While Trump is addressing the horrible acts that occurred in Las Vegas and giving solace to the families and the nation, HIllary Clinton is using it as a political platform against the NRA...

This is no time to be political, and there is no way to prevent things like this happening. It is easy to acquire assault guns and no law against guns is going to stop people from getting these weapons. Apparently the shooter was in the military and has PTSD.

aside from that, this is a incredibly sad and horrible thing. It could happen to ANY of us, especially during concerts. :( 

Lace up my boots, throw on some leather and cruise.

In 2012 America decided killing children wasn't enough to change the gun laws in this country. The debate ended there.

Did you say the same about Trump after Pulse shooting, how he wanted "congrats"? :sharon: That was worse worse so much worse.

I doubt we'll ever actually change anything. And I'm so sick of seeing "you can't prevent this". We're the only country that deals with this crap on a daily basis. Other nations have found ways to prevent it so obviously there's something wrong here.

Whimsical bitch

So many Americans are ignorant about the rest of the world. They truly believe this is the best country in the world. If we're going through it, it MUST be worse elsewhere *rolls eyes*

No, it's not terrorism because we don't know his motivations. :nails:

This debate was had a few pages back and didn't have a clear answer then and it won't have a clear answer now. Especially considering who one of you is.

That's how Nevada defines it, not how the US Government and everyone else defines it. And by that definition, even killing a single person, which is great bodily harm, could be called 'terrorism'.

This is the Nevadan definition of terrorism, but it doesn't override the government/dictionary definition of terrorism.

It says to general population, so no, killing a single person isn't enough to define an act as terrorism.
