per screen grabs:

Gun runner 4FBI 2ISIS.

Deal went sideways-they killed him, did the shooting, and are in the wind.

Another fail for the G-men and their guns.

They never learn....

Very strange indeed. Reminiscent of the famous Agatha Christie novel, And Then There Were None. It’s about a man who plans to commit a series of revenge murders and then suicide in order to create and unsolvable crime. It all takes place on an island.

I do not know if that report is accurate, but I do that sometimes the same person uses different names. So the SS number maybe have been shared between two people or one person may have used different names.

documentation of Paddock flying to Phoenix on September 19th and driving back the same day in a rental car.

What was that about? He went 92 miles out of the way. His girlfriend had not gone to PI yet.

Paddock had arranged at a Phoenix gun show in early September to buy some tracer ammunition from some guy (not illegal). Later he went to the guy's house to pick it up.

I saw a newspaper interview several days ago with the guy who sold Paddock the ammunition, and the day Paddock picked up the ammo coincided with the flight to Phoenix. IIRC Paddock told the guy he intended to shoot it in the desert at night.

I recall Marilou left on the 15th, the trip to Phoenix was after that IIRC.

Alex Jones On Infowars: Vegas Coverup Collapsing, Sheriff May Be In Danger

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CVF8e9dkfSw&t=6s

Speaking outside his home in Waterford Lakes, Eric Paddock said his brother was never violent and had no history of mental illness or known ties to extremist groups. His brother had some guns but never a machine gun or an automatic weapon, Eric Paddock said.

http://www.latimes.com/nation/la-na-vegas-shooter-what-we-know-20171002-story.html

Why did Eric Paddock mention 'a machine gun'?

Something to keep in mind, is that Jesus in the hallway triggered the first shots. On the videos we’ve heard muffled shots followed by loud shots, which I think is because the first shots were down the hallway (muffled sound outside), then within less than a minute the next shots were out the windows (loud sound outside).

We don’t know when, or possibly even if, the shooting would have started without Jesus in the hallway. Paddock had already been in that room most of a week, and the music festival outside had already been underway three days without incident.

Supposedly Jesus was in the hallway to investigate an alarm in a room near Paddock’s room. Interesting.

Questions I would like answered:
How common is it for these room alarms to go off? Was Jesus in the hallway checking a room alarm a very common and ordinary event, or was it uncommon?

When did the windows get broken? Were they already broken before Jesus was in the hallway, in anticipation of imminent gunfire? Or were they broken in the seconds between Jesus being shot and the shooting started that was directed at the crowd? If the latter it supports the idea that the timing of the shooting was spur-of-the-moment rather than meticulously planned in advance.

The absence of ANY new information on this massacre in over a week is very strange. Nothing. Zip. Nada.

I think the FBICIASWAMP has discovered he was a leftist loon and they have no way to hide it except what they are doing now, which is being silent.

I think we have a winner! If his political leanings were truly unknown, CNN/MSNBC would be making up stuff about him being a white supremacist without fear of contradiction.

Crazy how quiet everything has got on this.

Crazy that certain” investors”were selling shares in Vegas businesses hours before.



Uhhhhhhhh.... the concert was on a Sunday night. Nobody was selling shares in Vegas businesses hours before the shooting.

Some are claiming that it was incendiary rounds hit the tanks. Anyone know if a tracer will leave this type of damage?

I’m not surprised by the media’s willful ignorance but I haven’t heard Rush, Hannity, Levin, Savage et. al. ask it either.

WHAT HAPPENED TO THE ISIS CLAIM ???
The media coverage on this is truly bizarre. Here you have the “Muzzi” ISIS claiming involvement showing up everywhere in the UK press but gets buried here in the US..

Wether or not a connection to Paddock can be made that claim gives us an opportunity to examine their justifications to commit atrocities.

Why wont they ? Perhaps it’s because according to their codex known as Sharia the actions taken by Paddock has been sanctioned by Almighty God.

But because most political perverts don’t believe in such a thing as God they can’t concieve of followers of Islam believing in what they are doing is actually serving God. It must be something else. So the progressive perverts running the show avoid bringing that up and blame guns.

The name Paddock is also interesting: "paddock" [pad-uh k] noun "A small, usually enclosed field near a stable or barn for pasturing or exercising animals." Curious that he was firing directly into what could be described as a pen full of people. There's no such thing as coincidence...

Yes—for quite a while using this late actor.

Also: Notice the former head of CounterIntelligence at the sheriff’s news conference.
Also: Notice the bullet casings on top of SP’s blood pool.
Also: Notice the blood stippling above his mouth- means he was shot externally/murdered not internally/suicide

Pervert Weinstein has knocked this massacre right out of the news cycle.

Why is that? What did they find in Vegas?
