Hours after a gunman opened fire on people at a concert, shooting from the\u00a0thirty-second floor of the Mandalay Bay Hotel, Hillary Clinton called for Americans \u201cto stand up to the NRA\u201d as a way of preventing another attack.<\/h3>\n

Breitbart News\u00a0reported<\/a>\u00a0the attack occurred while country music singer Jason Aldean was playing. The\u00a0Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department (LVMPD)\u00a0identified<\/a>\u00a0the attacker as 64-year-old Stephen Craig Paddock. He opened fire on concert-goers from an elevated position, the 32nd floor of the Mandalay Bay Hotel, and was found dead in his hotel room when LVMPD SWAT members burst inside:<\/p>\n

Clinton tweeted:<\/p>\n

\n

Our grief isn't enough. We can and must put politics aside, stand up to the NRA, and work together to try to stop this from happening again.<\/p>\n
