Also, do yourself a huge favor and find a Pakistani or Indian restaurant if you never have. I'm wagering that you won't regret it. I'm lucky that the nearest Indian restaurant is in Chattanooga (I'm in Cleveland) and about 20 minutes away. If it were much closer, that would be bad.

Haha, no biggie. Just yanking your chain as well the OP's. I just don't subscribe to the entire "You must speak English and look like me as well" flavor of thought that is held by many. Ultimately, in my opinion, that train of thought is a disservice to us all really. I love how in many countries/cultures, kids by the age of 10 can speak 2+ languages in many instances. I just think that is a good thing.

At places near the U.S.-Mexico border, some signs are bilingual in English and Spanish,[citation needed] and some signs near the U.S.-Canada border are bilingual in English and French.[citation needed] Additionally, large urban centers such as New York City, Chicago and others have bilingual and multilingual signage at major destinations.[citation needed] There are a few English and Russian bilingual signs in western Alaska.[citation needed] In Texas, some signs are required to be in English and Spanish. In Texas areas where there are large numbers of Spanish speakers, many official signs as well as unofficial signs (e.g. stores, churches, billboards) are written in Spanish, some bilingual with English, but others in Spanish only.In 2016, Port Angeles, Washington installed bilingual signs in English and the indigenous Klallam languages to preserve and revitalize the area's Klallam culture.[9] Well...I suppose that depends on where you live. The US doesn't have an official language, although earlier this year a bill was introduced making English so. However, it hasn't really went anywhere: https://www.congress.gov/bill/115th-congress/house-bill/997

What is the national language of The United States of America? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Never been there, cannot give a personal observation. What color is American? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Ok. I recognize this. KZ106, I don’t miss you (ok, like the music they play on there, just seems like they place the same 50 songs on repeat every single day). My parents had that station on all the time. I don’t miss listening to it even though I like the genre. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I have heard the name but admit I cannot specifically pinpoint any of his songs. And I generally like music from the time period! In light of everything else today, I’m firing up that exact album on Apple Music. Seems like a positive thing to do. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

LINKS2K is very right, maybe more so that he knows. I was born in ‘90, so my firsthand knowledge only goes so far back. Guess what? The government was supposed to declare martial law under G.W., Obama, and also already under Trump. Depends on who you listen to under which term. I remember the left claiming it about Bush. I remember the right doing so under Obama. If Obama won that was supposed to start a race war. If he lost, it was also supposed to start one. I won’t deny that things are tense in certain aspects. Many people I work with suggest the country has never been more divided. I always like to respond by asking them if we were more or less divided during the Civil War. The point is, and my only point of this post, is that fear does sell. Whether it is Jones selling his flavor of Koolaid, Fox News or CNN theirs, its all still Koolaid and really bad for you when drunken too richly. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Well, if 500+ people were counted as casualties, some of those people may have sprained an ankle while running, etc. Some of them would have likely just been nicked with a round on a leg/arm, etc and that bullet would still have had enough energy to harm the person behind them as well. However, 200 rounds seems low compared to the reports of multiple rifles, etc. Also, an M-16 has a rate of fire of about 700–950 rounds/min cyclic. If he truly was using a trigger crank mechanism, I imagine the cyclic rate would be lower but still in the hundreds. Even accounting for mag and possibly weapon changes, it seems he would have burned through 200 rounds in a matter of a moment or two. So with that said, who has found any reputable source for exactly how long, from start to the last shot, that he was shooting?

Yeah, I saw about some of his divorce. I just wasn't sure if you meant he was getting more or less out there. I mean, he can't claim this was a false flag can he? If he did, it would mean Trump was behind it.

He was a member that was on TGO until he got banned. Spouted a bunch of Christian Identity stuff and I was wondering if that was whom you referenced earlier in the thread.

Emphasize?

Well, considering that there is seemingly roughly a 10% kill rate of the total number of casualties (based off reported numbers hospitalized), I'd saw it sounds about right and nothing unbelievable or off about it.

Oh yeah, I saw somewhere the first callings of a false flag earlier this morning. I'm somewhat curious to see how Alex Jones approaches the issue since he proclaimed Obama was behind all the other false flag shootings but now he is pretty inline with Trump. I'm not oblivious to the fact that false flags could and probably even do exist to certain degree, but 500-600 "victims" in a crowd of I believe 10,000+, not to mention all the EMS, hospitals, etc that would also be in on it. If one tries to search and find false flags, this seems like the dumbest shooting in recent history to try and believe is one of them. This is of course in response to the "it never really happened" crowd. If someone wants to try and argue that the shooter himself was the false flag and was either a patsy or still alive, then that's entirely different.

I've been spending a bit of time thinking about the why. Unless it turns out he left some sort of manifesto/etc, I think it will just be chalked up to he wanted to do an evil thing. I looked into Jason Aldean. It seems he wasn't really all that politically outspoken, and seemingly wasn't strongly anti or pro Trump. So to me, it seems a stretch to try and connect to to something such as that unless a whole lot more comes out. Pertaining to claims he converted to Islam, I feel like that would leave traces of some sort. As to Antifa and ISIS claiming responsibility even if they weren't, I can understand ISIS going for it because they have little to lose. Would encourage their supporters and even if it turns out that he wasn't Islamic, by then their followers have already moved on to the next thing and care little about fact checking propaganda that encourages them. Antifa, I don't know what their end goal or game plan is but associating themselves with this seems like a really good way to make a lot of enemies very, very fast.

Interesting report: https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/4592774/cops-hunting-asian-woman-over-las-vegas-shooting-that-left-20-dead/ Consider the source, but supposedly a woman was removed from the concert beforehand because she was screaming "They're all around... You're all going to f***ing die today". The article strongly suggests that it was his traveling companion/whatever, Marilou Danley, but I read elsewhere that she was found out of the country and completely involved with the tragedy. Anyone else pick up anything about this supposed woman?

http://gundata.org/blog/post/223-ballistics-chart/ 55 grain would have about 4' drop, travel at about half the velocity compared to its highest velocity, and about 1/5th the original energy. 50+ confirmed dead but 400+ confirmed casualties. Unless the crowd was literally so thick he couldn't miss, he had to unload potentially a few thousand. Right?

Also, I had no idea that sometimes even white wasn't white enough. Something ironically hilarious about that simply fact alone.

Shepard Master?

I truthfully know nothing about such systems, but I imagine that in a fancy hotel, Vegas nevertheless, all alarms would be connected centrally as to allow a quick and immediate response to the exact source of an actual fire. In other words, the fire alarm going off in his room gave responders on the ground floor his room number. I suppose we are lucky in the fact that he didn't have an accomplice, as a second shooter barricaded on the same floor as him but positioned strategically to defend against an entry team could have delayed the response by quite a long time. Honestly, I'm surprised that a SWAT sniper didn't drop him as soon as possible. I imagine that surely the situation and rules of engagement would allow such a thing, even with potential innocents in rooms next door.

I read somewhere that responders were able to locate the room because fire alarms were going off in the room from the smoke generated while shooting.

One of mine gets here today, the other, tomorrow. Have you one in your hands yet? Wondering if someone can confirm Type 1 or Type 2. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I see. What your source proclaiming that that was him during the shooting or an image pulled from some random social media account he had from time passed?
