I felt the same way about Vegas. No way was Paddock the shooter with a bump stock. That was a belt fed weapon. And, the picture of him dead? He'd been that way for better than 2 hours. If anyone cares to see why, look around his head, underneath the big blob of fresh blood and you will see dark dried blood. The picture was supposedly taken as soon as they did a cursory clearing of the room.And I'm not a believer in conspiracy theories... but I darn well know an orchestrated campaign when I see it. Broward county... it could have been any school shooting. But Broward happened to be where the "Go Code" was given.
So in my analysis... the "Organize" types had lined up... A campaign to attack the NRA-related businesses. Teachers Unions lined up to contact teachers to organize students in 'Study plans' and organizing to oppose guns. A narrative set up for the press. Ready to go... reporters ready to do their stories. Legislation waiting among key congresspeople and politicians at national, state and local levels. Rallies planned (and funded in advance.... busses, hotels, permit-processes ready to go... none of that is free.) Hollywood types all prepped, briefed and ready to express outrage and get on the TV the instant their services were needed. Messaging pre-tested and focus-grouped. Signs painted and TV ads ready to go.
All run through dozens... probably hundreds... of organizations funded by everything from Soros Open Societies and Bloomberg's EveryTown... to all the 'Punishment money" collected by the Obama administration from banks, etc... and distributed to community organizations. All sitting quietly waiting just to fill in the blanks on their pre-prepared press releases and legislation... Waiting for the word 'go.'
That said... this is not a conspiracy... it's a campaign. Well-planned and well-orchestrated. And noone is hiding it or hiding the fact that they are behind it. Or behind it. A campaign is not a conspiracy. It's how you shift the needle if you have the money and the messaging and the sheep. It's simply Waging Public Relations... against the NRA and the Constitutions and the gun-owning public. This is no different how you go about launching iPhone 10 or a new Hollywood blockbuster. Marketing... against the Constitution and against the Americans who support it.
When something goes to this level of 'surround sound' don't for a second believe that it is all a grassroots movement. It was all planned in advance.
The good news is that We The People are not as stupid as the Progressives believe we are. At least not all of us.

FWIW, conspiracy and campaign mean the same in this case. One is covert, the other overt.
