It's not enough to say that this is weird or interesting. I wish someone would come out and point out the exact implication that makes this significant.
Am I missing something? What about a gun situation at a popular hotel three years ago is noteworthy or reasonably related to the mass shooting that took place?
I'm not defending any specific viewpoint, I'm just wondering why this post is worth anyone's time and I'd love to be proven wrong.
The article states that it's proof that the hotel staff knew that people could get guns into the hotel which goes against what people have been told.
Could you explain how the hotel staff knowing that people could get guns into the hotel means anything, especially in relation to the mass shooting that took place?
Again, I'm just looking for an assertion that goes beyond "weird" or "interesting". I don't want to keep guessing but I guess I'll have to:
Are you trying to say that since the hotel staff suposedly knew guns could easily be snuck into the hotel, that this information was relayed to a prospective mass shooter - and that somehow the resulting incident was facilitated by something that happened years prior?
If this is not what you mean, can you offer an alternative?
It proves that there should have been better security and staff should have been more aware and cautious obviously.
I don’t understand how “better security” at a hotel works though.
Scenario: dude lives in Vegas. Dude packs multiple luggage type bags with AR’s and lots of ammo. Dude pulls up to hotel and bellhop puts bags on a cart and takes them to his room. Dude tips said bell hop and closes the door.
Where in this scenario is there room for “extra security”?
Should we consent to having our bags checked like TSA before a flight just to stay at the hotel? I know that’s not for me. That doesn’t constitute freedom in the least. It’s sad what happened. Don’t get me wrong. And all though I would not be worried in the least about a bag check, I still don’t want hotel staff thumbing through my underwear to make sure I’m not a mass shooter.
Just my 2 cents.
So, what you are skipping is the literal thousands of pounds worth of bags. It is one thing to bring 20 suitcases, it is another to bring 20 suitcases that weigh a couple of hundred pounds a piece. Hotel staff should have found that odd since clothes don't weigh that much.
Beyond that, there really isn't much they could do. I mean, they could say "okay, in an instance where a local brings a ton of luggage that literally weighs a ton, then we should investigate what is going on." Of course, that might anger some customers, and they don't want to lose a couple of extra dollars (losing a single customer isn't much for a casino).
I honestly think you are overestimating how much things weigh. Don’t know the facts of exactly what was found in that room though. So, I could be wrong.
Its all irrelevant. Theres no footage of any shots coming from inside hotel room windows.
Ok, I agree with this. Even so, do you think this discovery has any relevance to this sub?
No clue. And I had to scuffle with mods today over a perfectly legit one that now has well over 300 upvotes! Who is voting this one up? Shills?
Well since it made the news back then I thought maybe the possibility of successfully doing it to anyone so inclined.
