Now it's coming out that the shooter's Dad was a bank robber in the 60s and 70s and was on the FBI 10 Most Wanted List

And it has now emerged that his father, Patrick Benjamin Paddock, was known as a violent bank robber during the 1960s and 1970s. His crimes made him one of the most notorious criminals in the US during his heyday.
the Las Vegas killer's father “diagnosed as psychopathic, has carried firearms in commission of bank robberies” and “reportedly has suicidal tendencies and should be considered armed and very dangerous.”
When he was apprehended by the FBI, he attempted to run down an agent using his car, the report said.

From reports I have heard this guy was gambling like mad the past few weeks in that area. This is such a big tragedy. This guy planned this out in advance. I would like to know why are we allowed to buy these military style weapons so easily. It appears he modified it to be an automatic weapon. These guns that are so high powered are so easy to get a hold of is so stupid. These types of guns should not be sold at all. It's to easy to put them into a automatic weapon.

1. So i'm guessing an enraged spirit that had him beyond himself, maybe lost a good bit?

2. i think so, concert down below and all.

3. Well, this is America. You can be or do whatever you want here. The landscape of the country is changing so much since the constitution was made, they just didn't see the moral fiber degrading to where it is.

The good thing is ... he could've planted devices prior or like some said throw grenades or different things with 30k people packed so tightly. This country is built on values of God. Love, trust, and respect for one another has given to this country what it has. Yes, we have the ability to destroy one another here with 3d printing, foreign kits, black markets, and the ability to do whatever. What holds America together is the honorable, moral, upstanding, law abiding people. Why it is such a nice place other than when it's not like in these instances.

Gambling is also an obvious problem.. we all should think about why we do it. What are we after? What's the goal? Entertainment you can afford here or there.. or is it something we absolutely live for. How important are all these games, sports, and casinos to us... well, the devil not only stole all his money and time in casinos but he will have a miserable end. Then these people's lives snatched from them, sad. i hope they believed in Jesus. i hope everyone gets to know Him. Life's to short.

Guys this was planned for atleast 3 days

He struck at the ideal moment

last act of the last show
he planned sucide

why not go on a 4 day bender first losing everything

i don't buy it as the cause

The shooters brother own words -

His brother, Eric Paddock, said he was a peaceful man who moved back to Nevada, where gambling is legal, partly because of his fondness for video poker.

"He's never drawn his gun, it makes no sense," Paddock said from his doorstep in Orlando, Florida. His brother had a couple of handguns he kept in a safe, perhaps a long rifle, "but no automatic weapons."
Eric Paddock said he had helped his brother move away from Central Florida's humidity to Nevada. The two were last in touch last month, texting about power outages after Hurricane Irma slammed into Florida.

Was the lady in the crowd saying everybody was gonna die connected to this?

Alcohol is no different then gambling, all in moderation and control you are good, out of control you are not and probably on a fast track to your own destruction.......

Just about anything in life that you lose control over and abuse can become dangerous and self destructive.. Sex, all drugs, alcohol, gambling, over eating, you name it, if you are out of control then good luck with that..

Who knows? I've was in Vegas a few times last month and I saw more than a few people yelling crazy things. That city has a mental health problem. They have for years. Like most flashy cities they are a beacon for poor people with delusions.

No doubt, I wouldn't be surprised one bit if he crossed paths with SBR or another gambling forum at some point. FBI is going to be combing through SBR posts and realize we break cases days before they do. I wouldn't be the least bit surprised if the FBI creates an account here just to use us to solve their cases.

you might get one rusted up ar or something ... you won't get 10 well firing ar's off the street like that, he probably got um in vegas. he had money and no criminal history.

**JIBBBY** · 10-02-17, 01:48 PM

Compulsive gamblers typically don't morph into serial mass shooting killers.. If anything compulsive gamblers are more like to commit suicide or even turn to a life of peddy crime for money instead..

This shooter in Vegas had serious mental problems and snapped obviously.. Or just was purely evil...

The Vegas cops got on this guy’s ass pretty quick. I think in many other cities he would have run out of ammo.

**Plaza23** · 10-02-17, 02:34 PM

So we have ISIS claiming this guy converted to Islam months ago and taking responsibility.

And there is also evidence that he had filed a lawsuit against Mandalay Bay claiming he tripped and fell on their premises.

Yeah, it helped that the fire alarm was set off in his room by all the shooting.

I'd think breaking out windows would set off alarms. This guy's father was a bank robber according to the brother on the FBI Top 10 list.

The brother claims he was a wealthy guy that went on cruises.

Some of you are worse than jewish housewives with your gossip. Let law enforcement do their job and they will provide information as it becomes concrete.

If you all really want to help, book a trip to Vegas in the next few months and support the economy.

Isis always claims this kind of crap even if it isn't ISIS. They are full of shiiiit..

Shooters own brother said he had no strong political or religious beliefs and or dislikes that he knew of..

His own brother looked a little mental though himself in the interview I saw just now on the news.... Something is off with this entire family if I had to guess...

It was definitely a pre-meditated attack. Got special rooms facing the exact spot of the concert and brought the necessary weapons to reach the targets.

**jjgold** · 10-02-17, 02:50 PM

so funny when people go on twitter and offer support and surrow meaning celebs..these victimes are total strangers to them

So selfish and all about them...they do not care as do most people unless your friends or family

Im going to chalk up his brother's interview with tv reporter as him being in shock. How would any of us react if we just found out our sibling committed a massacre?

I hope for the sake of all the victims and their families, this sick bastard left a journal or something to give them some answers as to why he stole the lives from so many people.

We did some supply drops at the blood bank and lvc and the gf is organizing a blood drive for tmrw for all of our employees who want to donate blood. She said all 219 employees we have in Vegas have all signed up to donate and the ones in Cali and RI want to pitch in. So proud of my people.
