What a tragic, sad, scary situation in Vegas. Many prayers going out for everyone affected by this terrible, senseless, act of violence against innocent people. So many thoughts, but it's impossible to understand or make sense of why this happened. Thoughts and sympathy for the victims, families, friends, police, fire, other first responders, doctors and nurses, and so many more... all affected by this.....all because of one bad/sick/evil person. It's heartbreaking to see the images and video of what appears to be SO many young people just trying to go and enjoy a concert. It's a scary world we live in right now. Nothing could have prepared the victims for something like this. If you're a praying person, please pray for all those left in the aftermath. Also, let's all do what we can to help in any way, big or small. Something like this just leaves us all feeling helpless.

Makes you want to stay inside the house...but even that isn't safe anymore. Prayers to all.

My heart is broken for these people and their families. I was working overnight when it happened. I listened to the scanner feed from Vegas. I could relate, and it touched me deep inside. I can't imagine the chaos that night with everything happening. The hospitals being overwhelmed, the police, the EMT's, the Firefighters, and the dispatchers....all first responders.
Las Vegas showed that they were prepared for a major event. But you can never really be prepared for something of this magnitude.
What I can say is, the true human spirit has shown through. The average person helping their fellow man. Risking their own lives to help strangers.
To me that's what "my" country stands for. During our darkest days, we shine.
We don't kneel....
Prayers for our country and the entire world.... we need it!!!!!!!

Such a horrible, useless, despicable tragedy! My heart breaks for those who have passed and their family and friends, I know the survivors have to live with what happened and I can't even imagine living with that hell. So so sad!
