Las Vegas massacre

Post by skow69 »

What a horrible waste of life. What could possibly have happened to set that guy off?

There is something very wrong in our culture, and we need to figure it out soon, because it is getting worse.
Distilling at 110f and 75 torr.

I was worried about my sister - she lives there and likes country. Luckily she was not there. It was a horrible thing to see on TV, I can't imagine being there. :(

Two of my wife's friends were injured, one was hit in the back the other was hit in the leg. We are lucky that we didn't lose anybody we love.

Based on the current info,
It appears politics nor religion was a motive.
It was a horrible, massive murder, followed by a single suicide
Why :?:

Shady, I'm not going to go all conspiracy theory or political, but do not believe squat that the main stream media is putting out. The guys picture is on facebook in an antifa crowd holding a sign. There was a note left behind (it's in pictures of the room) and yet its never been reported. The DOJ has been after Trump for how many months trying to prove Russian ties but after 12 hr's declared this guy is a lone wolf, the shooter commits suicide so no answers can be asked......it doesn't add up.

If I was a millionaire like him with all the resources he had...shooting rifles from 500+ feet away from the crowd would not of been the avenue I'd choose. I would certainly have sent the media "the reason" and used resources to back my claim.

68 year old white guy who's never been in trouble with the law....yup, terrorist written all over that..... :roll:

Horrible planned and executed tragedy. I hope they find the real reason and it gets out so people know what the world is dealing with.
Prayers and condolences to all effected.

The last picture is a disgusting, heartbreaking picture of the scene which if seeing people down bothers you, you shouldn't click on. However, if you are sick of the people who are tearing up the USA because they lost an election and won't accept it and will do anything including kill because they're sad twisted individuals, then look and realise the USA is under attack.

Again, don't want to get political because its not allowed here, but it has to be said that it was confirmed this guy is the same political party as the one who shot House whip Steve Scalise.

Without getting into it too much. There is alot more to the story than being told. Things being said don't add up. Who was "he" live streaming to? Who did he send all that money to? People gave absolutes about what happened and what it wasn't before they even counted the firearms correctly. Which tells me straight out something is fishy. All we can do right now is sit and wait for more facts to come out.
