism.

    Who knows at this point. Some will say oh he was targeting a country concert (country fans = mostly conservative) so he was a liberal nutjob...but I'm guessing it could have been any artist, and this concert was selected more for the open air venue than the performers...but I have no fucking clue and am mostly speaking out my ass because there is no Backpage in Monterrey so I can't get a hooker on order and going out into town to find one seems about as smart as skipping through downtown Detroit in a KKK outfit. Monterrey looks shady as fuck. Dirty too. Neat mountains though. And cartels.

    Red light districts in Mexico are usually locked down pretty tight by the cartels and mafia, so once there you're safe unless you act like an asshole. So don't do that. Hotel front desk people and taxi drivers are good sources of info. Be careful with taxis though. Unlicensed cabs in the DF have been linked to kidnappings and murders. You're in the deep end of the pool now, ese.

    Because he wasn't Muslim doesn't have anything to do with whether this was "terror related".

    HTH

    Dumbass I know that. I was reporting what a news report said, which was "THE LVPD is reporting this is not terror related." Maybe it turns out it is terror related - Tim McVeigh style. But that's what they said a couple hours ago. Stop looking for any reason to get a dig in fucker.

    This is absolutely terrorism. Remains to be seen whether or not it was political in nature.

    It's terrorism, a once in a blue moon McVeigh type of event apparently, but Islamic terrorism is the primary problem in the world today. Because he's white, the left wing media will push the white supremacist narrative and try to blame Trump somehow.

    Maybe, but you can't deny most terrorism ends up being Islamic in nature.

    No gun laws would have stopped this as he obviously had illegal automatic weapons. Curious to see how the media spins it. I hate when they make political statements out of dead people. They will blame someone or something.

    Brother of killer interviewed and he said that he knew of no religious or political affiliations his brother had. Guy was a fucking retirement community apartment complex manager for christ sakes. Maybe he did really just fucking snap...

    "A young woman told a local NBC affiliate that another young woman told a group of people in the concert they were going to “die tonight” before supposedly being escorted from the conference roughly 45 minutes before the shooting happened."
