Amidst this tragedy, it will be interesting to watch the Trump Hater Bandwagon jump from Puerto Rico to Las Vegas.

You people disgust me.
What does that have to do with this shooting? This guy was a local who could have lost all his money gambling and wanted to get back at them. They've spoken to the suspect's brother and he said "he was just a guy" and asked them to call if they figure out why he did it.

I've seen several people call him evil. Does that count?

Also, no need for false flag posts.

Can hardly wait for Alex Jones' take on things.
How about you let the trained investigators do their job, and you stop trying to "solve" the crime while dead bodies still give off heat, eh?

See pre market trading, as in, where the stock is projected to go on open.

So, you don't understand...


I want you to prove your point...this link provides nothing but a black screen...


Maybe you missed the point, but bed bath and beyond DOES NOT SELL rifles....neither does FED-X....


Provide the link that shows GUN STOCKS are going up, because you cannot prove to anyone what that particular stock is going up.....not when it's different companies all together....

If it was this same guy and it was a rap concert the immediate connection to a racist would be all over the place.

I am sure there are lots of concerts there and lots of people of all backgrounds hunt. The reason this guy picked this day could be a number of things but he did pick this concert so that may be significant.

I do believe the divisiveness from the President down to the media and all that entails fuels this sort of thing. And then you get some mentally unstable person thinking this sort of violence is justified.

no, it doesn't. any person can be evil. calling someone an animal means they are not even considered to be human. big difference.

I'm going to say something that might sound horrible, but I actually kind of hope this event eventually leaves the public's mind fairly soon.

Lets be honest about this; nothing is going to happen. There will be debate as there always is, congress will hee and haw, then do nothing and everyone will forget until the next one. The only thing thats going to happen is the NRA will exploit this tragedy to say "LOOK OUT EVERYONE!! THEY ARE GOING TO TAKE AWAY YOUR GUNS!!!!" and gun sales will skyrocket like they do for every shooting. Controversy only helps the NRA
