| 1440049 | 2017-10-02 14:54:00 | A guy with a machine gun, shot at and killed at least 50 people and injured another 200+ people at an outdoor concert . He shot multiple clips of machine gun rounds from a high floor of a neighboring casino hotel . BTW: machine guns are federally prohibited in the US . Only one state allows them to my knowledge . . . . Montana being the one I know of . . . . . . but they may not be brought out of state . . . . . or across the Montana state line . . reuters . tv/v/a5N/2017/10/02/shooter-kills-at-least-50-at-vegas-concert" target="_blank">www . reuters . tv |

Besides, if he didn't use a firearm, the a bomb would be just as good . Still though, motive isn't getting clear yet . . . . . . many hours into the event . |

| 1440056 | 2017-10-02 19:32:00 | You know Joe, although we're at an end of the earth in NZ, the 21st Century is still here, along with some of the banalities that brings with it . Whilst most Mountain Time residents were snoozing, our early evening TV was interrupted with live breaking news - and live TV coverage - of the latest gun atrocity the land of the free experiences with regular monotony . The point is; there is another world outside the continental US, and a world arguably more civilised than what Fortress America perceives us to be . Just as we rejected McCarthyism, as the majority of us reject all that is appalling in the way the MSM serve us up the Clintons and Trumps (and Cleo centrefolds), we also reject the violence American society live with . No personal disrespect to you, we get enough coverage of those without additional reminders . |

| 1440057 | 2017-10-02 19:34:00 | BTW: machine guns are federally prohibited in the US . ] Nevada's lax gun laws include that firearms owners don't need licenses, don't need to register their guns, and can own as many as they like . The outlet also reported that "automatic assault weapons and machine guns are also legal in the state as long as they are registered and are possessed in adherence to federal law, according to the National Rifle Association . " In addition, gun-owners in the state may carry weapons openly without a permit and can also get a license to carry concealed . Guns with high-capacity magazines are allowed . |
