His brother Eric tells DailyMail.com his family have no idea what happened to make him shoot
'He was just a guy. Something happened, he snapped or something,' he said
The brother of the Las Vegas shooter said that he was a normal guy who must have 'snapped' before carrying out the worst mass shooting in American history.
In an exclusive interview with DailyMail.com, Eric Paddock said that 'something happened' to make his brother Stephen kill at least 50 people and injure 200.
Eric said that there was 'absolutely no indication he could do something like this' and said that Stephen had no political or religious affiliation.
He said: 'He was just a guy. Something happened, he snapped or something'.
Speaking from his home in Orlando, Florida, Eric said: 'We know absolutely nothing, this is just, we are dumbfounded.

I smell a community organizer.
This attack took lots of planning.
Ditto ...
Yeah, good point. When/if the truth really comes out this will be way more than a random, snapped old white guy.
I say antifa, through and through.
He apparently did not have a criminal record but was “known” by the local PD for some reason.
Pretty hard to believe that somebody “just snapped” and then planned in detail a massacre and followed through and executed 50+ people.
Yeah, you snap and cut someone off in traffic, you don’t simply “snap” one day and plan out a massacre.
This family is...not normal.
Not everything is politically motivated. Sometimes people just go crazy.
Before the day is out, “Fake News” MSM will blame this shooting on President Trump. As usual, Democrats will find a way to politicize a crisis.
There are a lot of ranges in Vegas where you can rent full auto guns and shoot them on the range. Maybe he had access to some inventory.
That was my thought, also.
This was not some idiot Bernie Bro with a $100 rifle.
And, Eric.....do you really know if this is your brother? Have you seen the body from where you are in Orlando?
Believe NOTHING from the MFM (”rhymes with other” effin media). Listen more to what they DONT say.
Reminds me of another shooter...
police say he was “known” to them.
does this mean he had a criminal record?
What the heck, wake up at 7, check the news and see that some guy shot up a concert. Take shower, get ready for work, get to work, check news, find out shooter is your brother and immediately call the media.
Cue Jon Lovitz, “yea, that’s the ticket.”
“...no religious affiliation....”

Maybe that was the problem.
It sounds like his wife/gf was a Muslim. Odd coincidence
Yep, $20 says that, like the Republican softball shooter, this guy was a solidly anti-Trump, Bernie bro. and couldn’t cope with the shrillness of hate from the MSM and took matters into his own hands.
And the non political non religious acme shooter was conveniently dead when they found him. Fishy as all heck.
I have a trach scar I received from a little incident in the A Shaw in 71 and it looks nothing like that, that’s a 13 and looks like a prison tat. In the early years the Aryan Brotherhood were commonly tattooed with the number 13. Aryan Circle, first letter A, third letter C. Reason I suspect he’s an ex felon.
