BBC reporting two dead - which this early on means unfortunately it could be a big death toll in the end.

Looks like it could be another Islamic State attack - how the hell can we stop them ?

Without sounding morbid as this is tragic if this is indeed an Islamic terrorist attack its hardly surprising and surprised since 9/11 America has not been attacked more. In a country where you can buy guns with very little checks if you really wanted to cause carnage and mass death you could quite easily.
Sadly as above there is no way of stopping this and you just have to hope its never you or your loved ones that get caught up in it. That however doesn't mean you live your life in fear and don't do the things you want to do in life. That's what this scum want.

The world's gone mad hasn't it ? What can have prompted a local resident to take such horrific action against innocent people. At least it wasn't Islamic State on this occasion, but that is scant consolation for the victims and those caught up in such an awful event.

They are searching for a female accomplice who is described as Asian...But has a non Asian name...I think this could just be a domestic nut job rather than anything to do with The Religion of Peace.

The shooter targeted a country music concert, could be a nut case anti Trump person looking to take out what they perceive to be Trump supporters ? there are many unhinged individuals on the left these days.

Another nut job with access to an automatic weapon.
It's just way too easy in the US - simply buy a gun and pull the trigger in a crowded place. Waste of time talking about gun controls, the US has a gun obsession and it's part of their culture. No amount of mass killings will change their view on this - the suggested solution will involve arming more people.

Over 500 million people who can buy an assault rifle with their beans and their bog roll.
I'm surprised these things don't happen hourly there.

Can't go upsetting the gun lobby. They pretty much hold sway over most aspects of the voting system, or that's the impression at least.

Last time there was a mass killing, Trump suggested that if more people had guns, the shooter would have been killed sooner. I wonder if Trump will suggest something similar this time.

I can't imagine as it's just a nut with a gun. This fella has stocked up on ammo & booked himself into an elevated 'snipers position' above a country music concert. I've seen people from the concert saying a woman was walking around beforehand telling them they were all going to die. Definately sounds pre-meditated to me, and more than likely political, and therefore an act of terrorism.

" Warmest condolences " in tweet from Trump. Warmest? You can say " heartfelt " or "deepest" but warmest!

To be honest who gives a shit about the nutter gunman or what his motives were when again hundreds of peoples lives have been ended or changed forever.
There is something fundamentally wrong in this world when anyone wants to kill a fellow human being.
The lunatics as they say have taken over the asylum.
If you banned guns they would use knives, explosives, chemicals anything, what we need to ban is NUTTERS and that I'm afraid is not an easy task especially when half of them appear to be running a country.

ISIS propaganda agency are claiming the shooter is one of their soldiers who converted to Islam a few months ago. Sounds rather dubious at this stage but who knows...
