Maybe they could tell us what day he made the reservation and what day he checked in, before the authorities do. Still haven’t heard either of those little tidbits.
Not enough info to do much with. I mean it would explain a lot if he had gone to the dark cult of Islam but for now I’m not buying it. Let’s see what his lady friend has to say first. Hopefully she is open and honest about this understanding the gravity of it all and gives us an insight to his true motives.
I think that’s pretty much what we need right now. The far left nut who gunned down the Republicans on the ball field was easy enough to figure out even though the left denies it. When that shooter asked if it was the Republicans practicing then started shooting; it was clear he was there to shoot right wingers due to the hate all leftists carry in their hearts. We need a fact like that to really know for sure.
Heck; look at the guy in Aurora, CO at the Batman movie who was nuts and shot up that theater. He was just plain bat chit crazy. We could see it by the looking at the pics of him afterward. His eyes gave it away. Crazy, smart, but crazy. He didn’t do it for ideology; he picked that theater because it was a no guns allowed zone so he knew his chances of getting shot at were much lower there.
By coincidence Showtime just started a series on the mass murder shootings in America tonight. The Aurora Theater one was first. Maybe by the time they get to this one they will have enough facts to tell the story right. I think in the long run it will simply be an anti-gun series designed to work on emotions because they always lose when up against facts as the recent article below suggests.

Of course he did. You don’t need to be a military strategy genius to guess that Paddock would have reconoitered the area prior to carrying out his mission.
This is one of the most irritating stories in the entire world to have to listen to on talk radio. Because there are grand total of about 11 facts to this story all of which lead to no conclusion whatsoever. I recognize I’m complaining about an irritation in the light of a completely horrific experience where dozens of people were killed and hundreds wounded but there is no news here.
They should have found prayer rugs, Korans and other Islamic paraphernalia in Paddock’s homes.
But of course they may not want it public as of yet.
"Most" people?
Based on what?
The government's immediate denial?
Oddly I’m more willing to believe ISIS on this point than the political FBI.
There is more evidence of an ISIS link than a Trump /Russia link.
And , yet, due to a political agenda one is denied and the other pursued with the entire force of the US government.
Paddock’s targets would make one think of ISIS’s targets: Christians. Paddock’s attack mirrors the ISIS onslaught against the civilized peoples of the world.
Were he an actual jihadi he would have been bound by the pledge to Allah to shoot it out with the police, or blow himself up in order to take out others. But not simple suicide by his own hand wherein he only takes out himself. Contrary to jihadist principles .
One thing I have not seen much on was the amount of money this guy went through. Sending $100,000 to the Philippines, owning numerous firearms and loads of ammunition, booking multiple suites at various hotels. He was a gambler but the indications were that he was not that successful. Has anyone seen what his net worth happened to be?
Two things bother me about the people laughing at ISIS involvement. 1)ISIS usually does not claim something unless they have some type of involvement even if it is just a little. 2)There is talk that the videos were live streamed to another party(if true that would say larger group).
This would seem to be confirmed by the fact police are looking into him renting a room overlooking another concert venue the weekend before.
Here is an unverified tidbit being reported on Twitter about the women in the crowd warning people they were going to die. There were reports from Manchester of a woman giving the same warning.
