Las Vegas Massacre - The Great American Reset

I wonder if there is any significance to the choice of target... a country music concert...

Assuming he's a deep state-activated asset, perhaps the gun control effort is targeting presumably disillusioned Trump voters (I haven't checked Alex Jones or similar sites yet, but I'll bet this theory is making the rounds already). Fat chance of getting those people to part with their guns. They'll just bring them to the concerts.

Assuming he's a solitary nutjob, the demographic wouldn't appear to make sense. Seems like that German Wings pilot who committed the single most evil act I've heard of (a story largely buried by the US press because he apparently was f*cked up by prescription drugs) -- wants to commit suicide and decides to take 150 people with him just for the hell of it. Who knows how the mind of a psychopath works? I'll bet the CIA does.

Update: A country musician has come out for gun control "now." But I still don't think it will get much traction in this demographic.

I'll put you on ignore shortly, but I wish you the best of luck in life.

A rage-quit? Really?

I guess I should expect as much from someone so butthurt about the realities of marriage having smacked him across the face.....

[Man With a Plan]

I don't recall having ever been married. You're really unhinged, Contrarian. Smh.

Anyway, I heard something about him being a soldier who converted to Islam, but I'm going to wait and see how this unfolds before casting any nets. Everyone has traction to gain from this event, and it's important to remain balanced until facts come to light.

He turned the gun on himself. The police did not terminate him. Let's get our facts aligned before we type threads, okay?

I beg to differ. If the police storm an outpost to terminate a shooter, and that shooter ends his rampage and offs himself, it was still police action that directly gave rise to the "take out" regardless of who actually pulled the trigger. Perhaps you should follow your own advice.

Yes, the west has a high rate of mental illness and other interpersonal/intrapersonal issues per citizen (this forum being a prime example). Sadly, not everyone who looks to other nations will be able to successfully go abroad, and given that most members here are suspect future mass murderers, that notion is a bit disconcerting.

A bit of the pot calling the kettle black here, eh?

Though, I and others have tried to bring the dialogue back to focus on getting out of America/the west. That should be the primary discussion here, not the continual decay of western society. We know that already. If we all think that the west is backward and full of psychopaths, we need to come together and figure out how to leave it.

Many of the threads here are for the big boys. That being said, if you don't have the stomach or the intellect to partake, please stick to the threads for lightweights who cannot handle issues beyond their capacities.

This is why I've been iggin' him....kind of how Adama has been iggin' me for the last few years (although he began to throw palm trees/shade at me first which is what uncle tom's do). Man With A Plan is a typical Black American whom typically and myopically looks at me as an honorary Black dude just because I'm Brazilian American. Not everybody is his friend just because there are those of us that listen to R&B and/or have .0001% sub-Saharan African blood in them. MWAP's low IQ renders such thinking. No wonder mixed-with-sub-Saharan blood women can act like they are upstanding Black women and take over the Black American standard of beauty. Why can't these Black men just turn their "Blackdar" off and stop being so racist-conscious and at many times, so racist and colorist towards each other among others??!

Never accused you of being married. Please re-read that post, more slowly if it helps.

If you're going to shoot off at the mouth, at least have the decency to check your facts before you make a fool of yourself. Firstly, I'm not American. That should be obvious. Nor do you even know my race. That's already two strikes. Secondly, I don't "look at you" as anything because I don't even know who you are. You're irrelevant. This is what? The second time -- if that -- I'm talking to you? Thirdly, everything else from the IQ remark and on is word salad. Not worth acknowledging.

Looks like you're more of a "typical American" than you realise. Ironic, huh?

You're on to something E. I don't do well with Blacks while discussing cerebral or complicated matters. I find that the average low IQ is too much of a barrier to their understanding of novel concepts.

The top 10% are great, but MWAP is clearly not within that group when basic reading comprehension is a problem for him. Now I understand his desire to rage quit. It's like the student who throws up his notebook when math gets to difficult......

The event is a little weird, maybe, but I think people are looking too deeply into it. Sometimes people just want to cause misery and suffering. It's highly possible, given that we're talking about humans here.

Of course, maybe I'm wrong and you're right. After all, I'm not some delusional jackass who assumes that everyone who disagrees with them has low IQ or something. I'd like to see some of HA's sharper minds like Zambales, HouseMD and Chanta weigh in on this.

MWAP sounds like Yick to me.

Everybody is giving opinions too soon I think.

You really expect modern people to get facts before expressing an opinion? How optimistic.

Not at all. Conjecture about the cause of this incident is completely legitimate while the facts come to light in the coming days. Nothing wrong with that.

This just in:
https://www.nbcnews.com/storyline/las-v ... ed-n806471


The suspected gunman behind the Las Vegas massacre made several large gambling transactions in recent weeks, according to multiple senior law enforcement officials and a casino executive.

On several occasions, Stephen Paddock gambled more than $10,000 per day — and in some cases more than than $20,000 and $30,000 a day — at Las Vegas casinos, according to an NBC News source who read the suspect's Multiple Currency Transaction Reports (CTR) and a casino gaming executive.

According to a U.S. statute, a CTR is a Treasury- and IRS-mandated report that casinos have to file when "each transaction in currency involving cash-in and cash-out of more than $10,000 in a gaming day."

As I mentioned in my response to Yohan, gambling is figuring prominently with this guy who on the surface had it all, but his demons led him to snap.

Gambling 5 figures on a daily basis is the road to ruin as the odds will always favor the house!

[MrPeabody]

Las Vegas is the anus of America. I have never seen more pathetic and unhealthy looking people than when visiting Las Vegas. He could have easily lost all his money in a flash, since he is a gambler. And then he decided to go out with a bang.

[Cornfed]

The whole thing is very strange. A lot of thought, trouble and practice seems to have gone into it. Not like some disgruntled boomer suddenly flipping out at all. The guy seemed to be fairly well off and have no particular grievance against society. Sure he had to settle for a gook girlfriend, but given that he was in his 60s, even that is an improvement over what the average white man his age would have either now or 100 years ago. Also, he selected the whitest and most middle American target possible. Something just doesn’t add up.

Look at all the verbal diarrhea in this thread within barely 24 hours, as if the authorities and media were honest all the time.
I'm not going as far as calling this a complete hoax, as Adama probably will eventually, but people do swallow the early "facts" whole, without even chewing.
