Paddock had a Pilot's License. Therefore....

Straight-line distance from the nearest LAS runway to the concert area is 2,200 feet. Paddock certainly had the will and the ability to cause havoc, but not only by bump-fire weapons. He could have easily rigged a general aviation aircraft with explosives and could have taken out way more than 58 people. 2,200 feet at an average speed of 150 mph: 10 seconds to impact. Please write your congressman and have them ban general aviation aircraft forever. Thank you very much.

Are you pro-BumpStocks?
Are you pro-TriggerCranks?
Outlawing those seem noncontroversial redresses. Are they not?

Dumb but you make a good point about the chosen method of killing.
He could have easily flown into the crowd and set off a bomb, killing way more people. Why didn't he just do that if he didn't mind dying?

Seriously why wouldn't he have done that? this guy was just insane in so many different ways

So Paddock was framed as the shooter while the real shooter flew off?

I actually believe his original plan was to crash land the plane in the concert area. That is why he had a pilots license.

I’ve been worried about somebody doing this at a ball game or concert since 9-11 .

At least attempt to stay informed
He lost his license because he refused to take his medications, and couldn't pass the physical
