population of nevada in 2016 - 2.94 million

nj has strict gun laws

Nevada does not

Check you statistics again. That is not the number of gun homicides in NV.

I agree with all of that, but he did buy a lot of guns last year and this attack was well planned out. Even with his conditions he had time to think about what he was doing and change his mind. He had to have made up his mind some time ago. IF he is a lone wolf and really did all this by himself, he was certainly determined but then he was probably a confident man considering his history of beating the odds.

Denial is a river in Egypt that gun laws restrict ownership to law-abiding citizens while the Deep State still has them.

Nah, denial is keep insisting that guns (especially assualt rifles) aren't a part of the problem we call mass-shootings.

On this site, it said 429.


https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.rgj.com/amp/78689196

That link don't work no more, this one https://qz.com/1092135/las-vegas-sho...car-accidents/ has a chart that implies it.

... But here, the total number of homicides for 2015 was 134...
https://m.lasvegassun.com/news/2016/...o-far-in-2016/

This is the problem with Lame Stream Media, Fake Stream Media, MSM.

The internet is full of garbage.

So what's the darned truth?

Ya, saw that one and it includes suicides.

For purposes of the report, gun deaths include gun suicides, homicides, and fatal unintentional shootings; motor vehicle deaths include both occupants and pedestrians.

Actually not. You merely need to understand what you are reading. There are two different numbers - gun homicides and gun deaths. The first cite is correct...but is reporting gun deaths not gun homicides.

OK maybe this was already addressed and if so, I'm sorry - maybe someone will answer it again or give me the post # because this thread is very long.

But I was looking at what are supposedly crime scene photos and there are very few shell casings in the photos. I would think there would be 3000 shell casings if he shot 3000 bullets. Does anyone have any idea why there are so few shell casings in the photos?
