NBC just reported that the shooter was retired, and was already dead, when the police opened the door (indicating, seemingly, that he shot himself); they also said that he loved Vegas, was a frequent visitor, and a gambler----he also owned 2 aircraft.

The sheriff just said "in excess of 10 weapons"----and, that they located the girlfriend, out of the country, that she was NOT with him, when he checked-in, and that it doesn't appear that she had anything to do with it.

His last medical was in 2008, so hasn't been active for sometime.

...This is the first time, hat I can think of anyhow, that a crazy shooter has gone for sitting ducks in a mass gathering - IT WILL NOT BE THE LAST. :skull: :cry:
I remember the summer after Columbine happened, people called it the " Summer of Hate"...every f*****g teenage bozo with a gun thought they'd go out with a bang and get in the headlines :( . They did.
I've pretty much said it all :evil: ...

...I rather disagree, my inner Weegee/Walter Winchell/Hildy Johnson wants it...I can see your point about links, however.
Therd was a " NSFW " tag on the top, 8tho.






ke"]Don't post pictures of dead bodies, damn it. I don't want to see that! :evil:

Seriously, what makes you think that's a good idea? If you absolutely have to, post links, not images, and tell us what the links are, that way people can choose whether they want to see that.[/quote]

Oh, that's interesting..... It says in that photo "Mesquite Texas", and the media is reporting that he lived in "Mesquite Nevada". Now, there IS a Mesquite Texas AND a Mesquite Nevada (I just googled it), but that is really interesting to me (if the media hasn't gotten the STATE, wrong).

Terrible,just terrible.
I also would like to add that the pics of dead bodies are not appropriate on this site.Some people here are very sensitive to that sort of thing.People don't need other sad images to add to the huge amount already stored in their mind.You are dealing with a very visual community here.
Secondly,I don't know if there are vets here that have seen active duty,not something anyone with PTS wants to see either.

Without a source attribution we don't know if it was even media that reported that information, at the moment it's just a screen capture. Be very wary of early 'stories' (whether in media or through friends) in any tragedy, humans have a habit of sensationalizing and flat out making up stories in that time period.
