I'm not sold that she has or he is in any way involved with ISIS, just seems weird. I am starting to suspect she knew something

If the effect is the same, does it matter?

I can EASILY make a silencer out of a flashlight. In an hour.

What the difference between that and going out and buying one?

I know "banning" things makes people "safe". But that's a REALLY false sense of security.

Sheriff says people passed away in different locations. Some within the festival grounds, some just outside, and others who were shot and ran away but ultimately passed away blocks away from the venue.

Not saying I’m against it just saying it wouldn’t have necessarily prevented this from happening.

That's the part the "banning" crowd doesn't get.

Banning stuff does very little to prevent crime. For the most part, it increases it.

Hey, I'm all for banning things if you think it will make you feel safe. At the end of the day, we all know the truth is you're not.

But I digress.

It is maybe a longshot, but she has muslim family in the Philippines and has worked around rich middle easterners as a high stakes private poker hostess in Dubai. He was sending her money and they made sure she was gone wellvahead of this.

He is a lonely accountant type with tons of money, who would probably put the P on a pedestal. It makes some sense.

I get all of that, I do, but a silencer has a legit purpose for a gun.

What is the value of a bump stock?

Sheriff said he is confident they will absolutely find a motive.

Sheriff says room service was delivered to Paddock's room during his stay. Didn't expound any further.

Because the whole thing is fishy.

No details out yet on him or the why.

Wife with ties to muslim family in Asia and who has worked with rich money guys in the middle east goes away just before. He is wiring monwy to the Philipinnes.

He is a perfect guy to twist around if you had a smart lady working it.

I would not be surprised.

Also wouldn't be if he is just a psychopath either though.

Probably means they know the motive and are waiting to get the GF or other info before publicizing.

They know quite a bit more, they're simply not releasing it. There is still a person of interest who is an Australian citizen and was in the Philippines during the event. It's perfectly logical that they're withholding information pending her interviews.

What is Nauseating is how simple minded and yet dismissive you and others here are.
