I thought it was interesting how on a few occasions, he went to gunshops/smiths for maintenance then another time to get his guns cleaned. pg 162 is an example. If he was such a big "gun nut" why would he take his stuff to get cleaned? Just kinda stood out to me.

Interesting how they describe the rate of fire for the guns with bump stocks. In Rules Of Examinations it states: "Item 2... ...In addition, when using the SFS bump stock placed in the engaged position, the Item 2 rifle was able to produce rapid semi-automatic fire."

Quoted: I would say that can be commonplace with witness statements in a high-profile event. If you talk to career investigators, they will tell you some doozies they've had to deal with over the years just on smaller incidents. A saw XYZ B saw YZX C saw "Oh lawd, they was bunnies and aliens coming out his back, and I said, sweet lord have mercy!" D saw a red car racing away. E saw an old man on a moped with an inverted hairpiece. You get the idea. View Quote |

View Quote When I worked for a gunsmith, most of the folks that would come in asking specifically for a cleaning were not shooters. Though any firearm we received got a good cleaning before we did any repair work. |

What a shit show of an investigation. You know they are hiding things. They made people wait a year to say. We learned nothing. Complete mystery.

I want to know why the dude shooting from the 4th ish floor that was caught on video by that cab driver hasn’t been mentioned. She uploaded it the day after the shooting and it correlated with a bunch of reports of angles of fire and multiple muzzle flashes from different areas.

Why the hell does someone planning a mass murder and suicide send a fucking rifle in for repair. Im more convinced now that he planned to sell the weapons to a terror group. He ordered a variety of ammo instead of one brand which is odd. Also noticed the FBI doesnt enter revolver cartridges into the computer identification database .

We get attacked by a terrorist using guerrilla warfare tactics and liberals solution is for us to disarm ourselves.
Yeah, ok. No, and fuck you very much. |

Also why are certain places and names of people deemed "classified"?

I have always suspected his girlfriend was ISIS in the philippenes (sp) I see he was sending himself emails and probably giving the log in to other people.

Terms people may be unfamiliar with - ORION: Operational Response and Investigative Online Network SECRET/NOFORN: Secret, no foreign nationals can see this That story about Paddock approaching guys at a shooting range and offering to sell them full auto converted AR15s and AKs is very suspicious. Who meets strangers at a range and offers to sell them illegally converted AR15s and AKs? Only thing I can think of is an ATF informant trying to work off his plea deal or an agent. Of all the years and various States where I've gone to ranges to shoot, I've never been approached in such a manner. Very odd... View Quote |

Except for that one time a neighbor described my subject as a 6-fingered accordian playing dwarf....with a twin brother who was also a 6-fingered accordian playing dwarf. Turns out the witness was correct on all counts. I was sure he was batshit crazy. View Quote |

Wasn't Paddock's house mysteriously burglarized right after the shooting?

Quoted: Im curious what was on the computer they found That had to of had some shit on it At the very least his google searches the past few months should reveal something about the guy View Quote His brother was busted a few days after the shooting for kiddie porn as well.

So the rumor he didnt use bump stocks is true? The FBI or ATF said he didnt accidentally illegal full auto fire would play well in the media...? Whatever happened to the girl friend and child sex trafficking/pornography ring first reported? |

Sort of we know what you’ve done and who you sometimes interact with. We know about your brother. We know about your travels to gamble. Help us with this (whatever that is) and we. An ignore the kiddie porn and keep your brother out of jail. Don’t want to end up like your dad right? |

As to the revolver brass not being entered into the computer I can only speculate they have a way to examine brass extrication marks and dents to ID weapons involved in crimes as well as the firing pin now. Very interesting .

I think it's safe to say that no one is going to release anything truly damaging in a FOIA request, if doing so would implicate the federal government in planning or abetting an act of mass domestic terrorism.

@NoloContendere Any idea where the other casings were logged into evidence? I am guessing a lot more fell outside the hotel room. I saw a small amount were recovered in the room. Was this handled by a different agency? View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:
