Yes, it's called the police force.

One of those strange moments, where I agree with you.

But we need the good people with guns to protect us from the bad people with guns.

Only because 'somehow' so many of the guns owned by good people, seem to have ended up in the hands of bad people, oh and refusing legislation to control just who can own a gun.

The US needed effective gun control legislation decades ago, and its failure to change legislation remains the most prominent argument for not changing legislation (despite the fact that gun deaths in the US in a year rival those in some warzones).

The argument has been redundant for as long as I can remember - such is the power of the NRA lobby - a great, great shame.

Chattin s*** mate.
We all know you don't shout 'pew' it's 'BANG' really loudly. The real gunman pisses himself laughing and hey presto you can make good your escape!

The security guard was on that floor at that time because they had a door ajar alarm on another room. Paddock shot the guard through the door but never returned to firing at the crowd after that. Had that completely random coincidence not occurred, who knows how long he would've kept firing out the windows at the crowd. It took an hour after the security guard identified the room for a SWAT team to get to that door...


They have now updated the timeline, and it seems that the security guard wandered onto Paddock's floor before he started firing on the crowd. Paddock shot the guard through the door and only then did he turn his fire onto the crowd. [Link]

So what's baking my noodle now is - given that he'd previously booked rooms overlooking concerts but not gone through with his plan - would he have gone through with it that night if the random door ajar alarm hadn't sent the security guard to walk past the video monitor outside his door?

We don't do possession; we do defense and attack. Everything else is just wa**ing with a football.

Debunking the conspiracy theories (because apparently that's necessary for some people).

I think there's a fine line between being suspicious of the powers that be and going over the edge into 'everything is a set up'. There is little about the vegas shooting that makes some other explanation more likely that the face value one. The guy likely had a grudge due to gambling addiction, snapped and wanted to see the world burn.

Occam's Razor.

It's like the 9/11 "Truthers" who think think that somehow the Bush administration - the Katrina/Iraq/Afghanistan/Mortgage Meltdown Bush administration - masterminded a false flag operation so slick and secret that only a few enlightened souls have unearthed the truth.
