If it were wins though??

And he was versed in guns to the point where he could plan this in weeks (the relationship likely crumbled over months if not years).

but it happens every day and people don't decide they want to take out hundreds of people before they off themselves.

that he wanted to inflict maximum damage while testing out his beloved armory.

The hotels in Vegas (source: have lived there) have police everywhere. He knew he couldn't just start shooting up a casino floor because he'd be downed in 30 seconds. This gave him 10 minutes of absolute depravity.

He thought it through, which is becoming clear, that's for sure.

Gambling losses could trigger this nowadays. The responsible, law-abiding gun owner is really a myth.

and unnecessary. A lot of people own guns, and very few use them irresponsibly.

There's a certain subset of gun owners who are pretty much making the long term survival of unregulated gun ownership as a concept completely untenable - and I'm fine with that - but your average person with a rifle isn't really the issue.

to the problem, directly or indirectly. Add carrying on city streets, supporting white wing organizations like NRA, GOP, 3%ers, etc., and they are the issue.

So gambling with tens of thousands isn't such a big deal if you aren't going to need the money.

The concert was a three day event correct?

Workers had gone into the room over the past few days and saw nothing amiss, so he might have brought the weapons in during the day yesterday from the parking garage below the hotel.

Is that he evidently had a lot of assets, multiple homes, airplanes... Is a loss of tens of thousands really that triggering in that context? I mean possibly, but what would be helpful to know is whether he was really a good gambler, or if he was getting all the money from another source.

I mean these days I'm getting a bit

Maybe to the point where he knew he was going bankrupt unless he could pull out a gambling miracle.

Every account he had should be frozen immediately. Everything he owned should go towards compensation. No amount will be enough but hopefully there will be something for the people he harmed and their families.

He obviously knew what he was going to do. I wonder if he did any legal work to transfer stuff into other people's names before doing this. If so, could a judge declare it a false transfer, even if it was before the massacre?

just in case. We can't put a price on safety.

Also we must profile accountants and people who play $100 a hand poker

He worked for Lockheed Martin as an accountant. That doesn't get you as rich as he got. He also played primarily slots and video poker, again that isn't the typical route for making lots of money, unless you know how to exploit the machines, which is certainly a possibility.

so an increase in wealth without explanation is a red flag that someone doing clearance work is up to something.

My point was mainly a joke about punishing rich bastards like the dude in my signature pics

Had not considered that but it seems like something that needs to be ruled out.

Stories keep saying this. I wonder if they mean with her ID as well as his ID. Otherwise, I don't see how you can book a room with someone else's ID and, presumably, pay with a credit card in that other person's name.

No idea if she checked in with him, though.

I would say that he has had recent losses in the tens of thousands and when he checked into the room on Thursday that it was all or nothing.He was trying to win his money back and lost everything.

He had this planned out and if he would have won,life would have went on as usual for him and everyone else.

He lost and he snapped in my opinion.

But the house always wins eventually.

owned rental property, this isn't about money I don't think.

You can't beat the casinos. That is why it's called gaming and not gambling in Nevada. It's the law. he must have made some money somewhere, but you aren't going to make a living off of a csino unless you have a way of cheating they haven't discovered yet.

Cumulatively, the casino always wins.

"It was not immediately clear if those transactions were losses or wins. "

but your point stands, it's far more likely that the large gambling was a final hail mary and that the attack was his twisted way of not facing his losses.

a bunch of subhumans proclaiming that the shooting is a government plot and will likely start tracking down and threatening survivors and proclaim that the victims never existed. They did it after Sandy Hook and Pulse. Hell, they're still doing it.
And all who call them out are accused of trying to enforce "political correctness"

I've seen a few of them tentatively pushing the false flag line already. Hours ago, actually.

I hope these degenerates lose family members in future events like this. Younger the better.

Call it hateful all you want but the only way conspiracy-servatives learn is if it happens to THEM. Really gives them perspective when all their "enlightened" anti-government friends start calling them government patsies and start reading their every post-funeral facial tic for "proof" that they're in on some plot and that their family members didn't exist.
