A lot of people seem to think there's more to this story....... but I haven't heard anyone speculate on WHY they think some kind of conspiracy is occurring....... This wasn't some political assasination...... In my opinion..... if there is ANYTHING more to this story than just a single shooter.... the only reason for secrecy would be to maintain the integrity of the investigation towards prosecution........

From: Glunt@work

There are many possible motivations if one wants to go down the conspiracy path:

Gun Control (obvious)

More government control in general

One of the victims was the target, the rest are a cover story (Jack Reacher plot)

Harming MGM stock value

Covering up some sort of FBI/CIA operation gone bad

Covering an Islamic terror related situation

Trublu...... I'm saying that if they are hiding the fact that anyone else was involved it would be to get their ducks in a row to make an arrest and prosecute anyone else involved....... Myself..... I think it was one insane man.

From: BIG BEAR

That's some pretty deep stuff Glunt.....The Islamic terrorist one doesn't make any sense at all... If anything pointed to ISIS.... what would be the motivation of any government entity to hide those facts ?? How about gun control ?? So are you saying that some liberal gun grabbers orchestrated this in order to enact tighter gun control laws.... Come on man.....

From: Glunt@work
17-Oct-17
I'm not saying any of that. I said "... if one wants to go down the conspiracy path."

I'm sure in your line of work you have seen people do horrific things to other humans for a lot less motivation than furthering political change in a super power country.

From: Glunt@work

As for the ISIS conspiracy, the one floating around is that it was an arms deal sting with Islamic terrorists gone bad. Paddock was part of the sting, ISIS found out, killed him, carried out the attack, staged the room and escaped 3 floors up to the Saudi owned 4 Seasons section of the hotel.

Again, I'm not suggesting that happened, just showing what conspiracy theories are around.

There's a lot of crazy people in the world that do horrific things....... And there's also a lot of crazy people in the world that never hurt anyone.... but come out of the woodwork with their crazy theories in times like these... The FBI had to sort through mountains and mountains of tips and theories in the Unibomber case.... and I'm sure there will be many many more theories on the Vegas shooting in the months ahead.....

No, staying out of harms way until the dust settles, the hotel and authorities know where he is at.

For the conspiracy theorists, I have read he is an illegal using someone else's SSN.

Theorizing that a hispanic working in a hotel in Las Vegas and trying to keep a low profile may not be legal isn't much of a conspiracy. The hospitality industry hiring illegals isn't anything new.

I can't imagine why there would be conspiracy theories out there....

The shooters last known official job anyone can find proof of was from 1985-1988 as an accountant / auditor for a division of Lockheed-Martin.

The guy had every gold card to every major casino in Vegas in his wallet. Basically, he could walk into any casino and say "Where's the high roller room?" and he would be taken to it, plus get the best rooms given to him. That fact alone says he was gambling a few million dollars a year.

He owned 2 airplanes. Anybody who has been around airplanes knows that owning one is not a cheap endeavor. One of the planes was leased to a company out east that is well known for its "government work"....

ISIS has never been wrong when they claim that an attack was done on their behalf. Even when authorities originally thought they were wrong, ultimately the evidence proved ISIS to be correct.

I don't know what the exact story is, but as Hannity and several others have said, this guy was a ghost for many years and something about this doesn't smell right.

And the stuff I stated was from guys I listen to that have 10 plus years connections inside the LVMPD and Sherriff's departments. That info was passed along from those inside sources.

Those same sources say that there is a video tape where he did explain his reasoning for the shooting. Those sources also said that the investigation is sooo huge and goes in so many different directions that it will take a long time to fully investigate every lead. And last week the FBI showed up and confiscated all evidence and completely took over the investigation.

So, you guys can believe what you want. I have no idea what the truth is, but those are pieces of information from guys who have been correct about many situations over the last few years.

I believe the shooter had some help. The truth will surface sooner or later.

Well, one fact that is hard to deny is that the FBI seems to have demonstrated that they have a credibility problem which helps many of the rising conspiracy theories have some legs.

More fallout from the politization of the DOJ under Obama.

Well, Spike, when you're right about one in ten thousand tries, I guess it's time to get up and cheer. But you're a long ways from chalking up number two of ten thousand on this topic. Between the Clintons and the deaths of people silenced to keep from talking about the Mandalay Bay case, America's population should be about 300,000 in a couple of years.

Spike,

Let me know when one of your conspiracy threads actually turns out to be true. Until then, you'll continue to be the National Enquirer of the CF in my book.

I'm curious, how many hours a day do you spend scouring your right wingnut sites to find your material? When was the last time you hunted, or even stepped outdoors?

And what satisfaction do you derive from starting a thread that either gets debunked immediately, or gets nothing but the usual "rah rah" type responses? Wouldn't you prefer topics that generate honest discussion with opposing opinions from both sides?

I'll admit, I've been one of your biggest critics, but that's only because I think you're smarter than what some of your threads suggest. When you actually articulate your own thoughts, instead of copying and pasting those of others, I enjoy your perspective.

Anyway, my apologies for my brashness. I'll will try to improve on that.

I think Ann Coulter sums it up best.

From: Gray Ghost
18-Oct-17
It's interesting that Ann ridicules the media for "begging us for conspiracy theories", then proceeds to offer up her own conspiracy theory. Can't anyone wait until the facts finally come to light? Or, has our society become so addicted to instant gratification, we can no longer wait for the truth to be sleuthed out?

For the record, I've maintained all along Paddock's gambling has something to do with this. I don't have any unique insight, it's just a hunch. The addicted gamblers I've known have always been less than reputable characters, and often on the the wrong side of the law. I never considered illegal firearms as the reason for his gambling, and I'm not sure how that relates to massacring innocent people, but I guess it's as good a theory as any.

Nothing like a massacre and lots of speculation to get the press and the people off the breaking political news., Such as Democrat collusion with Russia , Uranium One., The people in England that supplied the document on Trump and who paid them. The involvement of the FBI and Comey and Loretta Lynch with the Clinton coverup. Just add a massive murder of Americans by , supposedly a man with no motive, a ghost who is a multi millionaire., and poof., It all goes away. There < i added to the speculation.

Sadly, I believe that there will be more and probably worse instances like the Mandalay Massacre. Society is devolving at a rapid rate. People are getting assed up and offended by just about everything. Social media and instantaneous news, whether true, contrived or just "not letting facts get in the way of a good story" fuel it. You really cannot escape it for long.

Personally, I think Paddock was an effing nut. I think he did this by himself. I hope I am wrong. I hope they do link him to some terrorist organization, or there was another. Some thing to justify our anger; to give some clarity to the abundance of conjecture and conspiracy. Then again lately, it seems like the waters never really clear up anymore.

""Personally, I hope it eventually comes out that he was acting on behalf of a larger entity...or at least in his mind thought he was.""

If ISIS is involved in this shooting there will be hell to pay for them. Worst case would be BLM or Antifa is involved. Not sure how it would be handled, it would be very dangerous.

From: Glunt@work

I am sure there is a lot of pressure from huge money and power in Vegas to not have the shooting be in the headlines but as we get to the 20 day mark its oddly quiet.

Biggest mass shooting in recent history (not the biggest in America's history) no criminal case pending, suspect dead and we haven't gotten basic facts like Paddocks cause of death confirmed, number of rounds, number of people shot vs other injuries, what Campos was shot with, who leaked the room photos, what camera gear did he have and how was it set up, contents of his phones and recent texts, evidence list from the room, etc.

I'm sure it takes time to process all the bullet strikes, ballistics and CCTV footage of him around Vegas and in the hotel that week but I would have expected the room and his body to be done by now.

If there was an investigation involving other suspects I could see keeping a lid on things. Otherwise just dump info out. We can handle it and the lack of info just fuels speculation.

Add Another To The "List"....

**RING**

"Hello, Special Prosecutor Mueller's Office, This is Damien may I help you?"

"Uh huh,Yes... Oh Hi , how are you?"

"Of course you can testify against Madame Secretary Clinton."

"Oh, yes! We absolutely guarantee your safety." "This is America and we protect whistle-blowers for justice with every fiber of our being."

"Uh-huh. Yes."

"We will gladly meet you and take your official statement." "Do you have a pencil and paper? ... Great."

"Please gather all of the pertinent documents in your posession, hard drives, thumb drives, recordings, notes and photos and we will meet you at 3:45 AM at Fort Marcy Park on October 27." " Dangerous? *chuckles* Of course not. We'll be completely safe." "Be sure to bring everything as Mr. Mueller is very thorough."

"A lot of evidence??" "Well, We can send a truck." "Oh, it won't be a problem."

"Great!, see you then!"

"No problem and you're welcome Ms. Wasserman-Schultz." "Looking forward to meeting you very soon."

Finally some new developments:

Being reported that Jose Campos, the security guard who was shot in the leg, went to Mexico after the shooting & Paddocks laptop in his room was missing the hard drive.

Looks like all the puzzle pieces are on the table in in place. Took a while but this should end the conspiracy speculations :^)

Why Has The Las Vegas Massacre Disappeared From The News Cycle?

From: Hunting5555

Amoebus, yes I know it was, but the level of his gambling was under reported. He was gambling millions a year to have the cards he had in his wallet.

Interesting fact I didn't know..... Gambling is a very good way to launder money.....

New info is very scarce related to Vegas since the FBI took over everything. But comparisons that have been thrown around by insiders are: Fast and Furious and Mena, AR.
