When Conspiracy Theories Go Wrong: Las Vegas Edition

Personally, I am a huge fan on conspiracy theories. I've often considered getting "CIA killed JFK" tattooed on my back, so anybody following me would bamboozled by the "truth". Conspiracy theories are powerful, they can warp the mind into strange rationalizations and can make people act in ways they never have before in their lives. They can make Trump Tards attack pizza places and have them consuming nothing but foreign media. They are also incredibly hilarious and entertaining because they are almost always bizarre and unique.


But there is a dark side to conspiracy theories. Some of us have seen this with the way the Newtown victims have been treated by insane conspirators on twitter. Now we have an new example of When Conspiracy Theories Go Wrong.

They do. It's why Trump is President. Plus, the pro-Trump media are the primary purveyors of these conspiracy theories, especially Infowars.
 
What motive do these horrible people have to dismiss his injuries and traumatic experience and call him a liar? Gun nuts fearful that the second amendment may be amended? This the only group of people that would seem to have a motive.
 
"...as hoax claims flourish on YouTube..."

Really? It's news that the dregs of humanity deficate typed excrement into the open sewer of YouTube comments?

It's a huge stretch to assign the term 'conspiracy theory' to bowel movements posted by anonymous jerkoffs on social media.

Trump is only President because the people rejected the last President and his bullshit. And I'm willing to bet that the people will put Trump in office for another 4 years. So buckle up buttercup. 😀

I put up with Obozo for 8 long miserable years. Time to feel the pain. The real pain that shoots up inside you and squeezes your sub-cockles.


Then all of his minions rioted in DC. Classy. Don't recall us Conservatives doing that in '08

You have any better explanation for why he did this? That actually isn't my theory... although I do believe Paddock was in contact with ISIS at some point. I mean... if ISIS is just claiming every attack they can on americans why aren't they claiming the recent attack in Niger? Seems like that would be a big propaganda win (if it were true).


This is what happens when somebody kills 60 people and the police are too stupid to figure out why - You get conspiracy theories. And of course you are too dumb to come up with any on your own .... so I must spoon feed you. Retard.

I've been mocked here and on another forum for raising that speculation from the jump. ISIS claimed responsibility twice and intelligence experts claim that's unusual.

Something else that seems puzzling is the fact no PR man from the FBI has come forward. There's no camera footage being shown or anything. Also, I hear a hard drive is missing. And by now I'm sure the FBI knows what was on his phone/s and computer/s.

I know shit tons on forensics. There is a massive amount of evidence here and yet we have no answers. This is a cover up.

I mean, the FBI can see all the texts you make. (your texts are not truly deleted). They can see who you called and who called you. There is just a massive amount of Intel here and for the authorities not to have a motive by now strikes me as very odd.
 
You know what else is puzzling? That you're making claims about stuff without facts.

It's still an ongoing investigation, they aren't going to be releasing everything to the public just to shut conspiracy theorists up. They don't care about you loonies.

That infowars guy just astonishes me. I can understand people being right-wing, even very right-wing, but all that 'Sandy Hook was faked' stuff is not 'right wing', it's just insane.

As far as Las Vegas goes, police incompetence is an ever-present possibility, but it's unfair to assume that so early without evidence, and why would there be a 'cover up' over just another spree-killer?

It's amazing that the people who consume that nonsense are the same ones usually spouting off how Muslims should all be rounded up and deported. I mean if you believed what Inforwars told you then literally no Muslim has ever done a terror attack on the U.S. He has claimed every last one was some sort of false flag.

You missed the point. It's only pro-Trump media, like Infowars, that pushes these conspiracy theories as though they were real news.
As to whatever it is you are saying, I don't care about your partisanship or your feelings. If partisanship is all you care about, that means you don't care about the country.
And yes, you clowns did riot for 8 years. It was pathetic. My favorite part was when 'conservatives' stopped making their mortgage payments ('because Obama crashed the housing market!') and lost their homes to foreclosure.
Stop having a memory shorter than Dory's.

Hilarious. A conspiracy retard like yourself calling out other conspiracy retards. Moron, ISIS did claim responsibility for the attack in Niger.

Now, punch yourself in the face for being so stupid. Yeah, Paddock was with ISIS and you have zero proof other than being stupid enough to believe ISIS. You believe ISIS and that makes you an idiot.

Good, I'm glad you agree that Tucker Carlson is among the "dregs of humunity."

And the National Review, no less:

http://www.nationalreview.com/corner/452771/las-vegas-shooting-still-very-very-strange

Not to mention some conservative posters on this very discussion forum. Including in this very thread.

Where do you suppose these "anonymous jerkoffs" are getting their ideas from? Probably from sources like those discussed above, and also from places like Infowars, which has millions of readers, the vast majority of them conservative.

Like all idiots, liberal or conservative, he assumes that he and his are perfect and without flaw or error, and denies any evidence to the contrary.

No they didn't. Now smack yourself in the balls for not being able to actually google the topic you are talking about. Retard.

ISIS never claimed responsibility for any attacks in Niger because they probably didn't do that attack. Most of the reports claim it is some local group that "wants" to be part of ISIS but is not actually ISIS. The only people claiming it was ISIS are the defense department and Trump... probably because it makes it sound a lot less stupid if ISIS kills american troops than if a bunch of stupid farmers were able to do it.

Their theory, with this and other mass shootings like Sandy Hook, is that liberals are staging or concocting these shootings to justify gun control legislation. An interesting notion, that anyone would take the risk of doing such a thing, when no gun control ever results from these events anyway. Literally nothing was done after Sandy Hook, and that was when we had a dem in the White House. Currently the GOP can't even get behind a bump stock ban after Vegas.

But honestly, do you really attach any credibility to statements by ISIS?
