I used to think how wonderful it would be live somewhere like Arizona or California...all that sun and hardly any rain, with incredible scenery at every turn.
But I realised a long time ago, that holidaying and living somewhere are very different things. Their gun laws and lack of affordable healthcare would prevent me from contemplating moving there now.
Add to that, the possibility of a country electing someone like Trump.....!

> I recall Trumps comments, after the Bataclan terrorist attack....he said something like......"if only the people in the concert hall had had access to guns, they could have fought back". Can you imagine the carnage that would have occurred in Las Vegas, if the audience had started shooting at the lone gunman on the 32nd floor !
In this case they did have access to guns ...

The state of Nevada has some of the most permissive gun laws in the US. It is legal to carry an assault rifle and there is no magazine capacity limit. There are no purchase permits and blue cards are no longer required. There is no waiting period mandated for firearm purchases and private gun sales are OK.
-----------------------------------
... which is almost certainly how the gunman got hold of the weapon(s) he used. However, you can bet your bottom dollar that Trump and his team are now working feverishly on how to mitigate the damage to the pro-gun lobby. Probably by ignoring the issue completely and focusing on something else, say Puerto Rico or bending the knee ... In fact, why not combine the two? The gunman was a knee-bending Democrat who clearly hates his country.
