But guitarist Caleb Keeter went further, describing the ordeal as a revelation.

“I’ve been a proponent of the [second] amendment my entire life,” he postedon Twitter. “Until the events of last night. I cannot express how wrong I was.”
Keeter said that members of the band’s crew have concealed handgun licenses, and legal firearms on the bus.

“They were useless. We couldn’t touch them for fear police might think that we were part of the massacre and shoot us. A small group (or one man) laid waste to a city with dedicated, fearless police officers desperately trying to help, because of access to an insane amount of firepower. Enough is enough.”
So about that notion that a good guy with a gun stops a bad guy with a gun. If the bad guy plans ahead the good guy's guns can be rendered useless by a) position (behind cover 1500' away, 32 stories up) or b) fear of being shot by cops (which happened in Dallas when all the open-carry guys immediately dropped their guns and ran away out of fear of getting shot by cops). Usually b.

Seems like a perfect set of circumstances have to happen for a regular citizen to stop or mitigate a mass shooting. Has to be a) no cops around yet, b) more or less stationary shooter approachable from some angle or reloading, c) regular citizen who has the nerve to risk their life in the moment and take a shot at a heavily armed assailant when it's rarely clear there's only one. Obviously ex-police or military is a different story.

Let's see, we had that massive earthquake in Mexico, hurricanes in Texas, Florida, Puerto Rico, massacre in Las Vegas, heck in Edmonton the other day there was a lone terrorist attack where some dude hit an officer stabbed him and hit 4 pedestrians with a Uhaul truck.

WTF man? This world is ****ed up! If Religion and the good Lord are true, my question to the Lord is why? If you are a creator of all things, why did you decide to place in a pile of sh*t, where there is corruption of humanity, natural disasters and so forth and NOT do a damn thing to fix it all?!?! We keep hearing thy kingdom come and I'm still waiting.

With each passing day, I hate life more because of all the evil in it and I'm losing faith in humanity and God. Okay no hijacking of threads here. Just wanted to let this out! Have a good day everybody.

Crime is down. Less corruption overall in the world. I feel like people are KINDER in person more than ever. Online, different story.

God didn't make robots, he also doesn't approve of this. Not sure where you're getting this info at least my bible militates against violence.

Can't. Also there's all kinds of political content railing on that CBS lawyer.

Reports coming out that the guy had money. Made some in real estate. Was considered a high roller in the Vegas casinos. Lost $30k over the weekend.

Yeah I was reading in one article the guy was a millionaire, but who knows? There is so much BS floating around out there it's hard to say.

I'll be curious to see if any surveillance videos show him doing anything suspicious over the course of the 4 days he was there.

Any word on how he was able to shoot out a window without first breaking it first? And if he broke it out wouldn't that call attention to something going on with glass plummeting down from above first before he could get his gun and shoot?

I've never seen a hotel window in Vegas you can just open and close they are just solid windows.

He used a hammer-like device to break the windows.

The "trend" you're observing is probably about 25% reality, but 75% just due to information overload. The internet and 24/7 news makes sure you hear about all of the bad stuff in the world, but it's not necessarily all that more frequent than it was in the pre-internet age. You just didn't hear about it as much.

They are illegal in Paris France. Somehow that didn't stop 130 people from getting gunned down at the Bataclan nightclub. Sorry to blow your narrative to shit.

You'd think the hotel would've been notified like immediately when all this glass is coming down from the hotel and they would send their own security up pronto.
