Maybe he thought guns laws were too weak so he tried making a point by wasting 58 lives and injuring 550 in the hope of gun laws being changed.

A useless martyr.


What I find kind of amazing is the law authorities have been searching for days for a reason/motive for all this mayhem. The reason in my view is very evident...........................the guy was an Asshole and some assholes do that shit!

Or maybe he was schizophrenic like his father and killed for no reason other than that.

Two out of three ain't bad.

ter·ror·ism
ˈterəˌrizəm/
noun
noun: terrorism
the unlawful use of violence and intimidation, especially against civilians, in the pursuit of political aims.




But beyond the obvious, what does arguing such a point accomplish?




I would just shorten it down to any shit that scares people! :)

How would it be different if he bombed a clinic to stop abortion or torched bulldozers to save the planet from pipes?

Who is AL?



Would have happened in his teens to mid 20s.

The schizophrenic Yorkshire Ripper was in his 30s when he committed his serial murders.

It's a medical fact that schizophrenia can emerge at any age, whether you're 16 or 90.

You remind me of Mike Tyson.

He was quoted saying "They called me a rapist and a recluse. I'm not a recluse."

That's what people generally think of when they think terrorism.

But Blackleaf defends a rigid, patchwork definition when it suits him.


If this was a guy who happened to be Sikh, Muslim or Buddhist, he would be screaming terrorist at the top of his lungs.

Words usually do have rigid definitions.

The word "taradiddle" means "pretentious nonsense."

Baldrick once described the word "sea" as "big blue wobbly thing that mermaids live in".

Those words' meanings are rigid. You can't say: "You're just being pedantic about the word 'sea.' If I want to call that puddle a 'sea' then I can do, and it'll be a sea." They have one specific meaning, just like the word "terrorism."

The biggest mass shooting in (white) American history and why Republicans are now going to push to weaken regulation on gun silencers. The NRA’s terrorism and American’s disgusting relationship with guns and the Republicans disgusting gun policy.

During the October 8 airing of Meet the Press, Rep. Steve Scalise (R-LA) said the push to pass gun control for bump stocks is a push purposefully undertaken by Democrats to create a “slippery slope.”


Todd eventually shifted to bump stocks, describing the devices as accessories that turn a semiautomatic weapon “virtually into an automatic weapon.”

Scalise responded by saying he and most of his colleagues had no idea what a bump stock was prior to the Las Vegas attack. In light of that, he found it curious that members of Congress already “rush to judgment” and “have a bill written already” to enact gun control for bump stocks. He added, “Look, Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) already said she wants it to be a slippery slope; she doesn’t want it to stop at bump stocks. They want to go out and limit the rights of gun owners.”

That bump stock thing is a total diversion.

The FBI-Las Vegas police feud was discussed at the 4chan thread, which was soon closed down for new comments:

According to a source in the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department:: “The LVMPD knows the motive behind the attack, but the FBI will not allow us to release the motive because it implicates the FBI in illegal arms deals and supplying arms to ISIS terrorists within U.S. borders. Stephen Paddock was an undercover FBI agent who participated in multiple illegal arms deals in the Las Vegas area in a gun-running entrapment scheme similar to Fast and Furious. Paddock thought he was engaging in another routine arms transfer, but ISIS had learned about the entrapment scheme and Paddock’s true identity. They killed him and carried out the massacre, and then fled the scene.

“Everything is being kept under extreme wraps because 1) armed ISIS terrorists are still at large and 2) this is very embarrassing to the FBI and they don’t want their scheme to become public knowledge. . . . People within LVMP are disgusted and are pushing for this information to be released to the public.”

It wouldn't be the first time the FBI has created terrorism
