Mass Shooting in Las Vegas - 58 Dead at Least 515 Injured, Suspect Killed - Sensationalist Headlines

[QUOTE=Dippeggs;52737690]FYI don't read the comments on liveleak, they're nothing but shitposting.[/QUOTE] Considering it's a site that people go to when they want to see dead bodies, i wouldn't doubt it.

In case you ever need a case study on why you should not post photos of possible suspects: [QUOTE]Reddit user "oops777" made this subreddit to organize an effort to find the Boston Bombers. Reddit wasn't the first to do this though, the subreddit just organized everyone. It was a complete witchhunt, with images like these. Anyway, a missing student's name was heard on a police scanner, so that became their focus of attention. As it turned out, the student had killed himself. Eventually the subreddit was banned and oops777 deleted his account, but it will always go down in Reddit history.

I am hoping sincerely for everyone living in the US right now that it's anything but antifa [highlight](User was banned for this post ("This wasn't appropiate" - Kiwi))[/highlight]

Briefing started.

FYI Local officials talking to media right now.

[QUOTE=Ignhelper;52737496]I'm just surprised that people didn't go running out.[/QUOTE] [QUOTE=Boss;52737674]Just saw the video on liveleak it's worrying that so many people dropped to the ground that were in a large group. You get out of the mass target area asap if that means hands n knees crawling so be it![/QUOTE] Crowd psychological behavior is a very powerful thing when adrenaline and panic kick in. It is very difficult for people to act against the instinctual fear of doing something contrary to the rest of the group they are in, so your initial reaction is to do as those around you are doing: if the majority is running, you run, if they're all diving to the ground, you end up doing the same. It's the same set of characteristics of the human mind that allows the bystander effect to take place. It's simple to say that you should do something more optimally when not in the same position, but the internal urge for self-preservation will often trump rationality in such a terrible scenario.

[QUOTE=Egevened;52737723]I am hoping sincerely for everyone living in the US right now that it's anything but antifa[/QUOTE] The hell gave you that idea?

It's believed it was a couple, the male is dead and the female has not been found. I missed the name of the lady.

[B]Stop posting names because all it causes is a witch hunt.[/B]

Interested to hear if the woman reported to be saying that "everyone was gonna die" is in fact Marilou.

She was apparently a companion of the shooter.

Shooter is believed to be a local, according to the briefing.

20+ people dead according to the press conference, 100+ injured My god.

[QUOTE=SuperDany;52737737] The name posted was referenced in the briefing. She was apparently a companion of the shooter.[/QUOTE] Alright then, just, please, people, don't start pulling up facebooks or linkedins just based on that name. You have no idea which person that could be -- shooter or random innocent from far away.

NVM, you fixed it.

[QUOTE=Egevened;52737723]I am hoping sincerely for everyone living in the US right now that it's anything but antifa[/QUOTE] What are you even on about. What makes you think this is the right time for this kind of speculation?

-snip-

100+ injured, 20+ dead. Off-duty police officers among the fatalities.

[QUOTE=Stroheim;52737741]100+ people dead according to the press conference My god.[/QUOTE] At least 20 dead, over 100 injured is what news I'm watching just said [editline]woahfakeedit[/editline] Stroheim fixed it.

Police confirmed 20 dead 100 injured total numbers not confirmed. Only one shooter at present and only explosive devices confirmed to be used were those used by the Swat to gain access to the hotel room.

Fuck, my friend is on the strip posting updates. Haven't seen an attack in America this coordinated in years.

Apparently the woman is the shooters roommate.

Man, the reporters constantly asking for the identity must be pissing the sheriff off

[QUOTE=Sir_takeslot;52737753]Apparently the woman is the shooters roommate.[/QUOTE] i wonder why she went to the concert and said "y'all gonna die" Was it a threat or a warning? That's really strange.

[QUOTE=Sir_takeslot;52737753]Apparently the woman is the shooters roommate.[/QUOTE] I thought that was in reference to the deceased police officers? Couldn't quite hear the question, but it came right after he announced that a pair of off-duty officers were killed.

[QUOTE=Trilby Harlow;52737756]i wonder why she went to the concert and said "y'all gonna die" Was it a threat or a warning? That's really strange.[/QUOTE] not confirmed if it was her so said that, whether or not it was her will determine how elaborate this was.
