Was Vegas an FBI sting gone bad?
Renew America ^ | October 7, 2017 | Cliff Kincaid

Why is there no motive for the Vegas massacre? Why did Stephen Paddock have a secret life?

It is terrible to contemplate, but the possibility that Stephen Paddock was an undercover federal operative or informant cannot be ruled out. He may have been set up or used by ISIS and/or a federal agency in a scheme that backfired.

The feds may have thought they were going to catch ISIS in the act of preparing a major terrorist attack. ISIS terrorists may have thought Paddock was one of them, but realized at the last minute it was a set-up. They claimed him as one of their own anyway.

You’re kidding. John Podesta’s son in law?

Megan Podesta Rouse isn’t married to the FBI agent.

This is what I still believe. He was showing weapons to ISIS under the pretense that he had converted. He had a bacon sandwich in his room, the ISIS buyers killed him, and then fired on the crowd.

Here’s the crazy part. The top 5 floors of Mandalay Bay is owned by the Saudis, so they may never have even had to run away.

Yes, it is a little curious. BUT there are TONS of places to shoot in the desert (and indoor ranges) in and around Vegas. Lots of people with rifle cases and ammo, even in the big hotels. (True, not allowed, but who wants to leave that stuff in the parking lot??)

Just because you’ve never done it personally, doesn’t mean it’s not easily or commonly done.

This short clip from a longer video in the taxi proves at least two shooters.

There are "far away" shots and "sitting right on top of you" shots and the length of the bursts do not match.

I always thought spraying the concert with bullets was a plan b.

The security guard stumbled upon a room full of guns, ammo, cellphones, electronics and who knows what else.

The guy who rented the room had to die. The attack of the concert attendees a diversion.

What was the original plan or target?
Where are the other terrorists?

I think he was working under cover and was exposed:

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3592652/posts
...Prosecutors said that Al Bahnasawy also communicated with an undercover agent posing as an ISIS sympathizer about wanting to “shoot up concerts cuz they kill lots of people.”

Think about it. Looks like Paddock was identified as an agent by the peace-loving muzzies and the Mandalay Bay event was his death warrant. There were 59 victims.

That IS incriminating evidence against the FBI. They can never hide the acoustics of that day, they can only lie about it.

There is still no tape of the guns being transported to the shooter’s room. Who brought them up to the room? Where is the CCTV footage?

"He had 23 weapons in the hotel room and had reportedly bought 33 guns in the past year."

The guy’s motive was one of four things:

1. A homegrown Jihadi.
2. A rabid leftist.
3. A guy who was nuts.
4. All of the above.

I'll take what's behind door number 2...

The word is guy started acquiring all his weapons in November of last year.. What happened in November of last year.?? The Election of President Trump.!!

A leftist he was... He was seen at liberal protest on several occasions... He was photographed there... Him and the girl both...

I do find it very curious why the folks who know he have not come forward... (?)

Could be.

I wouldn’t rule out anything.

My vote for most plausible conspiracy theory is something related to Fast and Furious. Some sort of anti-gun, anti-conservative combo. They get 2 for one that way. Kill off a bunch of conservatives and add more fuel to the anti-gun movement. Plus hopefully weaken Trump, cause some terror, give the libs an issue to run on in the next few elections, etc.

“He had an escape plan, which means this wasn’t about a suicide mission”

then why shoot himself? so early in the whole event? or why stop his shooting rampage so quickly and be silent for almost an hour before being found dead?

I currently think someone shot him to look like suicide.
I also question why Campo was only shot once in leg if numerous bullets were shot threw door at him?

“Professional hitman?” That makes a lot more sense than small time landlord with cash to burn and certainly more sense than someone consistently beating the house.
