At least 50 people have been killed and over 400 injured in a shooting massacre in the US city of Las Vegas. The shooter has been identified as 64-year-old Stephen Paddock from Mesquite, Nevada. 

CGTN talked to Richard Weitz, a Senior Fellow and Director at the Hudson Institute's Center for Political-Military Analysis in Washington, DC, about the nature of the shooting and possible reasons why there have been frequent reports of gun attacks in the US in recent years.
