You're right. Loud concerts can hit nearly 130 dB, but improvements in sound engineering have brought the average down quite a bit. Still louder than a suppressed pistol, though.
what gun control that you are advocating for would have stopped this particular incident?
How about "no guns in casinos"? By police accounts, the guy carried at least 10 guns into the place. That doesn't raise any red flags? "Oh, it's just another white man with 10 guns. He's probably just a Second Amendment enthusiast"
There is no way a pistol with a "silencer" would not be heard very distinctly in a large and crowded venue.
At a crowded Las Vegas concert, the sound level can hit 155 decibels, with average levels of over 120 decibels. A silenced pistol hits maybe 110 decibels, mostly in the higher frequencies which tend to be less noticeable.
it's worth noting that the FBI says that far more people are killed every year with knives, clubs and bare hands that are killed by ANY sort of murder involving a rifle or shotgun.
I've noticed that you don't include handguns in that neat little NRA talking point. Why is that? Why do you compare "knives, clubs and bare hands" to a number that doesn't include the most deadly type of firearm in the United States? Far more people are killed with handguns than all the "knives, clubs, and bare hands", so why did you leave them out?
That long and larger trail of death and injury is just a constant dull roar, so nobody pays attention to it.
The longest and largest trail of death and injury leads back to the all-American handgun. By far. My question is, why did your statement above choose to not pay attention to it?
If he wasn't white, you'd be using a different word for him today.
because they have an ax, and they intend to grind it.
Nope. This is America, goddamit. We don't have axes, we have Bushmaster gas-piston driven AR-15s, with 5IT AAC flash suppressors and 30-round mags, as is our natural-born God-given right, bestowed on us by a loving white Christian God who meant for every crazy white man to have access to weapons. It's right in Bible, you can look it up.
Every industry association, trade group, owners' groups, sporting group... ALL of them... call loudly and routinely for the prevention of mentally unfit people obtaining firearms, and for the rigorous prosecution of anybody that participates in knowingly being part of providing a gun to someone like that
I'll tell you what: you name the objective news organization of your choice and I'll find you the proof that Donald Trump has been a shit president, a shit man, and a shit human being. You've rejected, let's see...Forbes, Chicago Tribune, Tampa Bay Times, Washington Post, New York Times. So tell us where you go to get your unvarnished truth about #Dolt45 and I'll still be able to prove that he's shit all the way down.
He's done an amazing job dealing with three unprecedented natural disasters
He's done a shit job in Puerto Rico and has zero legislative accomplishments to his name. By any objective measure, Trump is an historic failure as a president, as a man, and as a human being.
In 2008, Trump took over the licensing and management of a Puerto Rican golf resort, the Coco Beach Golf and Country Club. But the resort filed for bankruptcy in 2015, leaving Puerto Ricans with nearly $33 million in outstanding bond payments.
30+ years without "net neutrality" regulations, 2 years with. Who here really thinks that the internet is more free today than it was just a few years ago, before Facebook, Google and Twitter flexed the muscle that their de facto monopolies gave them?
For the first half of that, the Internet was not widely commercialized. Was it more free before it was commercialized or after?
Will you join me in condemning commerce on the Internet?
No, everyone who decided to "like" it. That's literally the first line of the first link you posted, telling us that 6,000 people apparently like endangering lots of people by putting acid into ventilation systems and whatnot.
Why, you stupid sonofabitch. You actually believe that "liking" something should make you a suspect in a criminal investigation. No wonder you would support a wannabe fascist as president.
Do you also believe that liking a post about putting people in ovens should make you a suspect? Because I suspect you just might become a suspect.
Sorry, but this is a criminal act that they're investigating. They're allowed to find out who was involved in it and given that #disruptj20 was criminal, they have reasonable suspicion to look at anyone involved.
And by "involved", you mean everyone who ever looked at their Facebook page?

You're citing Project Veritas videos as evidence, dude. How many times do you need James O'Keefe to be exposed as a fraudster before you'll learn?
What a load of false flag horseshit. See if you can spot the direct contradiction in the first two sentences.
Did U Know the Cubans also mind-controlled Health and Human Services Secretary Tom Price and forced him to use private jets on the taxpayer's dime while Puerto Rico died? Gotta watch them Cubans. I've been their and let me tell you, their sonic weapons will make you dance uncontrollably.
Hallo fellow internet commentators! I am here to assuring you that of course the Kremlin is having nothing to do with such nonsense.
OK, you're doing it wrong. You're supposed to post this using a userID of "BradFromUSA" with a stock photo of a hot girl or member of the US military as your avatar. Your bio is supposed to read something like, "USA military vet and totally American guy #2A #JesusIsLord #MAGA Lover of USA freedoms, #NASCAR".
But to make it realistic, you should turn off the location tag so it doesn't show that you're in St Petersburg.
A 'proposal' is still a long ways away from a bill being submitted in the legislature.
Exactly. And that's what makes all the outrage about "You can have my '83 Citation when you wrest it from my cold dead hands" so ridiculous.
I don't know if you've eve been to California, but there's a little-known reason why they're so big on the environment: Because it's really, really, really nice here and they're trying to keep it that way. It's approximately the same as when you walk into someone's home and they ask you to remove your shoes. Do you say, "Fuck you, I'm wearing these muddy boots on your carpet and you can't do anything about it!" or do you take off your goddamn shoes?
It's a well-kept secret that California is one of the most beautiful places in the world (especially the Coast. you can keep Bakersfield). They're trying to come up with ways to not fuck it all up. Good for them.

The Chicago Tribune is a conservative Republican newspaper.
Trump has golfed more than twice as much as President Obama.

Which is what, golfing?
At least these inmates aren't using their cellphones to start a nuclear war with North Korea via Twitter.
There's no surfing in Bakersfield.
Then:

Trump needs a quick war he can win, and he needs it yesterday. His string of failures is starting to make the yahoos restless.
There will be a Trump Hotel & Casino in Havana by the end of next year.
