Still No Answers About the Las Vegas Shooter’s Motive
Rush Limbaugh.com ^ | October 5, 2017 | Rush Limbaugh

RUSH: As always we start with Las Vegas. Here we are more than three days later, we still have no motive for the Las Vegas shooter, even after talking to his girlfriend, who, by the way, is an Australian citizen, who was apparently married to two Americans at one time and who appears to have used two different Social Security numbers and numerous aliases.

She also seems to have lived in numerous places at the same time. I don’t know if anybody’s ever asked about her legal status in this country. I don’t know if she has a green card. I don’t know if she is a full-fledged citizen. She’s a native of the Philippines. It always goes back to the Philippines. It seems like everything circles back to the Philippines.

She’s a native. She has Australian citizenship and an Australian passport. But I don’t know what her circumstances are in this country. I don’t know if she has a green card or some special visa to allow her to live in the country all these years. Now we’re being told that Paddock, the shooter, gave her somewhere between a hundred thousand, $126,000 to buy a house in the Philippines.

And we haven’t heard anybody raise the question about the house. Could it be part of Paddock’s escape plan? Did he hope to hide out in the Philippines after doing this? We’re being told that he had an escape plan, which puts the kibosh on the suicide-by-cop theories. We also said that there was a picture of the suite in which he stayed. It looked like there might have been a note. People are thinking it might have been a suicide note. It wasn’t that.

The law enforcement officials in Las Vegas are increasingly saying that he could not have done this alone. That he had to have some help somewhere along the way, which means, if true, that there’s somebody else who knew what was going on. There are now other people who are claiming there was a second shooter. We’re gonna have a grassy knoll aspect of this. Somebody is convinced there had been a second shooter. We also know that the shooter or somebody else tried to blow up the jet fuel tanks across the street at McCarran International Airport.

This guy is supposedly highly educated, a scientist, very knowledgeable, wealthy and all that, but didn’t know you couldn’t blow up jet fuel tanks by firing into them. They are protected. And jet fuel, it’s kerosene. And there are steps that are taken for just this kind of attempt that don’t totally prevent, but they take great steps to make sure that such attempts, firing bullets and so forth into the tanks, would not result in an explosion.

They found a couple holes in the jet fuel tanks and they patched them rather quickly.

his motive:

Ego — felt undervalued by society

Politics — typical Leftist mentally disturbed individual

Religion — take your pick, each one has its own zealous nutjobs.

They’ll use the same excuse they always use.....

Since there has been a certain pattern of unprovoked attacks and mass killings by Islamic jihadists over the last forty years in the U.S., I think until proven otherwise there’s a presumption that similar attacks and killings like this one are done by Islamic jihadists.

Didn’t stop the FBI from jumping the shark in the first 48 hours saying it’s not terrorism. If the motive is not known, how can they rule this out.

I'm guessing this will be handled like the Oklahoma City Bombing. "Second guy? Second guy? What? We never said anything about a Second guy ..."

I wonder if most who are getting hyperventilated about this ever considered the basis for a motive just might also hold other clues that would disappear if any known motive at this point were revealed?

We know he had his pilot's license, and owned a plane, so he has some familiarity with airplane fuel. He was also very familiar with Vegas, so he would probably have an idea what kind of fuel was in those tanks. Also, he was by all accounts a smart guy who prepared for this.

Why would he shoot the tanks on the very low chance that he would hit them, and the even lower chance that they would explode?

It seems that the primary reason he went through the trouble of renting the smaller room and knocking out that window was to get a good angle on those tanks.

If he went to all that trouble, why didn't he at least try firing tracers or the other specialty rounds that might have had a (marginally) better chance of causing an explosion?

Got News also broke stories in the past that were totally baseless or of no relevant importance to anything. I followed them for a short while right after the inauguration but got tired of wasting my time on mostly nothing burgers.

Re: “$126,000 to buy a house in the Philippines.”

As far as I know, Americans (and I presume all foreigners) are not allowed to own homes or businesses in the Philippines.

Also, if someone owns a vacant home in the Philippines, like a seasonal or vacation property, local squatters can legally move into the house and take possession of it.

Anyway, it’s possible the killer was just trying to do the right thing and give money to his girlfriend so she could buy a house for herself and her family.

$126K would buy a very comfortable home in most parts of the Philippines.

Casing is on top of blood. Wouldn’t that mean he would have been shot twice?
