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.

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

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.

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.

Las Vegas is a Den of Iniquity. Gambling, prostitution, every kind of debauchery imaginable. Satan frequents that place and his army of demons routinely possesses people like Stephen Paddock. According to his brother Stephen Paddock was not a religious man. I say he was.....he worshipped gambling. That was his God and it destroyed him along with a lot of innocent people. We all worship a God. Some of us have many Gods. Some worship sex, others worship cocaine, others worship themselves. But there is only one true God, the God of Abraham. Him we must worship, otherwise eventually our false God(s) will lead us to ruin.

Repent America! See what is happening to our country. Turn away from evil and embrace the truth as preached by Jesus the Christ. Time is running out.

He was a psychopath raised by a psychopath, according to the official narrative. His brother comes off as somewhat disturbed as well.

It is odd, as it was with Lanza, that his mental illness manifested in this way. Even a psycho has to have a "why", one would think.

All of the Islamic attacks are very easy to understand, for example. The Dutch guy was easy to understand.

He was surely living outside the law in some way. Connected to the mob would be my guess. Actually wouldn't surprise me if he was a mob guy that converted to Islam.

Correct. There is more to this story.

I suspect there are multiple elements members of media are withholding.

Or he didn't do it? I'm no conspiracy theorist by any means but it wouldn't surprise me one bit if he was just a fall guy.

11 weapons at Mandalay Bay and 18 more back at the ranch. Hmmm...

He smells like fish too, IMHO.

Quite a few people were thinking the same thing on NOV08-2016.

I think we are going to see more of this. Unlikely, he was almost identical to the Alexandria shooter? Politics has become quite insane since Trump won the office and the left are pushing the racism, hate and Trump is evil narrative to extremes. The media and never trump republicans push the same narrative.

Don't forget the shooting in Alexandria where the shooter asked "Is this where the Republicans are practicing" and had a list of republican names.

I certainly imagine the shooter is a democratic leftist or was heavily influenced by the rhetoric they are pushing.

Insane people with guns is as American as apple pie. Accept it as part of our culture. No need for any changes. This is part of who we are.

A white male with an affinity for guns is the most likely mass murder in the history of the US.

Has there been any speculation about the huge amount of money Paddock was sending to the Philippines?
