Just breaking. A lot of repots on Twitter from people.

True Pundit reported this:

An active shooter reportedly on the 32nd floor of the Mandalay bar Hotel in Las Vegas has gunned down at least one police officer and others.

Would be helpful to see his throat...if pink boy has something that looks like ‘13’ on it.

Very hard to tell...but pink boy seems younger somehow. .

Just had an eyewitness on Fox. He said:

It seemed the shooter’s angle was to target the stage first. Then he switched windows/angle to target the exit where people were trying to escape (and then they turned and ran back into the venue).

He could feel sand splashing up as bullets hit the ground around him.

It was like trying to get out of a maze, they’d go down one path and then realize it was a dead end, and have to go back the way they came.

Lots of military people/vets were telling people to get down and were coaching people on what to do.

People were putting fingers in bullet wounds to help the wounded.

Most times ISIS suiciders make a farewell video that ISIS reveals later.

Definitely looks like Stephen Paddock and Mary Lou Danley standing right next to him.

One report sounds like he had cameras filming it.

“pink boy seems younger somehow.” —

Also, the beard and head shape seems to be somewhat different. But if you’re factoring in political motivation, you do have to consider which ideology(ies) would drive someone to target a country music fest.

Side by side photos of shooter, years apart. No ‘13’ on neck in older photo.

“One report sounds like he had cameras filming it.”—

I heard the cams were to warn him of approaching LE, but that doesn’t make sense to me at this point; how would they be positioned? IF a SWAT team got into his suite he’d be pretty dang aware of it without cams.
Unless he found some way to mount them in the hallways/entrances.

There is no "13" on the other picture either, just a skin fold "turkey neck" kind of thing.

That pic is cropped too high to see where some people see the “13” on the full “eyes closed” photo. It’s there, but I think it’s more a photo artifact of a neck gobbler.

Agree, and that could go different ways as well.

If psycho/convert to islam/leftist, the country music venue is either targeted or incidental.

He or handlers saw this opportunity at the country music show and planned accordingly. But- was it country music/trump people he was after ? Or...just a target rich gathering, and who cares who they are?

Yes, he knew what he was doing.

Thank God for those Vets and other level headed people doing what they did.

Dead now at 58 or 59.

Sheriff saying now 58 deceased, and 515 or so wounded if I heard correctly.

Yup. For jihadis or just a plain nutcase, it doesn’t matter. I was just following the left/anti-Trump train of thought that came up with someone offering the guy might have been at a leftwing protest,
