Las Vegas: Worst Mass Shooting in US History

[Archie Moses]

Facebook and twitter, mainly. I'll keep the sources to myself as of now cause, like I said, I don't know what I've read is true. It seems legit though. I'm sure you could find it be googling keywords.

I might add, I'm not saying this is true, but reading stuff online that's trying to spin it this way with some things to validate it. Going to read more into now and check the sources.

Like candrew said, him being 64 doesn't make it believable he was a member of the antifa, but people online are pretty convinced.

The stuff I said was all over online and the top of google searches. Good thing I didn't say, hey guys this is absolutely true, eh?

It sure as hell isnt getting any better.

The division and attacking of other people feels like it's at an all time high. You're either a liberal commie/hippie/moron or a deplorable racist. There's no in-between.

This is something that I see a lot when talking to Americans or reading content. Exaggeration, polarizing statements and "either you're with me or against me" are positions that come up a lot.

It's incredibly sad that your first thought upon seeing this was Dutch.

Get control of yourself. You're just as bad as he is.

In your last response you moan about a narrow spectrum of responses, but yet you condemn OP for probably truthfully sharing what first came to his mind when he read the news.
For example, my first thought was: Next days Trump's and NRA's twitter accounts are probably worth a read. Reading about weapon related incidents in the US so is familiar, it doesn't really shock me anymore. Also just because my first association regarding the news was rather cynical, it doesn't mean I do not have any compassion for the families and friends of those shot, just like I can feel compassion for those affected by a hurricane or an earthquake.

I feel the most logical step to opening a dialogue and creating a less polarizing landscape would be altering the election. If there are more than just two relevant parties and they can find a way into the senate without having the majority in a state, I believe that would enhance the quality of discussions within the country.

If only somebody in the crowd had a gun...

You don't take a sharpshooting rifle and shells to a concert?

Wealthy, white, old male with a gun fetish? Definitely fits that left wing liberal profile. When I picture antifa, I picture duck dynasty, Ted Nugent, and Honey BooBoo... /s

Unless you go to gun show or other places that have loop holes. Or you convert it to an automatic yourself. Plus there is a very alive and well black market where they can be purchased for much cheaper. I can see them for sale right now on the Dark Web.

Bruh.

You aren't buying a fully auto rifle at a gun show without a proper license.

Why you justifying a wonky *** myth from a known troll with a response? IGNORE.

There is no gun show loophole. There is NOTHING in the Federal laws allowing sales from FFL dealers to go around any law Cabella's does not have to follow.

Stop responding to trolls.

FWIW, it was not on "my" internet. It was not the top of "my" google search.

Google creates a profile of you and feeds you the things it thinks you want to hear.

"Gun show loophole" is a misnomer.

The "loophole" is that private party to private party sales do not require a background check. That's the loophole.

Any licensed gun dealer has to run background checks on all gun sales. At a gun show or anywhere else.

I'm aware that is the law. I'm also aware that people sale guns illegally quite often. I have bought multiple guns and own guns, I have never gone through a background check to buy one. My friend's dad owns multiple fully automatic guns. He converts many semi's but he has also purchased many through back channels and gun shows in Utah that are great place for making those contacts.

Well I have witnessed it here. I'm aware that's the law but that does not mean it doesn't happen which is my original point, that current laws need to be better enforced.

What about the rest of those? People aren't converting guns? People aren't purchasing them through back channels?

What a stupid post

just as stupid as banning guns.

because guns are not the problem. mental health is. over prescription is the problem!



all those drugs, have lots of side effects! 80% of americans are on some kind of drug. not saying ban drugs, but maybe just look into that. before going the venezualan and national socilaist way and start banning guns. becuase it will not help. and will lead to a slippery slope.


their whjere a lot less mass shooting in the 90's 80's and 70's when the gun laws where more lax!

So even with all of the regulations and laws already in place black market gun buying is still happening.

What changes do you propose that would stop or severely limit black market gun buying?
