Questions about Las Vegas

The investigation of the shooting in Las Vegas continues. A crime scene so massive and with so many different crime scenes will be completely covered and no question will go unanswered. Sheriff Joseph Lombardo is doing a masterful job and both he and other investigators both local and federal have worked countless hours attempting to find out the what and why of what happened.

As always, we will not get all the answers that the American people are seeking. In the aftermath of the worst mass shooting in American history it is imperatives that the answers are clear, concise and honest. I am convinced that at the end of all the investigations, and the media has moved on to the next major story, there will still be questions about why this happened and how did it happen.

Questions remain, some may be just conspiracy and some may be factual. In either case, they are questions that need to be answered. One question is that the authorities are stating that Paddock did not check in until September 28th. A question arises when individuals who work at the Mandalay Bay assert that Paddock ordered room service on the 27th for two people. Who was that other person and why are authorities stating that Paddock did not check in until the 28th? Sources at the Mandalay Bay are claiming that Paddock actually checked in on the 25th.

Paddock, an out of shape former accountant with no military training is not capable of pulling this off by himself. With no experience in guns, ho could he have fired as rapidly and accurately as he did. As a military veteran and have experience with fully automatic weapons, they can be hard to control, jam easily and tend to overheat. Using an automatic weapon effectively takes extensive training and experience in the use of such weapons. Being a retired accountant senior citizen, I do not understand how Paddock had the skill or the stamina to fire for so long.The overheating is also a reason why suppressors (silences in Hillarys vernacular) are never used on such weapons. They have a tendency to melt and more quickly jam the gun.

How is law enforcement convinced that there was only one shooter? There are pictures that clearly show rifle fire from a lower window. And why are there recordings of law enforcement talking of another possible suspect on the fourth floor?

At the scene of the crime, why were all the exits blocked. Those 22,000 happy concert goers found themselves trapped, with ability to get out or to seek cover. The ten foot walls kept the multitude of people in the fire zone with no way out.

I have been to Las Vegas many times, living in Southern California and I can not understand how anyone, much less Paddock can carry so many weapons and ammunition into a room without being seen.

Even Trey Gowdy, the no nonsense Representative from South Carolina is skeptical. In Rep. Gowdy’s words, he is skeptical about the amount of premeditation and can not believe that a single person could have done this without assistance.

Further questions include: why so many rifles and weapons if there was only one shooter. Were the rifles that were there for another shooter? Were they all Paddock’s weapons and was he funded by others to have that so many weapons?

Paddock was found dead in his room by a self inflicted gunshot wound. Law enforcement states that he shot himself when they blew the door open to his room. Is there a ballistic report on the bullet that killed him that will close out that part of the investigation?

The broken windows on the 32nd floor of the Mandalay Bay are the supposed site where the firing of the bullets that killed 58 people took place. Automatic weapons have a very pronounced flash, why were there no flashes from the 32nd floor? I have not heard whether flash suppressors were used, but even then there would be some flash. There are purported to be flashes from the 4th floor, but that has not been confirmed. The audio of the online videos and other videos it clearly be heard overlapping gunfire from two different weapons. Barring any further explanation, how can Paddock be responsible for all the carnage.

Paddock has no criminal history in either federal, state or local law enforcement. He had no affiliation with any activist group that is known of, although there are reports that Antifa literature may have been found in his room. Paddock was not politically active, or even religiously affiliated. Paddock did not have the ability of the meticulously planning, coordination or funding an attack such as this.

The final question I have is – has the Australian man, Brian Hodge, who was in the room next to Paddock been interviews and will that investigation be made public? He as stated “There were multiple shooters, and this same gentleman also provided information about the shooting that took the life of a security guard, supposedly shot by law enforcement.

Or another witness also from Australia, Wendy Miller who was staying next to the Mandalay Bay at the Luxor, where she described the security police chasing a Security Guard, or someone dressed as one, down the escalator that comes from the Mandalay Bay to the Luxor. Is there any information about this being given to the public about this.

These are questions that may be factual and need to be cleared by the end of the investigation. There are those that are already declaring this a “false flag” operation that is meant to lead to further gun control and eventually to a civil war. Hopefully Law Enforcement, both local and federal are aware of all these anomalies to the description they want the public to believe. Attention must be paid to those who are doing the investigation.

Lots of good questions. But I believe there other windows were broken out.

The “multiple” shots theory was explained to me by a freeper. One, one bang from the powder exploding. Two, the bullet breaking the sound barrier. Three, echoes.

As for security guards chasing a security guard, give me a break. The security guards were all running and one was faster than the others.

Mostly hogwash. Also extremely poorly written and needs an editor, a spellchecker, a grammarian, and a common sense filter. Was this written by a non-native speaker of English? Is this a test to see which theories the sheeple will swallow? My current opinion is that there is far more to this than we are being told. However..... 1. A crime scene so massive and with so many different crime scenes will be completely covered and B.S. The government never comes clean. Sometimes for a good reason (looking for accomplices) must mostly because they are habitual liars and treat the citizenry as if they were stupid children unable to handle the facts. 2. Paddock, an out of shape former accountant with no military training is not capable of pulling this off by himself. I've been out shooting with 10 and 12 year olds who could have pulled this off. 3. With no experience in guns .... What makes you so sure he had no experience? Most people with a gun collection do not just collect them, but also fire them. A few practice sessions on a range (or more likely some secluded spot in the dessert) wold be plenty of experience. 4. ho could he have fired as rapidly and accurately as he did I'll leave to others to address "rapidly" but as far as accuracy goes, he had a gigantic target. Unless you think he was accurately picking off particular individuals, all he had to do was aim in the general direction of the mass of people. "shooting fish in a barrel" 5. As a military veteran and have experience with fully automatic weapons, they can be hard to control, jam easily and tend to overheat. This is, IMO, overstated. Yes, weapons can jam and overheat, and if he had a single weapon that would be a flaw in his plan. But he had multiple weapons. If one overheated he could drop it an move to the next. It's a reasonable assumption that that was part of the plan. 6. There are those that are already declaring this a “false flag” Would not surprise me. Nor would it surprise me to find out it was ISIS or some other terrorist operation. 7. Attention must be paid to those who are doing the investigation. Most worthwhile sentence in the whole article. Agree 100%.

Wow. The stupid is strong with this one.

Paddock, an out of shape former accountant with no military training is not capable of pulling this off by himself.

Not true. He was in good enough shape to handle a light AR-15

Using an automatic weapon effectively takes extensive training and experience in the use of such weapons.

No. Not really. He was firing into a tightly-packed crowd of 20,000 people and even then, bullets were flying everywhere (fuel depot).

There are pictures that clearly show rifle fire from a lower window.

No, there are not.

I can not understand how anyone, much less Paddock can carry so many weapons and ammunition into a room without being seen.

The stupid continues. 27 firearms could easily fit in about three or four duffel bags. You can roll them from the parking lot to your room on a luggage caddy.

why so many rifles and weapons if there was only one shooter.

Because they can overheat and bump stocks can jam.

Automatic weapons have a very pronounced flash, why were there no flashes from the 32nd floor?

Even at night an AR-15 is not going to have much of a flash, particularly from 1100 feet away. I thought you said you fired these things before?

There are purported to be flashes from the 4th floor, but that has not been confirmed.

Magic bullets that fly through windows without breaking glass. Cool!

although there are reports that Antifa literature may have been found in his room.

What reports?

The final question I have is – has the Australian man, Brian Hodge, who was in the room next to Paddock

Except he wasn't in the room when Paddock was shooting.
