no. the shooter was a thousand yards up in a window. if everyone was armed many possible innocents would have been shot. use your head,

dont confuse feeling with thinking.
Actually, it was 500 yards.

At 500 yards, an AR15 bullet (which is what he was firing) will hit you about 1.4 seconds BEFORE you ever hear it. What's more, from that distance and elevation, the sound will spread out so much that it will sound like it's coming from everywhere at once.

Nevada is an open carry state. The odds are that there were at least 100 armed people in that crowd. Probably a lot more than that, but I'm being very conservative.

It didn't matter. Nobody knew where the shots were coming from, nobody could tell, and when that happens you run like hell. A gun does you no good if you have no target.

It wasn't until quite a while after it was all over than anybody knew where the shots had come from.

It doesn't. But being racist likely means you are republican. How many racists are voting Hillary or Obama, defending Black Lives Matter, fighting against racial gerrymandering and voter ID Laws, or fighting for DACA/illegal immigrant rights?

The answer is 0, they are all voting Republican. Republican legislators jump at any opportunity to appeal to these people by blowing the dog whistle.
Obama was President for 8 years the racists didn't stop him but then this crazy old white woman comes out and all the racists run out of the hills to vote for Trump..... Likely story please tell me more.bongsmilie

Obama angered the racists. Obviously you are uneducated, but there is such a thing as political backlash.

But this is just another straw man from our RIU dumbfuck twonumbnuts. I already stated that being Republican doesn't make you racist, but being racist means you vote Republican. Dumbfuck.
I personally thought Obama did a shit job the first term I just liked him better than Romney.

It still doesn't work. There's really no way to work 'de facto' into that sentence and have it even reasonably used, let alone properly used.
Can you explain a little further? I'm referring to the why certain neighborhoods are almost entirely impoverished blacks.

Slavery was in and of itself a segregated society from the very beginning. You can't have a situation of de facto segregation in a society that has been segregated from the outset.

What's more, a de facto situation can never occur in a mandated situation as the statement also describes.

The sentence as a whole is a complete, total failure.

do you believe that everyone being armed in the crowd would have likely caused more pain or stopped this attack?

Learn to read. I already said there were plenty of armed people already in the crowd. It made no difference at all. It never has.

To date, 544 people have died due to mass shootings since the year 2000. We are the most heavily armed society in the world. Not one single armed person even acted in a single one of those situations.

That makes the score -

Mass shooters: 544
Gun nuts: 0

This was an ideological shooting. Things are building up across the net. This isn't a matter about a firearm. It's a matter why the idiot used them to murder people. A specific selection of people. One then more shooter has been reported from the beginning.

People ain't buying the agenda.

right, just making the point that 1000 yards away, or your stated 500, point being the statement made earlier (not by you) about if everyone was armed they could shoot back and prevent this tragedy.
