There were also a couple of other updates on the investigation in that article:  “Facts are stubborn things; and whatever may be our wishes, our inclinations, or the dictates of our passions, they cannot alter the state of facts and evidence.” - John Adams | |||

Trigonometry to be precise.  Yep, I had the same flash back........did not understand a damn thing the High School Teacher said. Later, while in the military, I was taking college classes on base and finally got it from a Math and Physics Instructor who knew he had a bunch of grunts in the class, so he used weapons, bullets, and bombs in all his examples while teaching. Found out at the end of the class, he was a recovering Marine (no such thing as ex Marine) who had been a Sniper during his time in.  | |||

All this week, we've been told repeatedly that Las Vegas has cameras everywhere, and that would include cameras in the lobby of that hotel, in the elevators and in all the hallways. What's the big mystery? They have a time stamp for the key card use. Go look at the camera footage from that hallway at that time, or is all this stuff about "cameras everywhere" nothing but a lie? | |||

I am with you on this para. Its all click bait to get you to read thier article. Clicks drive revenue. The police know so either theres a loose end theyre trying to tie up i.e. additional person or he did it on his own or it is what it seems and they are making sure not to miss anything. Why its taking so long is more of the mystery. What man is a man that does not make the world better. -Balian of Ibelin Only boring people get bored. - Ruth Burke | |||

Maybe they bought their camera system from Costco, where that customer was shot dead a couple of years back with not so much of a frame of video. Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me. When you had the votes, we did things your way. Now, we have the votes and you will be doing things our way.

Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." - Justice Janice Rogers Brown | |||

There was a report yesterday that Paddock was seen with another woman, who was not his girlfriend during his last stay at Mandalay. I was thinking it was probably a Vegas call girl.. | |||

No, you have to think like a conspiracy theorist. The last thing the second person would be, is a hooker. No, we have to weave an elaborate story about this person. Let's call her "Tanya". She was born in Chechnya but spent years as a freedom fighter in the middle east. After the death of her husband at the hands of the Russian army, Tanya fled to the United States- Las Vegas specifically, because she was given a good lead on where to buy a bump stock. | |||

While we are at it, on the 32nd floor of a modern American hotel, smoke wouldn"t set off a fire alarm, it would have set off the fire suppression systems. Somebody pulled an alarm. ----------------------------------------------------------- TCB all the time... | |||

The story is from NBCNews and the source is officials, who are not named. Why should we put any credence in such stories? Why not regard these as ‘fake news’ unless the facts are attributed to named sources? No more hiding behind sources who prefer to remain anonymous.

Really? So someone smoking in his room is going to set off the suppression system? Anyway, I think people in the adjoining rooms frantically calling the front desk and 911 to alert them that a maniac was firing off what sounds like automatic gunfire in the room next door tipped them off where he might be more so than the fire alarms, or at least they helped confirm that. ~Alan Acta Non Verba NRA Life Member (Patron) God, Family, Guns, Country Men will fight and die to protect women... because women protect everything else. ~Andrew Klavan | |||

All the rooms I've stayed in had a temperature sensitive frangilbe glass ampule to initiate the water flow. Causing hundreds of thousands in water damage because a smoke alarm in *one* room was activated would be rather dumb don't you think? -------- After the game, the King and the pawn go into the same box. | |||

Does the hotel have a camera in the hallway or not? Everyone that entered that hotel room should be accounted for at all times. There should be no mystery about having help in the hotel. In fact, they should know excactly how he got the guns and ammo in there. Aren’t there cameras at every entrance? Oh wait.. let me guess, someone hacked into the camera system and erased the footage or they substituted something at key moments. It’s all coming together now.

Live press conference happening now and someone from the FBI just stepped in to speak and said they've partnered with Clear Channel to plaster "If you know something, say something" all over city billboards along with the number: 1-800-CALLFBI It's apparent now that these guys aren't finding ANYTHING and are now desperate and scrambling. _______________ Mind. Over. Matter. | |||

Just so we're clear. Smoke doesn't set off fire suppression. Heat does. Lots of it. | |||

https://www.amazon.com/Applied...2K7F1YAJA5XY3V2HA845 If anyone really cares about the whole line of sight range high angle shooting problem. Great book for long range shooters. It will be of no use to shooters who never leave a square range, or who are not interested in the subject, and it is a little dry, but it is a treat to the long range nerd. Especially his listing of observed BC's, they are worth the price of the book alone. Now back to the tin foil hats. | |||

What about all the movies and TV shows where the hero uses a BIC to set off the sprinklers on an entire floor or building. Are you telling me that shit is not real? | |||

Since when is 15° high angle shooting? Yes there are compensations for shooting high angle but they are not required for 15 degrees on man sized targets at 300 to 450 yards. Every ballistics calculator I've played with is saying there'd be about 3" of aiming low to compensate. ___________________________________________________ But then of course I might be a 13 year old girl who reads alot of gun magazines, so feel free to disregard anything I post. | |||
