Last I heard was 2 dead?
If Titofan was here this would be on the shooting thread.
El Kabong would say it is not the gun but the shooters/authorities fault.
My boss is in vegas at the moment, staying at the Bellagio or something, she was due to fly back today but all the flights have been cancelled at the minute.
If there was an all American bloke standing in the same room as the shooter with an even bigger gun then this obviously wouldn't have happened.
Batman does not even use a gun, he would have taken him down.Quote:

I feel like I have to ask this to the members from America.
Some of you have been quite vocal on immigration leading to terrorism in the UK, and valid points have been made on that subject (whether everyone agrees with them is another story)
But my question is (obviously) relating to your gun laws, 100 people killed in 2 attacks in the space of 12 months.
Those two attacks (today's one and the one at the gay bar last year) have killed a hell of a lot more than the terrorist attacks in the UK during the same time period.
If you think we should close our borders to attempt to stop future attacks/radicalisation then is it not time the US amends it gun laws to save future attacks like this?

OK
Chicago has the strictest gun laws in America at the moment and 496 people have been shot and killed so far this year. Not by the police, not by 1 gunman, but because of gangland violence that for some reason will not be addressed.Quote:

Guns are the great equalizer and innocent people should not have their rights trampled on because some asshole up and decides to do something dumb.
Only an American with an automatic weapon can stop another American with an automatic weapon.Quote:

Guns are safe, and they keep people safer. America needs more guns to be safe from people with guns.

Sorry but these are the new numbers and it is only going to climb. I felt the thread title should reflect it more accurately. @Master
This is beyond horrificator stuff and a time of such increased insane danger coming from even harmless places now like a concert. I don't know if I want to go back this is beyond my wildest imagination I really could not believe it and still do not. I am afraid to say this but with over 575 now injured I would not be surprised if 25% of them will eventually succumb to their wounds so we are looking at maybe 200 dead here
The Bill of Rights in the Constitution guarantee that every American has the right to bear and own firearms. But I must say this now. At the time the Bill of Rights in the constitution was written we did not have mental illness we did not have schizophrenia to the extent we have it now we did not have people with intermittent explosive disorder to the extent that we have it now we did not have psychosis and psychotics running in the tens of Millions on psychoactive medication as we have now and people with issues as we have now and people with road rage as we have now. Therefore I believe this has to be the turning point now that since the population is so mentally ill how could they then be responsible enough to own firearms? I have long said that anyone who wants to be a boss or a parent should go through a rigorous psychiatric test so they do not pass on their psychological sickness is to their innocent young fragile children or two there workers in the office but I think I can extend that now to say that anyone who wants to own a firearm should be subject to extremely rigorous batteries and batteries and batteries of psychological and psychiatric tests over the course of twelve months before they can be approved
Full auto costs $10,000+, requires deep FBI check; legal autos used 3 crimes since 1934....and when I say deep FBI check I mean DEEP. Also the ATF show up at your door unannounced every so often and audit your firearms down to how many magazines you have a serial numbers on the firearms. Under Hughes Amendment, only autos made/imported pre-’86 can be transferred. This raises price massively.
But some foreigners just believe you go up to a vending machine and out comes the gun you want.
no guns
no shootings
no brainer
