The shooter
From the mind of the chief | 10/2/2017 | ChiefJayStrongbow

Posted on 10/02/2017 3:23:30 PM PDT by ChiefJayStrongbow

I don't see how someone that is purportedly normal snaps and decides to take out that many innocent people.

What if he wasn't the real shooter? What if he's shot and left behind so that the real sniper can just make his escape?

If his room adjoined any another rooms, they should be looking at the adjoining room occupants, and studying the hallway cam footage for the comings and goings from those rooms.

I hope they are already looking into this. I just don't want someone that is capable of this level of evil to still be breathing.

The Charles Whitman in the Texas Tower comparison idea hit me this afternoon too.

There’s something happening here
What it is ain’t exactly clear
There’s a man with a gun over there
Telling me I’ve got to beware
Think it’s time to STOP
Children, what’s that sound?
Everybody look, what’s going down?

How ironic that today the USSC started a new term and I wonder too if deep state did this so Trump will have a hard time getting another conservative in.

I saw it reported that people in the adjoining room called down to the desk to report gunfire in the next room, and the desk said they were aware of it and to take shelter in the room.

Someone could have intervened.

There just aren't enough Americans trained to fight with the appropriate tools.

Supposedly people in Vegas heard there were multiple shooters . Nothing to verify this except someone calling in to radio show.

Another shooter could have walked into an adjoining room.


Both broken windows were in the same suite. Schematics have been posted showing the suite with two separate bedrooms and a big common area spanning the corner. Corner suites are big (and expensive).

Could forces be trying to tarnish Trump so that he is not re-elected ? Making the claim that this is what we get with a Trump Presidency ?

Her debit card and something else of hers was found in the room....so the real question was she there the first day to help him set up or did he steal it.

This event sounds like something the Shadow Government would order the deep state to carry out in order to tarnish the Trump presidency and to bolster the libterd anti gun movement.

Definitely a possibility.

There was one burst of fire that seemed to last at least twice as long as the other ones. Maybe another weapon dove tailed into the action.

I would not be shocked to learn that this guy had accomplices.

I'm not surprised by the lack of any background or apparent training for this guy. Everything about him seems to point the possibility that his "career" involved drug dealing and/or arms trafficking and/or money laundering for Latin American cartels.

One big red flag for me was that he apparently had an accounting background and worked as an auditor for Lockheed Martin years ago, but supposedly made a lot of money as a "high-stakes gambler" in Las Vegas over the years. That's a red flag for me because I've been told by people in the casino business that accountants and engineers are the worst customers they have ... they hardly ever gamble at all, since they're analytical people who know the odds are stacked against them.

Whether or not they did (and I tend to agree w/you), the leftist pols and media would like nothing better than to keep Trump from another nomination to Supreme Court!

Agreed. Very astute. Whitman was a nut just like this guy.

How come it took the LEO 72 minutes to get into the shooter’s hotel room?

Victims have all been removed so they didn’t look at trajectories. It would take time to do that for 59

With our government, better known as the swamp, I'll believe just about anything can happen... I believe the "Swamp" will do whatever it needs to do in order to continue it's advance toward "Globalism."
