Breaking now ...
Police in Las Vegas are responding to reports of an active shooter near the Mandalay Bay Hotel.
At least one gunman is reported to have opened fire at a country music festival being held on the Las Vegas strip.
Videos on social media show hundreds of people fleeing from the scene. The sound of what appears to be automatic gunfire can be heard in some clips.
Las Vegas police have advised people to avoid the area. There are unconfirmed reports of multiple casualties.
http://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-41466116
Officials at the University Medical Center in Las Vegas told ABC News that it had at least 20 victims with gunshot wounds right now, with the expected to grow. The hospital did not provide information on the victims' conditions.

You can hear the rapid fire in this video.
Shooters(?) were shooting from on high according to witnesses.
One girl was seen to be shot in the head.
At least two dead being reported right now.

20+ dead now, with off-duty LEOs among the dead. :banghead:
Reports say one shooter is now dead, and at least one LEO on duty is in critical condition.
-
Police are saying that the shooter is dead, and there's a female accomplice/companion/roommate that LEOs are looking for. Supposedly an automatic weapon was used. Jason Aldean was on stage at the time.
-
The shooter was on the 32nd floor of the Mandalay Bay hotel. His "roommate" has been named as Marilou Danley, described as Asian, 4'11" and 111 pounds. Her age is not being released. LEOs are actively looking for her.
-
Two off-duty LEOs are among the dead. :banghead: :(
There's a Muslim scholar (Dr. Qanta Ahmed) on Fox News right now that is saying that this has the echoes of the shooting at the Arianda Grande concert in London, and even the Bataclan shooting in Paris.
-
Marilou Danley is Filipino, they are saying she is Asian. Funny that they are not releasing the name of the deceased shooter yet.

Just did--Stephen Paddock, age 64.
Hearing one of the videos of the shooting, the thing had to be belt-fed. Or . . . Haven't there been (quietly) reported thefts of weapons from various National Guard armories across the country? IIRC, there were a few thefts during the last Administration . . .
ETA: The LEOs in the area are saying that they have located Marilou Danley.

LV shooter Identified and rumors that he was a convert to islam
http://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/236219
The gunman responsible for a deadly shooting attack at a country music festival in Las Vegas has been identified as 64-year-old Stephen Paddock, a resident of Mesquite, Nevada.
Police say Paddock had a criminal record, but no known ties to terrorism.
While initial reports claimed Paddock was a recent convert to Islam, Clark County Sherrif Joseph Lombardo said he had no knowledge of Paddock's religious beliefs.

NO MATTER WHAT WEAPON WAS USED, IT STILL WASN'T AS DEADLY AS A TRUCK. 86 killed, 500 wounded in Nice, France.
Whether it is a truck or a gun, it doesn't matter because they are just tools. :rant:

So, things I've read and heard this AM.
The shooter is "white" and fairly well off. He lived an hour and a half drive or so from Las Vegas. I've heard/read, variously, that he was found with 8, 10, or 10-or-more rifles. Add in accessories and ammunition, that's probably at least $10,000, if they were all just semi-automatic rifles. But ...
The morning drive show - level-headed hosts, not conspiracy-minded or smart-ass flakes - played audio from the shooting. I have no military or shooting range experience. That said, two things stood out to me (one of which a caller pointed out). First, the rate of fire sounded to me faster than what a person could do with a semi-automatic, especially while controlling their aim. Second, it sounded like at least two different guns, both probably automatic, based on the shots in the two separate extended bursts being of two different pitches.
IF some of his rifles were automatic rather than semi-automatic, those are hard to obtain legally, and very expensive. Converting semi- to full- is possible, but not trivial And not legal. And of course if they were obtained illegally, they were illegal. IF they were automatic: how and where did he get them; existing gun laws were violated but did not hinder him from carrying out this shooting.
The shooter checked into the hotel on the 28th, four days before the shooting. Among that, the number of guns, and being timed & placed to overlook a concert this was obviously carefully planned. Even carried in over that time, how in Hades did he get 10 rifles, accessories, and ammunition into the hotel unnoticed? How many lone individuals bring in that much large and heavy luggage and packages?
ISIS has claimed he had converted to Islam recently and was one of their "soldiers", but AFAIK there is no supporting evidence of this. His brother in FL, whose relationship was not very close, has said that the shooter was not particularly political or religious.
-
I heard some recordings of the shooting and it sounded like an extremely high rate of fire. More than a regular M16 or AK, also it sounded like the bursts were more than a 30 rounfd mag. It is possible he used 100 round drums , they are available for both guns. It also could have been a belt fed gun. It could have been a semi auto with one of the bump fire stocks, and not a full auto, as the bump fire stocks have a really high rate of fire, as fast as or faster than a regular full auto.
What ever he used it will have the anti's heads exploding for more gun control.
This is a sad day for America.

CBS fires vice president who said Vegas victims didn't deserve sympathy because country music fans 'often are Republican'
http://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/2017/10/02/top-cbs-lawyer-no-sympathy-for-vegas-vics-probably-republicans.html
CBS has parted ways with one of the company’s top lawyers after she said she is “not even sympathetic” to victims of the Las Vegas shooting because “country music fans often are Republican,” when discussing the tragic mass shooting that occurred in Las Vegas late Sunday night.
Monday night she issued a statement of apology.
“This individual, who was with us for approximately one year, violated the standards of our company and is no longer an employee of CBS. Her views as expressed on social media are deeply unacceptable to all of us at CBS. Our hearts go out to the victims in Las Vegas and their families,” a CBS spokeswoman told Fox News.

Fox News, via Tucker Carlson, is now saying that this scumbag had 16 rifles in his room. An M249 is a shoulder-fired weapon with a bipod. It might have been misidentified.

Stephen Paddock's father was a convicted bank robber, on FBI 'Most Wanted' list
http://www.orlandosentinel.com/news/crime/os-stephen-paddock-father-wanted-fbi-20171002-story.html
The father of Stephen Paddock — the gunman accused of killing dozens of people at a country music concert in Las Vegas — was a convicted bank robber and on the FBI’s “Most Wanted” list, according to the family.
Eric Paddock, who is Stephen Paddock’s brother and lives east of Orlando, told the New York Daily News that their father, Benjamin, was arrested in a 1960 bank robbery in Arizona. He made off with several thousand dollars.
Benjamin Hoskins Paddock escaped from prison in the late 1960s, according to the Arizona Republic. He was added to the FBI’s list of Ten Most Wanted Fugitives and described as “psychopathic'” with suicidal tendencies. He was captured nearly a decade later while managing a bingo parlor and using an assumed name.
The apple does not fall far from the tree.

http://www.express.co.uk/news/world/861252/Las-Vegas-shooting-latest-news-Mandalay-Bay-Route-91-Marilou-Danley
A LAS VEGAS shooting witness was reportedly warned that everyone at the Route 91 music festival was “going to die” 45 minutes before the attack near the Mandalay Bay hotel.
More than 50 people were killed and over 200 more injured after the Las Vegas shooting, according to Las Vegas police.
Chilling video has emerged showing the moment gunshots ring out during the busy music festival, cutting short Jason Aldean’s appearance as the packed out audience escaped the shooter in terror.

CNN Reporter: Country Music Fans Are Likely Trump Supporters
http://dailycaller.com/2017/10/02/cnn-reporter-country-music-fans-are-likely-trump-supporters-video/
CNN’s Jeff Zeleny inexplicably pointed out Monday after the Las Vegas shooting that many country music fans are likely Trump supporters.
Shortly after Trump delivered prepared remarks to provide solace to victims of the deadliest mass shooting in United States’ history, CNN asked Zeleny, a senior White House correspondent, to analyze the speech.
Typical from CNN. :mental:

Couple things I've learned. I've already seen pictures of Stephen Paddock from January 21st wearing his Pu**yhat. Also, did anyone notice that the CBS reporter used the term "repugs". I'm pretty sure the DUmp lost one member and has another that has more time on her hands to post.

Las Vegas shooting suspect's girlfriend is 'person of interest', says sheriff
https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2017/oct/03/las-vegas-shooting-girlfriend-marilou-danley-person-of-interest-sheriff
Las Vegas gunman Stephen Paddock’s girlfriend is “a person of interest” in the criminal investigation into America’s worst mass shooting, police said on Tuesday.
Sheriff Joseph Lombardo of Clark County said detectives are in contact with Marilou Danley, who was travelling in the Philippines at the time of the massacre and remains there. “The investigation with her is ongoing and we anticipate some further information from her shortly,” he told reporters. “Currently she is a person of interest.”
Lombardo declined to comment on an NBC news report that 64-year-old Paddock wired $100,000 to an account in the Philippines some time in the week before the attack.
This gets more interesting.

Las Vegas shooting: Stephen Paddock 'sent girlfriend abroad' before going on rampage
http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/stephen-paddock-vegas-shooting-girlfriend-marilou-danley-abroad-gunman-latest-a7982146.html
The Las Vegas gunman sent his girlfriend abroad so she could not interfere with his deadly rampage, it has been claimed.
Marilou Danley, 62, was in the Philippines for some weeks before Stephen Paddock carried out the mass murder of 59 people on the Las Vegas Strip.
In an interview with Australia's Channel 7 TV network, Ms Danley's sisters said they were surprised to learn she had travelled to the Philippines.
Now, Marilou Danley is being interviewed. More should come out.

16 Unanswered Questions About The Las Vegas Shooting That Mainstream Media Doesn't Want To Talk About
http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-10-04/16-unanswered-questions-about-las-vegas-shooting-mainstream-media-doesnt-want-talk-a
As you will see below, the evidence is mounting that there were multiple shooters and that this was an operation that was planned well in advance. But according to the mainstream media, a 64-year-old retired accountant with a flabby physique that had no military training whatsoever and that wasn’t very experienced with guns was able to pull the whole thing off all by himself. We are being told that Paddock was a “lone wolf” that didn’t have any ties to terror groups, and since he is now dead nobody is ever going to be able to interrogate him.
Somethings of interest.
#12 Why was ISIS so eager to take responsibility for this attack, and why was the FBI so quick to dismiss that connection?
#16 Why was a country music festival chosen as the target? Was the goal to kill as many Trump supporters and other conservatives as possible? And is there evidence that Stephen Paddock was connected to Antifa in any way?

Las Vegas shooting: Stephen Paddock 'spent decades hoarding guns and did NOT act alone'
http://www.express.co.uk/news/world/862496/Las-Vegas-shooter-motive-killer-mass-murderer-Stephen-Paddock-Marilou-Danley-FBI-gun
STEPHEN Paddock could have spent more than 20 years plotting his devastating attack on innocent people in Las Vegas, police have revealed.
Officials also believe Paddock may not have acted alone.
Sheriff Joseph Lombardo said: “At face value he had to have some help at some point and we want to ensure that that’s the answer.
I think Stephen Paddock had to have others involved.

Businesswoman's insensitive Facebook post following Las Vegas shooting brings death threats
http://www.pennlive.com/news/2017/10/insensitive_facebook_posts_fol.html
An ill-advised, insensitive Facebook post in the aftermath of the Las Vegas mass shooting has effectively ended the business of a vegan food truck. That same post has also brought hate-filled comments and death threats to the businesswoman and her son.
Delinda Jensen, owner of the Mother Nature Vegan Cuisine food truck, told the Times Leader of Wilkes-Barre she regretted her now deleted Facebook post, in which she wrote: "Yes I am jaded. Fifty nine meat eaters dead. How many animals will live because of this?"
Jensen later commented under the initial post with the following: "I don't give a (expletive) about carnists anymore."
Here is the vile post in question.

'Bump stock' rifle modifiers green-lighted by Obama administration
http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2017/10/05/bump-stock-rifle-modifiers-green-lighted-by-obama-administration.html
So-called 'bump stock' recoil devices like the ones used by the Las Vegas gunman, were first approved under the Obama administration's Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms.
In June, 2010, about 18 months into Obama’s first term, the ATF issued an opinion letter to stock manufacturer Slide Fire on the company's after-market device. The bureau gave the company approval, according to the Media Research Center.
“The stock has no automatically functioning mechanical parts or springs and performs no automatic mechanical function when installed,” reads the letter dated June 7, 2010. “In order to use the installed device, the shooter must apply constant forward pressure with the non-shooting hand and constant rearward pressure with the shooting hand. Accordingly, we find that the “bump-stock” is a firearm part and is not regulated as a firearm under Gun Control Act or the National Firearms Act.”
Bump stocks approved by the Obama Administration.

Highland Park deli co-owner to leave family business after Vegas shooting tweet sparks outrage
http://www.chicagotribune.com/suburbs/highland-park/news/ct-hpn-deli-brother-gets-boot-over-las-vegas-tweet-tl-1012-20171005-story.html
Max's Deli in Highland Park has ousted co-owner Greg Morelli over a controversial tweet that was posted Monday after the mass shootings in Las Vegas.
Deli co-owner Joey Morelli released a statement Thursday saying his brother is no longer affiliated with Max’s Deli, which the two own with a cousin. They are the third generation of owners in the family-run business. He later said he plans to buy out his brother’s interest in the business as soon as possible.
"He is out, he has agreed to be out and he is gone," Joey Morelli said. "I love him, but he must move on with his life and address his issues."
Good riddance!

Las Vegas Plot Thickens: Stephen Paddock’s Plane Was Owned By Obama Administration Intelligence Contractor
https://politicalvelcraft.org/2017/10/05/las-vegas-plot-thickens-stephen-paddocks-plane-was-owned-by-obama-administration-intelligence-contractor/
A few internet sleuths have taken matters into their own hands after the obvious disinformation campaign by the mainstream media surrounding the Las Vegas shooting. Mounting evidence of what looks like a false flag is worrying many. And once you read this, those fears will be shoved into overdrive.
On the surface, the tweet doesn’t say much. But how much can Mike Toke really say in a limited amount of characters? But what he does manage is enough to get anyone seeking the truth to follow all these leads and look into everything that the media and our government continues to hide from us. It’s what’s embedded in the tweet that counts.
I know this is from a blog, so I cannot say how credible it is.

Why have no casino security videos or at least photos been released?
That's a good point . . .
Greg Ellifritz, on his Active Response Training blog ( http://www.activeresponsetraining.net ), shows how he, as a sworn LEO, carries a Glock 42 concealed into various concert venues. He also says that a Glock 42 is "minimally useful" in a shooting such as the 'Charlie Sierra' did in Vegas. There's not much that one can do with a .380 ACP at 200-plus yards against a sniper. That's not to say that one couldn't secure an escape route with one, IMO.

The Mandalay Bay security guard who disappeared last week moments before he was scheduled to break his silence in television interviews has not been seen since he went to a walk-in health clinic, his union president said.
David Hickey of the Security, Police, and Fire Professionals of America (SPFPA) told reporters Friday that he got a text the night before saying Jesus Campos was taken to a UMC Quick Care facility, though he did not specify where or whom the text came from.
A spokesperson at the UMC Quick Care, which has eight locations throughout the Las Vegas area, told Fox News on Monday that they had "heard nothing" about Campos visiting them.
This gets more interesting. I wonder why he just disappeared.

Is this why he did it?Vegas sheriff says Stephen Paddock lost large chunk of his wealth gambling and buying properties and thinks money woes may have pushed him over the edge
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-5047905/Vegas-sheriff-says-Stephen-Paddock-lost-ot-money.html
Las Vegas gunman Stephen Paddock had lost a large portion of his wealth over the last two years thanks to mounting gambling losses and real estate deals, which the local sheriff speculates might have driven him to violence.
In an interview with local news station KLAS Wednesday night, Clark County Sheriff Joe Lombardo said that Paddock, a millionaire property investor with a passion for high-stakes gambling on video poker machines, hit a rough patch in his finances beginning in September 2015.
'I think that might have a determining factor on what he determined to do,' Lombardo said.
So many questions.

Who knows. I think the FBI and Lombardo have really messed up the investigation.
Lombardo ran on a pro gun control platform to win the Sheriff's election (side note)

Las Vegas shooting Stephen Paddock Marilou Danley latest
https://www.metro.us/news/the-big-stories/las-vegas-shooting-stephen-paddock-marilou-danley-latest
It’s been over two months since the tragic Las Vegas shooting conducted by Stephen Paddock, who killed a reported 58 people and injured 546.
In this age of a non-stop news cycle, the deadliest mass shooting in the history of the United States is already ancient news. One interesting tidbit dropped Tuesday that has Las Vegas shooting conspiracy theorists going nuts right now is the stories about the hospitals that tended to the victims in the immediate aftermath of the shooting. One of the most popular conspiracy theories surrounding the Las Vegas shooting centers around how no one supposedly died from injury while at the hospital. The death tally and injury tally were already locked in hours after the shooting and did not rise.
This USA Today story speaks at length about how one of Vegas’ smaller hospitals ended up with hundreds more patients than the one best equipped to deal with such a horrible incident.
Las Vegas Massacre has not been in the news lately despite 58 people killed.
Columbine Massacre was in the news for months and for most of 1999. 13 people were killed.
So many unanswered questions.

WALSH: 58 People Were Killed In Las Vegas, We Still Don't Know Why Or How, And Nobody Cares
I am going to break the rules of the Internet Hot Take Industry and write about an old story that nobody cares about anymore. We have gone on to other topics, and then other topics, and then other topics, and other topics, etc. The news cycle moves at the speed of sound. Events from last week are a distant memory and news from October may as well have occurred during the Cretaceous Period.
Still, I can't help but recall, ever so faintly, that little thing known at the time as the worst mass shooting in American history. If memory serves, a wealthy 64-year-old gambler named Stephen Paddock murdered 58 people and injured hundreds from the window of his luxury hotel room. In the days after the slaughter, nobody could figure out why he did it, or how he managed to pull it off. So, we all kind of shrugged our shoulders and moved on. The questions were never answered.
It is now two months later and we know as much today as we knew six hours after the shooting. But nobody is talking about it anymore. It's as if it never happened.
There was a time when a mass shooting of this magnitude would dominate the news for weeks and weeks. Columbine — which paled in comparison to this — was the only thing anyone talked about for at least a month. Even more recent shootings — Charleston, Aurora, Orlando — were in the headlines for much longer than Las Vegas. Yet there were more people shot in Vegas than in Columbine, Charleston, Aurora, and Orlando combined. Twice as many, easily.
Well, I think.
I actually don't know how many people were shot. They tell us 527 people were injured, along with the 58 killed, but were all of those injuries from gunshots? Did the guy actually physically shoot 585 human beings? Or were some of the injuries from people getting knocked over and trampled in the melee? I would imagine the latter must be the case, but I don't know. It's been two months and we still don't even know how many people Paddock shot. Maybe that number is available somewhere but I couldn't find it. How is that possible? How could it be two months after the worst mass shooting in American history and we still don't have a precise and well-publicized casualty count?

Unparalleled upheaval: The LVMPD’s Sheriff Joe Lombardo
http://baltimorepostexaminer.com/unparalleled-upheaval-lvmpds-sheriff-joe-lombardo/2018/01/02
January 1, 2018 besides being the start of a new year, marks three months since the worst mass shooting in American history.
Fifty-eight people were murdered and over 500 others were wounded when a lone gunman — we are told — Stephen Paddock, opened fire from his 32nd floor suite of the Mandalay Bay Hotel on October 1, 2017.
Paddock fired over 1,100 rounds down onto an unsuspecting crowd at the Route 91 Music Festival, police said. Just to note, the collected evidence from Paddock’s suite should include all 1,100 plus expended cartridges. Firing pin indentations on the cartridge cases should match the weapons in the room that allegedly were used.
Long article, worth reading. So many unanswered questions.

Indictment in Las Vegas mass shooting is possible, authorities say
http://www.latimes.com/nation/la-na-vegas-shooting-indictment-20180116-story.html
Stephen Paddock was the only gunman spraying bullets on an outdoor music festival in Las Vegas last fall, but on Tuesday police said criminal charges could still be filed in the mass shooting that left 58 people dead.
The revelation came in district court as Nick Crosby, a lawyer representing the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department, argued to keep search warrants, affidavits and findings sealed as charges were being investigated. Police have said Paddock was the lone gunman in the Oct. 1 massacre.
Crosby said that because the investigation was ongoing, he couldn’t reveal who those charges might be aimed at or what they might entail.
Someone could be arrested in connection to the Las Vegas Massacre.

The result was 58 people dead and hundreds injured in the worst mass shooting in U.S. history.

Will criminal charges be filed in Las Vegas massacre?
http://baltimorepostexaminer.com/will-criminal-charges-filed-las-vegas-massacre/2018/01/16
LAS VEGAS — Clark County, Nevada, District Court Judge Elissa Cadish did not release any records Monday pertaining to the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department’s (LVMPD) investigation of the worst mass shooting in American history as requested by several local and national media outlets.
In a stunning statement to the court, attorney Nicholas Crosby representing the LVMPD told the court that criminal charges may be possible depending on the results of an ongoing investigation.
When the judge asked if there are potential charges against others as a result of the ongoing investigation, the attorney for the police responded, yes. He did not elaborate on any evidence or who may be charged.
Doug Poppa has been writing great articles about the Las Vegas Massacre. Questions that need to be answered.

Stylist: Man with Vegas gunman's name talked concert attack

LAS VEGAS (AP) -- A hairstylist said a client with the same last name as the Las Vegas shooter spoke in the months before the deadliest mass shooting in modern U.S. history about a concert venue being susceptible to attack, according to documents released by police Wednesday.
A 2,100 page report of the Las Vegas Massacre has been released.
Many unanswered questions.

In no picture that I saw, did it ever look like the Vegas shooter had ever saw a hair stylist.
From what I read of that report, it raised more questions than it answered. Much of it seemed like it was designed to give cover to the feds for botching their job and to give cover to TPTB.

'A stunt': Outrage builds over MGM Resorts' decision to sue victims of Las Vegas massacre
https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2018/07/17/mgm-resorts-sues-victims-las-vegas-massacre-denies-liability/791511002/
A lawsuit filed by MGM Resorts International, owner of the Las Vegas hotel from which Stephen Paddock fatally shot 58 people and wounded hundreds, is drawing outrage from survivors of the deadliest mass shooting in U.S. history.
The suit filed against hundreds of the victims of the rampage Oct. 1 outside the Mandalay Bay hotel claims the entertainment giant has "no liability of any kind."
MGM said in a statement the filing was meant to provide a "timely resolution" for shooting victims who sued or will sue in the aftermath of the attack during the Route 91 Harvest Festival. MGM said litigation filed against it "must be dismissed."
MGM has something to hide.

Without commenting on Mandalay Bay's potential liability, the longer any process is delayed or protracted (once begun) the more expensive it would be for Mandalay Bay to defend themselves. Delay is used as a tactic by deep-pocketed prosecutors and plaintiffs (and plaintiffs using deep-pocketed contingency-fee law firms). It's a tactic the "Speedy Trial" provision of the 6th Amendment was supposed to preclude, but abuse is rampant and pervasive.

I can see why they'd do it in an analytic way, rather than have a couple thousand-plus possible lawsuits circling around for two years before the filing deadline runs out. The optics of it are a disaster though.

Las Vegas shooting: Memorial events mark 1-year anniversary as massacre motive still shrouded in mystery
https://www.foxnews.com/us/las-vegas-shooting-memorial-events-mark-1-year-anniversary-as-massacre-motive-still-shrouded-in-mystery
One year ago today, something compelled Stephen Paddock to grab a gun and start firing out of his room at the Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino on the Las Vegas Strip, killing 58 people and wounding hundreds more in the deadliest mass shooting in modern American history.
Police investigating the shooting have released hundreds of photos and videos of the massacre, and eyewitnesses have come forward and to tell harrowing stories of survival – and recovery. Lives have been altered forever.
Yet a year since the shooting began, one thing remains a mystery – what pushed the 64-year-old Paddock to pull the trigger?
It has been one year since 58 people got massacred at Route 91 Harvest Festival.
So many unanswered questions.
