If he was truly a one man operation without even a valet or a bellman to help carry his stuff into the hotel, I'd have to say he accomplished a lot for his efforts.
Can't argue that, IF he acted as a completely "lone wolf," I am impressed with his hauling 2
dozen firearms and however much ammo, up to his room, but if he were the dime store Lex Luthor we're being led to believe (and was hell bent on using bumpfire instead of something more efficient), he would have been equally as effective with like 2 rifles and **** ton of loaded magazines. Idk maybe I'm wrong, I usually don't bring my whole set of clubs to play putt-putt.

Now if it were an improvised attack with a very short window to prepare for, I'd totally be impressed, but again if he had been planning it for as long as they're saying he had (and part of it was to survive and get away to attack another day) then he's an idiot. Your opinion may vary.

There was a concert getting ready to go on.
He had a do not disturb sign on his door for 3 days. It would be extremely easy to walk in and out with a guitar case strapped on the back with a gun going up, empty coming down, and a gun going back up as a casual come and go.
He was well known to the staff and as Steve Wynn said in his interview, his staff that also knew him never saw in their records where he nor his girl friend ever ordered one glass of wine or alcohol of any sort. He had been coming to the casino's since 06, and had never raised any issues or caused any problems. The perfect customer.
Why he did this, who knows. I hope they can pinpoint something.

Don't even need a long guitar or rifle case - all those guns I've heard about break down into an upper and lower and you could fit 5 or 6 complete rifles into a decent-sized suitcase, I'd imagine.
With a rolling D Bag, I'm sure you could get at least 6 rifles he and a couple cans of ammo. I have a LL Bean rolling duffel and 80lb is no problem

The cases they use to tote golf clubs into a hotel are large enough to carry a dozen of so rifles in on wheels.

What do yall think of this...I'm no conspiracy theorist but it makes some sense with the circumstances.


"Share this video because it's monetized and I make money every time someone watches it.
If YT finds out it's another conspiracy video they will leave it up but unmonetize it and I won't make money anymore".

That's what he should have said.
