There are
so many holes in the official story of the Vegas concert shooting, anyone who
buys it should consider laying out cash for condos on the moon.
File this
one under: GUN ENTHUSIAST WITH LARGE KNOWLEDGE OF WEAPONS USES RIDICULOUS
RIFLES THAT ARE NOTORIOUSLY INACCURATE. That's called a contradiction. Oops.
SMART
GUNMAN CHOOSES DUMB WEAPONS.
The
latest piece of fraud? The bump stock revelation.
A bump
stock is a legal device that turns a semi-auto weapon into a simulation of full
auto: faster fire rate. Legislators are falling all over themselves to ban it.
According
to press outlets, the accused shooter, Stephen Paddock, brought not one, not two,
not five, but 12 rifles to his hotel suite at the Mandalay that were outfitted
with bump stocks. See the photo below.
At the
same time we're told Paddock left a note in his suite that revealed he was
calculating distance and gravity and other factors---he was carefully plotting
out his upcoming shooting spree to obtain the highest degree of accuracy.
There is
one problem with that claim.
Bump
stocks aren't accurate. And if Paddock had even superficial knowledge of
weapons, he would know that.
Reason.com:
"No one seems more mystified by the sudden enthusiasm for bump
stocks---from both gun nuts and gun grabbers---than gun store owners. Because
bump stocks sacrifice accuracy for speed hunters, sportsmen, and most other
enthusiasts have little need for them, some experts say."
"'I've
always thought these bump stocks were just a novelty,' Andrew Wickerham, owner
of the 2nd Amendment Gun Shop in Las Vegas, told The Christian Science
Monitor. 'They're not that good, and they're hard as hell to control'."
"'I
will order them if someone wants one, but I highly discourage them from
purchasing. It's not safe, they don't work, and it's a gimmick,' Tallahassee
gun retailer Will Dance told CNN Money."
One of my
source on weapons wrote this: "There are some devices (like AutoGlove and
Bump Fire) that can simulate full automatic fire, but they cannot be used
accurately or effectively."
"The
[weapon] on the right [in a photo taken in Paddock's hotel suite] with the Bump
Fire device has something like an EOTech or RedDot optic that is only good for
close quarters shooting and out to maybe 75 yards [far shorter than the
distance between Paddock's suite and the concert grounds]..."
Again, if
Paddock was making careful calculations to ensure accuracy in his shooting
spree, the last thing he would do was bring TWELVE rifles outfitted with bump
stocks with him.
Yet
another piece of the official scenario crumbles.
Were
these twelve rifles planted in the hotel room? Was the room set up by others as
a stage prop?
