Vanity: There has been essentially no new news about the Vegas shooter in days. Why?

There has been no new news for days about the mass shooting in Vegas. It feels like the case has already gone cold. Do you think law enforcement is keeping big news from us? I find it amazing that there is virtually no news on this story anymore.

Feds haven’t finished making a lie to fit their narrative.

I understand that. It still seems odd to me.

Since we’re all playing ‘armchair sleuths’, my opinion is that something more or different was intended to happen, and things went wrong.

Media got over it. He wasn’t a card carrying Republican TEA Party etc etc...

Back to talking about the NFL and DACA and I don’t GAF about either of those (from the DNCmedia’s stance).

Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.

Either they are still unsure about the truth, OR they are unsure about how to cover up the truth.

“Using the same type of logic, since he had so many guns that’s proof he was a 2nd amendment, Trump loving conservative.”

You betcha. And likewise to everyone who has ever used a gun to commit a crime. Get real.

In most cases there is ancillary evidence that supports a motive. In this case the (alleged) absence of it leaves us with the crime itself and what that tells us. Again, we know he passed on several prior targets with a remarkably different makeup and chose this one. Ignore that all you like, but it IS the only indication of motive.

And I’d add this CONJECTURE, if the shooter had chosen one of his prior lefty attended venues, every news outlet would be screaming at the top of their collective lungs that he was a white supremacist Trump supporter.

Doesn’t surprise me you fail to see the lack of logic in your statements.

IF he was such an anti-Trump liberal he would have been fully aware of the make up of the events he cased well before doing so. IF he had help of some organization behind him THEY would have known the same thing. I don’t think it mattered one bit who he was shooting at, he was just shooting.

I think his choice was simply a matter of convenience. Close to his home base, making the logistics much easier and in a setting where he was known and wouldn’t stick out.

To claim that the fact it was a country concert is absolute proof he was anti-Trump is so self-serving and short sighted it’s laughable.

And let me make it clear, I’m not saying he wasn’t politically motivated. We just don’t know yet. I’ve seen no evidence either way at this point and neither have you.

To my knowledge, insanity has not been proven hereditary. According to WEBMD, mental illness itself occurs from the interaction of multiple genes and other factors — such as stress, abuse, or a traumatic event — which can influence, or trigger, an illness in a person. Others say that heredity can be an influence if a believed virus in their DNA can be stimulated. But they can’t, as of yet, find the virus. Who knows. And if that’s the case, an autopsy won’t tell them much except what part of the brain was destroyed. And I can answer that one now, the one needed to keep him from dying. Everything after that doesn’t mean much.

Beyond the evidence in plain sight. You are correct.

What evidence is that? And don’t make the country concert claim because that is not evidence.

It’s a crowd of 25 year old women in short shorts.

I mean....I guess that’s a Trump crowd. Maybe.

Oh it’s evidence.

Your supposition that the Mandalay was chosen because it’s familiar, might be true. After all Paddock chose it, so it’s evidence. Just like he chose his victims.

Both are evidence with likely reasons for each, you just choose to ignore one of them.

I think you’re right about that. Given the contents of shooter’s car, he certainly had the bomb ingredients available.. perhaps for a contingency action should something go wrong, as you say, or he had to back out of the 32nd floor scenario.

Probably so. I ask you to also consider that the media will attempt to harm our second amendment rights to the best of their ability. I believe it is reasonable to conclude that the truth will be suppressed unless it serves their narrative.

“$33,000 per month each (assuming that means per capital) for power? I don’t believe it. No one would stay there.”

That kind of manipulation was possible when there were three broadcast TV networks and a handful of daily newspapers. (I had to put the news in front of papers because I haven’t seen a paper in so long I suspect it’s possible younger readers might not recognize the shorter reference.)

Now, anybody can find and broadcast news. People who know the truth will let us know. We just have to decide whose story is logical and consistent enough to be true. There are also groups like Judicial Watch, which brought the Clinton email scandal to light.

The dinosaur networks and mainstream media are dying. Their control of the narrative is dying with them.

That explanation has zero merit. He was able to shoot for 1 damned hour!! Whether he shot or not is just hindsight. What the hell were they doing? That door should have been off the frame and the FIRST responders ( not the hotel security guard— what is his story?) should have been standing on paddocks neck at minute 13. There is NO excuse for that delay.

How did they know he would not start shooting. Please answer that. Terrible delay. I would the whole lot of them and the commander on TV!!

After a long enough period of silence, they probably figured either he had jumped out the window with a parachute, or was dead.
