Correct. I’m just saying they should not be instantly discounted as some are willing to do.
OK, I hadn't heard that. You're right, 10 years is a long time.
First the windows of that hotel can't be opened they are fixed.
Second if there was a second shooter where are all the spent shell casings? Are you suggesting that someone stuck around to police up their brass?
How do we explain 23 guns in his room other than he was mentally impaired?
There are pics out today on Twitter of those windows being out.
Some say, “No, this is the west side of the Mandalay.” One car video may be the west side. But the official Mandalay pictures show those windows out on the east side!
Had not heard this.
You've been watching too much TV. "Ballistic matching" is a myth. And moreover: You think there will be .223 bullets found in bodies? It's a 3400 ft per second round, depending on load. It goes right through. I've seen it go right through a deer, and human body is similar.
Glad you asked. This is video from TODAY: https://twitter.com/LarrySchweikart/status/915225436367462401
I made your twitter link clickable.
There are literally dozens of reporters doing stand-ups in front of the Mandalay Bay hotel, and they all show only two broken windows facing the concert plaza, both of which are on the 32nd floor.
Are we to believe that the government repaired the lower windows from the "second shooter" before sunrise?
Pretty sure no tripod because according to the “official” story, he had to go back and forth between two windows, firing nearly continuously if you listen to the audio.
I have more guns that that in my gun safe. Is it your belief that I am mentally impaired?
Getting sick of anti-2nd-Amendment FReepers. This place has sure changed.
Do you really believe someone can squeeze of a burst of rounds and no one has noticed yet? Might be a few dozen shells laying around and witnesses in adjacent rooms or floors.
I dont have an explanation what the flashes are but
I can guarantee you it wasn’t gunfire. This is getting ridiculous.
His girlfriend, Marilou Danley has a niece in Dubai. They have vacationed/gambled there.
Stephen Paddock and Marilou Danley have been know to travel away from the US for 6 months at a time.
Does he have a Middle East Connection? I think that is a valid question.
Thank you, an excellent observation.
If there was another shooter, there will be other bullets and casings found that won’t match the guns in Paddock’s room.
Apparently there was a bipod according to one of the photographs of the scene.
I think the tannerite and fertilizer was found at his home.
If the shooter was perched on either the inside of the Mandalay Bay sign, or on the towers across the street, a simple brass trap would prevent casings from flying. If it was a reflection, which i believe it was, as a strobe light would be consistent, then there are only two structures that could reflect the muzzle flash at that height. The sign, and the towers

Thanks for this thread. Please add me to your ping list.
At the macro level, the facts are fairly simple: this seriously disgruntled, otherwise apparently somewhat normal appearing individual had the motive and means to plan and conduct a large-scale massacre. That plan could very well have included other actors/shooters.
It strikes me as potentially extremely relevant that the shooter’s “companion” is described as coming from an islamic environment; that according to an eyewitness, she (???) together with a male of “similar appearance” moved among those in the audience beforehand and announced they were going to die.
