72 minute rampage is one of the headlines at drudgereport;  in case, anyone wondered about the time frame, I certainly did.  Especially when people were saying, why did it take so long to get the guy. I had not heard how long this lasted.

damn..that was a long time...I am surprised more people weren't killed....

But, then on the side, it says "bullets rained down for 10 minutes", that sounds more like it.

I'm not sure if Drudge has crossed his wires up or what.

Only so many targets.  I'll bet that most of the casualties occurred in the first 5 minutes or so. Not that it is all that important when they occurred.

That timeline has to be wrong.   It took 30 mins for the first response?

72 minutes .... not only am I surprised more people weren't killed..... I don't understand how/why no security anywhere located him and ended this sooner.

He was shooting fish in a barrel.

I wonder what greeted him on the other side.

They had to go through the hotel floor by floor in the general location of where the gunfire was coming from.  In these situations it takes a long time to search and clear the floors.  If it hadn't been for the smoke detector going off it would have taken them longer to pinpoint the room.

I haven't heard they went floor by floor.  I heard they showed up at the hotel and were told the fire alarm was going off in that room.

Seems like it would have been faster and easier to put a floodlite on the building and see which windows were blown out to determine which room he was in.  Then again, there had to already be plenty of light in the area.   :shrug:

Ahhh ok...it was speculation on my part on how they would do it if they weren't sure where the shooter was.  Gotta remember the cops don't always do it like the military would clear a building.

That makes more sense than some of the reasoning.

TOSsers were saying that last night.  I dared take a visit...and quickly left.

Character still matters.  It always matters.

I wear a mask as an exercise in liberty and love for others.  To see it as an infringement of liberty is to entirely miss the point.  Be kind.

The alphabet networks this morning said the shooting went on for 4 and a half minutes. But it was also said there were pauses - perhaps to reload or switch to another weapon?

Still lots of conflicting info out there.  Probably won't know the whole story for some time -- if ever.

Indeed.  The Liberals have forgotten that there are times in life where they need to STFU with the political drumbeat and act like decent human beings.

But right now that seems like a bar too high for them to reach.
