There is a mass disruption in peace and the Las Vegas shooting is the worst of its kind in recent times. People were running here and there to save their lives and it was pathetic. People scramble for cover after hearing gunshots at the Harvest country music festival and it was a horrible scene to witness. It was one minute dancing and in the next moment they were fleeing.
In all 58 victims died and 500 others were wounded in the deadliest mass shooting in US history. Gun culture is causing concern as a 64 year old man at a Las Vegas hotel showered gunfire on a huge outdoor musical concert and inflicted many deaths and a number of them were wounded. The gunman fired indiscriminately at the crowd from the 32nd floor and hence it caused wide spread loss of life in a big gathering. It is common in US that the Gun culture is going overboard and even former US President John F. Kennedy was also killed in a planned attack in 1963 by a sharp shooter. Things have not improved much and the people fear gathering in Church and Gurdwaras in America fearing such relentless attack during prayers. It is a mass killing and the dear lives have not value in States. It is time to combat terror activities in total and US can take lead role in eliminating the terror groups with concerted efforts with the help of countries like India, France, Spain and Russia. It is now or never situation and need a permanent solution.
