As she will, to a great brexit deal based on that florence speech on whose every syllable, i can tell you, the whole cabinet is united. The streets of barcelona at a standstill as workers across catalonia strike in protest at the violence of Spanish Police during the independence referendum. And im free, free fallin. And tributes are paid to the american rock legend tom petty, who has died aged 66. Its 5 oclock. Our main story is the aftermath of the mass shooting in las vegas. President trump has said america will have to talk about its gun laws after a man shot dead 59 people at a Music Festival and injured more than 500. Stephen paddock, a wealthy 64 year old, opened fire on a crowd of thousands with an automatic weapon. Police are still trying to work out his motives. My colleague clive myrie is in las vegas with the latest. It is just after 9am here it isjust after 9am here in las vegas, a crisp, beautiful day. The area in the shadow of the Mandalay Bay Hotel behind me is a huge crime scene now. In that hotel is of course the place from where Stephen Paddock orchestrated mass murder. The question is why. Why did a 64 year old man, moderately wealthy by all accounts, no criminal record, why did he decide to cut down so many people on sunday night . The investigators are no closer to establishing a motive behind what happened. But the work continues to establish what happened and why. At the moment, it is still a mystery. Lets get the latest from richard galpin. Two days after the deadliest mass shooting in modern us history, the identities of some of those feared to have been killed are now being made public. Sandy casey, who was with her fiance at the concert, was a teacher from california who was described as being absolutely loved by her colleagues and students. 34 year old Charleston Hartfield was a Las Vegas Police officer, a military veteran and a football coach, whod been off duty at the concert. And dana gardner, who was 52, was a county employee in california. Shes been described as a dedicated public servant. Everybody in this community has been so touched by the loss of these lives and the horror of that mentally sick horrible human being, horrible human being, who has taken into his hands devastation, and imprinted in our minds forever a day that really doesnt belong in our fabulous, beautiful city. But already, the people of las vegas have been coming together, holding vigils like this one to grieve, but also to demonstrate solidarity in the face of such overwhelming violence. And people have also been getting involved at a more practical level. Here, hundreds queue up to give blood. The need is great more than 500 were injured in the attack. But mystery still surrounds the motive of the wealthy 64 year old retired accountant, Stephen Paddock, who was responsible for murdering and injuring so many. He lived in this quiet town north east of las vegas, with a woman who is now injapan. Neighbours here hardly saw them. He was very quiet, and kept to himself. Ive heard that you wouldnt even notice he was here, except that the trash cans would come out, and then they would go back in. So far, police searches of the house have not provided clues about his motives, although his father, who was a bank robber, was described by the fbi as a psychopath with suicidal tendencies. What was found in this house was a large cache of weapons and ammunition. Even more was found in the hotel room in las vegas from where he opened fire. Its reported that he had high velocity assault rifles similar to those used on the battlefield. Detectives are combing through evidence to uncover the motive behind the shooting, and any other pertinent information that will help shed light on this horrible event. We have recovered 23 firearms at mandalay bay and i9 firearms at his home in mesquite. Today, President Trump had this to say about the gunman. He was a sick man, a demented man. A lot of problems, i guess. Were looking into him very seriously. But we are dealing with a very, very sick individual. As for any debate on gun controls now. Well be talking about sen lessee 399 who had to deal with the injured say the scale is something you would see in a war. There are still so many people fighting for their lives as i speak. 0ur correspondent dave lee is at the University Medical centre where many of the injured are being treated. Yes, behind me is the Trauma Centre where some of the most serious injuries arrived on that sunday night, 104 people in total. We are being told that 12 people inside are still in critical condition. 0verall, more than 500 have been injured, with 59 dead. Right now, 12 people asked all critical. We have been getting updates this morning from the spokeswoman here. I asked her earlier about the nature of some of the injuries that have been treated. Mostly gunshot wounds, as you can imagine from that type of event, but also injuries from being in that big crowd of people, all trying to get out at the same time. How well prepared for this way you . We are extremely prepared. This is exactly why we are the number one trauma ce ntre why we are the number one Trauma Centre in nevada. This is why we train for mass casualty incidents, why we have a full trauma team here 24 7. They are waiting for the call to come in at the bedside. 0ur surgeons are ready before the patient is off loaded from the ambulance. We also heard that as recently as two weeks ago, experts from orlando we re two weeks ago, experts from orlando were giving advice on this type of situation, so it does seem that they we re situation, so it does seem that they were well prepared. Dave lee, thanks. 0nce were well prepared. Dave lee, thanks. Once again, america is asking how this kind of thing could happen. Americans are numbered by yet another mass shooting and wondering why there are not stricter gun controls in this country stricter background checks, for instance, on people who want to get their hands on weapons, proposals like that which have over the years been stymied and got stuck in congress, usually because of weak co ng resses congress, usually because of weak congresses of both political stripes, with a lack of political will to drive forward those kinds of measures which some people believe here may save lives. President trump is due to arrive in the city sometime tomorrow. He has briefly talked about a National Conversation concerning gun control. 0ne talked about a National Conversation concerning gun control. One wonders how forceful he will be on that when he gets here tomorrow. The mass shooting in las vegas has revived the debate on gun control in america. The killer, Stephen Paddock, had an arsenal of 47 weapons and thousands of rounds of ammunition. Today, President Trump suggested that america may have to talk about its gun laws, despite previously opposing restrictions on gun ownership. 0ur correspondent sophie long reports. Terror, as innocent lives are again brutally cut short by a man with a gun. America, again, must come to terms with what happened here. Las vegas willjoin the growing list of places forever etched in peoples minds. Already on it, 0rlando, where 49 people were killed in a nightclub. Virginia tech university, where 32 people died. No one will ever forget Sandy Hook Elementary School in connecticut, where 20 children and five of their teachers were shot dead. Now again, people ask, should there be an increase in controls . What is increasing is the number of People Killed by guns. Its up from 12,500 in 2014 to more than 15,000 last year. Its estimated there are around 300 million private guns in circulation and nevada has some of the most relaxed gun laws in the country. You dont need a permit to buy a gun or licence to own one. Things are unlikely to change under President Trump. As your president , i will never, ever infringe on the right of the people to keep and bear arms. Never, ever. But that wont stop the calls for change. The husband of former congresswoman gabrielle giffords, who survived a shooting six years ago, says action is needed to stop the next shooting. Despite senseless, deadly gun related domestic violence, despite an epidemic of preventable suicides, despite the problem of toddlers shooting toddlers and their parents, the response from congress has been to do nothing. Ironically, after Mass Shootings, gun sales go up rather than down. The White House Press secretary says its too early to talk about increased controls, but some are now changing their minds. A guitar player whod been on stage on sunday said they had good guys with guns, but they were useless, and gun control is needed right now. Sophie long, bbc news. Joining me now from nevada is sharon 0ren, owner of Maccabee Arms in reno. Your thoughts on the president swith today, when he says america still have to talk about the state of its gun laws. What do you make of that . Well, a conversation has to happen either way. As long as we are talking on both sides, it is possible. But the core problem here is not the gun laws as much as how people get into the psychological state of going out and doing what they are doing. Evil is evil. What do you say to some americans who say it is the availability of arms across the board, notjust whether people have evil intentions, it is the availability of arms that contributes to the problem . Well, u nfortu nately, contributes to the problem . Well, unfortunately, like everywhere else in the world, you guys in uk or the eu or israel or any place where there are extremely restrictive gun laws, those who want to get their hands on those firearms can do so freely. So the means are there. When you dont have people who are armed and trained that can stop those people, than the Law Abiding Society is very vulnerable and becomes a victim becomes the sheep where only the wolf has the means. Victim becomes the sheep where only the wolf has the meanslj victim becomes the sheep where only the wolf has the means. I mentioned the wolf has the means. I mentioned the state of gun laws in nevada. For the state of gun laws in nevada. For the sake of our viewers here, when people say they are more lenient than elsewhere, could you describe to us the kind of checks that you go through when someone turns up at your store and says he or she wants to buy a firearm . First of all, by federal law and state law, every individual who wants to own a firearm in the state of nevada, which is actually not the most lenient, we are middle of the road in the United States, has to fill out a form called the 4473 declaration and then we call them in for a check. You have to be over the age of 18 and over 21 for a handgun. After we have run a background check, we can release the firearm to you. So it is not as lenient as people think, just going to do mall and paying and leaving. On what basis would you yourself want to turn someone down. Regardless of the background checks, if somebody presented themselves to you and you had doubts about them in terms of their attitude or their character, would you be entitled to say no . Most definitely. The last say in the matter is the shop owners, which is me. Ican matter is the shop owners, which is me. I can definitely decline a transaction on any basis. I dont need to give a reason to sell a firearm to an individual, based on myjudgment. What firearm to an individual, based on my judgment. What about firearm to an individual, based on myjudgment. What about the man who has been named in this dreadful incident, Stephen Paddock . Are you aware of any contact with him or do you know people who have known him in terms of the purchase of weapons . He never purchased a firearm from my establishment. I am aware of a few local residents that knew him briefly. He did have residency here in reno as well. What is the face of evil . We see it when we look at terrorism. And in this case, whether it is Mental Illness or a political view, it is terrorism. First of all, we need to support the victims and theirfamilies as we need to support the victims and their families as much as we can. Everyone talks about the first responders, but i have quite a few friends in this incident and the body talks were about the amount of vetera ns body talks were about the amount of veterans and off duty Law Enforcement people who were in the crowd. They were the ones who risked their lives to evacuate people, things the media are not talking about. These are the people who deserve the spotlight right now, and of course the victims. When it comes to gun laws, i believe that in this case, if i was in that crowd with a firearm, i dont think i would have been able to help in this specific case. But in many other cases, the only way to stop an evil man or woman with a firearm is a good person with a firearm. I would still stick to that. And i believe i have the background to support my case. You are right to pay tribute to all of those who helped on the night. Could you help me with one more thing, the issue of automatic weapons . That is of course a different category. Is it possible that this man may be bought a semiautomatic and did that through legal means and then had it adapted in some way . How realistic would that be . Unfortunately, extremely realistic. The nsa act of 1934 which controls automatic machine guns has been established. In order to purchase an automatic machine gun in the United States, it is doable, but the United States, it is doable, but the process is a lot harder than people think. You have to go to a specific dealer. Not every gun shop can sell machine guns. It has to be manufactured and registered prior to 1986. An m16 will manufactured and registered prior to 1986. An m 16 will cost you 25,000. You have to pay for it upfront, so you have to be pretty wealthy. We hold the firearm while you go through the procedures of paperwork with the local Sheriffs Office and the fbi. It takes eight to 14 months to go through the background checks and everything else. 0nly to go through the background checks and everything else. Only once this is concluded and we get the 0k from the government can we let the customer take possession of the firearm. And he has to be in physical possession of a firearm for the rest of their lives. Since 1934, there has never been a crime committed in the United States with a legally purchased and owned machine guns. I do not know if this person had won legally or not. As for converting a semiotic firearm to a fully automatic firearm, you can do it to everything from a handgun toa do it to everything from a handgun to a longer. There is basic knowledge you can unfortunately find on youtube. It is the same with how to manufacture bombs and explosives. And the same goes for drugs. You can go on youtube and learn how to mix meth. So it is not about legalities. Who people who care about the laws dont break them. This person broke over 580 federal laws. 527 people we re over 580 federal laws. 527 people were injured and 59 dead. These are the heaviest violations there are in any country. So the guy is definitely a criminal with a criminal mindset. How do you stop that . Sharron oren, good to talk to you. Later in the programme, well be speaking to a clinical psychologist in washington about what could have driven Stephen Paddock to mass murder. And you can get all of the latest on the shooting in las vegas, borisjohnson has told the conservative Party Conference in manchester that theresa may will make a success of brexit and the cabinet is united behind every syllable of her recent speech in florence. Mrjohnson has been criticised in recent weeks by some colleagues, who accuse him of undermining the Prime Minister on brexit. Mrs may told our Political EditorLaura Kuenssberg that she valued a cabinet which was not full of people who agreed with her at all times. First of all, i think strong leadership is about having a range of voices sitting around a table. I dont think it is strong leadershipjust to have yes men supporting you. I dont think its right. Strong leadership is not about having yes men sitting around you. You talk about the authority. What matters is what government gets on and does. This isnt about an individual personality. Its about how we can deliver for people. Make a difference to peoples lives. So those people who are unemployed today in certain bme communities who will get extra help and support to get them into the workplace, that is government delivering for them. We need a balanced approach to our economy to to do it. Its why we can do what we promised, whereasjeremy corbyn will promise but can never deliver. There might have been some Prime Ministers who would have welcomed that. Sound problems. Well, we will have to fix that. We cant hear lauras questions. So hopefully, we will fix the tape. In the meantime, why dont ijoin vicki youngin the meantime, why dont ijoin vicki young in manchester. If i get the tape back, i will go back to it. In the meantime, just a thought on Boris Johnsons speech the meantime, just a thought on borisjohnsons speech to the conference, which is happening on the same day that theresa may is giving interviews explaining the fa ct giving interviews explaining the fact that she likes to be in the cabinet with people who are if not undermining her, certainly offering different views . It is true to say she has not got a cabinet full of yes men. Boris johnson has she has not got a cabinet full of yes men. Borisjohnson has made that clear in the last few weeks. 0rtis deley about the conference is the atmosphere. I think the conservatives have arrived here in a panic. They watched last week in brighton, where they had labour, the euphoria there, the discussion of ideas, the
