The shooter is heavier than the pink shirt guy. Face is different. Not the same guy.

That carpet in the suite is the worst ever. That would make me lose it.

prediction: the political outcome of all this is that bump fire after market mods get heavily restricted or "banned"

not that he couldn't have modded it himself with some tools and come close to the same performance, but that's going to be the sacrificial lamb

It really is the most toxic invention of my lifetime. I can't believe I used to be on Facebook, but been FB free for 3 years now.

You people need to step away from 4chan.

Go watch the videos for yourself. They're on YouTube and Twitter. The video this still is taken from and the two others with that dude is in show him with the lady on his right in the hat.

Hahaha. Very well put.

Actually you are right, because its easy to make an important distinction. The Internet's ability to bring the world together and bridge communication gaps is unparalleled. But we had that in the 1990's. Social media is not necessary to all the good the Internet brought, and the phone culture actually has brought more good than bad, so the two are different.

I also think frankly the loss of separation between what an adult has access to and a child does is the whole point. Teens on down should not have access to most of it, but that's just own take.

It's definitely not him. I don't see why people think they resemble each other at all.

I don't think so either, but the left is really hoping it's not him. Blows their narrative. If it is him, you won't see that image displayed much by them.

So is he in any of the demonstrations pictures or videos, and is he on the Leftist side? That part is not clear in the `rebuttals' about 4chan above? At the moment just interested in learning if was an activist.

Absolutely, they're swimming on billions. He'll probably teach his kids to stay away from Facebook and social media, just as Steve Jobs wouldn't let his children play on these high tech toys. Let this stuff rot the brains of other peoples' kids.

One thing - the shooter was said to love to wear unassuming cotton cargo shorts and a t. That's exactly what the dude in the pink shirt is wearing.

What's a bump stock?
A replacement stock for a semi-automatic weapon that due to the recoil of the rifle causes you finger to engage the trigger after every shot to effectively make a semi-auto rifle shoot like a full auto rifle.

So - we're assuming his buddy - the guy in the pink Nasa shirt is a liberal activist? Which probably means he leans that way as well.

Psychopath father. Seemingly mostly a loner. Seems to fit a decent profile for a mass killer, as many haven't necessarily had reasons we can fathom. One of the areas I'm most curious about right now is what is his medical history.
I bet he was on some heavy meds...psychotropic. When will anyone in the media have the courage to investigate these meds?

Who plays high stakes video poker?


I've won over $4,500 in video poker over the years. Bet big win big. Of course you have to be willing to lose some along the way.

They cause essentially medical frontal lobotomy. Impulse/action/delusion/tangent control. So would dampen urge to perform heinous acts actually.

edit - I assume you are referring to Haldol, Geodon ,Abilify etc.

I'm interested in whether there was also some sort of recent illness diagnosis, maybe terminal.

"Professional gambler" is what shady people use to hide their real source of income. Red flag.

How did this guy actually build his wealth to where he didn't need to be employed? When was he last employed, 1988 is the date I heard... that is 28 years ago, so he hasn't been employed since his 30s?

If he is a real estate investor you'd think we'd know something by now about his business. Did he have an LLC? Property managers? Lenders he did deals with? How were properties advertised and sold? Seems like he doesn't operate any real business or we'd have heard about these things by now I think.

I don't think he acquired his airplanes and homes with income made playing video poker or gambling. If the casinos were losing money on this guy he would be persona non grata and blacklisted.

What happened to the money his father stole from banks? FBIs ten most wanted father. Father taught him how to escape authorities when he was a kid. It's what he knew.

Guy is an accountant doing audits of all things for a major defense company... you know what comes to mind... money laundering.

Everything about this guy is more like a fictional crime boss out of a movie than your typical retired accountant.

- Psychopath bank robbing father
- Accountant specializes in audits (has knowledge necessary to launder money and cook books)
- Gambling as a source of wealth (shady bogus cover as source of wealth)
- Multiple airplanes and homes
- No public front (social media or business front)
- No identified business associates....?
- Foreign girlfriend...

I don't know if it's him or not, but I'm not sure why folks are focusing on "oh it looks like he's with some random woman". I'm not a political protestor, but I know in crowds I'll talk to people around me that I don't know. That doesn't mean anything.

Those of you that called the bump stock early on....
Nice job! That's what I come to this site for. If you want to know what's up and can weed through the liberal BS you can learn it here first.
Absolutely correct.

So if some of the posts are right about that, what will it be with some of the Philippines hints? Besides, two day rule (at minimum) is still in force.

There are high stakes in this being pitched a certain way, so rather eager to see what if any clues turn up `outside' the press narrative. Things like whether the victims have different kind of bullets pulled from them and other forensic clues. And sorry, any rumor of Islamic conversion or sympathy if it holds up is more than enough if it is real. But so far that part is looking bogus.


This picture is really really strange to me.


You are right about some high stakes something going on in this mans life.
So shooter has both girlfriend and his lady friend in the same picture. And then theres the friend who really looks like the protester...i find this bizarre.

Interesting take. You have some interesting points. If he really was a multimillionaire through real estate one would think there would be some serious real estate investments that would come out.

Also to your point, I am not a gambler but I thought it was common practice for the gaming industry to blacklist anyone that consistently made serious money off of them. Is that true, or is that just BS I have read somewhere? Any of you whales know about this?

The Washington Post piece said the shooter loved Country music.

But he shot at hundreds of people attending a country music festival. This also seems bizarre. Who told the WP that he loved country music? Is it true or meant to make him seem like a right wing fanatic?

It seems pretty hard to believe that he would go after the same people he has much affinity with. He had houses across the South and West (Florida, Texas, Utah, Nevada). He loved country music...so he goes and shoots hundreds of his people as his last act. Has anyone talked to the Texas neighbors?

Bizarre.

Do Jason Aldean and Big & Rich really qualify as "country music"?

Maybe he was trying to purge country music from their corrupting influence?

I think we have a motive!

I'll be shocked if this guy built his wealth legally... if he had a legit business we'd have heard of it by now. Business associates would have been identified. He did financial audits, he has the ideal background to launder money and who knows what he learned from his dad escaping authorities. Gambling is not an income source as casinos would blacklist him if they lost money on him. Everything about this guy is shady. Girlfriends from the Philippines too?

The authorities investigating this are being very tight lipped. I wonder what they've found. Maybe they are following a rabbit hole to a larger criminal ring?

Anyway, even if this dude was a shady character and criminal like his father it still doesn't explain the desire to commit mass murder in the way that he did.
