Keep in mind that among DEFCON attendees there are a lot of paranoids.

I was present, saw a lot of what happened, talked to a lot of Goons about it and there was a lot of misinformation and exaggeration floating around.

Some of the highest profile comments on twitter about this are people acting like they were specifically targeted, which is almost surely not the case. Some of them, for some reason, felt very unsafe. This is also likely untrue. A luxury hotel/resort in a purely-tourism city is one of the safest places you can be, despite recent events.
