Pray for Las Vegas: Americans Are Heartbroken
Yesterday, a gunman opened fire on the Route 91 Harvest festival that was occurring on the Vegas strip. (sensitive material, please be advised)
He managed to kill over 50 people making it the largest mass shooting in history by a single gunman, the Orlando nightclub shooting coming in second. The gunman, Stephen Paddock, used one of the hotel rooms in the Mandalay Bay hotel as a way to look out and shoot. After killing dozens of people, he killed himself as police found him upon entering his room. Paddock was a gambler with no military background. His brother commented and stated that he wasn’t sure where his brother bought the weapons. The hotel was on lock down for many hours. Employees have offered water, pastries and coffee to those who were held inside.
