“We still do not have a clear motive or reason why,” a frustrated Clark County Undersheriff Kevin McMahill said Friday.

So far you and LexusLover are the only people I know who know the shooters motive. You two should get on a plane, fly to Vegas and let the Authorities know of your brilliant findings! Originally Posted by WTF

the why he did does not really matter.

That is the MOTIVE.

That is wtf a MOTIVE is.

That is wtf they are trying to find out. The WHY. Why the fuck did he do this? What was his MOTIVE.

It does not matter to the dead people. I'll give you that.

Why do you think only you LexusLiar and bambino have figured out the MOTIVE?

Doesn't that give you pause?

Like hey there are only three of us who have figured this out, maybe we aren't seeing something.... like wtf a MOTIVE actually is. Not the CONSEQUENCE of the action.

You like LL and bambino have confused the two.

Motive is important. If we know why he did it, we might be able to prevent it from happening again.

If it does happen again, understanding motive could help LE more effectively eliminate the threat before more lives are lost. And if it does happen again, LE may be able to commincate and negotiate and take the bastard(s) down alive. Then we really might learn something.Only after we think we have a complete story should we (after convivtion, of course) slice up the convicts brain to look for additional findings. (And yes, I know this can be done w a CT scan)

It may also tell us if there were others involved. If there were, perhaps they can still be brought to justice. (This would happen before slicing his or her brain up)

Motive is important.

#1: ...we might be able to prevent it from happening again.

#2: If it does happen again, understanding motive could help LE more effectively eliminate the threat before more lives are lost.

#3: It may also tell us if there were others involved. Originally Posted by goodman0422

As to #1 and #2, if that were the case our jails and prisons would be empty. We've had other "mass killings" and their "motives" didn't prevent this one.

#3: The reverse is true in the investigation. Determining if others were involved and/or their involvement might reveal "motive."

"Motive" is not necessary to establish "guilt" of the murders, and since he is dead there is no need to "prove" the murders. IMO the "search" for a "motive" at this point and all the hand wringing about a "motive" is purely an attempt to shift "blame" on a political or social group ... like blaming the NRA for the weapons he had. It's a "political" interest and not a legal one.

His motive to cause people to suffer is sufficient. Look around this forum ... same motive for the derogatory and offensive accusations and name-calling. The motive is to cause people to be uncomfortable posting so what they have to say won't be said.

Do I need to cite examples?

So while you continue to confuse MOTIVE with CONSEQUENCE of his actions. The rest of Law Enforcement will continue to look for his actual MOTIVE.

"Motive" is not necessary to establish "guilt" of the murders, and since he is dead there is no need to "prove" the murders.

Sufficient for what Counselor? He is not being charged with murder so there has been no legal basis that established his MOTIVE was to cause people to suffer. So you sir are speculating as to what a legal finding would have been had he lived. When did you set up this imaginary court of law of yours?



Mean while the search for his actual MOTIVE continues. Despite your and dilbert's assentation that you already know it. You think it was because he wanted to inflict pain and suffering and dilbert thinks he wanted the infamy. I'm still not sure why Las Vegas PD hasn't contacted you two Sleuth Solvers.

They may never find the motive. He had anxiety attacks and had a prescription for Valium. He even had a Valium doctor on retainer as he gambled in the casino. Anyone with a prescription for Valium should not be allowed to buy 40 plus semi-automatic rifles.

Motive is important. If we know why he did it, we might be able to prevent it from happening again.

He made an ignorant statement and instead of admitting as much , he is doubling down on it.

Maybe we will just assign it to evil like we did 9/11 instead of realizing that Osama was trying to drag us into war.

Give me a game plan to get your proposal implemented. I need another belly laugh!

The FBI keeps changing the facts around.

"Law enforcement authorities on Monday made a significant change to the timeline of the Las Vegas mass shooting, saying the gunman shot a hotel security guard before he opened fire on concert-goers."

"It was not immediately clear why the timeline of the shooting changed a week later and what the impact could be on the investigation."

If not 40 then how about 20? How about ten? What if they are not semi-automatic? What if it is not Valium but Ambien? So many questions, so few real answers.

As for a CT scan to determine is someone is likely to commit such a crime, so what do you do with someone who trips the exam but has yet to commit any crime against anyone?

They asked for "patience"!

You people need to get a grip. If they say nothing then the loons come out whining conspiracy. If they say something and have to modify or clarify it then the same loons come out and whine conspiracy. And the media is helpful by putting their own agenda-spin to what is reported.

Look at the fools posting on here! Should I list them:

AssUp ... claiming there a no sharks off Galveston Beach
WTF ... claiming making people suffer isn't a motive
SissyLips ... no clue as to what he claims
ButtScramble ... mostly gurgling and babbling.

Why explain shit to them? They don't care and wouldn't understand. It's their McDonald's mentality. Same as a 24/7 news cycle.

I suppose it would be too much to ask for someone to wait until the toxicology reports come back from the autopsy, along with the forensic report about how much "brain damage" he had from the tumor speculated to be in his skull ... after they scraped up all his brains into a bag at the scene so they can be properly analyzed.

Next thing you know the Liberals are gonna want monthly "substance" testing and psych-eval for any one issued a CHL or anyone purchasing a firearm.

Of course asking the same of them as a prerequisite to voting, getting a driver's license, or a marriage license would be over the top! Oh about before being able to buy a condom?

It's not like they can't just talk to Jesus and ask him what happened, why did it take a week to change this rather huge detail? I call bull shit. Why did the story change so radically when they have had full access to the witness Jesus the whole time?

That's the danger of releasing information to the press ....

... and worse yet, leaks, which are usually partial, incomplete, and tainted!

The person standing up there answering questions is repeating what he was told (as he recalls it) ... I've seen the Sheriff ask someone off camera several times about specifics and passes on answering the question. Again, there have been numerous caveats! I'm not saying it's the case here: but they will release false information and wait for it to come back to them from a source with whom they are interacting ... and they will not mention key elements so that fake sources can't know those elements so they can verify if someone knows what the fuck they are talking about to them ....

.. this investigation is still ongoing and sounds international in scope.

I realize this is a 55 minute "Law and Order" segment, or even an hour and 45 minute movie with popcorn ....

.. but if you really want to know what's going on ....

just ask WTF, AssUp, ButtScramble, or SissyLips!!!
