If ‘leading a secret life’ is defined as having 43 weapons, 1600 rounds of ammo, and 50 pounds of Tannerite, then FR must be composed ultra-secret lifers.

(Only 1600 rounds?)

is 1600 rounds a lot? if he had 43 weapons that is only 37 rounds per weapon. Unconfirmed reports say I may or may not have a lot more than that.

The way I hear it is an AC he once owned was later contracted to or owned by the US Gmnt

Exactly. You plan on using it for your target practice.

She went with him looking at guns at least once. The dealer says he didn’t buy anything.

The dealer said she seemed disinterested.

According to the LVRJ he was potting away at the jet fuel tanks at McCarran. He may have had much bigger plans.

>>Doesn’t everyone drive around with explosives in their cars, with no plans for it?

Maybe he had a Ford Pinto fantasy, “Go on, try and hit me!”

And where is Ralph Nadar, talk about unsafe at any speed.

The explosives are also throwing a wrench in the “we need gun control” narrative, bombs and explosions kill too.

If the Federal Bureau of Incompetence is involved you know his life is being whitewashed.

What would be the point of the shooter bringing that many guns to his room?
Firing rifles on auto in very long bursts causes them to heat up real fast and jam. He would know that and planned on switching rifles.
He may have also planned on being joined by one or more accomplices.

How is this for a scenario?
Paddock did work for the government, either directly or indirectly, that made him lots of cash money. Then, his insanity erupted. The government would rather not have this, er, revenue stream for services rendered, visible to the public. Since there is no way to manufacture a plausible lie about his motives, the only option is to say, ‘Gee, it will be a mystery forever!’

Did he plan to place the tannerite on the fuel tanks?

Maybe he just couldn’t get past the security fences.

fifty pounds? That’s a lot of tannerite. Perhaps to bomb the first responders while he made an escape? Attacking the first responders is a Al Quaeda/ISIS tactic.

“And yet his airplane was removed from one (but not
BOTH) of the Registries — because it was
tied to the US Govt.”

Interesting.

Would you please provide me a link for that?

He had dozens of automatic rifles, 50 pounds of explosives and thousands of gallons of jet fuel at his fingertips.
I think he wanted to create a real holocaust potentially killing thousands and thousands ... but for some reason(s) he cut the plan short.
