If Stephen Paddock was a deep in debt gambler who thought the casinos ripped him off - why didn’t he go after them?
He shot up a country music festival full of innocent people. But full of pro-Trump folks. He picked his target very carefully and with months of preparation.
There are lots of angles that need to be investigated.
The muslim angle (ISIS called him one of their soldiers). He did travel to the ME last year and his girlfriend is Indonesian (the largest population muslim country).
The hateful left angle. He has lots of links to the angry left. And as they keep saying “Trump is evil and equal to Hitler” without dispute from the leaders of the left (like obama and Hillary), eventually, someone is going to follow the lead.
And we just recently had a Republican congressman and his aides nearly assassinated by another older white left wing Hillary supporter male. Funny how the left buried that story.
He seemed to have made his wealth in real estate. Did he lose it too?
NBC reported that he was “known” to authorities but with no details given. His father was once on the FBI’s top 10 most wanted for robbing banks in LV.
There will be mucho info coming in the next few weeks. Who knows where it where lead.
But I doubt he was someone who just “snapped.” Way too much planning and preparation to include wiring his girlfriend $100,000 days before he committed this crime.

His motive was so FreeRepublic could
be flooded with more vanities.
I don’t buy it. If the losses are recent, they might have been an effect of the decision to commit mass murder, not a cause. He decided he wouldn’t need his money, so he tried to have “fun” with it. I’m not sure why losing is fun, but most other vices aren’t much fun either.
He might hurt concerts; following the ISIS concert attack in the UK, this could hurt a little. He might hurt America by creating yet another push to disarm law-abiding Americans. As a leftist from Sun Valley, that damage might appeal to him. But hurting casinos? I don’t think so. I think he’s just a democrat who doesn’t mind hurting people as long as he enjoys himself.
And this event will hurt Las Vegas bad.
If he was upset at the gambling industry, he would have shot up a Casino, not getting the connection between shooting up a Country Music Festival and his hate for Casinos
Undiagnosed brain tumor ?
Doubtful. He attacked a concert, not a casino. If anything, this will make hotels/casinos in Vegas tighten security a bit which will make visitors feel a little safer inside them.
What if his M.O. was to harm the hammer indutry..?
What if he was a Jack Ruby 2.0?
If he had targeted a casino, maybe, but targeting a county western music event, no, he had some other motive.
I wish with all of these maniacs there was information compiled about what drugs, legal and illegal, they’ve taken. I can’t help but suspect the drugs, pharmaceutical and illegal, are affecting people’s sense of reality and their ability to think rationally.
Yep, this is what I am starting to conclude.
Another Deep State arranged situation, no need to investigate.
Dina Titus, (D) House of Representative for Las Vegas, said yesterday in an interview that he was winning at the tables. And said housekeeping had been in and out of his room and reported nothing out of the ordinary.
Can’t it be he was a mental case and a demonic one at that.
Mass killings at concerts in Paris, Manchester and Las Vegas.
I suspect people will prefer recorded music and movies will come out on DVD or on cable without ever seeing a movie theater.
Shopping malls are dying.
Big box stores might have to go to well-distributed checkout points and end their doorbusters.
Restaurants might have to put in armored tables.
His goal may have been to hurt the casino industry, but the gambling industry would surely like to ditch the expensive marble and mirrors and go Internet and grow its profits.
