Yeah, pretty much.
Unless he was just trying to get some sleep in his hotel room and the country music was keeping him awake.

Apparently he was a big country music fan. Not that it really makes any difference to what he did.
 
Probably one of the reasons why he was there at that time.

Quite possibly. Whatever his motive for being there he'd obviously been planning it for a while, because he'd amassed 42 guns and hundreds of rounds of ammunition. I just watched a video where a firearms expert (not HIAG) was saying that he would have been firing off around 200 rounds per minute. He must have taken some time to acquire that arsenal, because even in the States if you walk into a gun shop and try to buy that amount it's going to raise alarm bells.

Words almost fail me ... heard all the arguments about the bad guys would still get guns even if there was a ban etc ... but this lone fruit loop would never have been able to go to a hotel armed with 23 killing machines if there had been such a ban, now would he?

Sales of automaric weapons to individuals should be banned now on the back of thos, but they won't be. Sickening.
 
In America, the rights to own guns are written into their constitution, now imagine if the 900 brutally attacked Catlan's had guns, if that had been in America all hell would have broke loose. But what is the moral of the story, no one died but and it's a big but...Spain dictated to it's citizens it's own democratic ways of reasoning, think I know which out of the two countries I'd prefer to go and live in, in that situation from a democratic point of view.

Spain highlighted, why America had the constitution for guns in the first place.

The swat team would have gone in and shot them all instead of just attacking them

Just watched a video where a firearms expert said that you can legally buy fully automatic weapons that were made before 1986 in any gun shop. You can also buy the mods legally to convert a semi automatic weapon into a fully automatic one. And you can legally buy fully automatic weapons made after 1986 in certain circumstances too.

The whole issue of gun regulation is completely ****ed and there's zero incentive from this administration to do anything about it.

There is absolutely no rationale nor justification for automatic weapons being legal for the public to buy and own.

They are not hunting weapons, nor can they be justified as a means of self defense. They are expressly for killing - people!

As we've just seen, they're rather good at it too!.
 
I would never defend America having guns, I'm sure you realise I'm only stating why the constitution to own them came about. Do I think they should stop owning guns, I do. But I'm English, and would say that from my tiny gun free little island <ok>

Constitution mentions the right to bear arms or something like that. Would you agree they should go onto own their own RPGs, Nukes, Missiles if they could afford to produce them?

Too early for official speculation but as he was an accountant maybe he was in trouble for syphoning accounts of his clients and was in Vegas to try and luck out as to say. Could have gone tits up for him and drove him over the edge?

He was a retired bean counter wasn't he? His brother said he was a multi millionaire property developer.

He could have 'lucked out' in Vegas though and he's gone radio rental, but the fact that he went tooled up to the max says it was definitely a pre-meditated act.

All very odd.

Other than to steal his considerable collection of recycling or those guns, I can't think that there's a single good reason to go within a mile of him or his property. That 'haircut' and those pants would see 99% of possible intruders off.
<laugh>
I know right!

That is a world class Mullet he is rocking there.
Mullets should instantly be a cause for someone to banned from owning a fire arm in my opinion.

I Googled to see if there was any correlation between mass murderers and Mullet haircuts....As you probably would have guessed there wasn't backing up the theory that mullets are an adequate deterrent. <laugh>
