Connections: What we know about the mass shooting in Las Vegas

On Sunday night, a gunman holed up in a hotel room on the Las Vegas Strip opened fire on thousands of people attending a country music concert. At least 58 people are dead and more than 500 are injured. The shooting is the deadliest mass shooting in modern U.S. history. 

This hour, we discuss what we know about the ongoing situation in Las Vegas, and we cover broader themes like gun policy, gun control, what that means, and what the evidence says. Our guests:
