In the wake of the tragedy in Las Vegas here is something to take
your mind off the bad news:
"Oh say can you see
My eyes if you can
Then my hair's too short"
----------Hair by the Cowsills
May the Good Lord above shine His Light upon this tragedy. My thoughts and prayers are with them.

I live approximately 140 miles from Las Vegas and lived there for many years while studying at UNLV. Obviously I have many friends there....still have not tracked them all down.
....our main question is, WHY,WHY would anyone do such a thing ??
From the information we have now it would be appear he wanted to commit suicide. He apparently spent a number of days gambling
alot (he was a millionaire). After the gambling he opened fire on the crowd at the concert and then took his own life. 59 dead, more than 500 injured. And the death toll could very well increase. Between the hotel and his house he had 49 guns a number of them modified to work as an automatic. The whole thing is scary.
I think that it is now becoming a contest amongst these mentally ill people to see who can go down as the greatest mass murderer. Very sick.
Yes, very sick. Terrible. There are more than just "theories" in circulation about this that appear to have some genuine validity to them. You won't here any of this on your local news as well as read it in your local main street media newspapers. I feel sorry for what is happening all around us and am thankful that I was born when I was. Wishing all of you guys here at the MLHH well and nice to see that this site is still available after so many years for men desiring to and having long hair. Good luck to each and every one of you.

After all this guy (Alex Jones) is the one who insists that Newtown was a fake. (Newtown is the guy who went into a school and
killed all those first graders in Connecticut.)

Hi Walter,
Nice to see you check in! But wish under better circumstances! As a dialysis patient with terminal kidney disease, I sure can't offer any explanation. Very very sad. I found the following article interesting though.
On a different note, I want to know why in the heck Tom Petty had to go! Now that is also very sad! May he free fall in Peace forever!
You take care of yourself Walter until your next de-lurking!

Ted..."
Thanks Ted.....as a moderator, I check in(the back room)twice a day...but rarely post. If you folks had to hear my daily opinions, that would be the end of the board ! giggle
Keep Well my Friend
Walter I think that might be the case with many of us! But, then again, you know what they say about opinions...
I thank you for keeping this board going along with the other moderators. And you please stay well also my friend!

The main question, why would anyone do such a thing?
To become famous.
One thing they need to do in these shootings is to never name
the shooter (to avoid making the shooter famous.) Deprive the shooter the publicity of the act.
