He also had several pounds of tannerite at his house in Mesquite.

I have a lot of questions at this point, but one thing for certain
he did not just 'snap'.

Absolutely correct, IMO. He did not just "snap", this took time, money, patience to avoid throwing up red flags & being noticed, and careful planning.

"Snapped" my ass.

And Steve Paddock's father had a history on mental illness?

Where did you see that ?
I know his father was on the most wanted list for robbery.

Good ole Chris Matthews just suggested the hotel staff should have known something was up from how heavy the shooter's suitcases were.

What an asshole.

Like more laws?

Sorry does that piss you off more than people dying. My bad

Not at all. Pretty sure murder is illegal as well as automatic weapons in most states. I'm not sure how you figure more laws will solve the issue.

Same way the solved it in most of Europe and Australia.


Mad how blind Americans are to the options of loosing their weapons over Saftey of the general public.

You think this was bad? Did you see what Pol Pot, Hitler, Stalin, and others have attempted to do after gaining the public's disarmament?

You must be a youth. Very foolish to wish people you don't know to become defenseless marks of crime and hate.

I'm not sure if this has been posted yet. I haven't had much time keeping up with the thread. I 've been trying to avoid it to be honest after hearing about the loss of my old ship mate who was at the concert . While browsing his FB page I came across this video . Apparently Somone recorded the shots coming from the 4th floor ?

Diagnosed psychopath according to the NYPost.

“Since he has utilized firearms in previous crimes, has employed violence in attempting to evade arrest and has been diagnosed as being psychopathic, [Benjamin] Paddock should be considered extremely dangerous,” Palmer M. Baken Jr., agent in charge of the Phoenix FBI office, said at the time, according to the Citizen.

I don't know if that's heritable though.

There was a specific ISIS video threat to Las Vegas made after the Orlando shooting.

ISIS issued another longer official statement that called Paddock "Abu Abdul Bar al-Amriki".

take it with more than a grain of salt though.

That makes no sense. Why then not just go after the casino or whatever other establishment you owe money to and shoot that up, if you're gonna kill yourself in the end anyway.

Because it doesn't make sense.

Neither does shooting up a bunch of innocent people.

Explosive material was also found in a vehicle, which would indicate he was planning more. So again, I don't buy money troubles as the cause.

Yes, "the explosives" is an interesting bit. Then again, who knows what would drive a person to do such a thing?

I'm just saying it's very probable.

I'll add some pepper to that "official" statement that some automatically believe.

I'm not saying this was ISIS at all, just that they did make a threat against Las Vegas. However, the same video also made threats against at least one other city too. And that video threat is over a year old.

Redundant post is redundant.

I'm not either, don't worry.

Fox.
I'm rewinding to hear what martha said to mark furman

"Wanted for robbery and was termed a psychopath". Had to turn on the Close Captioning.

After watch the lower floor video some more times, it seems to be out of sync. Might just be a coincidence.

Thanks

a reply to: Wardaddy454

I know you're not.

I didn't think anyone really was at this point. It's just one of those coincidences ... until something else comes up that makes it an actual possibility beyond coincidence.

Ah cool, thanks for clarifying..
Missed that part.

Now looking at all angles, I would like to see receipts
for the Nitrate. Also, where did he learn the tactical
stategic knowledge? If his computer search turned
up clean? He didn't just come up with all this out
of thin air. Something seems ultra fishy.

Here, ketsuko linked this for you

William Dafoe would be incredulous.

You're tellin me it was one guy with 20 guns?
