my morbid curiosity consumes me. I can't help but wonder if he had multiple full auto weapons, or just multiple magazines. In my mind's eye, I see an SAW with a 200 round drum, with an AR variant at his side.

Not yet. Mostly just various people imparting their own biases.

Lots of Casino links and gambling. Could be politics. Could be money.
He was a professional gambler. Made his income that way and did very well for himself. I’m not sure if that was a motive. He was too good with numbers and money to lose it all in one place.

Dunno, it all sounded like the same gun to me
He most definitely reloads at least 2 times though from what I've watched and listened to

Looking in twitter and FB, I really hate the assumptions people are making. Not because they’re insulting him (I could care less about that) but everyone is getting it so wrong. He wasn’t Muslim. He wasn’t liberal. He wasn’t a trumpite really (not that I can recall anyway).

Sorry for not being more detailed. Trying to not make assumptions here. Just relating what I knew about the guy to keep the dialog at least mildly accurate.

All I truly know is that I feel awful right now and no amount of fighting over gun laws, political views, or speculations about what happened will bring those folks back to their families. Truly a sad day for everyone involved.

People always try to fit tragic events into a category that supports their world views. Nothing new there.

I appreciate the information you've given us so far. Can't be easy.

NY post, CBS, CNN, Fox have all reached out for statements and info. We’re not saying anything until we calm down.

I know but it’s a different feeling when it happens so close to home (ie within the family).

I've been watching it all night. These on-scene reporters have zero tact.
They're disgusting vultures. When I started seeing this news here and on social media, I didn't even turn the TV over to the news because I didn't want to watch reporters preying on people for 'news'.

He was clearly chinese, by which I mean a manchurian candidate, likely left behind by the Obama administration to tarnish our great leader, The Donaldator's impeccable image. Obama is disgusting.

And why is there no visible muzzle flash from the window on any of the videos?

Yep. It's bizarre how when these things happen, literally the first thing idiots do is try to assign motivations, despite not possessing any facts. People would rather invent a narrative to satisfy their own biases and prejudices than accept that random shit can occur and that as of right now, we don't know what he was thinking.

Whether this cocksucker was a white supremacist or a militant vegan, the main thing is that he was clearly a piece of shit. There have always been crazy, murderous fuckwits and there always will be.
Within 15 minutes of the shooting, I saw multiple (like 20+) tweets accusing some "white supremacist neo nazi' named Sam Hyde of this. Obviously no one knew shit that soon after the attack took place, but that didn't stop people from trying to further an agenda, and divide the country further. It's disgusting.

It happens on both sides my friend. I’ve already seen folks talking about how he was a crazy left wing antifa sympathizer and if you knew that guy you would know it’s as far from the truth as could be.

Moral of the story, don’t believe any story that hasn’t come from the LVMPD directly at this point. Everyone else is making assumptions.

Wish your family the best in all of this man. Going to be rough for them for a while I'm afraid.

I agree with IschKabibble @IschKabibble
I would refuse all statements sans a single written one, if you feel so inclined, expressing your empathy for those harmed. All further details will need to come from LVPD. Do not talk to them. Media won't change the investigation and the news cycle isn't built such that your input will increase healing and empathy.
