Las Vegas Shooting

It's all a sick freaking joke.

In my country Australia guns are basically illegal and we have about 15% of the murder rate of America, so no, the choice of weapon is not irrelevant.

You are also an island relatively isolated. Compared to the U.S. which is geologically conmected to Mexico and South America where drugs, organized crime and illegal weapons run ramapant.

Be angry, cry, punch a wall, go spank it to your favorite politician, I don't really care. But at least show some respect for the people that died, give them 24 hours before we turn them into political fodder? Thats all I am suggesting.
What's the difference between a day and an hour? A week or a month or a year?
 
He was not a Muslim, that's just a fact, I know you don't like it, you probably want him to be a Muslim so you can blame Muslims for everything.
Not everything, but damn sure the things that they do.

ISIS claims he was, and you don't know any different. It may surprise you to know many Muslims are also white males. It must be so confusing for you....

You just want to give us time to forget about gun control, not going to work.

There's plenty of respect for the dead in looking for ways to stop this from happening again.

Where I see the real disrespect is in your attempt to deflect the conversation to serve your own narrow interests.

The FBI doesn't know one way or the other.

The FBI says they're all but ruling out international terrorism, and that no indication has been found of international terrorism. Unless you want to believe ISIS on this.

That tragedy is nothing compare to Chicagos homicide rate by criminal organizations (gangs) that use already illegal weapons. So how is more gun control going to prevent criminals from purchasing illegal firearms? You think they will say "oh no guns are extra illegal now, i had better stop what i am doing"? So very naive.

Not deflect. Just postpone for 24 hours out of respect, and to give some time for information to be collected instead of useless conjecture. :rolleyes:

Such a tragedy. I woke up to the news this morning, and immediately my thoughts went out to everyone who was suffering.
