Vegas and the Tin Foil hat brigade

Good day all. It’s been almost a week since the horror in Las Vegas. The investigation into why Paddock did what he did is continuing, and most people are waiting for the answers, if any. One group that isn’t waiting are the Conspiracy Theorists.

Within hours, we saw two things happen. The demands by the Progressive Liberal Democrats to ban and confiscate guns, and conspiracy theories start oozing around the Internet. Most of these theories revolve around the crime being a “False Flag” operation or that it was impossible for Paddock to do what he did alone. One such nut site I found is The Economic Collapse. Here the write lists 16 questions that “The Mainstream Media doesn’t want you to know about.” Most of his questions are right out of this world.

The writer begins with an accusation that the public “Isn’t being told the truth!” and goes downhill from there. See for yourself.

The public is not being told the truth about what really went down in Las Vegas. As you will see below, the evidence is mounting that there were multiple shooters and that this was an operation that was planned well in advance.

Well, so far he’s batting .500. Paddock did do some serious planning for this crime, and scouted out multiple target locations, including Fenway Park in Boston, MA. The Multiple shooters theory was debunked in minutes once all was said and done.

But according to the mainstream media, a 64-year-old retired accountant with a flabby physique that had no military training whatsoever and that wasn’t very experienced with guns was able to pull the whole thing off all by himself.

You don’t need military training to plan something like this. The venue was, unfortunately, a perfect target for a madman, and was the equivalent of shooting fish in a barrel. The ballistics already show that all the shots came from his location. As for his experience with firearms? It really doesn’t take a lot to do what he did. I’ve also read that he actually was an experienced owner. However, his decision to use the “Bumpfire” system was a mistake. (More on that later)

We are being told that Paddock was a “lone wolf” that didn’t have any ties to terror groups, and since he is now dead nobody is ever going to be able to interrogate him. But the American people definitely deserve some answers about what took place, and that means that all of us should keep digging.

The “Ties to terrorist groups” is coming from ISIS. When something like this happens, they’re quick to claim credit. To date, there is no indication that Paddock was a convert to Islam. It looks like he was just plain nuts. Next we have the writer’s “16 questions.”

#1 Photos of Stephen Paddock’s hotel room have been leaked, and one of those photos appears to show a suicide note. Why hasn’t the public been told what is in that note?

First, the investigation is still ongoing. Law Enforcement isn’t going to release that note, if there is one, right now. There is also the information that Paddock actually filmed himself during the crime. We haven’t seen that yet either, and the reason is simple. The police are still reviewing it.

#2 Were there additional shooters? A taxi driver clearly captured video of an automatic weapon being fired out of a lower level window. A video from another angle and brief footage captured by Dan Bilzerian also seem to confirm that automatic gunfire was coming from a floor much lower than the 32nd floor room that Stephen Paddock was located on. And if you weren’t convinced by the first three videos, this fourth video should definitely do it.

The first video has been taken down from Youtube. The second video does show a light flashing, however it isn’t a muzzle flash. It was a strobe light that had been flashing for some time prior to the crime. Finally, the window was intact. The hotel windows are all sealed, and Paddock had to smash out two of them to clear his line of fire.

#3 Why were law enforcement authorities discussing “another suspect on the fourth floor”, and why isn’t the mainstream media talking about this?

Simple answer. Confusion. They saw the strobe as well. All the shots came from the 32nd floor. The room in question on the 4th was checked and nothing found. Oh wait! The police covered it up and helped clean up the evidence, right?

#4 As Jon Rappoport has pointed out, it would have been impossible for Stephen Paddock to kill and wound 573 people in less than five minutes of shooting with the kinds of weapons that he is alleged to have used. So why won’t law enforcement authorities acknowledge this fact?

Because Rappoport is a moron? The shooting took close to 70 minutes, not 10 minutes. The crowd was tightly packed in a confined location. The bumpfire stock, when it was working, sprayed bullets into the crowd. Many people were “Secondary hits”. By this, I mean that the bullet hit one person, went through and hit a second person. Also, we have 573 injured people. Not all were shot. People were hurt trying to get away.

#5 How in the world did Paddock get 42 guns and “several thousand rounds of ammo” into his hotel room without anyone noticing?

He used two things. A luggage cart and this remarkable invention known as “The Elevator.” The guns were in suitcases. Because the writer is a paranoid nut, he seems to have forgotten that these firearms could be taken apart and placed in smaller cases. Not all of the guns were long guns either. A lot were pistols.

#6 How did someone with “no military background” and that wasn’t a “gun guy at all” operate such advanced weapons? Because what we are being told by the mainstream media just doesn’t make any sense whatsoever. I really like how Natural News made this point…

I won’t bother requoting the quote, you can run off and look it up. Basically, the quote from Natural Fake News said that Paddock was to out of shape to do what he did. Really? He wasn’t running around the hotel like John McClane in Die Hard, he was either sitting down, kneeling or laying on a platform to steady his aim. When he changed positions, he moved about 10 or so feet.

As for the “Advanced Weapons?” Really? The AR platform has been around for 50 years and is very simple to use. It’s not that simple to clean, but it doesn’t take someone from Delta Force to aim into a mass of people and fire.

#7 Why was one woman telling people in the crowd that they were all going to die 45 minutes before the attack?

Because she was stoned, drunk or both? They probably handed her over to the Las Vegas Police.

#8 Why did it take law enforcement authorities 72 minutes to get into Stephen Paddock’s hotel room?

Well what do you know? An actual, relevant question!! That is something that needs to be looked into. Many people are wondering why it took so long to locate the criminal and breach the door.

#9 Why did Paddock wire $100,000 to the Philippines last week?

Hey!! That’s two relevant questions!! Keep it up and you might have to cancel your tin foil hat subscription.

#10 Why was Paddock’s girlfriend, Marilou Danley, in the Philippines when the attack took place? Did she know what was about to happen?

I think we now have what is called a “Hat Trick.” Keep going! That is another good question and Ms. Danley is back in the United States and is talking with law enforcement authorities. It doesn’t look like she had any idea what Paddock had planned though.

#11 Was Paddock on antidepressants like so many other mass killers in the past have been?

Dude!! I think you’re going to be kicked out of the Internet Conspiracy Club. This is another very good question, and the reports seem to indicate he was using some sort of medication that affects your mood. People having a serious, adverse mental reaction to drugs is well known. Noted author, John Ringo posted his own experiences with someone who was taking something as prescribed by a doctor and just how bad a reaction she had, and how close it came to “Bad things happening.”

#12 Why was ISIS so eager to take responsibility for this attack, and why was the FBI so quick to dismiss that connection?

Damn! You were doing so well there too! Why? Because ISIS has a long track record of claiming responsibility for anything that makes headlines. The FBI dismissed it because Paddock wasn’t a Muslim and hadn’t converted.

#13 Apparently Paddock had earned millions of dollars “through real estate deals”. If he was so wealthy, why would he all of a sudden snap like that?

It happens unfortunately, all the time. There could be a biological reason, such as a brain tumor, the previously mentioned drugs might have done something, the autopsy should provide more details, but that’s going to take a while to complete.

#14 Why did he move so frequently? It is being reported that Paddock had 27 different residences during his adult life.

People move dumbass. By your own remarks, he made money in real estate. You might consider just how often someone in the military moves. I believe they change postings about every 2-3 years. How many times does that come to in a 30 year military career?

#15 Why were nearly all of the exits out of the concert venue completely blocked?…

The primary reason was to keep people out, not in. This was a paid event, and only ticket holders were supposed to be attending. This is actually pretty standard stuff. As to the walls, I’m curious as to just how sturdy they were. Were they meant to stop some Jihadi from crashing into the venue with a dump truck? If so, then that is another reason. If not, then Paddock should have used that method. He would have murdered far more people.

#16 Why was a country music festival chosen as the target? Was the goal to kill as many Trump supporters and other conservatives as possible? And is there evidence that Stephen Paddock was connected to Antifa in any way?

Paddock scouted out a number of potential targets before he settled on this one. The garbage about him going after Trump Supporters because they like country music was floated by moonbats on Twitter. I’m a Trump supporter and I detest country music.

The questions listed, with a few exceptions are typical of the morons who think everyone is out to get them. We saw this in 1980 when people accused the Reagan Campaign of using an Air Force SR71 to fly Vice-Presidential candidate George H.W. Bush to Paris to get Iran to keep the hostages until after the election.

We saw it again with the 9/11 attack, where the real moonbats, such as Whoopie Goldberg and Rosie O’Donuts O’Donnell claimed that it was all a plot by President George W. Bush and Dick Cheney so we could invade Iraq for the oil. One of the big “Theories” was that explosives had been secretly placed in the World Trade Center towers to implode them, that it wasn’t airliners but cruise missiles that hit the towers and the Pentagon, and that it was impossible for the towers to come down because “Steel doesn’t burn.”

Every single one of those conspiracy theories was debunked by hard science, but they still continue to be put forth. Even when all the facts come out on Paddock and why he went nuts, people will refuse to believe it and claim it was all a cover up and a conspiracy. (I particularly like the “False Flag Operation” claiming it was the Democrats who did this to push for gun confiscation)

Now, as to the weapons used and the Bumpfire stock. I’ve seen these on Youtube and have spoken to a few people who have them or have used them. These things are toys meant for backyard shooters who want to waste a ton of ammunition.

They have several problems. One, due to the way the system operates, the muzzles is bouncing all over the place, far more then if this were a military specification M-16 series rifle firing on full automatic. Paddock would have murdered far more people if he had stuck to single aimed shots instead of his “Spray and Pray” attack.

The Bumpfires are also not very reliable. Again, due to the method they use, the rifles recoil system can malfunction and cause jams. This apparently happened to Paddock. There were several periods when he wasn’t shooting and the belief is that he was clearing jammed casings from the rifles. In the worst case, he may have had to partially disassemble the rifles to get the casing out. Eventually, once the forensics are completed, the full report will be released.

Of course, what I just did was provide some possible facts. I also am stating that we need to wait for the science and law enforcement investigations to be completed. Right now, we need to take care of the injured and mourn the dead. Everything will come out eventually, including a probable cause as to why Paddock went off the deep end.

Thatisall
