Vanity - TV, Media, LEOs miss the basics on Stephen Paddock, why?

Posted on 10/03/2017 3:11:11 AM PDT by JLAGRAYFOX

The media would have us all believe that mass murderer, Stephen Paddock was just an average "Joe or Jim" with no shady background, and that he just simply snapped and, in cold blood, murdered 59 innocent people and wounded more then 500 people, his fellow Americans. Really?

I think not. I believe this evil, hateful, "SATAN" human being was highly motivated, focused, strategic, thinking and 100% percent determined to carry out his vile attack on his country and it's innocent citizens.

You would think that the authorities and the media charged with determining his motive would have hit the basics with an "average Joe", hermit, but not so, so far!!!

By basics, I mean was he a registered voter, was he a Democrat, Republican, Independent, a Liberal, a Conservative, a Progressive, a Left-Winger? Did he actually cast a vote in the 2016 POTUS election? Did he support or donate cash to Trump, Clinton, Sanders, etc.? Did he participate in any political rallies or protests? And...on and on...you get the drift, I'm sure.

These are things and facts we, the American people, should know already...but nary a word from the either LEO authorities and the TV/Print media....not a word!!! Shucks....I wonder why?

You don't rent a room with an ID.

When was the last time you stayed in a reputable hotel? I am always asked for a picture ID when I check in.

The left HATE the police and they hate small government, BUT they want us to give up our own guns to the government and the police so THEY can protect us all. WTH?!?!?

And how will the gun controllers collect your guns if you won't turn them in willingly?

They'll send - wait for it - guys with guns to collect them...

Supposedly, she was a hostess at a hotel. I’ve not seen if it was the Mandalay but if so, then he could use her ID to get a discount. But, if he was going to die, then what’s the point of a discount? Unless, she honestly didn’t know anything about his plans and got the reservation in her name for him. None of the story we’ve heard makes any sense.

I think he was dead before a single bullet was fired out the windows.

Then who, pray tell, was doing the shooting?

Yet nobody knows “nuthin’!”

Right?!

The "Hispanic" couple that warned concert goers of peril. They know more.

Marylou, ex-wife Peggy Paddock, and former companion Connie Kay McCain all know more.

That brother, Eric, who speaks for the family, he certainly knows more. Funny how both his father and brother became professional gamblers in Vegas, despite not growing up "up under his influence". They all sound like a bunch of con men.

Do you know your neighbors? Not many people do these days. I’ve lived here forever and used to know everyone. Not any more.

Not everyone has a FB or twitters or has any sort of social media face. I certainly don’t and couldn’t care less what flavor latte Joe Blow had this morning or if Betty Lou is in a relationship or need to be disgusted looking at second cousins once removed all line up in a family picture with their tongues sticking out.

But you can be sure the feds could turn my or anyone’s web searches into anything they wished.

He used Marylou’s Players Club Card. Though, it’s strange he’d want his gambling tracked or needed a discount on his suite if suicidal.

Las Vegas Players Club Card

What’s a Las Vegas players club card, you ask? It’s your ticket to free stuff and discounts. Technically though, a Las Vegas players card is what the casinos use to track how much money you’re betting and how often you play. The more you play the more points you accumulate. You can redeem these for free things. If the powers that be see that you’re spending a good amount then they reward you with some pretty impressive comps. Your free points qualify you for special rates on rooms or sometimes free rooms, food and shows. High rollers get free top-notch accommodation, like the penthouse suite, and may even get additional service like a personal assistant and a dedicated limo for the duration of their stay. The free stuff doesn’t stop when you leave Vegas. As a Las Vegas Players card holder, expect to receive special offers in the mail to lure you back after you leave.

Up to 15 weapons in the hotel room and another 50 at his house. This doesn’t sound like a demonrat.

I spent my career living in hotels, but you are correct in that it has been a while since my last stay.

In your scenario, how did the mass murderers get out of the suite ahead of the police and avoid detection?

That's easy. They planned this down to the last detail. They dressed up as cops and hid behind the door/bathroom/other bedroom and blended in when the cops rushed in.

Who really knows what happened? Was it really just some old drunk gambler who was killed for his room or was he an evil mastermind? Whatever it is, we're not getting the full story.

First, the gf was Indonesian. Then, she was Aussie. Now, she’s Japanese?

She was once married to a guy in Australia. Someone needs to get an accurate timeline on her and her heritage.

With graying hair, she’s a bit long in the tooth to be a mail order bride.

The divorce story is fake. His ex-wife was interviewed and they’d divorced years ago and she’s been remarried for like 10 years now. She said she hadn’t heard from him in many years.

You are 100% correct. You got it!!! However...I doubt we, the people will ever get the real honest to God truth from the FBI or the Media. Why” It would destroy the entire Democrat Party, for quite obvious and clear reasons. Think Democrat, nutcase, Kathy Griffin, calling openly for POTUS, Donald J. Trump’s head. SAD!!!

He “conveniently” killed himself after mastering those weapons. Maybe someone else did it. Yeah, yeah, tin foil hat and all that.

Maybe because it's only been a day since the incident.

With so many deaths and injured scattered all over the place and not having this guy on their radar previously, this is not like the drive-thru at a fast food joint where you can get something to eat in less than a minute.

Patience is called for to allow the investigators to do their jobs properly.

As for the media, well, that's another story altogether.

"We can’t keep guns out of peoples’ hands if they can be smuggled across the border"

Interesting point. They do support gun laws while admitting it wouldn't stop motivated bad guys. But dont support the wall because it wouldn't stop motivated bad guys.
