This is horrible. They are reporting that the shooter is a local and with all the cameras in Vegas they can hopefully piece this all together. I just wish they could have prevented it.

It took explosives to get into his room and stop him. No good guy with a gun could have done anything.

And that he was using high capacity automatic weapons is why he was able to kill and injury so many people so quickly.

Cindy

Because it's our 2nd amendment rights of course. And naturally those rights would be violated by laws against owning machine guns.

Oh and the NRA of course keeps its eye on those rights by funneling money to our corrupt congress.

Does that answer your question?

My brother,his wife,baby, and his middle daughter live there. Not close enough to have been in harms way, unless they were there, but I doubt they were. We have a text into them, as well.

Horrible. Our world breaks my heart.

I just couldn't like this, but I echo it. I heard this news on the radio while driving my daughter and her friend to school and we all just sat in silence. I hate the world we're giving them sometimes.

Im sitting in my closet trying to start my day and having a hard time doing so. I feel so heartbroken for the hundreds of people and families affected.

I am determined to get up and go out and do something beautiful in the world today. Probably after I spend some time crying in the shower first.
