Just breaking. A lot of repots on Twitter from people.

True Pundit reported this:

An active shooter reportedly on the 32nd floor of the Mandalay bar Hotel in Las Vegas has gunned down at least one police officer and others.

Looks like 4 to 5 hundred yards. This guy either knew what he was doing or got some good coaching from someone.

Pretty close. Still hard to tell, but I see something in forehead area...maybe.

Many, many questions.

It would be pretty terrifying just to be close to those open windows on the 32nd floor. He had to be on a lanyard or something. That or a laying down position perhaps.

Not necessarily. He’s firing into a large crowd. All he needs is the ability to put lots of rounds down range quickly.

[You would think that if someone found about the plan, they would be talking to law enforcement, rather than wandering about in the crowd.]

Per this interview:

http://www.express.co.uk/news/world/861252/Las-Vegas-shooting-latest-news-Mandalay-Bay-Route-91-Marilou-Danley

The woman/couple who were telling people -
“they’re all around you; you’re going to die” - Were escorted away.

No LEO records of the incident?

Yep. Large and tightly packed.

Still, I’m having difficulty with the idea he planned, paid for and carried this out alone. I haven’t read enough about him yet to know if he might be capable of the strategic planning. Plus, remaining focused throughout the weeks/days leading up to it. This isn’t the movies. Booze or xanax might help some, but can’t overdo either.

It’s just so....

It’s as if someone was driving him into this. Someone like an ISIS or other group.

I wasn’t implying he was a practiced long range shooter. But he knew enough to stage everything, have multiple platforms loaded for use, and set up a pretty decent snipers nest. So, yes all you need is the ability to put lots of lead down range, but he thought this out like a pro. Clearly knew how to load and operate his arsenal. A lone wolf could do this, or he could have had help. Impossible to say with what we know at this time.

I have stayed at Vegas hotels while training at Front Sight out west of Vegas on numerous occasions. Its no issue to bring cased guns, ammo, etc into and out of a hotel room. I did so every morning and evening going to and from the range.

Change the scenario and motive, and he could have carried up case after case over the several days he was there. Put a “Do Not Disturb” sign on the door to keep maids out. All very calculated.

You appear to be scary correct, right down to the room number.

Wow.

Maids did go in and out of the room.

I think it is guaranteed that he had assistance but the media will bury it. The lack of data coming out tells me that the optics are very inconvenient to the narrative of a right-wing Trump-supporter gun nut.

It reminds me of Orlando and San Bernadino. Silence, then Muslim confirmed and then silence.

To: Read Write Repeat

You have info that hotel management knew within one minute (that's a mere 60 seconds, for those of you in Rio Linda) WHAT room the shooting was coming from? If they had that figured out, then yes, they should know who had booked that particular room. Who would actually, physically be in any booked room could be another matter...

You have a supporting link for that, or as usual for you, you're talking out your stern-tube vent?
