50% hits on a point target is considered "effective". He fired into a densely-packed group.I'm not sure I really care about this argument. But for a guy going on his first rampage how did you come to the conclusion that 43.8% is low? Did that include the number of rounds he fired aimlessly through the door of his hotel room?The LV shooter fired 1100 rounds, with 480 hits (58 Killed, 422 wounded) for a 43.6% hit rate,
This is impressively low, given the target and distance.
Indeed, the casualties caused by LV shooter were -limited- by the fact he used a number of AR15s with bump stocks - he could have easily killed and wounded significantly more people with a different choice of weapon.
Now, no one knows for sure why this guy did what he did, and what he did made no sense at all - but it is clear, he deliberately chose to buy and use AR15s in lieu of other more effective weapons - weapons he certainly knew about and had access to.
The question: Why?
We'll never know, of course.
But, given what could have happened, we should be thankful he chose his weapons poorly.
I don't know if the 1100 includes the 35 or so he fired through the door; either way, not much changes.
I believe so, There is the distance of the two windows and the number of shots for someone of this age and also not in perfect health.I don't really think that would have been that large of a factor.I do not think he could have shoot from one window to another because of his age and also his state of health.OK, but I'm not sure of your point.Yes, but if he did shoot from the two broken Windows there is also a distance between the two.He could have used a tripod-mounted gun.
No, but shooting for 13 minutes (I think) from one window to another, which is kind far away, still needs to be in better shape than Paddock.I do not think he could have shoot from one window to another because of his age and also his state of health.OK, but I'm not sure of your point.Yes, but if he did shoot from the two broken Windows there is also a distance between the two.He could have used a tripod-mounted gun.
Is walking that difficult?
Train at what? Shooting fish in a barrel?How about for someone who didn't train for this? It's quite odd that you say the deadliest shooting in U.S. history was ineffective
It was, by any standard, nowhere near as deadly as it could have been, not in least part because of the firearms he chose.The guy had no military experience, he went to the shooting ranges which in no way is preparation for a mass shooting yet he managed to be better at it than anyone else. Not because he was skilled but because of the tools he had.

During his last months, Paddock reportedly smelled of alcohol from early morning, and appeared despondent. He was reported to have filled three prescriptions for the anti-anxiety drug Valium, in 2013 and again in 2016, and finally 50 tablets of 10-milligrams each in June 2017, four months before the shooting.The chief medical officer of the Las Vegas Recovery Center said the effects of the drug can be magnified by alcoholI believe so, There is the distance of the two windows and the number of shots for someone of this age and also not in perfect health.I don't really think that would have been that large of a factor.I do not think he could have shoot from one window to another because of his age and also his state of health.OK, but I'm not sure of your point.Yes, but if he did shoot from the two broken Windows there is also a distance between the two.
Was there something wrong with his trigger finger?
What exactly were his health issues?

Funny the University of Texas shooter didn't killer nearly as many people and it wouldn't have been possible for him to do so. Plus that guy actually had training as he was a Marine.
The LV shooter by contrast didn't have any training and all he had to do was point and shoot. Again, deadliest mass shooting in U.S. history and you guys are arguing he didn't do it very well.
Fucking morons.

The media slipped up and referred to the country music concert as a "Trump Rally"
The FBI with all it's vast psychological resources couldn't (didn't want to) determine that the shooter was a left winger with a psychological hangup against conservative (mostly) kids.

Bump stocks are a fucking joke, he could’ve been much more effective with the bolt action with center mass shooting. He had all the Time in the world
