The delicious irony in this case is paddock appears not to have any political ideology whatsoever. He appears to not have voted in 2016 2012 or 2008. There are conflicting reports about whether he registered in 2004 as democrat or republican - but no confirmation he voted even then.

In the word of his brother he had "No strong religious or political positions he was "just a guy". Meaning the notion the guy was a political activist or suffering from TDS is absurd.

He is like 60-80 percent of this country who is not a slave to political infotainment and likely went to his grave never having ever heard of "identity politics". You all hope to someday be as blissfully free of political nonsense as he was.

You said it was a certainty that he was ISIS

Proof that Dan is a liar

Dan8267 says

If at this point you still think it's ISIS behind the shooting, you're a fucking idiot.

LOL, except every expert disagrees with you.

Dan8267 says

The probability that he was anti-Trump is either 100% or 0% and nothing in between.

Proof beyond a shadow of a doubt that Dan doesn't understand statistics

Dan8267 says

Don't go accusing others of identity politics to cover up your despicable identity politics.

I'm looking at the only facts available, whereas you are denying any possibility of ISIS radicalization. Admit there is a legit chance he was radicalized, ya know, because there is MORE than a zero % chance that ISIS's claim is accurate.

Dan proving he both doesn't understand English and thinks in black/white terms. According to psychologists, this is a mental flaw that most people outgrow by the age of 4

Meanwhile, it just came out that the shooter initiated his attack after the security guard checked a nearby room.

So Campos didn't make the Shooter panic by knocking on his door - the previous theory - it made him initiate it sooner. Which is why Paddock didn't fully use all his equipment in haste.

Honey, you made the claim "ISIS is responsible for the Las Vegas shooting" out to be the only plausible explanation. Every person on the planet knows that claiming certainty about an empirical statement does not mean the same thing as it being mathematically impossible for the empirical statement to be false. It means that it is unreasonable to consider the statement to be false.

For example, we are all certain that we don't live in a VR simulator ran by a computer in a giant space hamster's ass. Can we prove that we're not all simulations inside an alien computer inside the ass of a giant space hamster? Of course not. Such a possibility would be logically and empirically consistent. Nonetheless, we say that we are certain we don't live in a hamster's ass. You were making such a claim. Now that it's becoming obvious that the shooter had nothing to do with ISIS or the left, you are trying to back out of that claim, but you are not doing so honestly.

You tried to make the entire left look guilty by association, but honey, this guy stinks of the right wing. He's a rich, old white man with a gambling problem and an arsenal of guns. The only way he could get more right-wing is if he fucked his sister, his wife left him, he lost his dog, and his pickup truck broke down and he wrote a country song about it.

You are also proof that the conservative right is not one bit different from the conservative left in any way that matters. Both are tribal, dishonest, hateful, and stupid. As more information comes out about the shooter, it will become more apparent just how much your tribe sucks and what fucking hypocrites all you alt+right propagandists are. You spread maliciousness rumors in the hopes that even after the rumors are discredited, the negative feelings you generated about the competing tribes will linger. There is not an honest bone in your body, and you do the country a great disservice by spreading lies to further your identity politics.

I'm a liberal. I've never voted for an R or D, only libertarians

Dan8267 says

Honey, you made the claim "ISIS is responsible for the Las Vegas shooting" out to be the only plausible explanation.

Bzzzt. Wrong. I stated it is a legit theory w a chance greater than zero. It is most likely far greater than zero given ISIS history of relative accuracy of their claims.

Dan8267 says

Honey,

Why are you communicating like an IHOP waitress? Dan, bro, you have issues.

You are clearly not a liberal, and although libertarians pay lip service to liberty, in practice few libertarians are actually liberals. Case example, the Koch brothers.

First of all, it's not a theory. It's a conjecture. Second, what the fuck is the difference between a "legit" conjecture and an "illegitimate" conjecture? All conjectures turn out to be either correct or incorrect. One could easily conjecture that the shooter was a closeted alt+right supporter who was making a statement that real men use guns. One could also conjecture that the shooter wanted to prevent the next Hitler from rising to power, so he killed lots of people at a casino because he believed the parents of that future Hitler was there and he was going to retroactively abort the conceived child terminator style. There is no more reason to buy your conjecture than either of these two or an infinite number of other conjectures.

What you did was claim to have compelling evidence when you actually had no evidence, compelling or otherwise. You submitted rumor and innuendo as evidence, and they are not. Once more, you have only furthered spreading baseless rumors and needless divisiveness. You actions are no different than any of the brainwashed alt+right persons who blamed the shooting on innocent people and on ISIS just to make a political gain.

ISIS is plenty evil. You don't have to resort to distorting the facts to make the case that ISIS should be ended even using considerable lethal violence.

It is rather astounding that someone could live to mid 60's and this (not these altered ones, the original) is the best photo the media could find for what seemed like a couple days. I get not everyone has facebook, etc, but seriously? I'm not going down conspiracy theory rabbit holes, but it does seem weird.

I think he looks quite stunning in the third photograph.

"Hardcore Gambler" is usually a cover for a con man or other crook. That way you don't have to explain where you get the money from, especially large amounts of cash.

This guy had his dad live in his head, he had to do better than his dad in criminality (was richer) and finally in ruined lives (sniper nest).

Fox is probably right on that one, even though they are all just sticking to team politics

Yet again, the experts disagree w you. So, w zero research, you claim to know more than people who study extremism. You are choosing your own illusion.

Piggy, are you still jealous of my car? Just because your poor and homeless doesn't mean the rest of us can't enjoy life.
