14 shot at Vegas hookah parlor; 1 dead and 2 critically hurt

Las Vegas police say 14 people were shot before dawn at a hookah lounge and that one man died and two people suffered critical injuries. Police Capt.

"Fourteen people were shot during a party at a Las Vegas hookah lounge early Saturday, including one man who was killed and two others who were critically wounded.

The shooting happened about 3:15 a.m. and preliminary information indicated there was a party during which two people got into an altercation and exchanged gunfire, said police Capt. Dori Koren."


14 shot. Only 1 dead. I guess that's good news?
 
Like most loser criminals, and a great many cops, they seem to have no idea how to shoot.
 
Guns. Again.

On average, a person dies of gunshot in te United States of America every 30 minutes. One death every 30 minutes. 48 deaths every hour. 335 deaths every week. 1,440 deaths every month. 17,500 every year.

Our present laws and their level of enforcement result in this level of deaths by gunshot.

17,500 deaths per year. Every year.

Regards. Stay safe 'n well . . . 'n un-shot.
 

You can add another 24,000 deaths by firearm suicide.

Or a couple more dead by the good guys with guns shooting good guys taking their guns out, and/or collateral damage of innocents.
 
If I was guessing at 3 am there was probably a lot of alcohol that fueled this.
 
i think this tread proves what a lot of us say.

if 25 get shot and nobody dies it's not huge news. if 10 get shot and 5 die it's big news.



but here's the deal. in the first case 25 people were still shot (and some could be disabled for life).

Plenty of states where no permit to carry a concealed gun is needed nor any training.

That’s on the shooters. If your serious about self defense with a gun continued training is recommended. If you just pull your piece and fire and hit someone prepare for the repercussions.
 
I suspect the gun banners were hoping for more-unless the shooter is someone other than a white male

Oh that's lovely. In a hypothetical situation someone "pulls their piece" and starts firing and kills an innocent, and your response is "prepare for consequences?"

Shame that others are injured/killed, but hey - the shooter will face "repercussions" so it's all good.
 
Just as with any decision, there are consequences.
Hit them with a car, do you then blame the car?

Then the right-wing jackasses who support those insane laws wonder why gun violence and deaths increase...

more stupid nonsense-in the last 30 years over 100 million more guns were bought and most states now allow concealed carry-22 without a license and gun violence has decreased substantially. stop lying

A shooter?

what part of the constitutional prohibition on infringing on keeping and bearing arms are you unable to fathom? what part of the bill of rights protects driving a car?
 
Does anything good ever happen at a hookah lounge at 3 AM?
