Just listened to audio taken by some Ausie’s, I swear I heard two guns firing at once, echo maybe but I don’t think so, 2 different rates of fire and different pitch.

[robroys woman]

If there were around 20,000 people there, this would mean he hit about 3% of them and killed .3%

I don’t care how target rich it is, that’s a LOT of hits. And that doesn’t include all the bullets that hit nobody.

When did she leave? Do they have flight Info? So little info coming forward.

[alrea]

could one bullet hit two people?

Thanks WH57.

I measured 444 yards using google maps.

[Redcitizen]

Yes one bullet could hit two people.

Just like they buried the Orlando shooting. That incident involved 3 left protected groups—muzzies, fags, and hispanics.

With Zero at the helm, the shooting dissapeared quickly from the media and the fags and muzzies got thrown under the bus

[NautiNurse]

That’s crazy. Just knock out the corner windows adjacent.

Clearly, you don't know where the walls are located in the suite.

[Bushite]

Absolutely.

With High Velocity rounds hitting concrete and asphalt, the rounds sometimes create several projectiles out of the concrete and asphalt that can be lethal in their own right.

I once got 4 stitches from a pebble kicked up by a round that hit 20 yards from me.

[archy]

Yeah. What's with that.

If only one of those folks attending the C&W music performance had been carrying an M79 grenade launcher, think of all the lives that might have been saved. Poonk!
