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.

“How about a domestic one?”

How about the psychotics in ANTIFA?

IMHO

That’s the first thing that came to my mind when the word “international” was used.

The SECOND greatest EVIL that happened was the MEDIA and DEMOCRATS “usual suspects” instantly striving to turn the terrible carnage into a POLITICAL talking point. Another example of the Left converting a terrible event into a vote garnering opportunity.
Be it fire, hurricane, flood or other natural disaster, this is the follow-up.

The FBI has become laughingstocks. Months and months of investigation to find out if Trump had ties to the international Russians but a few hours and no ties by this guy. Federal Bureau of Incompetence.

Freako Judge Napalitano this morning on FOX said the definition of a terrorist act was it had to be political. Sure, tell that to the victims and families who lost loved ones that this wasn’t pure terror.

The obvious could be true: he's a white liberal elite who hates Trump supporters...

The first and only motive that came to my mind when I saw this was Antifa. It has the money, organization and motive.

Law enforcement looks for motive, means and opportunity to solve a crime like this, and it's staring us right in the face.

“The FBI has become laughingstocks.”

8 years of Obama will do that.

How is it that more is not being made of a Hispanic-looking woman warning concert-goers 45 minutes before the shooting started that they were all going to die?

Hispanic looking or middle-eastern looking?

Add economic ruin from gambling debts plus a failed romance, and there’s your viable motive. Especially if he quit antidepressants cold turkey.

If Paddock had ties to Antifa, this fits the definition of domestic terrorism.

I’ve made the argument that all people are religious, and the most dangerous ones are those that worship the god of atheism - themself.

They are constrained only by fear. Once one reaches their later years (as this guy was, and I am) they realize that your life span is really only a single day. It is as if we get re-incarnated every day with full memory of our past.

And if the person is not constrained by “fear” and thinks they would like to play a game of Grand Theft Auto in the real world, the amount of damage they can do before stopped can be incredible, especially if they are intelligent.

This man acted in such a way. All moral value his actions, and the impact his actions on those he killed, as well as their loved ones, comes from his god - himself. He could have relished this the way a person relishes such activity in a video game. And as in so many of those games, it is imperative that your final act is to ensure you do not fall into the hands of the world. They could make it hard on you for many future one day lifetimes.

There is nothing more dangerous than intelligent, fearless and committed atheist. Since most leftists are atheist or “atheistic agnostic”, this is why they want guns controlled. They project their own perspective on the rest of us, though, thankfully, through fear, or training by religious parents, they can’t bring themselves to do what this guy did.

He also is a sort of D.B. Cooper, if you get my drift... Things will change.

So why is he quoting some silly (and likely bogus) statistic on American gun ownership declining? I would not tell a telephone survey about whether or not I own guns.

Saw a picture earlier that showed two widely separated windows on the 32nd floor busted out. What is that all about?

What gets me is with all the presstitutes attending that presser, not a single one asked about ties to domestic terror groups.

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

They can't even get it straight as to whether or not Tom Petty is alive.
