"Over the last 24 hrs I have gone through lots of emotions. Scared, Anger, Heartache, Compassion and many others. I truely dont understand why a person would want to take the life of another (sic)," says Jason Aldean in an Instagram post after gunshots were fired during his Las Vegas concert.
"Something has changed in this country and in this world lately that is scary to see. This world is becoming the kind of place I am afraid to raise my children in," said Aldean, who is expecting a baby boy with wife Brittany.
"At the end of the day we arent Democrats or Republicans, Whites or Blacks, Men or Women," he continued. "We are all humans and we are all Americans and its time to start acting like it and stand together as ONE!"
"That is the only way we will ever get this country to be better than it has ever been, but we have a long way to go and we have to start now," he concluded.
"My heart aches for the victims and their families of this senseless act. I am so sorry for the hurt and pain everyone is feeling right now and there are no words I can say to take that pain away. Just know u all are in my heart and my prayers as we all go through this together. Time to come together and stop the hate! #stopthehate #prayforlasvegas."
The mass shooting in Las Vegas killed at least 59 people and injured hundreds.
The gunman, identified as 64-year-old Stephen Paddock, opened fire on concertgoers enjoying a country music festival in Las Vegas from the 32nd floor of a hotel late Sunday.
