10 Compelling Reasons Why the Vegas Shooting Has Disappeared from Headlines (Video)

10 Compelling Reasons Why the Vegas Shooting Has Disappeared from Headlines
One of the things that I have noticed about the American public is their total lack of concentration on much of anything for more than a few minutes. To have an event of this nature slide into the background of the news cycle, something that is clearly extremely troubling and yet spend days on and on talking about Russia, Russia Russia is so disingenuous for the the Mainstream Media.
Here we have almost 60 people dead, and hundreds injured which was reported to have happened in the most deadliest mass shooting in American History.. all played out to be anyways, and yet, they are not releasing information, the authorities have locked down the hotels, the lawyers, the witnesses, the independent reporters and all of Vegas seems to be going back to business as usual. The citizen journalists seem to be the only ones who see this as problematic.
People have been researching 911 for over 16 years, and JFK for decades so why is this event any different, and especially considering the loss of life and injuries endured.
How many lawsuits? How come no word about legal issues?
Where is the FBI on this case? Why are they changing stuff.
It's like they got caught, then decided to simply erase the whole event out of history. Not the first time.
But how can people allow this?
YouTube has done its level best to discourage anyone from posting information on this event on their channels. YouTube is severely censoring creators, shutting down channels, deleting subscribers and a host of other passive aggressive tactics. It's almost like you know, your video will be demonetized moments after you press "publish".
Mention Las Vegas, and instantly your video gets hit. It's reminiscent of pizzagate.
But we cannot let them deter us. If YouTube wants to play Las Vegas Police on Las Vegas videos, we have to find other alternatives to share the information. YouTube will regret what it is doing but right now, we gotta keep it in the front of the minds of the people.
I am not on the ground, I am not going to Vegas to check anything out, but what I can do I will do. All these other events are just distractions to keep us from paying attention. We cannot let them do that. They will throw us a bone and have us grapple at that bone, while they are off planning their next false flag.
Vegas WAS HUGE!!! And it was a Huge Cover-up. Vegas was War! And while after 911 they wanted to claim it was the Arabs who had declared war on the US, this Vegas thing has become hopelessly lost in the sauce of daily tripe. People don't even seem to realize that it was an act of war against American People.. And by whom? Are they still on the loose? And why? And for all intents and purposes, who else but a well funded, well orchestrated, well informed, group of folks could have pulled this off. Not some amateur gun runner.
So check out this article. Book mark this page and refer to it. Think about the points it makes and ask yourself, why?




10 Compelling Reasons Why the Vegas Shooting Has Disappeared from Headlines
Excerpt:
Las Vegas, NV – With the 24/7 news cycle constantly in full swing, important stories at times get lost in the constant onslaught of non-stop information. The mainstream media gatekeepers essentially dictate what social and cultural memes are injected into the public consciousness, what topics are discussed, and which cases are given publicity and thoroughly investigated with journalistic rigor.
With such oligarchical control of the mass media – the media gatekeepers of information decide what stories stay in the glare of the public spotlight, and which ones are allowed to fade from the headlines.
Without question, one would reasonably expect the most deadly mass shooting in recent American history, which took place in Las Vegas on October 1, 2017, to maintain a strong presence in the headlines — especially given the lack of answers surrounding the case.
The scant information released by investigators indicates that Stephen Paddock, 64, who by all accounts was independently wealthy and a Vegas high-roller, opened fire on a music festival from a 32nd-floor hotel room at the Mandalay Bay Casino.
The massacre left 58 dead and 546 injured, yet one and a half months later and there are still few answers – even to the most basic of questions.
Now, a month and a half later, there are few answers to the most deadly mass shooting in recent U.S. history – and perhaps even more strange – the case has been jettisoned from the 24/7 mainstream media cycle, despite the fact that the most basic of questions have yet to be answered.

Las Vegas Event: Real or Contrived? Ask A Psychic (VIDEOS)

Las Vegas Event: Real or Contrived? Ask A Psychic

I have been thinking over and over again, how should I approach this reading.  Should I look at the characters, i.e, Stephen Paddock, Jesus Campos or Sheriff Lombardo.  Should I look at some of the eye witnesses who appeared credible or the eyewitnesses who appeared totally unbelievable.





I started looking at Stephen Paddock and could see from the readings there were many twists and turns in this scenario that is being painted around him. I just couldn't get the sense that he was actually the guy who did the shooting nor the guy pictured in the leak photo.

This guy makes me think of the guy from 911, William Rodriguez. I think this guy ended up in the middle of something that he was not prepared to see. He ended up at the wrong place at the wrong time, just doing his job, so they had to give him a new MO and identity and I get the sense they threatened him and his family if he didn't go along with the program. I am gonna take a look at that guy that is being called Jesus Campos. Just the name has some other meaning, especially when you are talking about "harvest".. Campos means "fields" in Spanish. Paddock means "small field, meadow". They are working this story line thru the symbolism. Basically, the event took place in a "field". Jesus is supposed to save. Right? On one level they have him as a Savior because he supposedly saved the engineer's life, right? They are working this thing subliminally, because in essence, Jesus didn't really save those people on the ground, in the field.. you see where I'm going with this? People get filled with despair and like that guy told the lady who was stranded in her home during the hurricane, he said, "Call on Jesus to save you."

I wondered if I should follow the money so to speak as that could also give some clues as to some of the other complicit characters in this event.

To say no one was hurt or killed is not where I feel a strong foundation for inquiry. I am sure if not absolutely certain that some folks were hurt and maybe even killed in this event.  But the mystery around the folks who were claimed to have been killed, the fact that folks were not allowed in the hospital to see their loved ones, although I can only imagine that the emergency ward had to have been a crazy place that night, and having more folks running in to see about their loved ones would have surely made things even crazier so sending them away may have been the best call.

Then you have the intrigue surrounding the victims and their obituaries. Rumor has it the obits were scripted and there was no grave sites listed for the so called deceased. 
The story gets stranger and stranger the more you delve into it with shooting taking place in at least 5 other hotels on the strip and shooting taking place on the ground. But what really takes the cake is the silence that has come over the Mainstream Media in relation to this event. They seem to have ditched their efforts in propagandizing the official narrative and gone on to greener pastures and more sensationalism with Weinstein and the women coming out at this late date to tar and feather him.

And of course, the Russia narrative is looking pretty murky and the Clinton's and Obama's may have a little egg on their faces once it is revealed that the collusion with Russia went on long before Trump got in the white house.  And then Mr. Trump threatens to release the JFK files, yeah!

All I can say is that there is certainly a whole lot of shaking going on and many distractions to boot, and we are still moving on away from the human tragedy that happened with the hurricanes and fires. The fact that so many thousands of people have been displaced and millions without power and have to sign a waver that they will not boycott Israel so they can get relief services is really troubling.

Trump not realizing that he is the President of the Virgin Islands, and he's killed more civilians with his drone strikes these few months in office than Obama did the entire time. But of course, the drone technology was perfected during Obama's administration so it's just a little bit more of the same.

I just sit back and sigh, as we have been given a huge slice of the Twilight Zone pie.

So where do I go from here as it relates to Las Vegas and what was reported to have happened on Oct. 1, 2017??

It's too bad that the public is so busy moving all over the place, that they cannot stay focused long enough to bring resolve to the pressing issues that impact and effect the lives of people who live just a few states away. 

Investigative reporters stay on the case but the public interest wanes and people simply go on to the next distraction.

We need a lot of help.

So after much thinking and pondering, my angle will be this one.

Did Las Vegas happen as we were told it happened? Are we being duped into believing that 60 people and almost 600 people were injured? Is this some sort of Psyops to manipulate the masses? Or what?

Of course, in dealing with the I Ching you really have to be ever so careful how you word your questions.  In this case, it will be extremely challenging because of the many variables that seem to be quite nebulous to say the least with narratives changing and time lines changing and more information coming out and "experts" weighing in and folks trying to be the "first" one to crack the mystery.

In essence, it's like a Hollyweird movie and we are the spectators of this spectacle.

Anyways, I will share with you to the best of my knowledge, what the Oracle has to say about Las Vegas and as they say, 'do your own research," or "you be the judge."
Without a doubt YouTube will censor this video but I really don't care anymore. I will be posting this on Bitchute. But slowly but surely, I will make BitChute my go to for videos in the future.


Stay tuned.

The Elephant in the Room, Las Vegas Event 10-01-2017 (Videos)

The Elephant in the Room, Las Vegas Event 10-01-2017

My videos are typically created out of inspiration that motivates me to express my thoughts and views in a certain way. While I had intended to make this presentation based on several videos and links to articles that I had viewed surrounding this subject, it wasn't until today that I actually was inspired to present my thoughts on this event in the way you will see laid out here.





All too often when these events happen folks get caught up in the details, pitting one detail against the other, assuming they are correct about the whole picture while glaringly staring at one branch on the tree.

My experience has taught me, to always go to the root of the situation issue or concern. Analyze it from deep within and then make connections on your way out.  

My first reaction to this most recent event in Las Vegas was the proverbial.. Bullshit!  Then I watched a ton of videos read even more articles, and I will post the links to all of them in the blog. The link to the blog is in the description below.

There is also the need in these type of situations to pull all the evidence together into one whole picture.  The western mind tends to think linearly, and  decide it is either this way or that way. When in actuality, it is typically all of the above in most cases. If we take a moment to see how almost all scenarios could have taken place, we can see a much broader agenda and the purpose of it, rather than focusing on one agenda and running with that.  We have to be ever aware that the entities who run the world, are not limited to one agenda, purpose or even narrative. It is very strategic and it understands that as situations contain their own variables, the narrative has to change with each situation or point of view or perspective.


The first thing folks say is it's about gun control, however, they fail to realize that if it were truly about gun control, all the government would have to do is round up all the guns. Instead, these events cause more folks to buy more guns and the guns and ammunition fly off the shelves within hours or days after these events.

Confusion mounts surrounding the details of the events, which is exactly why the details tend to contradict each other.  Multiple stories serve the purpose of keeping the masses chasing its tail, each one trying to be the one to solve the mystery and have the one answer that fits all.  They just don't realize that it's all of the above.

Meanwhile, distrust is fomented between all parties for or against the narrative.  No one knows what to believe, and those who are fervent about their positions are willing to fight tooth and nail to have their position be the last word on it.  But they are still looking at it in a linear fashion, and the people who plan these events know full well that everything is a circle.

Fear, is the most immediate outcome of these events, but it is not the main goal.  Shaking up the masses can be done with a scary movie of end times or the grid being blasted by solar flares.  The masses have been terrorized for so long that it is no longer gain worthy to keep that scenario going.  And nowadays with Conspiracy sleuths on the case, before long the entire story unravels.  Which just gives them even more incentive to create a new one.

Before long another Distraction is produced to give the MSM more fodder for their "fake news" which has been "fake" for decades and exposed as such for just as long.  However to hear government officials parrot the line of fake news seems to make it more believable, and remember, Obama spoke in Germany about fake news, long before they gave that "meme" to Trump.  And Hillary blasted the Alt-Right in some of her campaign speeches.  The agenda was in the works long before "Trump" came into office, but he makes the perfect fall guy for the agenda.

The Alternative Media scrambles to pull the pieces together as well, but since it too has the linear way of looking at things, the alternative perspectives get into the battle field of wanting to prove their point is more relevant than the other.  

I typically do not even watch MSM news, but nowadays, YouTube has the long list of them in my suggested videos, I actually have to take the time to find alternative points of view and they are becoming more and more like needles in a haystack.  I can barely find some of my favorites so I know that my subscribers will have just as difficult of a time finding mine.
Again I say, the alternative news has to use a broader brush, even broader than they are now using and realize, it's all of the above.


The Civil War in this country was fomented by folks who sponsored both sides, that is what a Civil War really is about.   There are bad guys and good guys on both sides.  But to have a Civil War, both sides have to be armed and extremely dangerous. In order to do so, and especially if the manufacturers have no sides, they are armed with the same weapons.  In other words, they are shooting and killing each other with weapons provided by the same manufacturers.  The color of money does not change.

Folks may appear to be fighting for the "greater good" but that greater good is only in the eyes of the beholder. And if money is good and control is good, well by any means necessary even if it involves complicity and collusion.

When we fully examine the Divide and Conquer strategy we get a bit closer to what this Las Vegas and many other conflicts around the world are about.  If you destabilize the masses among themselves, they will be so overwhelmed by confusion and thinking linearly, they feel they have to "pick a side" they will totally miss the point that they are being divided.  For centuries in human history, this has been the underlying agenda for control and dominance.  Political parties, identity politics, religion and sexual preferences are simply smoke screens for the real agenda, and that is to keep the masses squabbling over the crumbs while the entities in charge get the lion share of the whole pie.

Even with the issue of Puerto Rico disruption of distribution of supplies. San Juan Mayor, Carmen Yulín Cruz, is supported by Hillary Clinton, Puerto Rican Governor Ricardo Rossello Supported by Trump. Divide and conquer leads once again to destabilization and the masses hurt and confused, don't know which way to go.  It is so dangerous and truly an opportune time for the government to get even more control via the auspices of "humanitarian efforts".

I can't help but notice the many similarities between these so-called "staged" events and the so-called perpetrators who are responsible for them and for the most part deceased and therefore cannot defend themselves.  But those who have made it to a court of law are obviously compromise in some way and in some instances, are not even the ones whom the MSM claimed were the original perpetrators.  But it is very interesting and quite a tell-tale sign when the similarities are lined up.  In fact, I was kind of tickled when I saw the connection between just these two, Stephen Paddock and Steve Stephens.  Beyond the name, did we get the whole disgruntled gambler in there? Mr. Paddock allegedly killed a bunch of innocents and Steve Stephens killed a kindly old man.  The outrage is enough to certainly steer the sights of the masses from the real culprit. Correct?

Then we have a tie in with Adam Lanza. How could such an old man, seemingly a bit of a boozer, have the strength and know how to kill so many folks and from such a distance and with such high power weaponry? Comparing that to the story of Adam Lanza, a quiet withdrawn young man barely over 120 lbs being able to wield such high powered weaponry as well, and of course, they both had to be mentally unbalanced.  If you ask me, it's the script writer who needs mental health assistance along with the folks who believe this. It is unfortunate that folks become so distracted that they can't see "the forest for the trees."

The largest mass shooting in American History. Personally, they said this about what happened at the Pulse Nightclub in Orlando, but they tend to forget a couple of other events..  Las Vegas Is Only the Deadliest Shooting in US History Because They Don’t Count Black Lives. The link to the events recounted in the historical record is in the blog post below as well. Today, it is needed to continue the blame game and keep the natives restless as they rewrite history for the umteenth time.  The MSM shudders at alternative news outlets calling them "fake news" while they are knee deep in propaganda.

The Irony More Gun Control for Civilians/More Militarization of the Police
Is very striking as an outcome for these situations. Unless Mr. Paddock was an octopus, how would one man shoot or need to have available 42 guns?

So let's look at the big Elephant in the room. The idea that gun control will stop gun violence is quite laughable. Even with the law stating……..

It is quite apparent that if anyone in the Shadow Government wants to create a scenario of terror they will simply find a patsy and give him all the guns "he" or "they" need to pull it off.  It really doesn't matter how many gun laws are enacted.  They can all be ignored, circumvented or colluded with. And who has access to these weapons? The big elephant in the room.

As long as the big Elephant in the room has access to these weapons, no amount of gun laws, codes, regulations, etc, will keep those guns out of the hands of those who will terrorize the masses with them.  The US government is one of the biggest if not the biggest gun salesman in the world, and they have destabilized countries to prove it. 

The US is notorious for selling and giving guns to so-called rebels/terrorists in conflicts as well as arming the prevailing governments against the so-called rebels/terrorist.  They sell their weapons to both sides of the conflict. Gun manufacturers know exactly who they are selling these high powered automatic weapons to, US governmental agencies with the authority to purchase them.

What they do with them after purchasing them can be seen in these mass shootings where people who are seemingly in capable of tying their shoes without falling over are performing feats like super soldiers. And the baby elephant in the room?  Who are these super soldiers? And who trains them?

We can scrap back and forth for days and days, watch a ton of videos and read another ton of articles, but the bottom line is, only the US government and its many intelligent and law enforcement agencies can pull off these events as they have full and unfettered access to all the resources needed to make it happen.  As we squabble among ourselves as to what the real narrative is about these attacks, they are planning the next one. In essence even the attack itself, is a distraction from the real deal.

Authorities Release Dashcam Video of Philando Castile Killing Days After Ex-Cop’s Acquittal (VIDEOS)

Authorities Release Dashcam Video of Philando Castile Killing Days After Ex-Cop’s Acquittal


   
EXCERPT: MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — The Minnesota police officer who pulled over Philando Castile politely told the driver that his brake lights were out and calmly instructed him not to pull out his handgun before suddenly drawing his own weapon and firing seven rounds into the car, a video released Tuesday showed.

The dashboard video taken from St. Anthony police Officer Jeronimo Yanez’s squad car illustrated how a simple traffic stop of a Black man shifted in an instant from a routine exchange to a deadly confrontation.





When Yanez opened fire, another officer near the car jumped back, and Yanez began yelling at the driver. As more police and an ambulance arrived, Yanez could be heard breathing heavily and swearing and trying to explain his actions to fellow officers.

The video was made public just days after the Latino officer was acquitted on all counts in the case. Although the squad-car footage was described repeatedly and was shown to jurors in the courtroom, it had never been made public until Tuesday.

The shooting on July 6, 2016, in the Twin Cities suburb of Falcon Heights gained widespread attention because Castile’s girlfriend, Diamond Reynolds, livestreamed its gruesome aftermath on Facebook. Unlike Reynolds’ video, the squad-car video shows the situation’s quick escalation and the shooting itself.

Yanez, who was found not guilty of manslaughter and other charges, began firing only seconds after Castile told the officer he had a gun.

Is Racial Bias a Factor In Cosby Jury Selection? (Videos)

NB Commentary: Personally, I don't think it's about race. I am sure they will be hard pressed to find a jury that either didn't hear about the allegations or never heard of Bill Cosby. I mean next to Oprah and Barack Obama, what other internationally known Black person have we heard of coming out of Hollywood especially during those days. Not to mention his TV series and commercials. If anything, folks will be more lenient even tolerant or maybe even disbelieving in the allegations due to his notoriety.





It's about Hollywood, it's about being a part of the shenanigans that go on in Hollyweird. It's about how they chose certain folks to be "Super Stars" and how they exploit them once they agree to being chosen. It's about the promises that are made to them and what they have to do to still be a part of the game. It's about the parties, the backroom deals, the wine, women and song. And may I add, drugs and other nefarious goings on that happen in Hollyweird. Eddie Murphy said something to the effect, that it's hard to get out of Hollywood clean.

Back in the day, much of the stuff that went on in Hollyweird was hidden from the public, nowadays, there are a plethora of articles, documents and YouTube videos that tell the story of what happens in Hollywood. Bill Cosby was chosen to play a role and as long as he played that role, he was able to do whatever he did. I strongly believe he decided he didn't want to play ball anymore. Not sure what ball they threw his way, but for sure, these folks in Hollyweird make you an offer you can't refuse.. Or you go down and it's just that simple. It ain't about race, it's about the game. If you are gonna be a player, then you gotta play…. Or else.



By  Associated Press  May 24, 2017

Bill Cosby arrives for the second day of jury selection in his sexual assault case at the Allegheny County Courthouse. (AP Photo/Gene J. Puskar)
PITTSBURGH (AP) — With just one Black person seated among the first 11 jurors chosen for Bill Cosby’s sexual assault trial, defense lawyers are crying foul and accusing prosecutors of trying to systematically keep Blacks off the jury.
The lawyers returned to court on Wednesday in Pittsburgh to pick a 12th juror and six alternates. Cosby arrived Wednesday just before 8 a.m.
For now, Judge Steven O’Neill has rejected the race bias argument.
Prosecutors said race was not a factor in their decision to strike two Black women from the panel this week. They said one was a former Pittsburgh police detective who sued the city after she was arrested in a public scandal.
O’Neill pledged to revisit the issue if defense lawyer Brian McMonagle, who had accused prosecutors of “a systematic exclusion of African-Americans,” presented statistical evidence to back that up.
The 100 people summoned to the Allegheny County courthouse for juror consideration so far have included 16 people of color. A new jury pool will be summoned on Wednesday.
The jurors selected on Tuesday included a Black woman who said she knew only “basic information” about the case, a young white man who initially expressed a tendency to believe police and two people who said they don’t read or watch the news.
The jury now consists of seven men and four women — all but one of them white — in a case that Cosby has said may have racial undertones.
The actor-comedian once known as America’s Dad for his beloved portrayal of Dr. Cliff Huxtable on “The Cosby Show” is charged with drugging and molesting a Temple University women’s basketball team manager at his home near Philadelphia in 2004. He has called the encounter consensual. Dozens of other women have made similar accusations against Cosby, 79, but O’Neill is allowing only one of them to testify at the June 5 trial in suburban Philadelphia. The jury from Pittsburgh will be sequestered nearly 300 miles from home.
Cosby, in an interview last week, said race could be a motivating factor in the accusations against him.
“Race plays a role in every trial, but it shouldn’t eclipse … the evidence,” Loyola Law School professor Laurie Levenson said. “This case is frankly more about gender, celebrity, how women are treated [and] Bill Cosby’s credibility. But race may take a more focused perspective because the defense has [raised it] recently.”
The trial will take place in Montgomery County, where Cosby had invited Andrea Constand to his home in 2004. Constand said she went seeking career advice. She said Cosby gave her wine and pills that put her in a stupor before molesting her on his couch. Constand was 30 and dating a woman at the time, while Cosby was 66 and long married to wife Camille. Cosby in sworn testimony has said he put his hand down Constand’s pants but said she did not protest.
Cosby has said he does not expect to testify.
The Associated Press does not typically identify people who say they are the victims of sexual assault unless they come forward, as Constand has done.
Cosby was arrested Dec. 30, 2015, just days before the 12-year statute of limitations expired. He has pleaded not guilty and remains free on $1 million bail.
