The anti-gun idiots will be going ape shit over this one!!!

"From the first reports of gunshots at 10:08 p.m. Sunday, it would be 72 chaotic minutes until a SWAT team crept down a carpeted hallway on the 32nd floor of the Mandalay Bay hotel and blew open the hotel room occupied by suspected gunman Stephen Paddock.

By then, the gunfire had long since ceased and Paddock was dead."

Ok, so appears he shot for 9-11 minutes, but took 72 minutes till they got into the room. So for 60 minutes the man just chilled in the room not firing (or dead, but same point)....wtf ??? So really this guy could have went another 60 minutes and only reason firing stopped is because he chose to stop....that is how I am reading it.

a security guard was shot in the leg when police first located the suspect at that ten minute mark. probably took his life then. because the shooting stopped police didn't push it. I'm guessing if he had continued to shoot into the crowd or down the hall things would have been. much different.

I suppose, but for all they knew he was re-loading all those weapons for a second go....or even arming a bomb. I know easier said than done, but it does make the 10 minute figure a bit misleading as many people think they were in that room in 10 minutes when that was not the case.

still pretty quick for what was going on.

Go to the 4:55 mark of the video and as the cab driver is leaving, she looks up towards Mandalay Bay and you can see flashes coming from where the 4th floor would be.

Also view the video on YouTube's website, it will allow you to enlarge the video.

Unless they managed to fix the 4th floor window overnight, where's the busted out window? There are certainly some questions surrounding the whole thing, but there are also a lot of conspiracy theories that don't pass even simple questioning.

I agree with you man. I'm not saying there was a second shooter on the 4th or 6th floors. I'm just posting what people were hearing and seeing. There is evidence that there may have been multiple shooters, from where?? That's the question.

I've read a couple reports and saw one video of a guy saying he was hearing sniper fire as well during the incident. So we don't know what exactly he had in the room or who he had helping him in the room.

All we can go by is what the news puts out from the law enforcement briefings and the eye witness accounts from people there. There's just more and more people coming forth that are saying they think there were at least two shooters.

Again, if there was a shooter on the 4th or 6th floors and this was a cover up. Then yes, they could have had a brand new piece of glass ready and waiting to be put in on that floor. I'm not saying that's what happened, but if it is a conspiracy if a person can think it up, then those committing it can make it happen.

Here is as close to a video of the initial shooting as I saw from my co-worker. This shows the initial attack and the steady fire rate sound. No deviation in fire rate and LMG's are known for producing very steady rate of fire. Any automatic is really for that matter, just assault rifles tend to be more sporadic from everything I've seen on a regular assault rifle going full auto.

I love it when the left starts screaming about gun laws. Always gives me an excuse to buy a new gun. Bought a scary black rifle yesterday in 7.62x51.
