    Nothing confirmed. Supposedly, ISIS is claiming the guy converted to Islam months ago, but that doesn't mean he did.

    No they haven't. Nobody has a motive yet. It's probably something stupid like divorce or losing a bunch of money on slots.

    When asked by a reporter if it was an act of terrorism, Sheriff Lombardo said: “No, not at this point. We believe it was a local individual. He resides here locally.

    You had better pay your guild dues before you forget. You are 113 months behind.

    I guess it depends on which they. I've seen the term quite a bit. The Undersheriff of the Vegas Sheriff's Department called it domestic terrorism as well.

    I've seen literally no one say that. Post a link.

    Next time I'll go ahead and just post the LMGTFY link, since it is super easy to find.

    No motive on the part of the killer has been discovered so far, but local police have said they didn't have prior contact with the 64-year-old Vegas resident and no sources close to the investigation have suggested ideological, religious, or terroristic motivation. Public records indicate that Paddock had a hunting license, was a pilot, and had a lawsuit against a casino years ago.

    The President will be speaking on it soon. Originally they said 10:30 EST, but maybe he has new information or something.
