 I have several friends who work and live in Vegas.
I had another dozen in town for the Route 91 Festival.
As I was about to go to bed my facebook newsfeed began to fill with reports of an active shooter at Mandalay Bay.

 Photos taken from social media (LinkedIn and facebook) attempted to piece the story together.
One of my homegirls who was at the concert is a dispatcher who worked the San Bernardino shooting a few years ago so I paid particular attention to her page.

A person of interest (Marilou Danley - initially identified as 'Mary Lou Danley' based on police scanners) was thought to be a Philippine Muslim by early speculators.

A photo of her husband/boyfriend was later published.

Based on the situation in San Bernardino, ones presence at a Christmas party was no indication of being a Christian.

Some speculated that the associate of the shooter was probably of mixed race and part-Black.

Some sleuths posted photo of this guy as being Ms Danley's boyfriend. 

Others posted photos of her with her ex.

The shooter was said to have been gambling at casinos while his wife was out of town.

Some speculated that Mr Paddock was on one last bender in an attempt to catch up on gambling debts.

Speculation was that Ms Danley was out of town with her young boyfriend (The guy in the photo above?) while her husband lost all his money at the tables.

I have no idea how or why this information was shared.

Facebook was becoming Reddit or 4Chan.

Then the shooter was named as Stephen Paddock - a 64 year old white male.

My friends' friends had to quickly defend Trump, bring up Black-on-Black crime in Chicago, bring up the recent shooting spree by a Sudanese immigrant,....

Whatever it took to deflect attention away from the fact that the people white people need to fear most are other white people.
