Bomb Threat at Stardust Casino (Update: false alarm)
Local Radio | 07/19/2004 | HitmanNY

Word just broke that metro cops are at the Stardust looking into a suspected expolisve device at the Stardust here on the LV Strip.

I think they closed the strip from the Fremont to Sahara Ave.

More to come...

indeed, another story for which there was no followup coverage.

how do you get 3000+ people out of one of the worlds largest hotel/casinos, without panic, and without having to provide an explanation that might cause panic? cut the electricity.

...I met about a year and a half ago with a few representatives of casinos about protecting their glazing. They didn't want to spend the money.

Las Vegas is the epitome of Western decadence and a prime target for Islamists

Maybe they just didn't want to spend their money on someone who sees their business and livelihood as decadent .

==============================================

The rest of the people on the thread understood that the comment was from the perspective of the Islamists. They see the West, particularly Las Vegas, as decadent and want us dead. Oh, and I didn't walk into the meetings and call them a bunch of greedy *ssholes either. They are simply self-insured and didn't see enough risk at the time.
