Still, that 72 minute delay in shutting the shooter down is completely inexplicable!

What 72 minute delay?

There was not a "72 minute delay in shutting the shooter down."

There are plenty of factual things to criticize the authorities about in this case without setting up strawmen like that.

I think the reason for the delay was that somebody was calling in active shooter reports in half a dozen hotels up and down the strip. When the first calls came in from the event cops by the Mandalay, the cops were allegedly at the Bellagio.(although I don’t trust the Bellagio videos because they did have a ‘three pigs’ jewelry store shootout at the Bellagio not that long ago and you know how utubers are)

Somebody needs to ask the Chief about the shooter calls - to verify they happened and to add them to the timeline

The shooter offed himself in about 13 minutes. The SWAT breached the door after 72 minutes.
The cops get a break on this. The shooter was positioned to have a clear shot at the cops. They would have been killed before they ever got near the room.

Lots of bad/confusing info out there - he was actively shooting for about 10 to 12 minutes.
