I was in Vegas during the 2018 playoff run and I took in a game at Toshiba Plaza (right in front of the arena). This was merely 6 or 7 months after the October 1 shooting and it was on my mind. It was an eerie feeling knowing that I was in a large crowd and two hotels were close enough for a copy cat shooter. Honestly, when I saw the photos/videos yesterday I thought of the same thing again.

Now I read this. It is so good that they caught him. It is sad to learn that he was previously arrested for similar threats and was let go because they took too long to do anything with him. Hopefully they've learned from their mistakes.
