In the aftermath, the Trump administration signed off on a bump-stock ban that went into effect in 2018. It’s been challenged in the courts. We never got a solid motive for Paddock’s rampage, only a lot of conjecture. Every avenue regarding this investigation wound up being a dead end. For years, we knew nothing about Paddock’s motivations for committing mass murder until now, but skepticism abounds as the new theory is that the casinos were mistreating him. After nearly a decade of investigating, Paddock committed the worst mass shooting by a single person in US history because he felt disrespected at the gambling tables. For lack of a better term, this is quite anti-climactic. Authorities still maintain their official position that no motive could be determined to satisfy why Paddock committed this crime. Yet, if this is one step closer to the truth, what were the FBI and local law enforcement doing all this time? This was the big reveal: casino mistreatment

So..."Killer didn't like the way a cocktail waitress served him a drink, don't believe any other reasons for motivation that may come out in the next few days."
Here is what I found from news sources. HOWEVER, there has been quite a few years for the FBI to come up with a “reason” which many doubt.
https://www.4029tv.com/article/las-vegas-mass-shooter-motive-fbi-documents/43470459
“The high-roller gambler who opened fire on concertgoers on the Las Vegas Strip had lost tens of thousands of dollars while gambling weeks before the mass shooting and was upset about how the casinos had treated him, according to FBI documents made public this week.”
It was supposed to be cover for the assassination of the Saudi prince. But he was rescued.
Correct.
If he had a hate for the casino he would have destroyed the casino, not people having a festival in the courtyard.
A gas explosion, a major fire bombing or something of that nature.
That doesn't even suss out. All that weaponry was worth a fortune. If he was a gambler who lost his butt he would have sold his armory for a new stake.
Anyway, I agree with you; I'm not buying this at all.
Trying to come up with a plausible story.
They failed.
This is the first reasonable explanation I have heard.
I had no idea that a person could make a living playing video poker or any of the other video machines in a casino. Do the casinos know this?
It's so relatively easy to program these machines so as to guarantee that the casino wins in the long run that I am surprised that the casinos don't do something about this.
Color me unconvinced. You don’t bring 14 AR-15’s and 8 AR-10’s up the service elevator over a period of a whole week for that. The guy was a known gambler, yes, but he was also a known (illegal) weapons dealer. Practically everything we know about the thing has already been vetted by multiple government agencies. Not much real grist for the investigative mill is left.
Asset gone rogue or activated?
[This guy’s wife/GF was Arabic iirc.]
Filipina.
Since he was hanging out with Filipinas, there should have been enough selfies/pics of him to make a stop action movie. Instead they only have one single picture.
It wasn’t an FBI op, but they were in on the coverup, and they own Lombardi. John Cullen has done the heavy lifting here.

Somehow it seems perfectly credible that local cops and the FB of Panty Sniffers would recognize the potential for a mass shooting, and step back to allow it to happen, for the sake of appeasing their liberal betters’ gun confiscation scam. Anyone who thinks red flag laws are meant to deter shootings is not paying attention.
Right. If not then why shut down the investigation and reports to the public about something that killed and injured so many people?
If he was accurate a man I heard interviewed said the shootings from above went on long after the shooter was dead.
How could that be?
And were the stories true that more shots were fired at the ground level during the panic?
We haven’t been informed so we’re supposed to move on.
Proof of that idea: the biggest mass shooting in USA was immediately excised from all public discussion. And never cited by gun grabbers as an example.
If that’s all it was, why has the FBI never allowed the ATF to examine the weapons he used?
To this point, we have nothing other than the FBI’s word that he sued bump-fire stocks.
“”This was absolutely without a doubt an FBI operation, the FBI has become the most EVIL of all the alphabet agencies””
Bump that...
You have to know how to play them and you have to know when to stop ahead, after a streak (like 8 hits in 20 and you have cleared 3-1).
You don’t bring 14 AR-15’s and 8 AR-10’s up the service elevator over a period of a whole week for that. The guy was a known gambler, yes, but he was also a known (illegal) weapons dealer. - Billthedrill
Otherwise peaceful country music concert, reports of shooter on the floor, Saudi prince hustled out, conflicted communications among law enforcement, supposed shooter found dead...
Vegas is a long way from Chicago for so much cattle pen aroma.
