On the night of October 1, 2017, a gunman opens fire on a crowd attending the final night of a country music festival in Las Vegas, killing 58 people and injuring more than 800. Although the shooting only lasted 10 minutes, the death and injury tolls made this massacre the deadliest mass shooting in U.S. history at the time of the attack.
Stephen Paddock, a 64-year-old retired man who lived in Mesquite, Nevada, targeted the crowd of concert-goers on the Las Vegas strip from the 32 floor of the Mandalay Bay hotel. He had checked into the hotel several days before the massacre.
Paddock began firing at the crowd at 10:05 p.m. using an arsenal of 23 guns, 12 of which were upgraded with bump stocks, a tool used to fire semi-automatic guns in rapid succession. Within the 10-minute period, he was able to fire more than 1,100 rounds of ammunition.
An open-door alert sent hotel security guard Jesus Campos to investigate the 32 floor at the start of the shooting. After arriving on the floor via the stairs, Campos couldn’t get past a barricade blocking the entrance so he used the elevator instead. While walking through the hall, he heard a drilling sound coming from Paddock’s room and was shot in the leg, through the door.
Once authorities were alerted, they arrived at Paddock’s suite at 10:17 p.m. and didn’t breach for nearly another hour at 11:20 p.m. Paddock was found dead by a self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head. His motives remain unknown.
In addition to the arsenal of weaponry found in Paddock’s hotel room, a note calculating how to attack the crowd based on trajectory and distance was also found. Authorities concluded that Paddock had no connections with terrorist groups such as ISIS and that his planned attack was carried out without accomplices.
The deadly shooting horrified the country and sparked debate over gun control legislation once again, with gun-control advocates claiming that Paddock’s use of bump stocks led to increased causalities. In response, some states banned bump stocks.

Paddock was a patsy. The FBI shot up that concert. There is a video showing their helicopter blasting away. There was also a second broken window near Paddocks room from which more shooting was done. Helicopters have a very specific flight path allowed in the Vegas airspace. The helicopter doing the shooting was completely out of the allowed flight path for helicopters in Vegas.
Here is one such video that covers this false flag event for those that have a little time over the weekend.
THIS DAY IN HISTORY – A Gunman ALLEDGEDLY opened fire on Las Vegas concert crowd, ALLEGEDLY wounding hundreds and killing 58 – 2017
WHO TOLD YOU? THE LYING MEDIA
WHO BENEFITTED? THE.LYING MEDIA AND THEIR DOT GOV HANDLERS.
Another cee eye aye false flag operation to usher in the nwo
Many witness accounts come together to explain it was a failed assassination attempt on the Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia who was to meet with Trump. When it failed the perps shot up the concert as a distraction. Running gun battles occurred down the Strip with hundreds of witnesses. All perfectly suppressed by our Federales. The Prince managed to escape and fly out. So sad the horror the concert goers had to survive. This was the JFK cover up of our era. It never ends, eh?
I………love it!
Great third cover story.
Or real story.
How the hell would I ever know?
Rhett? or Rick?
I used to believe that our Government was different. Grandpa Albert was right. I wasn’t all that bright.
And the Las Vegas police Chief moves to Maui to become the Police Chief there. I wonder where he’ll pop up next…
If there’s any justice left in the world, the morgue.
Thank you. Not what I meant but better.
You didn’t know?
Some guy named Grog For-us? or something has 30 qualified voodoo witchdoctors all putting curses on this guy, the entire island of Maui AND Las Vegas.
Why?
Because someone “shoved” him [he pushed into someone who protested] in Vegas and the cop didn’t do anything.
Then, some locals in the Haina were rude to his privileged rude son [called out his son for being a drunk asshole in their bar]
So, he paid a team to shoot up Vegas.
Oh, and he hired a professional team to go kneecap the infrastructure of Haina and torch it.
He said something like “We’ll bring these savages to heel if we have to burn them all!”
/satire/
“A” gunman. ROFLMFAO!
