That’s my hunch, big league anti-Trump leftist, and now the media is freaking and attempting to make this all about the evil gun as they kick up the dust of diversion and distraction.

That’s what my almost 75 years young husband says, not feeling old at all...AND...”not letting the old man out!”

Shooter was 300+ ft up (32nd floor) and 400+ meters away, reportedly. Handguns were useless unless you could get to his room, which no one in the concert crowd had any prayer of doing.

“...Then how did he get the rifle? Girlfriend?...”

Apparently, he had way more than one and verrrrry expensive weaponry. So....who, or what entity, has the most to gain from this?
Either provided by ISIS thru the girlfriend and smuggled up thru Mexico....or, our own beloved UniParty. NOTHING would surprise me about either entity in something like this.

Not exactly. Yes there were civilians but the real action occurred in the tower, with only 1 civilian who was given a firearm by the officers he met.

As far as comparing this to UT? No thanks. The tower is a very confined, specific target, in the daylight.

This incident was at night with large hotels looming everywhere. Who could possibly tell where to fire, much less successfully do so upward to such a height?

CC dude could be in the hotel just as easy as he could be on the street.

The country music festival had prohibited guns from being at the event.

even if the cops at the music venue had rifles, they are at a tremendous disadvantage due to elevation — caliber is the least of your problems.

The trick is to get someone on the 32nd floor.

Another example is the University of Texas Tower shooter int he 60’s. Same scenario, but the police actually fielded rifles which were useless against the sniper until they got someone in the tower...

By the way, the shooter wasn’t killed. He committed suicide.

If this turns out to be another lefty shooter, will any American vote democrat on November 6, 2018?

So this morning, all over FREEP, it was the woman and her husband and some relationship to the shooter...what is the story? What is the relationship?

I am not buying the recent Islam conversion story.

I am not buying a white supremacist shooting up a country concert...no.

What is the relationship with these people and why did I hear the woman and the other man are not involved?

Last part of your post:

Marilou was married to far left extremist Geary Danley (fan of moveon.org, dailykos, Al Franken, etc on his facebook), then divorced him and married another far left extremist, who was the shooter, Stephen C Paddock.

How much would 500lbs of ammo and all those guns cost? Could he afford the cost or would he need to be funded?

You can see the shooter’s girlfriend standing on a beach in Dubai, with the characteristic Dubai landmark in the background:

“White supremacist tat?”

Pot tat. M is the 13th letter. Hell’s Angels used to wear it.

They need to give out more information.

Like does he have a middle name or initial? When did he move into Mesquite to retire? Where did he live before? What were his jobs and career(s)?

Brother we are told was from Florida. Found a Stephen G. Paddock about the right age in Florida in an arrest record. oooi
