    Hmm... maybe I was mistaken. I could have sworn I read that somewhere in one of the early news articles. But it could have been "fake news" from a kooky source quoting one of Alex Jones outfits or something, so who knows.

    I can understand that police might be reluctant to release full details right off the bat while they conduct their initial investigation, but it would be nice at least when they DO release details, that they get those details right the first time, so as to avoid speculation.

    I was looking around for something I had read earlier
    Since I found it I might as well add it here

    Exam of Las Vegas shooter’s brain unlikely to unlock ‘why’
    https://www.reviewjournal.com/crime/...to-unlock-why/
    The condition of Paddock’s brain also could be problematic. Police have said only that Paddock killed himself as officers closed in on his 32nd-floor room at the Mandalay Bay. But leaked crime scene photos that Clark County Sheriff Joe Lombardo has said were authentic showed that the loner from Mesquite shot himself in the head.

    That means that while some of Paddock’s brain tissue was available for study — probably preserved in formaldehyde before being shipped to Stanford — key parts may be gone, Leger said.

    As far as someone shooting themselves in the chest goes I've read that women are more likely not you shoot themselves in the head, vanity I guess. I do know of an incident where I grew up where an elderly gentleman with terminal cancer waited til his wife went shopping. He took down the shower curtain, laid in the bathtub with the shower curtain over him then shot himself through the heart, under the curtain so as not to leave a mess for his wife. Not common but it happens.
    Your right, shooting in the chest is not common, but not unheard of. My wife's aunt's husband (also recently diagnosed with cancer) recently committed suicide by shooting himself in the chest. A more famous one was ADM Boorda, who killed himself while the Chief of Naval Operations shot himself in the chest on the Navy Yard at his house.

    On media collusion with false flags or entire fabrications;
    “I remember saying once to Arthur Koestler, ‘History stopped in 1936’, at which he nodded in immediate understanding. We were both thinking of totalitarianism in general, but more particularly of the Spanish civil war. Early in life I have noticed that no event is ever correctly reported in a newspaper, but in Spain, for the first time, I saw newspaper reports which did not bear any relation to the facts, not even the relationship which is implied in an ordinary lie. I saw great battles reported where there had been no fighting, and complete silence where hundreds of men had been killed. I saw troops who had fought bravely denounced as cowards and traitors, and others who had never seen a shot fired hailed as the heroes of imaginary victories; and I saw newspapers in London retailing these lies and eager intellectuals building emotional superstructures over events that had never happened. I saw, in fact, history being written not in terms of what happened but of what ought to have happened according to various ‘party lines’.”

    Las Vegas gunman Stephen Paddock was quite the fan of President Donald Trump before he killed 58 people and left another 500 injured—the worst mass shooting in recent U.S. history.

    Paddock, a millionaire who reportedly would gamble up to $1 million a night in casinos, was attracted to the president's politics because of the boost the stock market has enjoyed since Trump took office, Clark County Sheriff Joe Lombardo told KLAS, a local CBS affiliate in Las Vegas, during a two-hour interview.

    Paddock said "he was happy with Trump because the stock market was doing well," Lombardo said.
    ..
    ..
    However, Paddock had lost a "significant amount of his wealth" since September 2015, which caused him to become depressed, Lombardo said, adding that the sudden changes could have been a "determining factor" in Paddock's plan.

    Hmm... Sheriff Joe has figured it all out.

    So if they don't know who Paddock was talking to how do they know he made the comments about Trump? Didn't read like a supporter to me but then again the article is somewhat biased taking the time to include the comment from Forbes about the economy doing better under five other Presidents.

    Apparently Sheriff Joe has his sources. Perhaps more details will come out in the days ahead...

    Holy Crap, boys!

    Here is a new theory that is totally insane but actually makes some sense. It also dovetails with what is happening in Saudi right now:

    http://boards.4chan.org/pol/thread/148325171

    THE VIP WAS THE CROWN PRINCE!!!!!!!!! VEGAS SHOOTING WAS AN ATTEMPT ON HIS LIFE!!!!

    SEE:

    NEW INFO ON VEGAS,CROWN PRINCE WAS THE VIP BEING ESCORTED (THEY TRIED TO ASSASSINATE HIM):
    >>148321423

    TROPICANA VIDEO OF VIP BEING ESCORTED:
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rd-qz6ei-UM
    __________________________________________________ _____________________________

    >KSA VIP, Mohammed bin Salman was in Vegas on Oct. 1st. He's the guy at the rear of the Tropicana video.

    >There was a planned assassination attempt on the prince, but he was away. It wasn't FBI or CIA or anyone planning the assassination, it was loyalists of Muqrin bin Abdulaziz, the "next in line" for the Saudi crown.

    >It's important to know that there wasn't one or two assassins - there were lots. All of the "active shooters" you've heard at the different casinos were armed Muqrin loyalists. FBI was there in advance as was CIA. They planned on stopping the assassination and did not expect what went down in Stephen Paddock's room.

    >Paddock was to sell weapons to the two guys who were planning to assassinate the prince. The pair got word during the deal that the prince was not located at Mandalay Bay and that Paddock was dirty. They killed him and shot out windows. One fired at gas tanks at airport while other fired at crowd. FBI entered room 2 and killed both.

    >I've heard rumors about how dicked over the DNC/GOP/CIA/FBI are going to be as this comes to life. No idea if q-anon is larper or not. My guess is probably not.
    Mohammed bin Salman is the reformer in Saudi. He has ordered the arrest of some big hitters who are behind funding of ISIS and probably funded 9/11. They are also the big money-bags behind the DNC & GOPe Swamp.

    Maybe this is why there has been silence from the sheriff & FBI. Definitely a Seven Days in May type scenario if true. Where's that popcorn?
    Telling the truth is treason in an empire of lies.

    To add more info to this, the sauds have 5 full floors of their own in mandalay bay, with their own presumably moslom management and security.

    The Saudi conspiracy theory does sound more plausible, with all the holes in the official police narrative so far.

    It's amazing, just like the missing 600 kids and teachers.

    What gets me is no one knows anything and will not tell people that it is VERY strange
    that no one knows anything.
    While no one ever listens to me,
    I am constantly being told to be quiet.

    2 Months After The Las Vegas Shooting And Still Virtually Nothing Is Known
    Two months after the deadliest mass-shooting in U.S. history and virtually nothing is known about the shooter’s motives…

    One month ago, I called for the Las Vegas massacre not to simply fade away amidst a revolving news cycle and urged public questioning toward the official narrative – or lack thereof. About the only thing we know for certain is that gunfire first started firing on the Route 91 music festival crowd at about 10:05 p.m. but what happened just moments before is still unknown.

    isis still says he was their guy

    This guy has written some interesting things about the Vegas shooting.

    Doug Poppa. Saw him on Tucker tonight and he asks some interesting things also.
