Don't believe fake news. This is the timeline as released by the LVPD Sheriff.
The first officers arrived on the 31st floor -- one floor below where Paddock was firing -- at 10:12 p.m. Officers arrived at the 32nd floor at 10:17 p.m. Lombardo said it was "phenomenal" they reached the 32nd floor within 12 minutes of when shots rang out.

</header>[h=2]A Vermont newspaper called the Bennington Banner is facing outrage after running a cartoon of dead bodies in hopes of gun control conversation.[/h]The paper ran the cartoon on Tuesday—two days after the heinous attack on Las Vegas concert goers—and faced such backlash that it apologized the same day.
The Daily Mail reports that calls for Cartoonist Randall Enos and Editor Kevin Moran to resign were complimented by calls for an all-out boycott of the paper.
The cartoon shows a stack of bodies with the caption, “Whatever Happens in Vegas…” In apologizing for running the cartoon, Moran suggested it was commentary on the belief that the federal government will not use this opportunity to pass more gun control.
In an apology posted to Facebook, Moran wrote:
Another paper—the Telegraph Herald—posted the cartoon on its website as well. Amid backlash, Editor Steve Fisher and Executive Editor Amy Gilligan issued an apology, which said in part:

In an apology posted to Facebook, Moran wrote:
Our interpretation of Randall Enos’ cartoon was that little would be done with regard to gun control measures in the United States even after such an unprecedented tragedy. While we believe that is a conversation that needs to happen in this country, we must first mourn and honor the victims and provide comfort to their families and friends. We regret publishing the cartoon.
He noted that the choice to publish the cartoon was also bad because ill-timed—only two days removed from the attack—and because a nearby family had suffered loss in the attack. He wrote, “Our thoughts and prayers go out to the family and friends of Sandy Casey, originally from East Dorset, Vermont, who are enduring grief beyond compare today. We apologize to them and others affected.”
Another paper—the Telegraph Herald—posted the cartoon on its website as well. Amid backlash, Editor Steve Fisher and Executive Editor Amy Gilligan issued an apology, which said in part:
As publisher and executive editor of the Telegraph Herald, we want to address the cartoon that was posted on our website Monday morning and the subsequent statement by one of our editors.
In the past 48 hours, we have made two errors. The first was our error in judgment when we posted a syndicated editorial cartoon by Randall Enos where the intended message was unclear, and as a result, many felt it was insensitive and in very poor taste. Our second error was posting a statement that inadequately apologized for our decision.
Editorial cartoons are social commentary, and we never saw it as an attempt at humor. No one in our organization saw the events in Las Vegas as anything but utter tragedy. We are deeply sorry that it came across as anything less.

</header>[h=2]Documentary filmmaker and left-wing activist Michael Moore urged Congress to pass the 28th Amendment Wednesday, which would repeal and replace the Second Amendment.[/h]In a lengthy Facebook message, Moore said the new amendment would guarantee that “states can have State militias (a.k.a. State National Guards which are made up of citizen-soldiers who are called upon in times of natural disasters or other State emergencies).” It would also allow “individuals to use guns for sport and gathering food” and “guarantees everyone the right to be free of, and protected from, gun violence (i.e., the public’s safety comes ahead of an individual’s right to own and fire a gun).”
Moore proposed language for the new amendment:
Moore’s amendment would also require strict out-of-home storage requirements for guns. He wrote: “One’s guns must be stored at a licensed gun club or government-regulated gun storage facility. Believing that having a gun in your home provides you with protection is an American myth.”
Considering the process for amending the constitution — as explained in the National Archives — all Moore needs now is a two-thirds vote for his amendment in the House of Representatives and a two-thirds vote in the Senate. After that, he’d need to get 38 out of 50 states to support the repeal of the Second Amendment.

Moore proposed language for the new amendment:
A well regulated State National Guard, being helpful to the safety and security of a State in times of need, along with the strictly regulated right of the people to keep and bear a limited number of non-automatic Arms for sport and hunting, with respect to the primary right of all people to be free from gun violence, this shall not be infringed.
The Fahrenheit 9/11 director said the amendment would be implemented with conditions that include banning all “automatic and semiautomatic guns,” while simultaneously requiring that all guns be so-called smart guns — even though smart gun technology-to-date is largely integrated into semiautomatic pistols, which would be banned under the 28th Amendment.
Moore’s amendment would also require strict out-of-home storage requirements for guns. He wrote: “One’s guns must be stored at a licensed gun club or government-regulated gun storage facility. Believing that having a gun in your home provides you with protection is an American myth.”

No Man In all of World History accomplished becoming Less Relevant than this guy. Quite an accomplishment considering the Millions of Humans throughout World History that have evolved to Say Idiotic Jibberish, Utterly Meaningless Drivvle & Absolutely Moronic Shit. Solely to Get Attention.
Michael Moore topped them all. For Total Irrelevance. Who'd've thunk it? Fat Lazy Low-IQ having Kid from Flint......became More Embarrassingly Irrelevant, managed to Overstay any Welcome here to so much greater a degree than any other before him.
Listening To (locating "Value" in) ANYthing this Fat Embarrassing Zombie-Clown says should be used as an IQ Test: Anyone who can accomplish THAT = Genuinely Retarded.
#SO Tried of this Fat Loudmouth Clown #STFUFatBoy.

That whole line is a joke. Let me get this right: I own a gun or guns but I have to leave them at my gun club or better yet with the government.
HAHAHAHAHA that's a good one Michael.....
“One’s guns must be stored at a licensed gun club or government-regulated gun storage facility. Believing that having a gun in your home provides you with protection is an American myth.”
Okie dokie Michael. This guy is not worth the sperm his dad used to conceive him...
