It was a HOAX..

Or there would obviously be at least one video depicting a large number of incoming projectiles and the cutting down of victims.

Oh... and why use fake actors with fake stories when you have real victims ? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XO5EnT60g3E&t=1s

could be a hybrid both fakery and a real shooting to confuse everybody and muddle anyone from figuring out what happened. I have some serious doubts that this actually occurred though. I mean they whole thing feels scripted. I heard a lady who worked in ER say that gunshot victims need immediate medical attention or they're dusted. None of this scripted carrying away people in wheelbarrows onto the back of trucks bullshit and miraculously surviving is actual believable from a medical perspective. Its makes no sense to do that since they need immediate emt attention or was it done so that real medical personnel don't see the fakery.

all of those vegas hotels have heavy duty sealed windows for reasons of energy efficiency, and liability vs suicide etc.

The only hotel with broken windows was the Mandalay. In that one room.

How many people can you hit and kill if you fire rapid fire into a crowd like that? It's not precision shooting here.

It is indeed precision shooting, that's the worst part, the guy allegedly did the maths to figure out where to aim, to compensate the bullets' curved trajectory due to the distance

I mean who fucking does that? Pros

What doesn't add up is that the guy wasn't a pro, at least officially, and the way he shot... Well it doesn't really fit with precision shooting, and doesn't indicate he was into some sort of neat work

"The duration of the bursts, as recorded, suggest that Mr. Paddock cared little about the military’s prescriptions for automatic fire. Sustained rapid fire is difficult to control and causes many weapons, especially light weapons, to overheat quickly.

Maj. Dave Eastburn, a Pentagon spokesman, said that the military had no record of Mr. Paddock serving in any of the uniformed services."
