    At this point it was not an Islamic terror act, and his name is Mr. Paddock from Texas. The casualties are over 50 dead and 200 wounded.

            No one stockpiles weapons and ammo and discharges hundreds of rounds because they can't sleep.

              And it sounded like automatic fire, not semi-automatic fire. Where did he get autos...

                It's really not that difficult to modify a semi-automatic to full automatic. Of course, it's not legal, but people who contemplate going on a shooting spree aren't likely to quibble over the niceties of law.

                    I'm not sure what's more troubling:

                    Liberals using this as an opportunity to preach gun control...

                    ...or Conservatives fear-mongering that liberals will use this event to overturn the 2nd Amendment.

                          news just said the wounded is up to 400. many probably because people injured each other in panic to get away.
                          they also said this guy had been checked in and planning this for 3 days.
