This is a good rundown of the currently known information. Stefan is best on these pieces and addresses some hanging questions. This incident of the millionaire shooter does put the lie to the “poverty causes violence” school of thought on American violence.
Paddock and his father do, on the other hand, make the case for genetic predisposition to crime. Stefan’s review of Paddock Senior’s criminal life is just precious and positively reeks of nerd-Neanderthal envy.
The best part about the conclusion is the take away that women are worth zero in such situations and that the brutality of men, enabling by women, makes them the “moon behind the tree” in comparison to the evil of bloody-handed man’s burning sun.
The Lies That Bind Us
The Foundational Falsehoods of the American Dream
Smells fake to me. The story, as reported by the media, is improbable. Nobody seems to cry out in pain when the pops are heard. Probably a prelude to another (((gun grab))).
This event actually doesn't appear to be a hoax, though the story as it's presented is nonsense. If you listen to this taxi-driver's recording, the vollies come from different places. One distant, one close. There is a Live-Leak video of some real looking victims. Notable is the absence of fear and police:

It is apparent that gunfire is coming from two distinct sources, located apart. 2:57 - two guns, two locations.
