Two casino shootings in the last three days in Las Vegas

I live in Las Vegas. We rely completely on tourism so obviously any type of security to the extreme of metal detectors, frisking etc. would just cost the town a fortune in tourism. People are here to have a good time and let go and easy movement from one casino to the next is essential, particularly for the downtown area which would be the area most in need of such a policy.

The target was innocent lives. And the sicko took plenty of them. It was unfortunately a soft target.

We live in sick world these days LargeMarge. That is my point. Plenty of soft targets out there. Our way of life has been disrupted since the first piece of shit hijacked a plane. Then it's gone downhill from there.

I wish we didn't live in a world where sickos are looking for soft targets. Sick world.

Quoting this for posterity here

Also Columbine occurred before 9/11 dude

You think I'm being absurd by saying churches and casinos are soft targets?

I think you are being retarded.

I beg to differ Sir. MANY ushers at churches in my small rural country town are packing heat.

We get it dude. Very easy to kill a lot of people in Vegas according to you. Thanks for the update for the 10th time
There hasn’t been one mass shooting in a casino ever. Has there even been a gun murder? Such a “soft target”

There have been more mass shootings on MILITARY BASES than casinos. Casinos have ZERO
Take your L and move on Mr Mass Shooting Expert

I would say it's a good thing the "mass shooting" expert isn't in charge of setting policies for Las Vegas. Between his ridiculous comments and the other guy showing a truck blowing up (as though that has anything to do with a Las Vegas casino) , the city would be in complete lockdown mode 24 hours a day (and martial law would probably be in effect). This is exactly the knee jerk reaction this is not necessary.

The El Cortez shooting was on the 5th floor of the hotel. Fortunately it wasn't on the casino floor which could have endangered the famous "Innocent Bystanders". Binion's back in the day armed all of their security guards. If you tried to rob the place or took a gun out in the casino there was a pretty good chance you would end up dead in the alley behind the casino. Las Vegas was a very safe place for civilians when the mob ran it.
