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.

Enter the Las Vegas shooting; the worst mass-shooting in U.S. history...

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.

Here are the facts:

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.

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?

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:

The couple’s youngest daughter, 16-year-old Madison Carver, told the Las Vegas Review-Journal that she heard the crash from her bedroom. When she ran outside and down the street to find out what had happened, she recognized her family’s vehicle in flames.

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.

All of us should be asking many questions – if only to ourselves – about why the narrative behind Vegas isn’t adding up…

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…

…yet in the case of Stephen Paddock, nothing.

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…

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?

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.

Are these people being silenced to stop the truth coming out?

John Beilman, who was wanted by federal agents following the discovery of a communications device in the hotel room of the officially identified shooter Stephen Paddock, killed both himself and his disabled daughter in an apparent murder-suicide

Chad Nishimura, the Mandalay Bay valet who parked Stephen Paddock’s car, went missing in the days following the shooting, after giving an interview to a Hawaiian mainstream outlet KITV4 in which he contradicted the official narrative, and pointed out that Paddock “didn’t have many bags.” Certainly not enough to cart 27 semi-automatic weapons, thousands of rounds and modifications up to the room.

Whether this series of disturbing deaths and disappearances are purely coincidental or whether there is something deeply sinister afoot has yet to be determined, but the response by law enforcement and mainstream media – in particular their refusal to address the questions that the informed public want answered – is leading many to arrive at the same conclusion.

There is a major cover up underway.

How would Chad know how many bags he had. Did he work 24/7 and never sleep and only watched Paddock?

If you dig into the original reporting, he just said that he didn't recall Paddock having a lot of bags. "Didn't recall" doesn't mean squat.

He never said he really recalled Paddock at all. He did mention that lots of people come in with boxes and equipment cases and lots of luggage, because they have a lot of convention events at the hotel. So people lugging in lots of stuff isn't unusual for the Mandalay.

As I recall, Paddock had a van, not a car as this outlet was reporting.

There are also the reports of Paddock getting permission to use the hotel's freight elevator.

Title: Why Has The Las Vegas Massacre Disappeared From The News Cycle?

After a month, it is old news. The same happened with the Newtown shooting, the Boston marathon bombing, the Aurora theater massacre.

It isn't sinister that news stories about Vegas are drying up. It's typical.

Uhhh,because it's old news and the shooter is dead?

Do I win anything for stating the obvious?

Ah,HAH! I suspect there is a conspiracy afoot!

Because it's been a month and it's no longer "news"?

Not to worry. The conspiracy theorists will keep it alive for years and years.

Yes, isn't it amazing how the Authoritahs can selectively pull out and tell us the type of toilet paper we used this morning, the names and photos of the 19 hijackers on 911 IMMEDIATELY, but are flabbergasted over the Vegas Case and come up empty?

And conspicuously, the MSM is incurious and bored...and dropping interest. ALL interest. As YouTube and Twitter filter and censor chatter, shared theories, and shared information. Hmmm...

The current Paddock Patsy fairy tale isn't working. The Timeline doesn't work; No one can corroborate Paddock as a "guest." NOTHING about it is truthful. There IS NO real investigation," folks.

The PTB are obviously trying to bury it.

Biggest slaughter in US history, Investigators have come up empty and fed us te "Paddock Fairy Tale and Single-Shooter narrative, and the MSM is yawning already??

Imagine the media feeding frenzy STILL going one had a Christian shot up an abortion clinic. And killed JUST ONE PERSON! AND the frenzy in Congress.

This Vegas Operation and follow up should remain headlines until we get:

* DAILY updates with degree of progress WITH PROOF on WHO actually planned the slaughter

* The REAL number of conspirators

* Unmasking the REAL participants and reason for the Operation

* A REAL investigation into the slaughter instead of this bogus crap

* A REAL investigation into the bogus Investigators.

* And finally, a resolution and actual justice.

Too many unexplained events, Ops, and High Crimes in High Places are being enabled. WITH IMPUNITY.

Between Bammy, The Hitlery, Lynch, Holder, Lerner, Podesta, Babblermouth-Schultz, Comey, Mueller, etal., how many consecutive life-sentence should be pronounced?? Why are these people allowed immunity from the law??

(Of course there are a couple posters/propagandists-Disinfo Specialists here who believe ONLY "Kooks" believe "justice IS served," there is STILL "Nothing to see," and if you do, you're a "CTer.") JUST ASK THEM.

I've been asking them for years.

Misterwhite couldn't defend himself and is currently hiding as a bozo. --- Gatlin too? -- Tooconservative tries to use wordsmith tactics against criticism, to my amusement.

They fool no one....

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?

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.

Yes,yes,and yes.

There was nothing superhuman about what he did. Practically any that is mobile could do the same.

As I posted previously, Gatlin cannot even discuss/ respond to everyday items he posts.

He hides behind the bozo function like a little girl.

Are you kidding??

You believe just ONE guy brought down this entire highly logistically planned Turkey Shoot? As well as buying this investigation as remotely legit? As well as the fingering of Paddock?

Just...Wow.

That gif sez it all.

They'd yawn and blame a mushroom cloud on the horizon on "the weather." OR, "Climate Research." Or "kooks."

The only issues that impassion the statists are "CT!!", LE Guilt, and the possibility that Authoritahs and their narratives *might* be wrong.

When gat first surfaced (wow,eight years ago!) I pegged him for a phony, so you're right.

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..

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."

Duhhhh! You yourself called it a Turkey Shoot. Ray Charles could have shot as many people in that length of time with automatic weapons,given how packed in they were and the fact that the shooter had altitude.

Yes, but you've totally discounted the logistics, motivation, and ENABLING.
