Gun control

[braalian]

The Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) claimed on Monday that the man who opened fire on concertgoers in Las Vegas, killing at least 50 people, was acting on behalf of the group, but offered no evidence.

The terror group said in a pair of statements released by its pseudo-news agency Amaq, citing anonymous sources, that the gunman, identified by police as 64-year-old Stephen Paddock, converted to Islam several months ago and carried out the attack, "in response to calls to target states of the coalition" battling ISIS.

The statement offered no proof of a link with Paddock, nor did it identify him by name.

ISIS has released similar vague claims of responsibility following previous attacks in Europe and the U.S., and on some occasions they have followed up with recorded video statements from terror attackers pledging allegiance to the group.

On other occasions, however, no links have been revealed, showing the terror group is willing to try and capitalize on an opportunity for publicity where no tangible support or contact existed.

LVMPD says the shooter was known to them.

Just wait, it is all still coming out. I would guess the info came from the Las Vegas Metro Police. KLAS doesn't report fake info.

"Islamic State claims Las Vegas attack, says shooter converted to Islam months ago, but provides no evidence."

Hopefully, we'll get more definitive information soon.

The same can happen in your precious England under your current extremely strict gun control.

It wouldn't but it did happen to occur in my country because a load of dick heads think its alright have guns. You have a load of dick heads in charge who are more interested in making money than protecting life, the President, Charlton and so on down the line of the famous in their lunchtimes

The shooter is one your alt-left boys, he was a Muslim.

Typical bulldog crap
Not reported as yet, not substantiated, the sort of rumour that is fake news and the way you jump on board with your Muslim quote makes you a dirty racist down to your toes
If I were to say the he was one of the gun lobby protesting about having his guns removed because he was unstable, that would be fake news, but its as valid as the shit you spout

It also happened in France, which has just a strict gun control as England. The common denominator is Muslims.

The Muslim shooter could have done the same damage with an English legal single shot hunting rifle or a Muslim style pressure cooker bomb. The problem is Islam and the alt-left that supports Muslims.

In retrospect Sandy Hook marked the end of the US gun control debate. Once America decided killing children was bearable, it was over.

The only people who think killing children is bearable are Planned Parenthood and their supporters.

The House is slated to vote this week to ease curbs on silencers which critics say makes it harder to detect source of gunfire in mass shootings

There is no such thing as a silencer. I think you mean a suppressor. They do not silence a rifle. Again you show your ignorance.

The main policy response to mass shootings is to lower the flag to half-staff.

What does the left think the response should be to another Muslim attack on the USA?

 

[Drifterwood]

Obviously you don't. A case with ten rifles and only 500 rounds of ammo would be fairly small and unremarkable.

I do actually. But if you consider that fairly small and unremarkable then there is your problem.

An average woman's luggage could carry more than 10 rifles and 500 rounds, easily.

The Las Vegas shooting was not a Muslim attack.

Oh my god, well not my god really, but pro life and pro gun, isn't that at variance?

Boston, Paris, Orlando, Las Vegas. Islam has no place in the west.
