Are you implying some sort of conspiracy or something?
Nah. But they do keep dying. Doesn't this make four? :eek6
There were ~22,000 people at the concert, that's a post-shooting annualized death rate of ~.0011. That's roughly similar to the death rate for the US population at large.
Thought that'd be the case. Thanks for looking up the stats for us.
I am not a lawyer, nor have I played one on TV, nor did I stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night, nor should anything I say be taken as legal advice. If it is important that any information be accurate, do not use me as the only source.

Accidents make up five to six percent of the total deaths each year. Heart disease including "old age" account for a quarter of US deaths and cancer more than twenty percent. So if four times as many of the concert goers are dying of cancer than from accidents, then it's unremarkable statistically.
This is my opinion. There are many like it, but this one is mine.

Two months and questions remain.

Alleged lone shooter's estate worth 5 million. Did not leave a will. Brother says it should go to the victims. Probate court will decide who oversees the estate.

While I'm not a tin-foil hat kind of guy, there's far more to this story than we are being told.....

The coroner has issued a two statements.

All deaths at the concert were caused by a bullet to the head or chest. No deaths were from other causes.

The person in the room who was found dead, died from a bullet from a gun placed in his mouth. He has ruled it a suicide.

Want to finally know why Stephen Paddock gunned down 58 people in Las Vegas in early October?

Be prepared to wait a while – possibly until next October – the chief of the FBI’s Las Vegas office revealed this week during an interview in which he said the agency probably wouldn't brief the public until their report is released sometime before the tragedy’s first anniversary.
The left lies about everything. Truth is a liberal value, and truth is a conservative value, but it has never been a left-wing value. People on the left say whatever advances their immediate agenda. Power is their moral lodestar; therefore, truth is always subservient to it. - Dennis Prager

I don't really care that much about his motive. What I care about was:
1. Were there other shooters?
2. Did he have assistance from anyone?
3. Were any of the guns he used automatic?
4. Could have or should have anyone realized he was going to do this?
5. Was he a member of a terrorist organization or did he have contact with them?
6. Was he a government consultant, employee or volunteer at the time of the shooting?

If all the answers to these questions are no. Then things are pretty straight forward. Not no then I have a lot of issues.

Do they have forensics proving he shot anybody that day? As far as I can tell from what they released, the main evidence for suicide was nobody else in the room when the cops finally got there.

Can you remotely imagine "The Black Lies Matter" crowd getting gunned down and nothing, absolutely nothing further is heard about it?

Isn't that why they started rioting in the first place? They were gunned down by the cops and the cops didn't go to jail.
I prefer peace, but if trouble must come, let it be in my time that my children may know peace.

His sniper roost was booked under his name. He was going to be the prime suspect if he survived. Same if he died. If he acted alone, he had nothing to gain by thwarting an after action investigation.
