It is without a doubt, our news cycle – in the age of 24/7 constant-connectedness – moves at a breakneck pace. With so much information and news reaching us, it’s easy to become overburdened and burned out on the world around us and the things taking place. It is true, too, that the mainstream media dictates what stays center in the mind of the public and what is allowed to fade away and be forgotten. It is of the utmost importance we remain aware – however exhaustive it may be – of stories that just don’t add up. On October 1, 64-year-old Stephen Paddock opened fire on a country music festival from the 32nd floor of the Mandalay Bay hotel, which overlooked the festival venue. Paddock’s onslaught left 58 dead and 546 injured. A full month later, and we are still without any answers. Even more worryingly, the Vegas shooting has disappeared from any cable news channel. Even online, discussion over the shooting has all but vanished, save from the more conspiratorial corners of the web. The official timeline of the Vegas shooting has changed three times. A week before the attack, Paddock wired $100,000 to an account in the Philippines. Paddock also took cruises to ports in the Middle East. Paddock’s laptop was also missing its hard drive when recovered in his hotel room. Despite a month of being told otherwise, it’s now been revealed that police did discharge fire in Paddock’s hotel room upon entry… but why, if Paddock had already killed himself before police breached the room? Jesus Campos is the security guard who first reportedly found Paddock as he started his killing spree, and was shot in the leg in the process. However, he not only disappeared after scheduling several television interviews, but it’s now been revealed Campos reportedly left the country just days after the Vegas shooting. Not only that, but Campos was said to have been last heard from when he went to a walk-in health clinic… but a spokesperson for UMC Quick Care – the facility Campos supposedly went to – said they had “heard nothing” about Campos visiting them. On top of all of that, Campos only re-emerged to do a fluff, softball interview on Ellen. DeGeneres guides Campos along the interview, essentially framing and explaining the timeline of events so Campos didn’t have to. At times, the interview even seems scripted. Don’t take my word for that, I implore you to watch and see if you agree: Plainly, things aren’t adding up with the Vegas shooting. Paddock was in an area with extremely heavy surveillance, yet no stills or video of him have been released to the public. No potential motive has been released. Really, no answers to any of the questions that arose in result of the story not adding up have been addressed… instead, the Vegas massacre has vanished from cable news channels and the public mind. Another note to add, in just the span of a month, 4 survivors of the Vegas shooting have died. Notably, both Kymberley Suchomel and Danny Contreras both publicly claimed there were multiple gunmen the night of the mass shooting. Dennis and Lorraine Carver died after their Mercedes smashed into a metal gate and exploded into flames. Per CNN: By the time their daughter heard the crash (which only happened about a half mile from the Carver’s home) and ran down the road to see what had happened, the car was engulfed in flames… Much like everything else pertaining to the Vegas shooting, the story just doesn’t make sense. Here we are, a month later – with exactly what we had immediately in the aftermath of the shooting: nothing. No answers, no coverage, no questions… nothing. Compare the massacre in Vegas to the terrorist attack that happened yesterday in New York. Within hours, we knew the name of the terrorist, had a picture of him, had his history as a refugee in the U.S. under a “diversity visa”, and had a note declaring allegiance to ISIS. We have timelines and what the terrorist was doing in the hours, days before the attack… The victims of the Las Vegas shooting – R.I.P. We owe it to the victims to not let this simply fade away. We owe it to their memory to ask why the narrative behind the shooting stinks. We owe it to their legacy to question and demand answers from our public representatives when discussion and coverage is being obviously stone-walled. Nary a peep has come from any legacy media concerning Vegas in the past month, and that alone should make you question what’s really going on. You don’t have to delve into conspiracy theories or hack-witted ideas of a hoax. Merely ask yourself… The worst mass-shooting in America yet and seemingly everyone has shrugged their shoulders, thrown up their hands, and declared indifference until the next one. Enter the Las Vegas shooting; the worst mass-shooting in U.S. history...
Here are the facts:
Why did authorities let Campos leave the country in the middle of an investigation? How did Campos travel unhindered with a gunshot wound in his leg?
All of us should be asking many questions – if only to ourselves – about why the narrative behind Vegas isn’t adding up…
…yet in the case of Stephen Paddock, nothing.
Where did the investigative coverage on the Vegas shooting go? Why did the story drop out of the news cycle with so many unanswered questions?

Because the false rumors working in sync with misleading hoaxes were untrue and thus shot lived....then no one could generate any real juicy conspiracy theories for the media to feed on so it ran its normal news cycle and petered out. Am I right?
Am I right? You're wrong. The Vegas event is being stonewalled by authorities for unknown reasons, an idiocy that is feeding conspiracy theorists. It ain't gonna 'Peter out', that you can bet on.
You're wrong As I posted previously, Gatlin cannot even discuss/ respond to everyday items he posts. He hides behind the bozo function like a little girl.
ACLU-shill Gilligan is ALWAYS wrong. I believe his streak is up to about 8 years. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Hmmm... The be honest, he seemed like an honorable guy, a patriot, and legit to me at first. I can't remember what the catalyst was in exposing his true intent at LP, but the wheels truly fell off during his involvement in "The Hack" along with the Admiral. Obviously, he does have a lot of knowledge of our airforces. What's puzzling, is how a creep like him could last long enough in the military to gain it. -- Must have been quite an actor, though he doesn't play one well here at LF.. He must have made a GREAT cup of coffee....or knew how to kiss up extremely well. You remember Major Burns from MASH? True, he's been an enigma. I'd like to know how ANY sane person actually endorse the ACLU or SPLC?? The years and life's events often change people. Unfortunately at times, for the worst. But like all the rest of us, even Gilligan can find the light and become repentant. Or "re-calibrated."
