A gunman fired upon thousands of people attending a music festival on the Las Vegas Strip Sunday night, in a brutal attack that is blamed for at least 58 deaths, police say. In the mass shooting and panic that ensued, 515 people were injured. At least one of the dead is an off-duty police officer who was attending the concert.
Editorializing: Interesting how media always emphasize ISLAMIC terrorists, but downplay domestic terrorism as psychologically disturbed individual lone-wolfs.

Based on what I'm hearing from the local PD's that executed the search warrant, they found evidence he had installed emacs about a week before the shooting.

Psh--it takes way longer than a week to be indoctrinated into the One True Editor. If he only installed it a week ago, he wasn't serious about it.

Stop spreading fake news bullshit.
I'm sure he was a Windows 10 user. You can't trust those people. They should all be rounded up and put in asylums.

It took him that long to figure out the key combinations to shoot.

It's not for nothing Emacs is called the Swiss Army Knife of editors. Violence is inherent in the software!
