Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire LV shooter had planned to do Lolapalooza in Chicago

I've stayed at the Hilton Chicago which overlooks the park where Lalapalooza is held. I was able to watch one stage with a crowd probably half the size of what was at Las Vegas. I can't imagine thinking you should shoot up a room and into a crowd and have an exit strategy.

To set the narrative in motion.

I do not claim to be an expert but it appears to me much of this is fake news. Law enforcement is under a lot of pressure to produce results quickly. I suspect they are grabbing at threads and ascribing motives. Perhaps they have more evidence, but perhaps they do not. Until then all that is known is that he stayed in various places and made reservations to stay in others. He also left some stuff is his car. Big deal. Maybe he forgot he had it, maybe he decided he did not need it, or maybe he though he might get away. No one has any idea about what he was thinking.

The one thing that I have heard very little about is how he got his money. He owned two airplanes, residential houses, and spent a lot of time at casinos and liked to gamble. He portrayed himself as a successful gambler and supposedly played slots and video poker. That does not make sense. While people may have good days and big scores, no one wins consistently at either slots or video poker. So where did he get his money? Did he really make some great investments? Perhaps he was involved money laundering or some other illegal activity. That more than anything else may give insight into his mind.

Or he did that on purpose to make it look like it wasn't political.

I saw it reported that he won $5 million gambling in 2015. He may have been a little smarter than you think.

Okay, you're entitled to react to that. My negro fatigue is showing a lot lately. As much as I don't want to go into Chicago, I can at least remember when most of it was safe. Now most of it is not safe due to out of control black urban criminal culture.



But... If there is a conspiracy. Finding out Obama's kid was going to be in the crowd would be a good reason not to do the shooting at that event.

Is it absurd to think this could have been a conspiracy? I don't think so. Is it absurd to think that Fast and Furious was a conspiracy with no motive or purpose other than to propel more gun control, without regard for loss of life?

As inconsistencies keep mounting, it get's easier and easier to think this could have been a conspiracy.

Gambling wins are based on sheer luck not skill, unless he was able to able 'know for sure' what card the dealer
will draw next.....lol..........how do you think casinos make so much money?

Show your ignorance...

how do you know what the craps die will roll next, or where the roulette ball will stop?

even the casino doesn't know that ....When they accept a patrons bet they are also effectively gambling
..in their business model favor is the house edge, table limits and the houses massive capital back-up of chips.
The maths model is specifically designed to win for casinos not patrons.

ANYone who thinks gambling patrons guessing efforts in a game of chance that result in a win, is a skill,
then they should get to a casino now to make their life fortune.

You give a professional gambler 5000 and you or me 5000 and over a course of time, you and I will be broke whereas the pro will play a lot longer with a much higher chance of coming out on top. The casinos make money on guys like you and I. They hate the good pro's. Counting cards is not illegal in Nevada, but a casino thinks you are doing it, they kick you out. There are ways to make the odds near even, and that's what the pro's do.

I don't have the skill or patience to be a pro, but I know a few who are and they live quite comfortably. One at sports, the other is a cards guy. Like I said, it's not in most peoples skill set to be able to calculate percentages on the spot, and stay cool while doing it and thus turning it to your advantage, but to say it is impossible is just an uneducated statement.
