    Just when you think things aren't weird enough?

     



    Another terrible incident happened last night. For those outside the USA whom haven't heard about it:

    https://www.cbsnews.com/news/las-veg...-live-updates/

    I hope none of you had friends or family there or that were injured or killed in this. Such a tragedy.

    It was on our news last night and also in today's papers.
    How anyone could be so twisted as to commit something as absolutely atrocious as that is beyond my understanding.

    sadly this is nothing new or something that only happens here. i'm old enough to remember the tower shooter in austin . the big difference is there are now over 320 million people here and instant media . we have pushed morality and patriotism out of our schools . i find it hard to believe someone plans something like this and absolutely no on knew. hopefully in time we will know . in the meantime all we can do is pray for those effected and become more diligent in our surroundings. if you see something say something. that guy hauled 19 firearms and thousands of rounds up to that room. someone must have saw him at least once.

    Sadly, no one wants to get involved!..Now it seems with all the media that we are exposed to daily, someone will copycat this in another location! Hopefully I'm wrong!
    As for not getting involved I feel as though I'm the one of the very few in today's world that stops to help people broke down on the highway. I'm NEVER going to let a woman sit there with a flat tire! I'm certain that a lot of you on here feel the same because we're a different breed than most!

    CR55,

    I agree with you as I try to help anyone that I see who needs help but I am also very careful when approaching a car or person because of all of the dopers we have here. Ther seems to be at least two or three stabbings a day around this arera.

    I'll just put this here and see how long before it is removed from youtube. If any of you are following this, from everything I'm seeing and hearing, it is a cover up of epic proportions. If you have the extra time watch it. There are so many red flags on this one, it is so bazaar.

    I listen close and can't give an opinion.

    The rate of fire is not constant but that could be resultant from the bump stock.

    It almost sounds like multiple shooters but when you consider echo, it sounds like a single.

    It's a sad day for everyone involved.

    I don't like watching it much either but there is a lot of weird stuff that seems to be trying to get buried here. Reporters cutting off witnesses when they speak about multiple shooters etc. Now some believe the original shooter is an undercover FBI agent that was an arms dealer whom was selling guns/weapons to ISIS and they figured it out.

    All kinds of things are being left out of the main media/news feeds. None of them are speaking of the several dead bodies on different floors of Mandalay Bay hotel, none of them reported about the gun shots that took place at the Bolagio etc

    I'm not saying it is all true, but it does tie up some loose ends and explain some of the mysteries of WTF.....

    It's a shame that we no longer have real "investigative" reporters.

    We finally found a great school for the twin grandchildren, Classical Preparatory School. They're in the 4th grade and are learning old math (as opposed to new math), latin and world history. William enlightened us on Charles V of Spain the other day.
