Since Monday home of @MandalayBay security guard, Jesus Campos, guarded by private security-- today armed. #LasVegasShooting
So have they released the name of the mosque he attends?
17 weapons. I’m not saying the “innocent whale” theory is correct though.
Also, if someone is alone why would they need 17 weapons for this and risk blowing their cover?
I think more likely he was involved with some terrorist or criminal types for money. Who either framed him or he participated in the plot and got left as a patsy.
100% BS he made any consistent money gambling at a glorified slot machine. More likely he only reported the winnings to cover up some ill gotten money.
I’ll bet this security guard has seen something we dont know about yet and is being protected. Or is being convinced not to talk...
I loved that show.
Ann Coulter asks some good questions in her article out today:
http://www.anncoulter.com/columns/2017-10-11.html#read_more
Gamblers who are beating the house are not given $500 glasses of port. Refer to the profit/loss spreadsheet. And yet, according to his brother, Paddock was treated like royalty by the casinos. Which means he was losing.
Apart from outright theft, the only way to have an advantage over the casino is by card-counting. That’s not cheating and it doesn’t guarantee a win. It merely allows the gambler to make a more educated guess as each card is played, thereby tilting the odds ever so slightly in his favor. Still, if the casinos suspect a customer is counting cards, he will be promptly escorted off the premises.
And counting cards only helps with blackjack. Paddock’s game of choice was VIDEO POKER. That’s a computer! It’s programmed to ensure the house wins. Not all the time, but at least often enough to make casino owners multibillionaires. Anyone who plays video poker over an extended period of time will absolutely, 100 percent, by basic logic, end up a net loser.
So why are the media insistent that Paddock was getting rich by playing video poker?
I don’t know what happened — and, apparently, neither do the cops — but it’s kind of odd that we keep being told things that aren’t true about the Las Vegas massacre, from the basic timeline to this weird insistence that Paddock made a good living at gambling.
The most likely explanation is that the reporters and investigators are incompetent nitwits. But the changing facts from law enforcement and preposterous lies from the press aren’t doing a lot to tamp down alternative theories of the crime.
Among the questions not being asked by our wildly incurious media:
Why would Paddock unload 200 rounds into the hallway at a security guard who was checking on someone else’s room before beginning his massacre?
How can it possibly take eight days to figure out when the alleged shooter checked into the hotel?
Why was Paddock wearing gloves if he was about to commit suicide?
Have any other solitary mass shooters ever had girlfriends?
If Paddock wasn’t making money on video poker — and he wasn’t — why would he be cycling millions of dollars through a casino, turning every dollar into, at best, 99 cents?
Therefore not armed?
So Campos and this unarmed maintenance man remained on the scene, waiting for the police, after 200 rounds were fired at them?
They better be good guards. Because if Campos knows anything that implicates the Deep State, he will be the same temperature as Seth Rich.
This is TWA800, all over again.
Or Benghazi.
SUUUUPER opaque investigation.
People involved are even throwing around the word “Transparency” — a sure sign there’s lying thicker than molasses going on.
What time were the windows smashed out?
No one reported the noise downstairs?
Hotel think that Keith Moon was staying there or something?
I don’t think a gun sale makes sense.
I also don’t believe he was so crazed that he wanted to surround himself with extraneous guns and ammunition for the thrill of it.
That leaves two options, IMO.
He may have been planning something that involved others, but for some reason the others either didn’t show up, or they turned on him and then managed to escape.
The other alternative is that he was completely framed, and the weapons were used as props.
I think the plan that went sideways is the best explanation. That is why I am highly skeptical that Paddock did this completely by himself.
FWIW, Laura Loomer said they even have sensors on the windows.
Yes, that is what we are supposed to believe.
I suspect the guard radioed for help to Mandalay security. In turn they didn’t call the cops. This makes me wonder, where was Mandalay security after
shots were reported. The casino has armed guards. Probably all of them could make it to the 32nd floor in six minutes.
Coulter is one of the few journalists asking these questions.
I have found the best commentary to be in blogs frequented by ex-military types.
I can’t evaluate any of the commentary related to guns or ammunition, but it seems like those with real shooting experience have the most insights on the amount of planning involved in this shooting.
Paddock meticulously planned this operation. For what purpose, I can’t say.
If Paddock wasn’t making money on video poker — and he wasn’t — why would he be cycling millions of dollars through a casino, turning every dollar into, at best, 99 cents?
Money laundering.
Paddock receives, $1M illegally, say as an arms dealer. He can’t just deposit the $1M in a bank. Too many red flags. However, if he gambles it away in Vegas he pumps $1M into the casino and gets back about 90 cents on the dollar. Now he’s got $900K ‘laundered’ thru gambling that can be declared on his taxes and deposited, minus the cut to Uncle Sam.
So he was an official hall monitor?
Bttt
