Reader comment: Too many things don't add up.... Background, shooting from the fourth floor, nope, don't believe it. More will come out. Like the football BS, this event was about American traditions of patriots, country music, gathering together, etc. There has been a move to hit anything that is American tradition. Conservatives are the season ticket holders at football games and country western concerts. They're God, country, flag, Mom, and apple pie stalwarts and major gun owners. This was another event to call for a gun ban and kill an American tradition of patiots gathering together in celebration.............P
Sunday night Las Vegas shooting at country music concert. Shooter in a high room at the Mandalay Bay Resort Hotel, a long distance away. Deadliest mass shooting in US history. 518 wounded, 58 dead.

With the
body count and wounded numbers rising, and the concert shooter, Stephen
Paddock, dead, here are a few questions:
Does this sound like a man who snapped? This shooting was premeditated. The shooter chose a high military vantage point where he could blanket the target.
If he snapped why didn't he take his revenge out on the casino that took his money?
What
weapon was he using? That is important in deciding whether Paddock could, from
a significant distance, inflict the reported destruction of life. Or whether,
as earlier reports/rumors suggested, there was more than one shooter.
At least
ten weapons were found in the shooter's hotel room. He had checked into the
Mandalay Resort Hotel several days earlier. How did he bring in all the
weapons? Disassembled? In gun cases? Did he have prior experience with weapons? It will be interesting to see if we will see the hotel security tapes from cameras inside the hotel. I have my doubts we will or if we do will they be edited or doctored by the FBI or Homeland Security?
In an
interview, Paddock's brother said he was absolutely shocked, and his brother,
Stephen, was "just a guy." No motive, no reason to go on a rampage.
True? False? What turned him into a killer? Had he ever been under psychiatric
care? Had he been prescribed, for example, SSRI antidepressants, which are
known to push people over the edge, into homicidal violence? If he was
"just a guy," did that include significant experience handling weapons?
Was he capable of bringing all or some of the weapons into the hotel in pieces
and then assembling them?
The
Guardian: Paddock's brother said, "He's not an avid gun guy at all. The
fact that he had those kind of weapons is just - where the hell did he get
automatic weapons? He has no military background or anything like that. He's
just a guy who lived in a house in Mesquite, drove down and gambled in Las
Vegas. He did stuff. Ate burritos."
Police
reports seemed to indicate, at first, that police broke into Paddock's hotel
room and killed him. Then the press were told that Paddock committed suicide as
the police entered, or before they entered. Or was Paddock suicided by persons unknown.
For a
time, police were searching for Paddock's friend, companion, roommate (?),
Marilou Danley. Reports then suggested they had her in custody. But a later
report indicated she was overseas, and the police were satisfied she had
nothing to do with the shooting. How were the police able to determine that so
quickly? Her absence from Las Vegas would not rule out the possibility she was
involved in the planning.
Then we
have this: "CAIRO, Oct 2 (Reuters) - Islamic State has claimed
responsibility for a shooting that killed at least 50 people and wounded over
400 in Las Vegas early on Monday, and said the attacker had converted to Islam
a few months ago."
"'The
Las Vegas attack was carried out by a soldier of the Islamic State and he
carried it out in response to calls to target states of the coalition',"
the group's news agency Amaq said in reference to the U.S.-led coalition
fighting the group in the Middle East."
"'The
Las Vegas attacker converted to Islam a few months ago'," Amaq added.
True?
Bogus? An ISIS attempt to take credit for an attack, with which they had no
connection?
One of my sources sent me a tweet, it named
another Stephen C Paddock, above, who is 44, who has been convicted of several crimes
involving lewd acts on a child and child molestation---11/28/01 (South
Carolina), 4/06/94 (Indiana), and 11/09/89 (Indiana). Reportedly this Stephen Paddock had been confined, at one point, in a
South Carolina mental institution. He is a registered sex offender. See the link below.

Then
there is the story of a concert goer who was warning people before the shooting
that they were all "going to die." Who is she? Is she involved? Will she and her companion be found and questioned? How did she know "they were all going to die"?
The
Express (UK): "One woman, who was at the Route 91 music event, claimed an
unidentified woman had told other concert-goers they were 'all going to die'
after pushing her way to the front of the venue...The witness, 21, told local
news: 'She had been messing with a lady in front of her and telling her she was
going to die, that we were all going to die. They escorted her out to make her stop
messing around with all the other people, but none of us knew it was going to
be serious'...She [the winess] described the lady as Hispanic. (Asian ?)The lady was
escorted from the venue along with a man. The unnamed witness, who was
attending the event on her 21st birthday, described the pair as short, both
around 5 ft 5ins to 5ft 6ins tall, and looked like 'everyday people'."
In every
one of these mass attacks, average news consumers assume the police and the
media "have the story right," and all remaining questions are
"just details that will eventually be worked out."
That's
not a good assumption based on previous "false flag" shootings. It's especially not wise when major national agendas
are on the line: removing guns from all citizens; accelerating militarized
police presence in every aspect of daily life; keeping citizens in a state of
anxiety, inducing their decision to stay at home behind locked doors and not
venture out; reduction of public events of all kinds; degradation of the
economy.
Such
agendas can result in violent events which are not what they seem to be.
