It moves away fast you will be OK bud....
I really don't know if the above is real or not but it looks pretty sincere. Supposedly right from the scene by a guy and his gal-pal running for their lives. Fairly long but worth the read.
Indication is 4-5 shooters. I saw another link that the perp never fired the first shot. This thing is so endless it's as big as Benghazi.

By the way there is this:
................
The full extent of US cooperation with Turkey, Saudi Arabia and Qatar in assisting the rebel opposition in Syria has yet to come to light. The Obama administration has never publicly admitted to its role in creating what the CIA calls a ‘rat line’, a back channel highway into Syria. The rat line, authorized in early 2012, was used to funnel weapons and ammunition from Libya via southern Turkey and across the Syrian border to the opposition. Many of those in Syria who ultimately received the weapons were jihadists, some of them affiliated with al-Qaida. (The DNI spokesperson said: ‘The idea that the United States was providing weapons from Libya to anyone is false.’)

Never a dull moment...
Yup! Went to put the dog (German Shepherd) outside.
Opened door, she took one look and a sniff... Walked back into her cage and lay down.
Not that windy even. Just lots of rain.
There’s yer dam-uh eight, Larri.
Raise your hand if you think the shooter acted alone....
seeing no hands.....

Careful RG, there are many here who think the girlfriend is innocent and Paddock was just crazy, end of story. I’ve been labeled a loon.
I’m with you and have bookmarked the Reddit stuff for after service this morning.
Good news--the debris removal trucks finished their workday one block N of the house yesterday. Don't know which direction they will head today. Hoping one block S...
Skip ABC. Seth Moulton, the human hemorrhoid from Massholechusetts is on. Gawd! I cannot bear this sniveling jerk.
So, whatever possessed you to park your truck in the pond? ;)
Looks like nobody in Florida missed out on the fun this year.
I went ahead and invested in a chipper/shredder. The rest of the development looks like crap but our street . .. . . . I became very popular because everyone wanted the mulch.
Looks like everyone on the Gulf coast is getting hit this year. And now for something totally different

Morning AB, All. As always, thank you AB for doing this thread so reliably and keeping the peace with gentle thread policing. Thank you Bray for weekly written wisdom, Thank all yon contributors for excellent commentary to flesh it all out.
Below are the words from my daily political diary. It is quite long so scroll on by if not interested. But do stay around and add your commentary and point of view to the thread.
It grab your gun week, a national holiday whenever some nut job gets it in his head to go shoot a bunch of people.
Of course the logical thing to do is TAKE AWAY THE GUNS OF ALL THE INNOCENT PEOPLE!!!
IF a terrorist runs into a crowd with a truck then take away all their trucks, or course. If they use knives….CONFISCATE THEM!
If we are to ever achieve complete safety from our fellow man, we should not be allowed any item that could harm us. We should sit in our chairs all day, quiet, do not talk to avoid hurting feelings with misspoken words. Do not criticize anyone, do not complain, get a handler to take care of you.
Yeah, that’s the ticket.

Las Vegas Shooting
There is, as of this writing, great confusion over the actions of this Paddock character, who shot and killed almost 60 people, injuring over 500 others, during a concert in Las Vegas.
Again, as of this writing, the nut job’s motives are not known but let’s discuss a few other nut jobs.
First, there is CBS’ fine, fine lawyer, who evidently drank a bit too much vodka. Excerpt from online write up below:
___________________________
Hayley Geftman-Gold, the network’s now-former vice president and senior counsel, took to Facebook after a gunman opened fire at the Route 91 Harvest Music Festival in Las Vegas, killing at least 58 people and sending more than 500 others to hospitals.
“If they wouldn’t do anything when children were murdered I have no hope that Repugs [sic] will ever do the right thing,” Geftman-Gold wrote in a now-deleted message that was first reported and captured by The Daily Caller.
Geftman-Gold continued: “I’m actually not even sympathetic bc [sic] country music fans often are Republican gun toters [sic].”
_________________________
Such a lovely person. Of course she got fired. May she spend every second of every minute of every hour regretting this very dumb statement she was stupid enough to make publicly..
She will always be despised for it. WE LOVE YA HAYLEY!!!
Then there was Hillary Clinton and in the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Ghost, thank God this woman was NOT elected.
First thing she says….what if this guy had silencers on his guns?
Say what?
If I have learned nothing about Hillary Clinton since the election I have learned how incredibly stupid she is. Her followers are just as stupid.
Of course Jimmy Kimmel, a guy with no talent whatsoever, launches into invectives about Republicans who obviously invite these people to shoot them and we all should give up our guns, of course.
I believe this guy was shooting likely Republicans at a country-western concert.
BUT WHAT IF HE HAD HAD A SILENCER?
Think people, don’t make Hillary do all our thinking.
Of course we need gun control!
Over and over and over again the libs get on the TV screaming that we must take away the guns.
Forget that they are killing people with cars, vans, knives and bombs…..WE GET RID OF THE GUNS FROM THE INNOCENT PEOPLE WE ALL WILL BE SAFE!!!
My neighbor calls me and tells me that getting machine guns should be against the law. I tell her IT IS AGAINST THE LAW!!!
Imagine that, a criminal didn’t obey the law and managed to get a machine gun!
You don’t believe? Go into a gun store and ask to buy a machine gun, see how far you get.
Hillary, God bless, demands that silencers on guns be banned and….thank you Lord that this woman is not President. Proving that God does really bless America.
If we ban silencers…what? Nobody will ever shoot anyone ever again?
Or how about this one? Ban what the libs call the gun control loophole?
This is when some old fart buys a couple of old guns for his stellar collection and does not need a gun permit for such a dastardly act.
They pick sound bytes, these people who want so desperately to control us. And stopping the purchase of useless guns at gun shows is one way to keep us down. The public with no brains has umbrage that Grandpa Joe can buy a gun at a show and not need a gun permit.
Does anybody really believe Grandpa Joe does not have any other guns, that he goes to gun shows to buy his first and only gun?
Yeah, it gets old.
But let them try.
It won’t happen with Trump but Hillary would have pushed through a ban on ALL guns.
And America will take to the streets, write it down.
You’ll not take away our guns and walk away with a smirk.
Cause we will use our guns as defense against those who would take them away.

Bumstocks to the garbage!
The libs are out and about and attempting to take away our guns, even if piece by piece.
The latest and greatest attack on guns is making these things called BUMSTOCKS illegal.
Who knew there was even such a thing, much less use it to reconfigure a gun?
It would seem that the lovely Steve Paddock somehow used this thing called a bumstock to make his weapon fire repeatedly, like a machine gun.
Because machine guns are illegal people, although the libs came out to ban them because they believe banning the same things over and over must do some good.
Please make them stop with this stuff. I don’t believe even the total outright banning of guns….ALL guns, would not have stopped this guy.
Would not have stopped most criminals and don’t tell anyone I told you this….but CRIMINALS COMMIT CRIMES.!!!
Only law-abiding gun-owners are hurt by gun control laws and the liberals want to control us.
SO TAKE AWAY THEIR GUNS is the mantra.
I do not believe this will ever, not ever, happen.
Not in America.
Somebody tell the libs to go live in Australia where guns are illegal and yet people still are getting killed by guns.

Las Vegas shooter update
Please do not believe that I have any update on the Las Vegas shooter never mind my misleading headline.
Like News junkees across the nation I have been watching and speculating.
Right now I think the perp wanted to make the casinos look bad. He loses money there and if he shot up a bunch of people out of a casino window it would hurt the gambling business.
But also like everyone else, I’m just guessing. This guy is a mystery, about as ordinary a person as is on the planet.
He has enough money to live on with no great concern. He seems healthy enough. I don’t buy that mental illness stuff but that might ultimately end up the final verdict.
Time to take a week off, wait for the hurricane and speculate on that Hollywood director with an obsession for having females watch him take a shower.
Interesting line up for Fox News Sunday...
I should have said this.
That’s not my photo!
I just googled a “picture of a lot of rain falling”, and posted that because it looked like out my front window. But not my picture, sorry!
and you know I was just kidding by the wink ;)
