Does anybody know if anything has been said (or asked by reports) what...if anything, was found in the other adjoining room?

I.E. Any shell casings? Any weapons/mags?

If he really was alone...and he really wanted/needed to break out another window, wouldn't this make more sense instead of another window in the other room?

True, but he didn’t “nut up” and shoot into those venues. If he was simply off the rails, why not shoot before? Was this concert a specific target? If he was simply suicidal and want a grand body count and statement, why not go to Chicago and fire on Lollapalooza which had over 40,000 people in Grant Park and Obama’s daughter was there. Imagine the media coverage if she had been injured or God Forbid, killed. Just seems odd..

I see no other conclusion. He was an arms dealer that laundered his money through casinos. Eventually gave himself to islam through interactions with some of his customers. Converted several months ago and carried out this attack.

Probably, but that big post in the way might prevent him from getting a good swing at window.

Maybe this event was some type of loyalty test to Islam. He could have been promised much bigger international arms sales. And there is that Saudi Hotel just 3 floors above. Just my wag.

Indeed. Clearly didn't just snap.

"Was this concert a specific target?"

Pretty clear to me.

"If he was simply suicidal and want a grand body count and statement, why not go to Chicago and fire on Lollapalooza which had over 40,000 people in Grant Park"

Or worse yet, used his pilot training/experience and flew a plane full of gas canister's, bearings, etc. at the 22,000+ at the concert. At night, he could have cut the engines when he got close and simply plowed right into the unsuspecting mass of people. Would have been far more casualties.

That appears to be most logical motive. What about his internet use, and websites/twitter/facebook places that are Jihad? ISIS claimed he was recent convert, so why not pursue to see if true?

How about one of the other two windows right next to it?

This guy was supposed to be very smart, and judging by all the pre-planning, if he thought he needed a 2nd window smashed on that side of the building for any reason...one of those other windows in the same large room would make far more sense than in the other room next door.

He had to have known he didn't have unlimited time so having to go into the other room through the door would be costly in terms of time. Furthermore, he most likely didn't have the video set up in that other room to monitor the hallway.

The smashed out window in that other room next door just really doesn't add up.

“The smashed out window in that other room next door just really doesn’t add up”

Better line of site to the fuel tanks. However, that flies in the face of the planning you point out. Combined with his pilot background makes it very odd he bothered shooting at those kero tanks, but he did.

It does if his goal was to make people uncertain of the number of shooters or which direction to run. And that is exactly what happened. He booked the room. Obviously did not need it for himself. Note the food service cart was placed in front of that second rooms door. So it served a purpose.

yes. well, i’ve said all along that we should wait and see, the problem is that the authorities appear to be trying to cover this one up .. just like Obama always tried to cover up for any of his IslamoNazi invaders’ attacks like calling them “just a workplace incident” or “a lone shooter” or other rubbish

when there are multiple signals about IslamoNazi, Muslim connections....and where, as in Vegas, one of the Islamic murder gangs is INSISTING it carried out the attack.... over and over again ... then there’s plenty of smoke to indicate it may be one more Muslim attack on innocent Americans

again, we will see, but the signals are definitely there this time, too, we will see.......

There was mention of tannerite, which detonates from firearms round impact. If he taped some to the side of the kero tanks, it could explain it.

I’ve seen other stories that now say there was access to his room even after his car left. What if he did have help, and a key to this is the accomplice took the car loaded with explosives to an area near the tanks. That would be the dry run in the days leading up. However on the night it happened, his accomplice bailed. There was no car to shoot at to explode. Tried to just go ahead and take some shots at the tanks. Realized the gig was up and did as much damage as possible. My gosh my head is spinning with all this.
