We’re getting a completely different report here.

Suspect’s mother definitely isn’t Arab if the card used to book the hotel room belongs to the suspect.

I was hoping against hope since there was a delay just after the initial assault (reload / who knows) - that one and only one was reloading.

It is. That’s what a real, honest-to-god machine gun *does*. Think “WW1 infantry charge being cut down”. One person with an actual machine gun can do that.

I used the term to describe what I hear on video. I hear what sounds to me like a 30 round 5.56, interspersed with much longer bursts from something larger. Gut says 7.62. Not quite barrel melting bursts, but longer than US doctrine suggests. I have both calibers, but the acoustics aren’t as good on these videos as what I hear on the firing range.

^^ My opinion, fwiw.

Still got the video problem but I CAN see the one on Twitter where the guy was singing and then the gunfire started. Thanks for update.

Prayers up for all victims and families.

That video is not the worst, it is at the beginning, fist one I saw, too dark to see the bullets hit. Just hear the sounds.

But just watched a ghastly video where you see shots “spark” or hit, and you see people running and many go down and some get up and keep running and some don’t. And a cop or rent a cop walks in front of the phone camera looking dazed. This is horrible horrible horrible.

I’ve heard a female name. Didn’t seem legit though.
