Paddock has to be the most unlikely mass murderer in US history.

Owned 4 homes, personal aircraft, multi-millionaire, no known ties to any extremists groups, never had any serious issues with the law, this is a complete head scratcher.

No way he was a dude that just snapped. He was planning this carnage for sometime, maybe his girlfriend has some insight.

Some are comparing this to the UT tower shooting but that shooter was later diagnosed with a brain tumor and that was a possible explanation for the UT shooters murder spree.

I just don't know anymore, it's not guns that are to blame or vehicles or explosives or any other means a madman decides to use in order to kill innocent people. It's like there's a societal mental madness, that seems to periodically manifest itself into these insane mass murders.

I don't know. I'm 58 and this shite was rare when I was a kid. These mass murderers have really become more frequent the past 30 yrs.

He could have blown six figures playing baccarat, been cursed out by Aldean leaving his hotel room, and found out he had 3 months to live with some kind of cancer that day

Who the frick knows

If there is any real motivation we will find out

A lot of people are making him out to be "normal" but consider that he wasn't close with his family, he was twice divorced, he has a sketchy girlfriend, and none of his friends have come forward. It's also unclear how he amassed so much relative wealth. Dude seems kinda sketchy to me despite the lack of a criminal record.

Yeah, it's going to interesting if/when they give any motive for this madness. TBH, there is not going to be a motive that makes sense anyway.

Don't you mean, you'll watch fake news and trust that they're telling you the truth?

No he was clear on what he said and will be able to sort the fake from the real.

Probably can also express his own thoughts clearly without the gay use of emoticons as well.

He sounds like a psychopath who tried his hand at life and found success in business but not personal areas.

Reached a point where he quit giving a frick about humans.

His pops was a bank robbing jail breaking fool so maybe there are some hereditary factors or just plain old wanting to make dad proud.

Exactly. His father was a psychopath who had nothing to do with his family. That shite can catch up to you same way as alcoholism or drug abuse or any other dormant psychosis.

Yeah, but it's so strange, he was 64 and from everything I've heard about Paddock he was never in trouble with the law, no reported mental health issues.

So why wait until you're 64? Seems awfully late in life to be making that type of decision.

The more details we learn about this guy and the lack of any friends, family, online trail, photographs, work history....


dude is a former CIA agent. Spent the past 30+ years as an agent and in retirement decided he had enough with the current corrupt state of the IC and flipped.

Has the crisis actors expose started yet?

How soon did you wait before claiming this was a false flag?

Well, one of the canned solutions that comes up, more mental health spending, won't come into play here because to get to this guy on that scale you'd have to institutionalize about 10 million "odd loner" people just like him. His only distinguishing characteristic is the money to do it on the scale he did.

We are stressing people the hell out over trivial shite. People are more anxious and depressed as they've ever been.
