It sounded too uniform to not be automatic, to me. It sounded like a few mag dumps with a pause to change mags. I suppose it could have been an echo trigger or a bump fire stock, but my guess is FA.

A video in this story from a person with the name randy_kindred_girl or something to that effect is recording and to me it sounds like you can hear the bullets whizzing by. Pretty crazy shit.

Only one person saying this so far, according to the article, so take with a grain of salt

https://townhall.com/tipsheet/leahbarko ... e-n2389470
Some concertgoers were reportedly warned about the shooting at a Route 91 Harvest country music festival, which left at least 50 dead and more than 200 injured so far.
According to one witness, a woman who matches the description of the shooter’s roommate, Marylou Danley, taunted some concertgoers about 45 minutes before the attack that they were “all going to die.”
There are criminals among us who are both homicidal and incorrigible. Their parents took a shot at civilizing them and failed. Their school teachers took a shot at them and failed. The odds are overwhelming that government welfare programs and penal institutions took a shot at them and failed. If it ever becomes your turn to take a shot at them, don’t fail.

No evidence so far...but IS claimed responsibility, said he was a recent convert and one of their soldiers. Reporters who regularly cover IS say when they claim an attack is it usually reliable. But again no evidence to support it so far.

No real evidence of any sort of motive or anything else so far...but that hasn’t stopped anyone (cough Hillary) from blaming the NRA and calling for more gun control.

MSNBC will probably give her a big fat position
CBS has fired the network’s legal executive who wrote on social media that she is “not even sympathetic” to victims of Sunday’s Las Vegas shooting and referred to country music fans as “Republican gun toters.”

Yup. Paul Ryan had already said he didn’t feel now was the “right time” to bring national reciprocity up for a vote before...sure as hell ain’t gonna think any pro gun legislation should come up now

Doesn't matter what his political leanings were, even if he had a Bernie Sanders altar that he sacrifice babies to the MSM would still label him a right-wing Trump supporter

Apparently, the word "religion" Is no longer PC. I've seen several references to his "belief system" so far.

Just reading through several news outlets, after seeing it several times it kind of caught my attention. USA Today, maybe Fox, a couple of other links I came across.
