save for later
The guy who targeted Republican lawmakers ) was a Bernie Bro.
I’ve read he worked at Lockheed Martin, owned a couple of homes, one in Reno and recently started living mostly in Mesquite Nv. Spent a lot of time gambling in Vegas. My take, he ruined himself financially.
Usually those kind just take their own life and leave others alone.....................
And you have this where she describes an Hispanic man and woman.
Las Vegas shooting: 'YOU'RE ALL GOING TO DIE' – SHOCK WARNING 45 minutes before attack
Even if just a 556, each bullet would have struck more than one person, passing thru the first, plus ricochets....and I bet it was a combination of those and 308s...
And who is the “hispanic” Female (and her Male companion)who said “you’re all going to die” - before the incident?
It makes me suspicious. Patsy? Fallguy?
On Breitbart, someone posted a link to a video purportedly showing the shooter at an anti-Trump rally. The man in the video (who is wearing a pink “pussy” hat) sure looks like the shooter, but there are probably thousands of people in the country who look like the shooter.
The crowd was packed in like sardines and up high on the 30 something floor, there would be head shots.
There are two windows broken out. They are far apart from each other. Doesn’t seem it would be the same room. Makes one wonder about a second shooter.
And what’s with the two Hispanics going through the crowd earlier saying, “they’re all around, you’re going to die”? Very strange.
How many people were wounded as opposed to beaten up, trampled,or even murdered by their fellow audience members trying to run and save their own lives? The panic factor could have significantly increased the death count.
500+ injured , death toll virtually assured to go higher.
If true, It would not surprise me at all.......................
The gf is a teacher? Then what’s she doing out of the country during school time? Too confusing. Other reports say she worked at the hotel and he used her ID to check in.
He had to use more than one automatic rifle to fire 1,000 rounds in less than 10 minutes.
Even the venerable SAW (Squad Automatic Weapon) would MELT DOWN and cease to function before that.
He had several fully auto weapons.
Gay Ran Teed.
Uhuh.
“escorted out” of where?
In a casino setting... with surveillance cameras everywhere?
Probably some random people hating on country/western.
>>Probably some random people hating on country/western.
Right. That must be it.

Well planned in advance—not a spontaneous act
Here’s what we have so far - nothing confirmed, but if this shooter had been suspected of being a white supremacist the American Leftist news would have been all over it. The fact that the Lying Leftist media is silent about this guy’s background is itself suspicious about this shooter’s actual background.
