Miley Cyrus teamed up with funnyman Adam Sandler for an unlikely duet in honour of victims of the Las Vegas massacre on The Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon on Monday.
The talk show host made brief remarks about the shooting at the outdoor Route 91 Harvest Festival, which left more than 50 people dead and more than 400 injured, before Miley and Adam opened the show with their performance.
“This morning we woke up to the news of another senseless shooting - this time in Las Vegas,” Jimmy said. “In the face of tragedies and acts of terror, we need to remember that good still exists in this world. We’re here to entertain you tonight and that’s what we’re going to do.”
He then introduced the We Can’t Stop singer, who sang a cover of Dido’s 2013 song No Freedom with scheduled guest Adam, who played the guitar and sang backing vocals.
She later took to Twitter to share an image of their duet, and wrote in the caption, “No Love without Freedom ...No Freedom without LOVE. Thank you so much to Adam Sandler for joining me tonight in remembering all those lost and singing lyrics that I believe are so important at this time .... #LandOfTheFree #StopTheViolence #GivePeaceAChance @fallontonight.”
The singer, who kicked off her week-long residency on the show on Monday, had tweeted earlier, “In honour of the lives lost,injured and affected by the tragic shooting in Vegas, @fallontonight & I dedicated this show to not only mourning this horrific event but using this platform to encourage unity , peace & hopefulness! So we started this week off with a song.”
Miley, who also performed her track The Climb on the show, is expected to appear in sketches and perform each night during her residency, and told her followers she hoped she could make viewers “smile even thru so much pain (sic).”
Adam appeared on the chat show to talk about his new movie The Meyerowitz Stories with co-star Dustin Hoffman.

Vegas shooter was reportedly prescribed anti-anxiety meds over the summer
Mass murderer Stephen Paddock was prescribed anti-anxiety medication this past summer, a report said.
The gunman purchased 50 10-milligram tablets of diazepam — better known under its brand name Valium — on June 21, the Las Vegas Review-Journal reported, citing records from the Nevada Prescription Monitoring Program.

Diazepam Is Killing Scotland's Drug-Using Poor
Thanks to the majority of late 20th century American fiction, many of us have the mistaken belief that Valium is the preserve of the clinically bored, middle-aged housewife, when really the drug is killing Scotland's poorest men.
https://www.vice.com/en_ca/article/znq99w/valium-is-killing-scotlands-poorest-men
well well well
Oh no....not the drugs that turn people either homocidal or suicidal.
like at Columbine.
No motive?
What those drugs do to a percentage of people IS motive.
The people who don't question this stuff are OBVIOUSLY brain dead
Did I say that loud enough?
BRAIN DEAD
So it's bad to be a conspiracy factist eh?
Do your drugs then ( go suck Hitlary's nutz), and sit in the corner.
The real world is WAY much too much for you.

I wonder how many were hurt just getting trampled by the crowd....

The "usual" NRA response is that if EVERYONE was well armed, there wouldn't BE any "bad guys" or, rather, they wouldn't get the opportunity to be bad. That was their answer to Sandy Hook. The REAL problem was that the elementary teachers weren't "carrying".
That wouldn't have worked on Sunday as the shooter was above them and a long way from them. If anything, the death toll would have been much higher with hundreds of pointy-headed morons drawing their firearms and waving them around "ready for action" and they would have sufficiently confused the police that they would have been gunning THEM down in some numbers.
The NRA is strangely silent but you can get your last drachma that they are brainstorming a response, around the clock right now. Expect to see an intellectual pretzel given to the American people, later this week.
The natural animal instinct when in danger..... is fight or flee.
Proper training determines which one you do!

Lots!! ... and hit by cars too as they ran into the street.
The cops were at the hotel door 30 minutes before swat even arrived. It was about 70 minutes before entry was made and the guy was already dead. How about the taxi driver, she saw the muzzle flashes so she could have put a few rounds through the same window?
At the next concert should they have snipers at the edge of the place looking for shooters or does the 'terrorist' now plant a bomb under the stage or something just as different?
Those wouldn't be classified as 'wounded'. With the audio from the vid that ran the whole time you could count how many rounds were actually fired.
You exempting yourself?? Good.Soooo many experts on this forum
You claiming you need an IQ of 160 to watch a short vid and have a 'reasonable opinion' after? (that would exclude you as you have the 60 but not the 100.
It is only the troll from the collective on this board that are suggesting people have no opinions unless it points to what they want to believe, in this case a lone gunman who had better weapons that Lee Oswald.
America’s mass delusion
Surprisingly, the strategy of praying to God is not stopping the mass shootings in the U.S.

Is America’s national Thoughts and Prayers Strategy (TAPS) no longer working? This is a troubling possibility to consider, but it may be time to ask the question.
Politicians, members of the media, and of course the public, quickly responded to the recent horrific shooting of several people during a baseball game in Alexandria, Va., including U.S. Congressman Steve Scalise, with a flurry of “thoughts & prayers”. President Donald Trump himself immediately assisted in TAPS efforts with his own tweet indicating that he too was doing his part by thinking about the victims and mentioning them in any communications he had with God.
Unfortunately, there is growing evidence that TAPS may not be delivering the results we would expect from appealing to an omniscient and all-powerful deity. For example, in spite of the well-executed TAPS implementation following the Alexandria incident, there was almost immediately afterwards another tragic shooting in a San Francisco UPS facility, killing two. Cleary something is amiss.
In a typical year, over 13,000 Americans will be killed by guns. To put that into perspective, that is six times more than the total number of American troops killed in Afghanistan over the last 16 years. America’s gun homicide rate is 25 times the average of other developed countries. There is now, typically, one mass shooting per day in the United States. Over the course of the year, 45 of those will be school shootings.
This data is very surprising when you consider the power of beseeching God. You would think parting the Red Sea, or smiting the Egyptians with a plague of frogs, would be far more difficult than just reducing gun violence. It is worth noting, however, that most well-known examples of successful celestial intervention in earthly affairs are over two millennia old. This marked drop-off has gone largely unnoticed in American political circles and may be worth exploring in more depth.
The problem, if indeed there is one, could be denominational. Are Jewish prayers as effective as Protestant prayers when it comes to preventing future shootings, or healing existing victims? For obvious reasons, we know that the prayers of a southern Baptist will have no prophylactic effects on a Muslim in New Jersey. But will they protect Catholics? These are questions we should possibly start asking.
Perhaps we are not praying enough. Church attendance is down considerably in the United States. This presumably has a direct impact on both the frequency and quality of prayers. If this turns out to be the issue, the government could look at improving public transit links to places of worship, or perhaps even subsidizing sermons as a means to end gun violence.
The other issue that should be considered is whether the wrong people are praying. For example, when a notoriously adulterous politician tweets out his “thoughts and prayers”, does that carry more or less weight than a nun who silently mouths the same words over her rosary? There really should be better metrics to track this.
Is it possible we are saying the wrong prayers or in the wrong way? Not enough effort has been made to determine if TAPS is equally effective when tacked on to a press release as it would be as an addendum to the Lord’s Prayer. And, have you noticed that you rarely hear a politician implement TAPS in Greek (Σκέψεις και προσευχές) or even Hebrew (מחשבות ותפילות)? Could that be the reason 93 Americans are still dying every day from gun violence?
There are so many factors that need to be taken into account if we want to get to the bottom of this. Kneeling or not? Eyes open or closed? Does incense make a difference? Out of respect for the hundreds of children who are shot and killed every year in the U.S., we must answer these questions.
The White House, perhaps in co-operation with some of America’s leading research centres like MIT or Stanford, should launch an urgent nationwide investigation into why TAPS is not working. A series of randomized control trials in various states would be easy to organize and may produce invaluable data. Likewise, the government could test the TAPS methodology against other pressing issues. Does it help fix America’s crumbling infrastructure? Can it reduce the deficit? Will it fix Obamacare? Has the Pentagon considered a robust prayer response to the North Korean missile program?
With so many daily deaths, so many unnecessary tragedies, America’s leaders must do whatever is necessary to fix TAPS. If they fail at this, the United States would be forced to consider some very dire alternatives. In the United Kingdom, for example, when they decided thoughts and prayers were no longer working, they had to implement handgun laws that reduced shooting deaths by over 50 per cent. Likewise, Canada, Australia and Europe neglected TAPS and as result are forced to rely on firearm controls and background checks to keep their gun violence levels at 1/25th those in the United States. If America doesn’t address the TAPS problem soon, this might happen to them too.

I think a black-coloured shirt would have matched the rifle better. What do you think?
The weapons look better when fire is coming out of the end of the barrel. Red shirts would hide the fact you are a bit slow on the draw.
