Las Vegas shooters laptop found in his room was missing it's hard drive.

Move along nothing to see here.
Yeah and why would somebody bring a laptop without a hard drive? :bigear:
Security. You can boot from an SD card or USB stick, do all your work, and then remove the card / stick and continue on your business. OS and all files stay with you.

Not saying that's the case here, but it's something folks do.
because it's a Chromebook and they don't know what it is?
Lol
that makes sense. I thought maybe the two guys doing the shooting took it after they killed the patsy. but a SD or usb stick is easy as pie and leaves no files.

Re: Las Vegas Mandalay Bay Active Shooter

tucker just had some info, that hit me odd.
the rifles were different brands, i think he said nine different brands.
I am brand loyal, Springfield or colt. but i could see many different brands.

hopefully we as the sheep get to see all the evidence and tapes.

Re: Las Vegas Mandalay Bay Active Shooter

Prayers to the family of the fallen and injured. ATTA BOY to the LEOs' and responders.


scanned through and have a few questions. Not to irritate, just to clarify or get my head around how this dude felt to be this evil.

he was up on 32nd floor (320 to 400 feet up). that put him at what 1000 to 1500 yards from the people.
So you think he planned this long before the weds before he checked in? i bet at least 6 months ago, he was planning .

If i call the hotel and request room X on floor X, will it be honored? Most likely ??? i am not a first time guest. obviously research was done on which rooms or elevations provided the best vantage point.
easy to see what venues are in town any day of the week.

when i traveled every week for the Big G, i could ask a hotel for a particular room or floor with no problems. Especially if i was a frequent visitor.

its reported he stayed in this hotel OFTEN, he knew the lay out, he had money to buy as many weapons as he needed.
thank GOD he was not a better marksman or the death toll would be much higher.

getting rifles in is easy as walking. Golf bags and fishing gear containers are a very easy way to go. i have never had a hotel ask if firearms were in my gear. As part of my travel gear, along with my personal suitcases, I rolled a huge pelican case we affectionately named the body bag, as it was big enough for two carcasses. No one ever questioned it. except TSA, and the poor guy that had to load it in the plane. But this guy drove in.

72 minutes, barricaded doors, set up his own cameras...lots of work for one guy to do in 3.5 days... how much if any was pre-positioned? did he do a spy thing and hide items in a hole in a wall or ceiling? from a previous trip?
its easy to hide "things" in a room away from prying eyes of housekeepers, in a suite.
just saying he would have been busy busy busy for three days setting up.

so many questions for this event. I have trouble thinking it was a one man job to set up.
sure would like to see the hotel cameras footage..i bet its very revealing.
