As an avid visitor to Vegas I have also expressed concerns about terrorist activities happening in the Sin City as these events seem to target large crowds of people which are plentiful everywhere in Vegas. Whether in a crowded casino, bar, show, or concert you can be a target to an evil act if one is to occur, but we come to Vegas to escape our everyday stress and shouldn’t have to worry about something like this until now. I know the security level will be now on “High Alert” throughout the city and in the future to prevent any such event from happening again. I will be heading to Vegas in the next few weeks so I will be extra cautious when I return. The aftermath of this event has shaken the community but Vegas is “Strong” and will bounce back! God bless all that were affected and we will never forget all those that lost their lives on that faithful day. Vegas Strong Baby!

Richard Long: There are dozens of Caesars casinos not located in Las Vegas. Jean and Brad were at Harrah’s Lake Tahoe when the tragedy happened and they travel frequently to those other casinos around the country.

You say that you have not played at the strip casinos for the last two years. How are you a 7 Stars member when all of the Caesar’s/Harrah’s properties are on the strip?

Glad to know You were safe. Upon hearing of the shooters VP proclivities it hit us close to home as well. We have gambled off strip for years. One very good reason is that the strip is a target rich environment for terrorists and crazies. We go to the strip for shows but don’t hang out there. Besides the video poker is better in locals casinos.

I remember after 9/11 seeing pictures recovered from terrorists of strip properties. That made an impression on us. In the past few days the Las Vegas police chief spoke of their anticipation and training for this type of event. Even more reason to be careful. It was inevitable.
