Back in May, the Islamic State released a video targeting Las Vegas. The ISIS propaganda video made threats against Las Vegas landmarks. It caused authorities enough concern that they sent out warning notices to hotels on the famous Strip. “In the video that calls for lone wolf attacks, several Strip properties were prominently displayed,” reported Las Vegas Now.

I would bet it was a Muslim attack, but certain groups will probably try to steer away from that.

AQ targeted Vegas years ago, it’s nothing new. Police already confirmed suspect is local white male so much more likely it’s a deranged Soros antifa leftist. Especially considering the target: conservative white country music fans.

sounds like an AK ( rate of fire )

looks like a radical Obama voter got to the city first.

More likely antifa or BLM. Antifa carried out attacks throughout Europe yesterday. Looking for Asian chic accomplice.

BLM case is that there are a lot of white people at country music concerts and NFL and altleft have been legitimatizing black racism.

what?? the dude was some local white guy.

The Satanic State strikes again.

NOT a right-winger. And almost certainly aided and abetted by ISIS, if not an outright part. Several people, it would seen, have been involved, and it was all a conversion subversion.

The cancer spreads, and people, of whom you thought were once at least sufficiently of an American upbringing, are being inducted into the vast irregular army that is ISIS.

ISIS, doing what its god, the devil tells them to do.

belt fed

Don't think so. Slide fire stock methinks. Possibly an auto glove. Probably pre positioned a few rifles with drums and picked up another weapon rather than reload.

First one was a 50-75 rd drum while music playing. Very slow reload to the next magazine. Probably not a second shooter which would start firing when the other shooter stops. Very VERY slow reload. Probably a slide fire stock or auto-glove that makes semi's bump fire (similar to full auto) and hard to reload.

There is a video on twitter that makes me believe this is an auto glove due to variable ROF (rate of fire) going up and down. Either that or there were two rifles being shot at once.

Methinks this will be the weapon. Semi auto AR 15 with belt fed upper (accessory) with a bump fire stock (slidefire)...possibly an auto glove.

I highly doubt he used ATF form 4d weapons.

The warning has been out there since May 25, 2017.

Texas sharpshooter fallacy

The name comes from a joke about a Texan who fires some gunshots at the side of a barn, then paints a target centered on the tightest cluster of hits and claims to be a sharpshooter.

Why are there two shot out windows at the Mandalay?
