It's anti-refreshing to see and read so many liberal politicians and entertainers already going back to their gun-control religion while the bodies are still warm. Such heroes.

How is this the only picture we have of the shooter over a day later?

For those going to Vegas soon. Please do not cancel. We are going tomorrow.

We called the hotel where we are staying. It is near where the massacre happened. They said business is open. They also asked to please not cancel because that lets the madman motives win. She also sounded exhausted on the other end of the line probably from calls like mine all day.

We are going to give to the local economy. We are going because I will not let a madman win.

Vegas is an international city that keeps moving.

I'm with you on this? If this is the only pic they have, this guy must have really been off the grid.

There is more, but I've only seen at most 2-3; that is one of the stranger things..

But my dad doesn't have a FB nor does he have a lot of pictures on the internet; however from our outings together I've posted a few, but his name isn't mentioned.

one of the "experts" that was on Fox News last night seemed to lay a decent amount of blame for this type of grotesque crime on narcissism that's been created by social media outlets.

Looks like a 10, no? I also don't see a bump stock.

Social media has created too many "brave" people who say things with no consequences. In real life people wouldn't say a quarter of the stuff they say online (here included).
Honestly, I believe this is the biggest reason why we see an increase in mass killings across the globe. Arguing anonymously on the internet allows you to dehumanize people who are different than you until you can rationalize violence against them.

From Dylan Roof to Emanuel Samson to Antifa and Alt-Right and countless number of ISIS terrorists (don't discount the role of social media in spreading terrorist indoctrination), they all reached the point of looking at people different than themselves and concluding they are deserving of violence.

No bumpfire. Looks like a dd4

based on reports of ammo found - 308 and 223 - I'm guessing the majority of weapons were 10s and 15s. Easily transported and accurate enough at long ranges.

This doesn't necessarily mean it was the gun that we all heard in the videos. Just one of many in the hotel room.

It could be internally modified to fire fully automatic.

I can see where a crude modification could result in the same sound signature as a bump stock.

The rifle in that pic could be broken down and put in a backpack and you'd never notice

But this guy wasn't on social media and he was a multi-millionaire.

Actually, I think you're right.

There is a 223/5.56 casing for comparison next to it.

The guy was obviously an idiot.

Who plays high stakes video poker?

Anti-social... doesn't want to deal with humans.

This is strange. It's like the feds have locked down any information about this guy, which is concerning because conspiracy theories will continue to run amok.

Wonder if he learned to keep "off the grid" and radar of authorities from his psycho father.

Apparently the female walked into the crowd earlier in the night and told people in the crowd they were all going to die.
So what was the deal with this? Read that a few places early on, but there has been no follow up. Seems pretty important if it did indeed happen.

We called the hotel where we are staying. It is near where the massacre happened. They said business is open. They also asked to please not cancel because they need your money! that lets the madman motives win.

Given the ballistics and distance, that makes a lot more sense than a 15.

I didn't post this yesterday because I didn't want to be "that guy" but a friend of mine who is really connected in the gun nerd online world told me as early as about noon yesterday that his source in federal LE confirmed the shooter used AR's with slidefire stocks and 100 rnd surefire mags. That is exactly what is in the pic above. Exactly.

so to answer your question, sh** just leaks out. There have probably been dozens, maybe hundreds, of LEO's in that room.

I am going in 2 weeks. Did not plan on canceling.

Looks like an AR 47 and definitely a bump stock. Would explain the high rate of fire that sounded like 7.62

Pending additional info, I'm going with a guy that funneled money out of the country to his girlfriend, basically bankrupting himself, then goes out in a blaze of glory against a bunch of second amendment loving, trump voting, country music fans. Leftist media will blame trump and the victims.
All the more reason to completely nullify his posthumous arrangements. Will is burned, everything seized. Anything that has not yet gone to the girlfriend frozen.

As an additional measure to combat murder-suicide, far from becoming a `celeb' of sorts, their name should be stricken from mention.

The casing in the 2nd picture brad posted above just seems like it is a 308.

It's 5.56. That mag is a Surefire 100 rnd.

...but Boston 25... Sounds Ron Burgundyish..

Maybe national news passed on publishing them?

Also, anecdotally, my parents are in their mid 70s and have no social media and are not in any photos posted by family on social media that I know of. Mom has an iphone but only uses it for ohone, pics and maps. They just keep to themselves and live in the real world. It's not that farfetched, just that we under the age of 50 are so used to being online that we forget there are tons of people who choose not to.
