"Absolutely. If someone was firing from a window 300 yards away at me or mine, I’d be loading that room full of 7.62’s like they were on sale. Moreover, he was firing to 1300 feet, but the distance from intersections to mobilize at was in the 150-200 yard range. Even I can hit a guy leaning out of a window at 150 yards."

Hmmm. If I were in the crowd with my family and somehow armed with a good rifle, I might, but probably not from 1300 feet, 30 stories up.

If I were in a closer position with my family and a hunting rifle, and he wasn't shooting at us, I'd probably seek cover.

If I were a cop in a position close enough to shoot at him (no threat to my family), I don't know. I have no idea what their training is in such situations.

BTW, did you read somewhere he was leaning out the window? I hadn't heard that.

If he was shooting down into a crowd 320 feet below and 1300 feet down range, I guaranty he he was full up in the window.

And, most the obvious place to mobilize is more like 600 feet down range at Hacienda and E Reno.

And, if a person in the hotel room below is standing in the window when incoming rounds start hitting the hotel, then too bad for him.
