    O/T Busy night for the terrorists

    After 2 deaths in Marseilles by stabbings and attempted killings in Canada by a Somali militant using a truck.......we now have an ongoing situation in Las Vegas (20 deaths and 100s injured, 12 critical).

    Still too early to tell if it is a Muslim/ISIS attack in Vegas, but they have just released the name of an Asian accomplice that they are searching for.

    I'm sure that record can be broken time and again under Donald 'I back the gun lobby' Trump.
    Proof, if proof was needed, that those who don't learn the lessons of history are doomed to repeat them.

    Little Donald seems strangely quiet on this one. If it was a Muslim terror attack you just know his Twitter page would be red hot. If it turns out that this atrocity is down to a home grown nutter what will his reaction be?

    He cannot say much....the NRA/Gun Lobby pump billions of $$$$$ into campaign funds of both parties......nothing will change, US politics = money

    My main concern is, according to Sky, the 500,000 Brits that visit Vegas each year......likely that some may be amongst the dead

    I was just watching the news and it said there is no sanction on getting automatic guns in Vegas... what kinda law is that? its shocking how easy it is to get a gun over there, we go to a vending machine for a fizzy drink and they go to one for an Uzi!!!

    I'm not a huge fan of Trump, but you can hardly blame him for a US disease.......if Obama couldn't do anything to curb this problem, no-one can

    According to Sky, Trump is pretty much middle-of-the-road on gun ownership.......the main issues are not handguns or shotguns, it's their ridiculous obsession with assault weapons.....this guy was emptying multiple 30 or 40-round mags into a crowd from the 32nd floor of a hotel, that's some serious firepower.......what possible use does the average Joe have for purchasing a semi-automatic machine-gun?.....it's not "protection" surely?

    History has shown that Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance and the gospel of envy - it's only inherent value is the equal sharing of misery.

    Winston S Churchill (circa 1945)
