They said he fired through the door before the SWAT went in.
I imply nothing... but there is a sizeable muzzy population in the PI...
If it said ALLAH AKBAR you will NEVER hear of that note again..EVER
Anitfa or Islam?
My first thought was Antifa, but it’s not adding up for me. The hard core Antifa types are flat out Commies, they commit violence but seem to want to still be around for the “Revolution”. This guy had no plan for escape.
Islam. I was reluctant here since it’s difficult to imagine a 60yo white American converting to Islam to this extent. But this motive is looking more likely than AntiFA.
In either case, the FBI and DHS are/will be extremely reluctant to disclose the full motive to the public. In the case of Islam they are afraid of Muslim backlash and potentially unleashing that. But I suspect they are even more fearful of a backlash if he were found to be associated or motivated by AntiFA.
With Islam, the enemy is mostly overseas. With AntiFA? The enemy might be your neighbor.
The FBI and DHS have been warned repeatedly under the Obama administration that so-called White nationalists or Right-Wing groups represent a greater threat in America than ISIS.
The Government will want to “Manage the Motive”, when released, in order to minimize what they perceive to be any backlash or retaliation.
Ok, haven’t heard that. I guess that’s possible. But remember, ISIS is claiming responsibility, and those claims are usually true. And the Sheriff mentioned the word “radicalization”. I tend to agree with that, although I am not aware of ISIS ever having paid money for any terrorist acts.
1. No prayer rug in room.
2. He did not shave his head prior to committing homicidal/suicidal acts.
A new perspective on her, thanks.
Read this another poster linked to
Was it a abusive relationship or what ?
Did She run off
Thank you! I re-watched that; interesting and very troubling at the same time.
Interesting information if accurate - this and the info about him taking pictures of the shootings make it appear that the whole outrage is related to his own internal long-time demons and not some cause or external event like big gambling losses - will be interesting to see how it plays out.....
Ok, thanks, hadn’t heard that.
I am starting to suspect that the authorities know a lot more than we credit them with and that they have been lulling his possible confederates into not leaving the US or other countries on the false belief that they are not under suspicion. Otherwise, I find it extremely hard to understand this slob’s MOTIVE. First degree murder generally requires a showing of malice aforethought - planning, not acting under duress or emotion, intending to commit the act - all evident with this swine. Clearly he planned this, but WHY? Just to kill masses of people he didn’t know? He didn’t like country music? Hardly.
1. Copycat effect. He has seen all the attention mass murderers get, was feeling suicidal, and planned to break all the records. Well documented. Lots of examples. Adam Lanza a good one.
2. Islamic convert. Spent a lot of time overseas, like Asian women. Did he have an Islamic family in the Philippines? Lots of “lone wolf” jihadis. Orlando shooter a good example.
3. Hated Donald Trump with a passion, and was willing to end it all with a way to kill Trump supporters and cause the Donald a huge problem with his support for the Second Amendment. Republican Baseball shooter an example.
I think Fitzy_888 meant the victims funerals not the piece of human debris.
Phillipines is 92% Christian 5.57% Muslim
So, what happened there? Seems like bullets were fired through that door, not the other, BEFORE the door was breached (knocked off it’s hinges).
Weird...?
Well documented already:

Yeah, where’s the middle name? Is that really him?
The girlfriend, who was probably a catch for him, could have insisted on his conversion to Islam. The Philippines is 11 percent Muslim and they are a particularly virolent strain at that.
Thanks for the correction /Sac
What in Las Vegas could possibly drive someone to despair and insanity ??? Hmmmm ..... we will never know .....
Because many of the domestic terrorist attacks we’ve seen have been from known wolves who were reported by co-workers/friends/neighbors/family, interviewed and cut loose (sometimes on more than one occasion) until they eventually strike.
