Once they gave him a middle name, the narrative had been approved and committed to “history”, sealed by a few people, some who had to fall on their swords, saying Trump supporters were there and deserved this.

Forget all about Marilou and the crowd warners, just like Tim McVeigh’s handler/other accomplice.

And of course forget all about the NFL “controversy”.

Since he was a big gambler, wonder if he was “comped” the hotel room he used.


You can bet he was a lot of times.

“HOW DID HE GET PAST EVERYONE WITH ALL THE AMMO AND WEAPONS IN THE HOTEL??????”

Most likely he broke down all of the long guns into their parts to enable him to fit the long guns into suitcases, backpacks and other inconspicuous containers.

One way to attempt to prevent that is to set up TSA type screening at the entrance to all hotels and casinos.

I don’t have an answer other than to return to diagnosing and institutionalizing mentally ill persons.

Plenty of video in a casino. It'll take some time to put some logic to all this...My gut still says somehow connected to Fast & Furious.

Nobody has said...Is he a registered voter. I think the silence tells us he was....even though his brother said no political affiliation. And his brother would know how??

“I’m very surprised that this guy did not blow himself and part of the hotel up when he committed suicide.”

Suicide is certainly the narrative, isn’t it? Why believe it?

Have you stayed in Vegas Casino hotels? They are huge. Check in is usually 1/2 mike from the elevators to your particular tower. Usually several different banks of elevators per Casino hotel. You usually have to roll your bags directly through the Casino floor. You could check in, start using multiple entrances and roll suitcases in all day.

Gambling $10,000 a day? Yikes! I haven't gambled one-tenth of that in my entire life!

A very,*very* serious head case or a very,*very* serious piece of excrement.

He had been checked into the suite for three days. At various times he could go to the garage and get a golf bag or large suitcase and come up the elevator to his room. He could separate the moves by hours to not arouse a second look.

I have a hard case golf bag for airline travel. It would easily hold four such weapons and it has wheels at one end and a handle at the other — easy peasy. I have a similar case for my wife.

Daily Mail front page says the girlfriend/companion/partner is in Tokyo. There doesn’t seem to be much interest in her. Excuse me, but when did she leave the country, and why? Prior knowledge? It seems to me she is implicated big time just by the circumstances.

Exactly, he passed all the checks and that’s why they want these guns banned completely.

I find it odd that almost nothing “new” about this attack has been released by local or federal authorities in the last 18+ hours.

And just how many suitcases did he have there? 20? If these firearms were assembled when he was found dead, they may have been just laying around for days. Wouldn’t room service think something was up?

I know, lots of questions with no answers.

Agree, has she been found?

I read initial reports that she was in custody but not sure if she was released. If in Japan, then she was.

I’m betting the key will be found by a good competent forensic accountant and no-one else. Mom probably has whatever fiction she wants to believe about this guy in a death grip and has for many years.

It’s not that hard, unless you try to do it all at once.
