I think the real shame here is back before iphones you would have some great still photography that would help define events

now we got lovely phones held the wrong way of some dude running off stage and that isn't gonna mean poo poo

carrying a camera around at all times while not expressly doing so for taking photographs is a pain in the rear end

no sympathy for vertical vids tho, they can take a shiety vid of a fkn bullet for allicare

does anyone have a summary of what the hell is going on?

old dude shot a bunch of people in Vegas, no manifesto as yet, everything you read from anyone else is going to be sourced direct from their rear end/4chan you pick which one is worse
also a bunch of people think it's a false flag (elsewhere, presumably nobody on SA is dumb enough) with multiple shooters, military trained kill teams, or something even dumb
in short
nobody knows much

Yeah, I don't think that there were news photographers everywhere before phones were a thing, so it's not like everything that gets photographed today would have also been photographed, but better.

Photos of Tragedy and Mass Death were... *takes long drag of cigarette* just so pure. So distilled, very classy, obviously taken by professionals to really gather its defining essence.

Now all we get is McDonalds packaged cheapass vertical filming plebs mass produced events of tragedies at multiple angles, making it look like a surreal home video to be submitted on Bob Sagat's Videodrome

People were packed in pretty tight, so as long as the bullets got there, they were going to hit somebody. Maybe several somebodies.
