Doesn’t matter. They have already spoken to her and are bringing her back.

Now, for all those who ‘think’ they know what is not going on, chill. The investigation is underway and the last thing they would want to do is to tip off anyone else they may be trying to track down.

Too damned many Dick Tracys running around this forum only brings credence to the DU and their associated buddies that FR is just full of nut jobs.

Did it ever dawn on these people that the only way to explain the illogical on its face is to apply logic, one step at a time?

Some quality sleuthing. Those vid poker fanatics tend to stick together too, talk about streaks and preferred machines. If he was a drunk, he likely spilled his guts on occasion to one or two regulars.

“I think the female lady came to realize he was broke. Whatever fortune that he had...no longer existed.”

Interesting. That was among my first thoughts. Even if he had what I’d call “normal” money left, it’s likely he couldn’t maintain his lifestyle. For example, even if he owns the airplanes outright and free, flying them costs more than somebody with average money can sustain.

The woman left and, to him, life was now unlivable. Since misery loves company, he made as many of the hated right-leaning Country Western fans as miserable as he could before he died. His last thoughts were probably along the lines of, “There, see what you made me do?”

On the name, I don’t know. That might be a good question.

Also, early pictures showed him with what appeared to be a tattooed “13” on his neck. All the MSM later shots are at an angle that obscures that image and there is almost no discussion of it. What did it mean and why no analysis?

First of all, how are you to know the first pictures were not doctored? Maybe it was just lighting and shadows of wrinkles, imagine that at 64.

Secondly, when are we to believe any analysis by the MSM on anything. For now, I trust the PROs are looking at everything 24/7 with all hands on deck. I would prefer to wait a few days to let some of the smoke clear from the battlefield before trying to analyze where the gun powder was manufactured, as if it really means anything at all.

What’s interesting is that he lives and gambles in places with the highest concentration of HD cameras on earth. Even a crappy Reno casino has cameras everywhere. Yet there is only ONE photo of this guy with his damn eyes shut. Police haven’t found one other photo or video snippet that they could release so people can recognize him and maybe fill in some blanks on his motives or relationships?????

It’s easier for The Authorities to change from plain vanilla kind of person to something else when all the facts are in, than vice versa. Obviously, they don’t like to be wrong too many times.

I just head on a local radio news report that “he” had been recently wiring tens of thousands of dollars to the Philippians.

Maybe he was or maybe she was.

Good points, imho.

This Stefan Molyneux vid beginning about min 9:00 is an extremely important one about root causes.

The oligarchy has been busy destroying the family and solid parenting for many decades. The fruit of their efforts is multiplying atop their other evil strategies and deeds massively.

I have a good friend who did just that. Started as an apartment maintenance guy after HS - now owns & manages millions of dollars of apts.

Incredible mind for buying depressed apt. bldgs. and turning them into highly profitable ones. Generally doubles the complex value and his money.

#1. Get rid of bad tenants, select only best tenants.
#2. Make complex highly desirable - EVEN if in an undesirable area! Make apts. the most premier in area fixing all deficiencies and adding items increasing desirability. Raise rents.

Since nothing has been leaked by the FBI to the media about what ideas were in his head, it’s either Democrat terrorist like the Alexandria shooter or ISIS.

Or it could be that the Trump admin is doing a better job at managing leaks since the June Alexandria shooting.

I suspect his girlfriend blew through most of his money then left, perhaps going overseas because she feared him or just wanted to be far away now that she was done with him. Perhaps this is what caused him to want to take himself out in a huge way. Killing other people (and if he was a lefty, then he’d want to kill those on the right) seems to be something bizarre that is done to make someone “pay”.

Yes, it will never be told if it doesn’t fit the agenda. As since we haven’t heard yet a peep, we know.

I’m not saying that he “snapped” because “snapped” implies an impulsive act, as opposed to a carefully planned action.

That being said, I propose that one of his major motivations, being the owner of real estate complexes with, I assume, tenants, is the loss of revenue due to ICE cracking down on illegals. If as evidence suggests, he’s a rabid lefty, he’d “snap” and take his revenge out on what he perceives to be Trump supporters. Interviews with his brother (especially watching the video done with the body language specialist) seems to suggest that the family is - dysfunctional at best.

That’s not to say there weren’t other possible factors, such as huge gambling losses, girlfriend dumping him, alcohol, etc.

Fifty years of Public School Education have had their effect and it was and is deliberate and it cannot be undone without winning a civil war against the communists, and that is what they are, radical Marxists/Communists. It is the Israeli problem with the Palestinians. For Israel it cannot be undone short of eradicating the Palestinians or forcibly taking over and running their schools for three or four generations.

Antifa and Moslem are not incompatible at this stage. The two will at some point ally and work together if it has not come about already.

That’s a very interesting angle. Hadn’t considered a breakup due to her blowing away his $$. Then, she up and runs away to another country out of fear. In his unbalanced state, he reserves the room at the hotel in her name (unconsious wish to get her back?).

As good a bit of speculation as any!

The MSM has succeeded in trivializing EVERYTHING. SO, that way when events take place that THEY want to manipulate to enhance THEIR agenda... it’s THEIR game on THEIR terms.

Americans of course don’t challenge any of it... they ARE the last movie they saw, the last book they read, the last TV program they watched, the last radio program they heard... etc.

Americans have become fat lazy cattle who accept everything at face value... they have NO depth, NO discernment, NO perspective and NONE of the wholesome, natural cynicism that protects you from exploitation... MSM LOVES this!

You think too much.

Psycho born to a psycho. Succesful loner longs for true love. Is good at numbers and thus money. Tries to buy her love by cashing everything in and is rebuked.

He was an accountant, methodical, self centered, no friends, we know where this goes. It doesn't take a phd to figure out his motivation, it was revenge.

He booked the flipping room in advance, and moved guns and ammo into the room without anyone noticing. At least a few trips, because I seriously doubt he could carry a case or more of ammo and 23 firearms in one run.

This was an accountants act intended to inflict the most casualties, planned and executed by a psychopath. That is it, nothing else there.

The whole antifa or isis claim is just that, a claim with no evidence. Isis leaves a trail every time, usually connected to a nearby mosque. Antifa doesn't have the balls to even attempt something this stupid.

So you have 64 year old white guy, with no religeous affiliation (therin lies a big problem), no close friends, and a gold digger that he passed off as his girlfriend.

A rather sad old man with very little to live for that wanted everyone around him to feel his pain. My guess is that his credit lines are all maxxed as well.

As for who he voted for, I don't even think politics were on this guy's radar. Borderline autistic is my guess.
