    Police scanner suggesting many dead. Not going to be good this.

    Ya, just following things on twitter. It looks and sounds awful.

    BBC r5 saying multiple shooter and multiple casualties being reported. Definitely not looking good.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,645 ✭✭✭RocketRaccoon


    Police scanners saying shooters in 5 possible locations aswell as rumours of explosives in at least one hotel.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,645 ✭✭✭RocketRaccoon


    Watching videos from the concert, the death toll from this is going to be huge I think.

    One shooter dead in the mandalay on 32nd floor.

    Scary. I hope the death toll isn't as high as it's being reported.

    This will keep happening though. You can't fill a country with guns and not expect lunacy like this to happen regularly. I'm sure somebody will be along shortly spouting crap about the second amendment but it's time to grow up frankly. Reportedly, these people fired AK-47's into the crowd. Fully automatic weapons. Crazy.

    Reports on twitter (I know) announcing the name and a photo of a suspected shooter. I am not sure of the rules on this site so won't put the name here.

    If the twitter reports are to be believed then no, I don't think so this time.

    It's either Donald Trump supporter or a religion of peace loon

    Jesus, watching a video inside a concert and listening to a fully automatic weapon just being emptied, reloaded and emptied again is terrifying. Some people on Reddit say it sounds like an M16.

    In another video from inside, it sounded like at least two fully automatics at the same time.

    I was in Laa vegas 5 weeks ago, it is shocking, so unexpected as is all of these type of events.
    Horrific stuff.

    Sure speculation but I'd say BLM or Islamic. It was a country and western festival.
