Some Random Thoughts and Questions About the Vegas Shooting

[xotoxi]

Maybe an autopsy will answer questions.

I bet it will.

But the medical examiner will be pretty busy with 59 other autopsies trying to figure out how they died.

Lol, how did this leap into Conspiracy Theory territory, dude?

Because you are theorizing that there was a conspiracy.

Lol, I have come up with no conspiracy theory ,doofus.

You are just over-reacting, no surprise, because I am simply asking questions about the media narrative, and that does not equate to a theory of anything, bub.

The "shooter" had over an hour to fire from that room before the Police showed up.
SWAT blasted the door but you hear no gunfire on the recording as they are at the door? already dead?

The Police break in and find a Dead Gambler and a mountain of evidence at three sites? This is what they have put out.

Why would he have purchased all those guns for one suicidal shooting?

It does not add up.

Hinkley tried to kill Reagan in order to demonstrate his love for Jodie Foster. Who the hell knows this guy's motivation.

usually because 1+1 = some random number to a crazy person.

They died of gunshot wounds. Paddock will be taken to a police forensic pathologist who won't have 59 other bodies to worry about.

This case is so much like the Texas sniper case, that it would not be surprising to find a brain tumor as the same cause.

"It does not add up."

But shooting 600 people at a concert makes perfect sense? Why are you setting a standard of "sense and sensibility" for a psychopath? What doesn't "add up" is the assumption this was a completely rational process.

Just wait for the facts people. Speculation is just a nice way to describe make believe time.

Give it a rest

It does not fit the usual narrative that some loser hating his life decides to go out in a blaze of Allah Akbar when the guy is a wealthy man who owns a lot of property. So what can explain this so that it makes any sense? All that is hitting on all cylinders is that this guys wife converted him to jihadism and then fled the country, but he was supposed to be a lone gunman?

Then why did he bring so much ammo to the room and so many guns? That doesnt make any sense unless he was expecting people to help him. What else does?

How did the two hispanic women who tried to warn people know he was going to start the shooting and who are they? If they saw him, how did they live to tell? If they had inside information, how does that happen with a lone gunman?

This video sounds like here were tow shooters, one with a larger caliber gun and the other with what sounds like a .223

I am getting a feeling that this was not a lone gunman but instead there were multiple shooters in a group of multiple supporters from which the two women trying to warn everyone emerged.

Any *constructive* thoughts on this?

My thoughts are to wait and see what turns up in the search of his house and what info they release on that, his emails, innernetz activities, etc., and why his girlfriend happened to be out of the country, etc.Could be weeks before we get a decent scenario.

Very early on while rumors were still flying I heard something about this Hispanic woman who was going around warning people. Since that very early period in the events nobody has said anything about it. My guess is that it never happened and was quickly dismissed by the media and authorities.

As for his girlfriend "converting him to jihadism" what we know is that she is an Australian citizen, recently divorced, who is described on her Linkedin page as a "gambling and casino professional". Hardly fits the profile of a devout radicalized Muslim.

Some have wondered how he managed to sneak so many weapons into his hotel room, but it was probably easier than people think. If he was as wealthy and as heavy of a gambler as the media reports then the hotel staff was likely familiar with him and didn't give him a second glance. Given that he had been there for a few days and lived only 80 miles away he would have had plenty of time to sneak a good number of weapons into his room.

You can be a totally complete stranger to the staff and they wont search your luggage. Its odd to me that people are wondering how he got the weapons up to his room without anyone seeing them. Obviously they were in the suitcases.

My bad. It wasn't a conspiracy theory.

It was a conspiracy query.

Yes, I was wondering about plausible conspiracies involved in this case.


Conspiracies do exist which is why we have laws against it and the DOJ prosecutes for conspiracy.

But the medical examiner will be pretty busy with 59 other autopsies trying to figure out how they died.

My guess is that at least 59 of those autopsies will conclude that the victims died of lead poisoning.

Most long guns do not fit into suitcases. You have to have special cases, which are quite evident what they are by their dimensions.

I doubt every injury was from gunfire. A huge crowd that is in full panic is going to generate a lot of trampling injuries and at least a few deaths on its own. As for getting stuff up to your suite, comped high rollers could carry a B-52 up if they could figure out how to get it there, and nobody is going to say squat to you. Different for 'the little people', of course, but even room service isn't going to say a thing about what they see in a high roller's suite short of piles of dead bodies.

Ha ha ha ha! You're such a card! Put that in the victim's condolences book. Laughter is the best medicine, huh? I'm sure the surviving family members will appreciate it.

"Yes, I was wondering about plausible conspiracies involved in this case."

Come on man, let's be clear. You were thinking of them, and dreaming them up. You were not wondering in abject ignorance,"What such theories exist???? " I wouldn't rip you for the suggestion that he didn't act alone (which would be a conspiracy, meant to be addressed by the conspiracy laws you mentioned).

But that's one theory, not "many", or the required amount (2+) required to use the plural version, "conspiracies", as you did. What others have you dreamt up?
