He could have been sitting/kneeling when he fired the coup de gras shot if you follow the "he accidentally shot himself and knew the jig was up" theory

I wouldn't think they would regardless of the number of shooters, they probably would all be shooting 223/5.56. If the black helicopters were behing this, I'd think they would be smart enough to all shoot the same caliber.


Newsflash: you can match bullets to the exact rifle that fired them

how weird that his leg is sitting under an AR on a bipod...Okay ima set my leg right here take this here .38 and blow my brains out


simple explanation, maybe?

He was firing that AR, no hearing protection at all? He is extremely disoriented with a massive pounding headache and ear splitting hearing problems, pulls the gun on top of himself while he sits down while fumbling for the .38 then kills himself?

Has it been theorized yet that this guy got his initial investment $ from his daddy's "trust fund"?




No, but I think he got into smuggling with his dads contacts. FBI fou d out and started using him instead of arresting him.

So far, debunking the ISIS setup/gunrunning setup theory we have:

-Hammer found at the scene (presumably brought to breakout the windows that were.........broken out i.e. premeditated


Why couldn't the ISIS guy have brought a hammer? They knew what their plan was all along. After getting foiled in Texas, they are operating on the assumption they are being watched.

Therefore, the plan is to shoot the moment you get the guns, so you put the guns where a lot of people will be.

It really was a slip, not really a quote. But said the word radicalized and kind of fumbled around it like he didn't mean to use that word.

Something like "we want to know how he was radicalized, if he was...shite"

I guess they could have, but this seems like reaching to fit a narrative when taken with the other discounting facts

Here's what went down:

Paddock is an arms dealer. Has been for years He's got contacts in Asia and the ME. He's also in cahoots with the FBI. They use his arms deals to track terror cells and what not.

Paddock, who the terrorist think is radicalized, along with the FBI agree to set up this deal in Vegas so the terrorist can kill a bunch of Americans having a good time. Except the FBI is supposed to foil the plan before anything happens. Everyone looks good. People are pumped that the FBI is protecting them and politicians get to keep on with their war on terror/homeland security stuff. Everyone gets to show all the pictures of the arsenal and loaded weapons and talk about how much safer we are now.

But, the terrorist figure out what's up. Kill Paddock before the FBI can get there, and bust out the windows and shoot, kill and injure a bunch of people. They also fire a couple of hundred rounds down the hall to keep the FBI at bay and shoot Jesus in the leg on the way out.

Also, I'm completely talking out of my arse, but that's how I would've written the movie.

Biggest question to this theory is why bring the guns loaded to this suspected arms deal?

I think he more of a smuggler and launderer. Gun l, gurls, money, gold, etc.

And yes, I think the FBI/CIA has been using him for a while.
