Wow. Did the media just destroy this Asian woman's life? I
Yep.
Before they even decided to talk about the white guy who ACTUALLY committed the crime.
WS code.
They had to pull out the non white faces in this story and vilify them before anything.

Petty Vandross.. fukk Yall
You can legally own a fully automatic gun and silencer in vegas, same as Texas. The fully auto just requires more paperwork and a waiting period. If you have the cash and can legally buy a gun then you can buy a fully auto
You can go to any gun show(or gun store) in Texas and find the artillery of your dreams..
I went to a gun show in Houston not to long ago to see how much a AR-15 would be and this shyt was like a real version of the Chocolate Factory..
It was hella surreal..
But they playing that bs narrative as if you can’t buy military grade weapons outchea and customize them at will..

Stop it.

People don't have access to military grade weapons

And you so like one of those liberals that's trying to take people guns away
Man I don't give a fukk.

No one should be able to get High power automatic weapons like that.

Esp with the mental health issues we have

Shooter souped up his semi-automatic rifles to let off more rounds :damn: :damn: :damn:

The rapid pace of the gunfire suggested that the shooter was using either a fully automatic weapon, tightly restricted under US law, or that he had attached a device to a semi-automatic gun to make it fire more continuously, said Massad Ayoob, a firearms expert, instructor and author.


“It’s faster than almost any human being is going to be able to pull a trigger on a semi-automatic,” Ayoob said.

Paddock could have used a Hellfire or a bump-fire device, which attach to normal semi-automatic rifles and allow them to fire more rapidly, Ayoob said. These devices are legal, but rarely used by serious shooters, he said.

“It’s hard to shoot accurately with them, and serious shooters want accuracy,” he said. He called them “not terribly popular” and “something a gun geek would want”.

For the Las Vegas shooter, though, the accuracy of these devices would not have mattered, since he was “hosing a two-acre area with 30,000 targets,” nearly every shot he fired would have hit someone.

On its website, Bump Fire Systems advertises the device as permitting “simulated full-auto firing” that is “absolutely legal”. It sells Bump Fire stocks for $99.99.

The Hellfire system uses a hand-operated crank to hit the trigger of the gun more rapidly than a person could fire it, Ayoob said, which could explain apparent changes in the pace of the fire.

If he didn't have a gun he would've found another way to kill people. I'm all for gun controls but the industry makes too much money for it to be stopped.

He would have found a way to kill people but it would have been less victims, for example in London that terrorist who was going around stabbing people, his body count was low compared to if he had guns he woulda killed a lot of people.
