Aurora aircraft (Wikipedia)
the term "Aurora" had been inadvertently included in the 1985 U.S. budget, as an allocation of $455 million for "black aircraft production" in FY 1987.[6] According to Aviation Week, Project Aurora referred to a group of exotic aircraft, and not to one particular airframe. Funding of the project allegedly reached $2.3 billion in fiscal 1987, according to a 1986 procurement document obtained by Aviation Week. In the 1994 book Skunk Works, Ben Rich, the former head of Lockheed's Skunk Works division, wrote that the Aurora was the budgetary code name for the stealth bomber fly-off that resulted in the B-2 Spirit.
1978-1984 Stephen Paddock worked as an IRS Agent

Ah, hadn't realized about the Stealth movie. I picked the video because it shows not only the Aurora name but also the SR-91.
As to the pretty big stretch: if you search wikipedia specifically for SR-91 you get this:
SR 91 may refer to:
Aurora (aircraft)
State Road 91 or State Route 91, in the list of highways numbered 91
SR-91, used to make sunglasses
As "coincidences" go I have seen worse
And about his working for LM 30 years ago. My thinking is he may already have gotten himself into trouble back then...

He was an "accountant". He also traveled extensively around the globe, had millions of bonus miles. Made large financial transactions with the treasury department , had several safe houses and an extensive armory. In the kill nest he had an elaborate security system, one camera was hooked to the door peephole.
Imo, this guy is (was) much deeper into the endemic corruption in Washington than they are revealing.
All they keep sayings he 'gambled' had a 'girlfriend', 'took pills', etc.
Heapum big cover up...

Except for the minor fact that Aurora wasn't the "SR-91", and the SR-91 doesn't exist.
Asside from that you are making some massive stretches hear
This assault rifle has been exported to at least 6 other nations, including Bosnia and Herzegovina, India, Indonesia, Jordan, Kuwait, and the United Arab Emirates. The T91 proved to be successful. Some sources report that over 300 000 of these assault rifles were produced.

I think you mean here.
Wow nobody told me this was a grammar test!!!
Thanks for letting me know.
I'm stuck on the question.... WHERE IS THE PEOPLE WHO WARNED ABOUT THIS AN HOUR PRIOR TO THE SHOOTING AND WHERE IS THE SECURITY GUARD WHO ESCORTED THEM OUT? I believe these people need to be found and questioned.

I don't want to sound disrespectful to the dead or as if I am making light of this but right now I could say that he done this because he had a deep hate of country music and it would be just as valid as any of the other theories to his motivation.
We have so little information to go on its impossible to draw accurate conclusions about what his true motives were.
So to say he might have done something 30 years ago is a massive stretch, its just a wild guess at best.
