BREAKING: Las Vegas Active Shooter

[TheReal_ND]

Well far be it from me to blame mooslims when it's not dirty mooslims but short of that his shooting doesn't make any sense, if he was indeed the shooter. Not enough info is coming out about this so we may never know.

I don't understand why a botched sting would result in a mass shooting though. How would that work? Oops we killed the bell boy better shoot up a country music concert?

Oh they do it all the time, the Feds make a terrorist so they can catch him and then claim credit for it, but in order to get the win, they have to let it go far enough so that they have the patsy dead to rights, he needs to show up to do the deed, just saying he's gonna do it is not enough, they have to spring the trap when it is at the point of no return.

Would explain why it took SWAT nearly an hour to get to him. Not saying SWAT was in on it but there is an FBI office in Vegas.

Also lots of strange chatter on the scanner during the shooting. There were shootings all over the strip according to police on the radio that never gave their ID.

[Smitty-48]

Las Vegas SWAT's not going to be in on anything, the Feds never let the local cops into the loop, often because the Feds plan is so sketchy, there's a very good chance that local law enforcement would balk and call bullshit on the whole thing.

[TheReal_ND]

It certainly seems like they have no intention of letting LVPD in on the investigation either, based on these news conferences.

[Smitty-48]

If the Feds are taking over completely and keeping local law enforcement entirely out of the loop? Fishy.

Who called the Feds? It's a shooting in LV which the LVPD responded too, why are the Feds even here?

Las Vegas resident shoots people in Las Vegas and the LVPD responds? How does that even become a federal case?

It's not over state lines, it's not narcotics related, there is no national security issue in view, what business is it of the Feds at all?

[TheReal_ND]

Well especially since they ruled out Islamic terrorism almost immediately. If I had to guess a reason for them being there it would be because of the wire transfers though.

[Smitty-48]

If it was Islamic terrorists, then the Feds would be all over that like white on rice, but as such, they would never try to cover up the Islamic terrorism angle, they'd be autistic screeching that from the rooftops.

[Smitty-48]

If I had to guess a reason for them being there it would be because of the wire transfers though.

Well, perhaps a parallel investigation, but that doesn't give them a mandate to throw everbody else out of the room and hold the cards to their vest, would be no reason to do that, just let the LVPD do their jobs, and the Feds can do theirs, the Feds taking over completely; no cause for that, even if it was islamic terrorists actually, there really is no justification at all, for the LVPD not to be the lead agency.

[TheReal_ND]

I'm not saying they have taken over but that is the general sentiment I've seen expressed. I'm not following this one too closely tbh. It's been making my head hurt. Normally I'm pretty good at filtering out all the noise and shills but the spergs and disinfo guys have out done themselves this time.

They are still involved though. Hell, the FBI was standing right behind the sheriff at the presser.
