An Act of Pure Evil From the Thirty-Second Floor and What the Media Are Not Telling You
IWB ^ | Robert Carbery

Posted on 10/03/2017 5:22:28 AM PDT by davikkm

Addressing the nation on Monday, President Trump said the Las Vegas shooting was an “act of pure evil.” This much is true. With more than 59 killed and over 527 injured at the Route 91 Harvest Festival after a gunman opened fire for over ten minutes from the thirty-second floor of Mandalay Bay, my prayers go out to those in Vegas or those who have lost loved ones.

This is undoubtedly a tragedy and one that has rocked the nation. It shows how vulnerable we all are at the whim of a supposedly deranged man. But it also reveals how there are so many more good people out there than bad. The heroics of our law enforcement on the scene and other everyday Americans helping others amidst the chaos that erupted in Vegas on Sunday night reminds us all how fortunate we are to live in this country where most of us respect and love each other.

However, there are many questions and suspect storylines evolving as the dust is settling after the greatest mass shooting in recent American history was perpetrated.

but the FBI have issued a definitive statement saying there are no connections to any international terrorist organization. As the media falls over itself and searches for the illusive motive of the shooter as information pours out about his background, the truth is getting lost in the frenzy that is now in full force.

I am reminded of the Kennedy assassination and Oswald. Are we certain that the act was not perpetrated by the "deep staters"? Hmmm? Who benefits? FBI, CIA , Dept of State. How did all that artillery get up there without being detected? Hmmm? Questions. Questions.

If the guy was a Psychopath, he’ll have no ethos. His father was diagnosed as a Psychopath, and Psychopathy is a physical brain condition, not a result of their childhood environment. It’s a very interesting subject.

There was a flashing strobe type light in one of the windows at the hotel very low down. I saw it on some news reports the next day.

I don’t trust anything I’m hearing from the fake news media.


That goes without saying and you can add the FBI. The standard MO is that the FBI is assisting state and local LE. But never buy that lie. If the FBI is in it, they are controlling it.

So if you don’t go with the so called stated story you are a nut. Nobody knows what happened but this was a very sophisticated attack. Not just some crackpot in a tower.

Why not leave a body to cover-up the real attackers.

What is the flash rate in the Twitter vid as compared to that from a fire system strobe?

If the vid is faster than a fire system strobe, then the vid is showing muzzle flashes.

What is the line of sight from the 4th floor to the concert area?

Check out this video. At the 4:58 mark i- could this be gunfire coming out of the 3rd or 4th floor??!!

I’ve stayed at Mandalay Bay and those windows don’t open. They would have had to break them out lime he did on the 32nd floor. It would be interesting to know if that was the case

Sure looks like firing from the lower floor there.

What appears to be muzzle flashes are very distinct, and it is not a reflection, because it is only from that window.

https://twitter.com/joebennett4321/status/915066349126393856

Check at 4:57 in the video—video from car passing Mandalay Bay picks up rapid flashing from a 4th(or so) floor window.

I noticed this Tweeter sent this to Sean Hannity also.

Thanks Cowgirl of Justice.

Strobes are set off on the floor that is affected.

The fourth floor and the 32nd floor are separated by 28 floors. Notice no other room is affected.

It could be a coincidence—then the hotel fire system would log that as an “event”.

Why “two widely separated windows on the 32nd floor busted out”

Keep asking that question. I can see Columbo walking around in his trench coat scratching his head saying that over and over while chewing on a cigar.

As I wrote on another thread this morning, its not like shooter is markedly improving the field of view for shots at the massive target zone area from 30 stories up from 2 different windows ~40 feet apart.

Put the window clue together with the timeline and statement of ammo left over in the room. Why would a single mass murderer throw ~ 500-600 rounds down range in ~20 minutes, then “commit suicide” with ammo left over and the SWAT team still not gently knocking on the door (ultimately still most of an hour away).

The Arkancided dead body of the “shooter” fits with the other clues only if someone else was involved at the shooting location, initially helping to throw some lead down range from the 2nd window. Next step was to waste the useful idiot, with gambling debts, before police response, and then quietly slip out to somewhere else to play the role of a frightened tourist/gambler.

I think it likely that the only things to be found in the background of the dead shooter is that HE BOUGHT SOME GUNS. Is this, to borrow a phrase from something else I read today (sorry I don’t remember for attribution), “Fast and Furious on steroids” engineered by someone else?

The cell phone video I saw was clearly muzzle flash from about the 4th floor and almost to the center of the building and it was no strobe because the audio picked up the sound.

Then it most certainly IS a terrorist act.

1. ISIS connection. If true, then it’s political.
2. Gun-grabbing opportunity for democrats. Definitely political.
3. Assassination of country music fans, a mostly conservative, white, pro-Trump demographic. Definitely political.
4. Hushed up by the FBI. So something to hide. Definitely political.

If you listen to the police scanner at about the ten minute mark there is an officer witnessing seeing muzzleflashes from “low down and near the middle” of the building.

he was shooting from two windows, the sound was echoing all over the place. I don’t think the windows open.

Terrorism is the use of terror to affect political or social changes. The creation of terror must have a specific goal to be terrorism. While this was certainly a terrorizing event there is not yet any indication that there was a socio-political goal he sought to achieve through it. If we eventually find he has ties to radical Islam or Antifa or some other extremist group then it becomes terrorism.

Another thing you can learn from listening to the police scanner is that at about the 30 minute mark one police says “there have not been any shots fired in 15 minutes”. So the shooter quit firing after 10-15 minutes but SWAT did not breach until over an hour. There was a security guard on floor 32 shot in the leg but that was in the first few minutes.

I am reminded of Lee Harvey as well but now we have the internet. It is going to be pretty hard to spin this.

... a healthy society does not encourage an outlook of grievance and helpless victimization, but ours does. People who take personal responsibility for their lives do not these kinds (mass murders) of things.” Unnamed Rush guest...

Look, lots of people have failed romances and many have faced economic ruin... and they don't slaughter Trump supporters. The difference is this white liberal elite killer saw himself as a victim of his problems - NOT THE CAUSE OF HIS PROBLEMS.

Really.

That's the liberal sickness deep that's destroying our culture ... and it's why the monster felt entitled to murder and why multimillionaire football players stage endless pity parties for themselves...

Perhaps it’s just a rumor. Anybody know who reported hearing that?
