Hubris

This is why I think some kind of escape had been planned, but something went wrong.

He doesn't seem to have been the sort to have a 'death wish' or to be desperate or resigned - for a long time, he seemed to have been perfectly satisfied to live what the average, healthy person would think a paltry emotional life; but was an ornery, mean (in the stingy, small-minded sense) self-important guy.

There was something going on with his life and connections that we've yet to learn about; I could be wrong, but don't think it was just insanity, or some kind of 'break'.

Most people in the Philippines are Catholic - I think it’s about 80 per-cent; so it’s likely.

He flew his own plane - usually three weeks out of four. But, since he was a white liberal elite - like Brennan and Clapper - maybe he was ignored.

Seems the investigation focused more on proving the monster wasn’t killing Trump supporters than looking at what happened. They ‘knew’ about the Blackstone BEFORE they knew the security guard was there before the shooting started? That’s telling.

That is my take too. The violence of the Shannon Watts antigun gangster crowd is known except in the mainstream sheeple “football is god” media listeners.

It is the messaging Mark Steyn talked about. This guy did everything to scrub about himself in his intention except thst one implicit message about guns. Many antigunners on facebook have mentioned fantasies of using guns to kill NRA people to make a point.

Using a bump stock to point and spray, such calculations are nonsensical.

Here's a demo of a bump fire stock:

The demo-er has a low opinion of bump fire stocks.

I a, foing there too because the prostitute sees him drinking, he has pics of him with a shot glass, but all of a sudden the hotel cannot figure why him and gf would not drink.

Interviewed by Chris Wallace, Steve Wynn drops what he knows about Paddock:

Since 2006, Paddock had been staying at Wynn hotels frequently. He seemed normal in every way. "The most vanilla profile one could possibly imagine." The only oddity Wynn's staff observed was that he and his girlfriend never imbibed.

Yet there are other reports of Paddock drinking heavily and of him smelling of alcohol.

A dumpy upper middle class white man with no criminal history or associations, flying his own plane and visiting the Middle East is enough for the CIA to keep a watch on people?

Just how big do you think the CIA is?

Forget that, what do you think the CIA does??? (Hint: it ain’t border control and it ain’t internal security)

Pure speculation. The note said, “I have information that will lead to the arrest of Hillary Clinton.”

Something I saw but put it on the my mind’s back shelf. He has an accident at one of the casinos, haven’t heard anything more about it’s resolution or if it caused any permanent injury.

He wasn’t on any painkillers, just valium.

He may have lost that case although it was caught on camera.

Maybe he held a grudge against the casinos and Las Vegas in general because he (in his mind) thought “dark forces” in the political system worked against him in his “iron clad” case
so he he decides to get even?

Just spit balling here.

He lost that case, and someone posted yesterday that he still owed court fees on it - which seemed odd to me, since the case appears to have been about four years ago.

I don’t know; there’s never any telling what really goes on in others’ minds, especially deranged ones. It’s all very strange, and as others have said we may never know the whole story.
