WTF?

Can never read too much into this - My facebook likes would be somewhat contradictory also.
Sometimes you have to 'like' a page in order to be able to comment.
Liking also gets the pages updates delivered to your newsfeed rather than have to actively look for them.

Steven Paddock 64 from Nevada. Reports he was a registered sex offender also.

For Forks Sake

To note, the FB profile being posted over the last few pages is NOT the person the Police have named: Las Vegas shooting suspect is 64-year-old Stephen Paddock, @PeteWilliamsNBC reports

Grayson

That guy lives in Arkansas. The shooter was a local.

Oh ffs. Give it a rest. When that right wing nut drove a car into the crowd were you whinging about him being called out as such? I bet you weren't.

Anyway, for what it's worth. ABC have just confirmed that the shooter was a 64-year-old white male. Not sure if that tallys with who this is rumoured to be:

Why somebody decided to murder dozens of people is important to know.

I said "going by his FB posts" and "going by" means 'appears' ffs!!

And again, I was talking about that particular guy, not every single person on the planet who is anti-Trump.

The point is, what does it matter? Are you saying that that was his motivation.

A few pages ago, he was a Muslim terrorist. Then he was an alt-right Trumpeteer. Then the possibility of him being a Republican who hated Trump was thanked many times.
Now, he's a loonie from the left and it's irrelevant.

And while he is a murdering c**t, he's a domestic terrorist and should be called that.

Might be best to remove that FB link just in case it's not him.

That's why I screencapped with no name showing.

VinLieger

Well this threads turned into the usual reactionary blame game chinese whispers sh1tshow that these breaking news after hours threads always end up turning into. The confirmation bias of the posts claiming what his motives were are really astounding.

Consider the shoe was on the other foot and if his facebook profile had been full of trump and republican pages, everyone on here rabidly feeding on the glory of him being a "leftist" and the twisted idea that this is some kind of "win" for their side of the political sphere, you would likely be claiming his profile was faked and it was some kind of conspiracy. I know you will deny it but deep down you know its true. People died tonight but all everyone is concerned about is which side is ahead of the other.

Anyway im out of this death celebratory circle jerk.

The whole incident sounds horrendous, and I feel a level of self-loathing for even feeling a modicum of hope that it is/isn't something connected to one thing or the other. Senseless suffering.

This is the amusing part of American gun politics. I mean he supports "gun victims" and "thanks obama" yet loopers like him are only able to get the guns they use BECAUSE of Trump and his ilk. The "beliefs" they have are almost always complete opposites.

There is another completely different male name being spread about on social media. Considering only one male suspect, that is terrible because one most likely incorrect identity being linked to attack

He's a Bernie Sanders supporter. Hilary would be right wing by European standards, but not Bernie. You have to remember America is a two-party system, even antifa vote Democrats.

Why exactly are people posting facebook profiles? Is this based on something the headcases from 4chan and reddit have said, or is it confirmed?

whiskeyman

Got a feeling the reason will be he didn't like country music / the festival kept him awake etc..
Just seems so indiscriminate.
