Las Vegas: Worst Mass Shooting in US History

I think this shooting will haunt this country - more than most.

And not just because of the number of people killed.

The false flag and conspiracy people jumped all over this one immediately. There are tons of videos and articles out there now. It's crazy how fast they write this stuff up before the reported facts of the case are even released.

As with most conspiracy theories, it's more about the notion that nothing is knowable, there are no facts, everything is an illusion.

It was interesting seeing just how quickly and based on so little these theories sprang to life.

9/11 was a conspiracy, it is not a conspiracy theory.

Then comport yourself with some degree of decency and reasonableness. Easy as that.

Agreed. A big reason is the sheer amount of material available on social media. My daughter's friend got a hold of video taken in the middle of the field during the shooting, it shows someone shot in the head, someone else with blood pouring from a neck wound or something. It was truly gruesome. They posted it on facebook for all of her other teenage friends to view (I think it has since been taken down since we cannot find it now, maybe it is on wikileaks or something idk). She showed us and we asked her how much of this has been in her feed and she said it was all over the place. Everyone has access to see the pain and suffering caused damn near in real time, and in excruciating detail. I do not believe that recording and replaying ad nauseum these kinds of events is healthy. It will breed obsession. It will make the influence much stronger than if it has occurred in an era where you had to read about it in your local paper rather than watch hours and hours of it at the click of a mouse.

True - which is to be expected. But I think this is the part that will drive people nuts: here you got a guy who was born with 2 strikes against him, bounced around from job to job for a little while until he found something he was good at, busted his *** and got rich. He lived a life in his golden years that most folks would be envious of - and yet he did this and no one can figure out why. No drugs, no mental history, no indication of violence in his past - nothing. It's almost like this act was an indictment of the American Dream; which makes it doubly offensive to our sensibilities.

I wonder if it was rooted in boredom. Idle hands and all that.

Tell me you believe an airplane hit the Pentagon. 9/11 doesn't add up at all.

People aren't just eager to wrap their heads in tin-foil and believe every conspiracy (I mean, some do, but not all.) There are a lot of conspiracy theories because there are many reasons to be skeptical and doubt the information given - JFK, the moon landing, 9/11, etc.

I have looked at the allegations that a plane did not hit the Pentagon. I've had long conversations about it with people who believe it wasn't a plane. Their evidence is not impressive. The convoluted reason to pretend a plane hit the pentagon when it was not a plane, the whole conspiracy story doesn't make any sense.

These conspiracy theories have been debunked. You believe in them because you want to believe in them, not because there is substantial consistent evidence to support them, not because there is a more logical explanation. I'm so tired of listening to people spew nonsense. It is old, really, really old.

Lol
 
I don't want to get into the ever-shifting, ever-adapting arguments in favor of the conspiracy theories, but I'll say this.

4 aircraft took off and never landed. These aircraft were full of real people, all of whom have families, co-workers, friends, acquaintances. All of whom purchased tickets went through airport security and boarded their aircraft. These aircraft were staffed by real pilots, stewards/stewardesses. They were assisted by real luggage handlers, air-traffic controllers, etc. These were normal flights that flew the same route every day. Had there been no such flights that day someone would have noticed, someone would have asked why.

There would literally have to be several thousand people who know something didn't happen that should have happened, and several thousand who would know that something happened that should not have happened. People who couldn't all possibly have an interest in keeping secret the truth.

Those planes took off. One hit WTC 1, one hit WTC 2, one hit the Pentagon and another crashed into a field. The magnitude of faking those flights is so incredibly enormous as to be completely inconceivable. The only way to believe those flights were not real is to create a fantasy in which they are not real and then convince yourself that fantasy is reality. That's exactly what way too many people have done.

It is absolutely ****ing sad. I'm so done with the madness of it.
