Active shooter at Mandalay Bay

Dana Gardner, 52.....R.I.P.

When Bob Dutton became the San Bernardino County assessor-recorder-clerk, he knew a strong and experienced deputy would be essential to do the job.
Dana Gardner was just that person.
As the deputy recorder-county clerk, “she was one of my go-to people,” Dutton said. “If you needed advice or questions came up, she had the answer. She was my go-to person.”
Gardner, of Grand Terrace, had traveled to Las Vegas with one of her daughters to attend the Route 91 Harvest Festival. After Gardner was wounded in the gunfire unleashed on the crowd, the daughter rode with her in the ambulance to the trauma center.
The daughter, who was unharmed, contacted Dutton’s office and said she and her mother had become separated.
About 7:30 a.m. Monday, one of Dutton’s colleagues received the news. Gardner was dead.
“You never think it’s going to be someone you know until it is,” Dutton said.
San Bernardino was the site of the terrorist attack that left 14 dead and 22 wounded in 2015.
On Monday, getting through the day was particularly difficult because Dutton said they couldn't just close the clerk's office. Everyone kept working, he said, even after they got received the horrid news.

He had 10 suitcases.

That should have been a Red flag by the Hotel

I've stayed in Vegas for 13 days once, and still only had 3 suitcases and 2 carry ons ( that's for both the wife and I )
a friend of mine goes with the whole Family, including himself, his wife, mother in-law and two 20+ year olds, 5 people, less than 10 suitcases

That's what I've been saying. He got them up there somehow. Im sure elevators are on the low end of surveillance priority in a casino but it must have been an endless stream of suitcases for a guy who's staying by himself.

The Las Vegas Killer wired $100,000 to the Philippines just days before the shooting.

I agree. Wish everybody felt the same.

I think it'e safe to say that we all feel the same. Got to be a real cuckoo bird to think anything but.

 

[Michelangelo]

Hope this guy is burning in the deepest part of hell right now.

From that picture it looks like they gave him a good start.

so easy to go buy a gun in some States

as long as you don't have a record, just through the process like razor said

Go to a Gun Show and it's like Cash & Carry

Correct,the only legality here (I doubt he had a special license) is the fully automatic. But,hold the second sear back and file the pin down to a point,and bingo,you got one in a matter of minutes...sidenote: this is illegal and he'll,and I've never done it

 

[Mobdeeper7239]

Everyone does feel the same lol.
Not one person in this thread or anywhere on this planet has defended this guy. You're making it up.

I'm comparing this incident and this thread to prior one's. That's all.

That is why I am making it up because it is an assumption amd an observation. When that muslim shot up all those people in san bernandino.....my guess is it was all about how islam is fucked up and crazy. When the dude ran over those people in France. It was made a racial thing by people and the media.

But when this incident happens. There is no comparison in the level of HATE compared to if a muslim did it or a minority. The hate is amplified if a minority did it. That's what I noticed in the first 4 pages. Compared to those threads I mentioned. When this incident was the deadliest in a while.

Angela Gomez, 20.....R.I.P.

Angela Gomez was a Riverside native who left a lasting impact on her high school classmates and teachers.
She graduated from Riverside Polytechnic High School in 2015 and attended classes at Riverside Community College.
"Angie was a fun-loving, sweet young lady with a great sense of humor," her former cheer coach, Lupe Avila, said in an email. "Angie was a loyal friend who loved her family and will be forever missed by all those who knew her."
She challenged herself academically, enrolling in Advanced Placement classes, and "loved the stage" — she was involved in cheer, choir and the Riverside Children's Theatre, Avila said.

the video today released from a cabbies phone shoes the 4th floor light flickering, it also has great video. The timing and sounds are in no way instinct with one another. I have no clue what that light is, but my beliefs are there is no firearm being fired from the fourth floor outside with the info out right now

you are right, this has been debunked. The only questing is now is if you listen to the 18 minute cab video it sounds like different shooters from different locations. This could be different types of guns or when he was going from each side of the room to the different windows.....

Susan Smith, 53.....R.I.P.

For most students and visitors to Vista Fundamental Elementary School in Simi Valley, Susan Smith was usually the first person they would see when they walked into the school.
“She was the office manager, which means she was the hub of the school. She was the center of it. Everyone who came through those doors she knew. She knew the children, she knew the staff, she knew the parents,” said Jake Finch, a spokeswoman for the Simi Valley Unified School District.
She was married with children, but Finch did not have details about the family. Smith had worked for the district for 16 years.
“She was great with the children, patient and kind. Her loss is huge to us,” Finch said.
Finch said administrators learned about Smith’s death overnight, and mobilized their crisis counseling team. Substitutes were brought in to staff every classroom at Vista so that the teachers could be gathered and told about Smith’s death. Counselors went to every classroom and told the children in an age-appropriate manner.

If I want to buy 200 of those guns I'm legally allowed to?

of course there's cameras in the elevators, also on most or all Floors

No way did someone Not see him bringing in those bags

Checking guest baggage at a hotel would create an enormous new problem. And I doubt this guy brought them all up at once with him. Maybe the most efficient thing to do would be setting up TSA-like scanners near the elevators, but then every single bag would need to be scanned...and you’d have a lot of crabby people waiting to get to their elevators.

Is it even legal to carry firearms into a hotel? I don’t know, I suppose it would depend on the state and property.
