Vanity: There has been essentially no new news about the Vegas shooter in days. Why?

There has been no new news for days about the mass shooting in Vegas. It feels like the case has already gone cold. Do you think law enforcement is keeping big news from us? I find it amazing that there is virtually no news on this story anymore.

“The exact kind of man who lives out his life in a +50-year old community with an Asian girlfriend.”

Or decides there’s nothing more and goes out in a ball of flame so he can feel like he actually did something.

BTW, saw a picture of his girlfriend. I’m not sure she’s Asian but might be Islander by her features. And she was only with him a few times a year according to witnesses. This guy fits the profile of a loser trying to get big and then taking the decision on him away from everyone by swallowing one. Just a loser with nothing left.

Maybe he just ain't that interesting a guy.

If a mass murderer had other skills and talents and a little bit of mental balance, wouldn't he be using them?

Possibly he could make money, but he wasn't that good with the people skills, was he?

To do the deed meant that those reconstituted guns with the whatchamacallit added, to make them fully automatic, would cause them to over heat, thus, more guns would be needed, and also reportedly two of them were found jammed.

A concert venue of that size as the target was definitely going to require a lot of guns for achieving maximum death.
The more guns prepared and the faster he fired them as fully automatic, then the more ammo was used which increased chances of downing more victims in the shortest amount of time, before either being caught, or able to escape.

Actually that security guard is on film. I saw it by the following evening. Guard was already wounded but SWAT and he coordinating in video from Security Guard body cam.

Guard was inching towards the shooter’s room whispering to SWAT where the cameras were that shooter had placed in a dining table outside the room, and SG reported that he had already cleared neighboring rooms to shooter.

Guard asked SWAT to signal him before they broke through the stair well to the hall way on 32nd, to avoid a “blue on blue”.

“could make him a candidate of a high functioning case for Asburger”

Asperger syndrome is generally considered to be on the “high functioning” end of the spectrum. He was not in that category his skills led to just moderate success in the things he actually did. He was a utilizer of prostitutes and gambling binges. On the other hand he was good with his brother’s family, especially the kids. He was even allowed by the parents to take them shooting on skeet ranges.

I would think a person with that illness might not have the social or interaction skills to accomplish that. Who knows.

A cover-up of some kind is afoot, it would appear.

First the authorities have to get their stories straight.

And then they have to make sure any photos, videos, witnesses, or any other conflicting evidence is confiscated, controlled or destroyed.

Then, and only then, will we hear the acceptable conclusions from the investigators.

All other narratives or questioning from the public, will be branded misinformation or unsubstantiated speculation. They will claim anything that varies from their "facts" are conspiracy theories of amateurs.

We know this because this story stinks to high heaven. Many things aren't right. The motive they seek may not be shooter's alone. It may be the motive of some other player(s) instead.

The fact that this thing has gone silent is troublesome.

OMG. It’s not an illness and Autism and it’s many “spectrums” isn’t a part of this. And Asperger syndrome or whatever its called now is not a part of it anymore.

People really should stop trying to associate this person with some “issue” including autism or asperger’s (or on the autism spectrum).

I know nothing about the autism spectrum for Ashburgers, but the story on his agonizing “screams” of “OMG!” in his bed were heard by the Philippine woman and that his father had been diagnosed as a psychotic while incarcerated for robberies makes me wonder about the look of this shooter’s brain.

I await an autopsy report, wondering if his own suicide kill shot damaged all hope of getting a decent diagnostic from a brain scan of this shooter??? Obviously, he was mental. I mean pile on EVIL, but this was a long time coming it seems to me and possibly connected to his no-tracks life style.

Nice accumulation of self-serving speculation. You set it up so to be right no matter what the outcome.

A lot of simplistic thinking around here.

Rush mentioned the other day that his people had found the shooter was a registered Dem in 1984. That’s probably at the root of no news.

The problem the people have is we no longer trust the government or its agents to tell us the truth. Nor can the news media be trusted. Hence the drive to know everything about the case before any information can be modified or destroyed.

<< People really should stop trying to associate this person with some “issue” including autism or asperger’s (or on the autism spectrum). >>

Your remark as it turns out should have been directed more toward me. I repeated to Freeper *Redwood71 of a TV report that I had heard speculating on Aspergers and this shooter. *71 was replying to me on the subject.

Glad you’re so spectrum informed. We are not, evidently.

However, his brain condition remains of interest to me whether you approve or not.

A massacre of this magnitude is pretty inexplicable to my way of thinking and it isn’t unreasonable to consider shooter’s head, his father’s separate diagnosis and shooter’s agonizing on the bed screaming “OMG!”, or girl friend also adding that he had been showing signs of mental problems.

Just sayin’.

Because the facts being revelaled don’t fit the PC narrative?

Both posts about sum up the media and their agenda to use the Vegas shooting to further their mission of gun control for the Ameican citizens who want to protect themselves and this Republic as the occasion arises. After the shooting, the media went into full Katrina mode, hollering and screeching and echoing each others words almost exactly. As in reading from the same script. They were attempting to panic the public and drive them to a stampede so great it would cause legislators to initiate more gun control. They have concentrated on the butt mount feature used by the gunman as if that alone constituted the entirety of the number of people killed and wounded. Facts to the contrary do not mean a thing to the script readers. A murderer with the resources of this shooter could have either bought one from illegal sources or used another mechanism to achieve the same rapid firing. He would have killed many more people with his car explosives. What I see as the most glaring truth to come from the media is the extent that they are in control of the content of what is labeled as news. This means that only the relatively few owners of mass media are able to bend and shape what their hired personnel screech out, and can affect our govt and legislators in ways that further the globalists and communists ongoing efforts to destroy this Republic. One World Govt is their mission. The freedom to bear arms is the main deterrent to these traitors within and without our govt. I believe this Vegas assault is a warning call to all Americans to prepare in any way necessary to defend themselves and their families. The media hysteria about gun control is directed at the citizens who are not living in gated communities, or secured lodgings, or rich enough to hire their own armed security in necessary numbers.

I agree. Distrust is fueling part of the desire to know. However, there is no evidence that the Clintons, Obamas or other high Democratic figures are involved. Therefore, if it’s just about private citizens, we can be reasonably assured that the story will come out.
