Every time a tragedy like this happens, I've trained myself by now to wait a while before expecting to find out what really happened. The media nowadays seems like they're in a rush to see who can report wrong info first.

First, this guy was reportedly firing shots from a "hotel room balcony." Most of us here probably already know Vegas doesn't have balconies in the vast majority of their hotel rooms, so I'm thinking "here we go again, more bullshit." Then his female accomplice was supposedly involved, but that doesn't appear to be the case anymore. ISIS claims responsibility, and the investigators so far have claimed there is no evidence of that. Prepare to wait a while before an accurate picture emerges.

I've always wondered why Vegas isn't more of a target for this kind of shit. It's unfortunately the perfect spot...always crowded, people packing casinos, restaurants and shops. I'd imagine if some shithead group of terrorists brought bombs to multiple floors of the same hotel and set them off at the same time, that could be enough to bring down one of those places entirely.

Anyway, fuck this miserable POS for doing this. May he rot in hell for eternity...along with everyone else who is trying to use this tragedy to score political points in their favor.

Country music star Jason Aldean was performing on stage at the Route 91 Harvest Music Festival when lone gunman Stephen Paddock, 64, opened fire on the 22,000 people gathered.

About 10pm: Paddock smashes out two windows on the 32nd floor with a hammer-like implement and opens fire with his arsenal of at least 19 weapons - including fully automatic weapons.

10.08pm: First phone call to police that shots had been fired at the festival outside the Mandalay Bay Hotel and Casino on the Las Vegas Strip.

10.38pm: Police in Las Vegas say that they are 'investigating reports of an active shooter' near to the Mandalay Bay.

11.08pm: Las Vegas police confirm they have shut down a portion of The Strip

11.20pm: SWAT teams storm the 32nd floor room that Stephen Paddock was firing from. They gained entry using flashbangs designed to stun the shooter. Officers entered the room and found he had taken his own life. Seventy-two minutes elapsed from the first 911 call to Paddock being found dead.

1.34am: At this point the death toll dramatic rises to 20 people injured and 100 injured.

1.54am: Police in Las Vegas says that two of their officers who were off-duty were among the dead.

2.13am: Investigators say that they are looking for the 'roommate' of the shooter - Marilou Danley and describe her as a person of interest.

3.30am: Las Vegas Sheriff Joseph Lombardo announces that the death toll is now at least 50 dead and 200 injured - making this the deadliest shooting in US history

6.30am: Investigators say they have located Marilou Danley and say that she is overseas and is not longer a person of interest.

9.30am: Sheriff provides another update and says that the death toll is now in excess of 58 and that 515 people are injured.

And remember I'm a law and order guy and I would put people to death for committing armed robbery so I don't take crime lightly. I'm heartbroken for all of the people involved here.

Whatever. Don't act like everytime something like this happens.....the Kenny Bs of the forum aren't saying Isis right away. Happens in every thread.

I called that san bernandino attack because it was a targeted group. This was a random attack in Vegas.

Only laughing I was doing was at directed at the reactions of this thread were. If it was Isis related.....there would be so much hate in here. But when it was announced what he looked like, the hate stopped. There wasn't any "that crazy old psycho bastard." Nothing. But if it was a muslim, the shit wouldn't stop in here. Just making an observation, that's all.
