I’m actually open to the possibility that this was an ISIS-related attack that had nothing to do with Islam.

“Paddock grew up to be a millionaire with a seemingly good life. What went wrong? Did he convert to Islam and follow ISIS? Most likely he was working with ISIS. This attack should not be a surprise, as ISIS had threatened to target Las Vegas some time ago.”

ISIS called for a lone wolf attack on the Las Vegas Strip in a chilling ‘call to arms’ video released in May, 2017

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-4940156/ISIS-video-called-lone-wolf-attack-Las-Vegas.html

A propaganda video by ISIS that emerged in May called for a lone wolf attack on the Vegas Strip.

The video the terrorist group that showed footage of Caesar’s Palace, the Bellagio Hotel and other icons from the casino row on South Las Vegas Boulevard.

Though the footage has been determined to be from 2015, authorities deemed the threat credible - particularly in the wake of the Manchester Arena massacre, and as the then coming Memorial Day holiday weekend which was expected to bring big crowds to The Strip.

‘I think anytime somebody goes on the internet and makes a threat that they’re going to conduct a lone-wolf or any type of attack, it’s our responsibility to view it as a credible threat,’ Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department Capt. Christopher Darcy, who heads the Southern Nevada Counter-Terrorism Center, told the Las Vegas Review-Journal.

“Authorities” have not had time to audit all his electronic devices, check his finances, go over the papers and items found in his homes. They blurted out there was no radical islam link for one reason, to try and divert attention away from the most obvious cause. Trump needs to find out who authorized that FBI statement and fire them on the spot. (He won’t).

Im guessing he likely worked outside the law.
If not a Muslim himself.. he wouldn’t have a problem struggling drugs, guns ..or people for them.
His gambling and real estate was how he laundered his ill gotten loot.

I'm not going to bite until someone comes up with actual evidence instead of a "makes sense to me!" gut feeling or whatever.

“Paddock’s ability to seal himself off is the first clue. “

It’s the first clue that he was a career criminal and conman like his dad. Seeking to be ‘invisible’ is what professional criminals seek to do.

Perp was a longtime, bigtime, international high-roller. The casinos must know a lot about him.

Especially since the Sheriff slipped during his presser and used the word “radicalized”.

How did he become a millionaire? Having a work history with the US postal service and the IRS doesn’t seem to be the answer. There is something very weird about this story of him and his “girlfriend,” who is married to two men.

As was posted elsewhere on FR: Supposedly, the FBI was using this guy and his resources in a sting operation to move weaponry to domestic ISIS enclaves. He was supposedly double-crossed by some rogue FBI agents, and then went totally ballistic (no pun intended), went over the deep end, and supported ISIS with this massacre. That’s why ISIS is claiming him as their own. IF true, even an element of it, talk about an embarrassment to the FBI. And IF true, then they’ want to cover it up faster than cat that just took a crap in the sandpile making Deep state have much blood on its hands. This plausible explanation would answer a lot of unanswered questions, especially in regards to the quantity and type of weapons. When it comes to FBI and ISIS, nothing would be a surprise.

Words have meaning to me. I was posting on Monday morning that this was, by definition, terrorism. It may not have been “Religious terrorism”, but that only discusses the motive, not the act or its expected result.

When you harm a few people as a threat of harm to a LOT of people, and the latter feels terror, you have committed a terrorist act.

“Paddock’s career working in the postal service and IRS is telling, also.”

That explains it.... He went Postal... And the IRS explains a lot too.... Wonder what he did... Former Director... Lois Lerner grunt?

I think this conversion to Islam is a rabbit hole. Where would he have been converted? An imam handling out korans in the casino? Reported Danley is a catholic.

I am leaning towards a nefarious deep state conspiracy.

64 year old millionaire gambler turns ISIS. Doubtful at best.
