He was a poker player, a man who practiced the art of concealing his motives.

Some men aren’t looking for anything logical, like money. They can’t be bought, bullied, reasoned, or negotiated with. Some men just want to watch the world burn.

Why is this so hard for authorities to admit that a bored rich guy wanted to destroy the middle class?. It’s been going on for decades now ever since St. Reagan took up the John Bircher/Heritage Foundation’s gauntlet.

Profile of today’s typical Republican. Why else would you vote for Trump?

The only thing I know about detective work is once you have eliminated every reasonable explanation what remains no matter how implausible is probably true. Maybe they are looking in the wrong place. Anybody ever think this guy might be the victim of somebody else who covered his tracks using the old man who he killed just before leaving the hotel room? Didn’t they say he planned to escape? Maybe the actual killer made good his escape.

I know, I don’t have any evidence for my theory, but it makes as much sense as any other explanation I have read. Bored rich guy just doesn’t cut it. Most people leave clues as to their motive. Why didn’t this guy?

Bump stocks are selling out. They may be able to get a clue by interviewing the buyers while they are still alive.

This is from the London Daily Mail, so the quality of the journalism should be taken with a couple grains of salt, but there may be a connection (very arguably tenuous) between the Bundy’s and the Las Vegas shooter…

He was a grotesque and sadistic murderer. Sometimes that’s all the motive there is.
