They are not going to go through your suitcases. Also what is the laws in LAS about having a gun in your hotel room?
22 suitcases and one person in the room and they didn't think to notify anyone?
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

Do you have any idea what a maid sees in Vegas hotels?

Sure it sounds crazy after the fact, but before... Just another day.

I doubt there are any. Nevada is fairly lenient when it comes to firearms AFAIK.

Memories last forever, make them while you can.

Maybe he was a DDFer with his own kosher food.

You're right. I'd be utterly shocked if a maid looked through my suitcases in a hotel. :P

Vegas hosts a million trade shows.
It’s not uncommon at all for exhibitors to bring tons of luggages.

well for starters there are a few questions here
...and many were answered. About the only question left is why. Does that even matter at this point?

If this was labeled a hate crime or anything else you would have a very different opinion

Does it ever matter?
And the question of "why?" is probably more a question of "if he wasn't a terrorist or lunatic what happened here?"
Quote
Why did he do it? We were told it wasn't terrorism, even though ISIS claimed credit. Okay, then what was it? Was he crazy? But then how did a crazy person manage to orchestrate something like this? And why hasn't a single person from Paddock's personal life come forward and called him crazy? All we heard was that Paddock was a normal, rational guy. Dylann Roof was obviously disturbed. Adam Lanza had clear mental issues. James Holmes is a nutcase. The Orlando killer was a terrorist. Every single one of these guys fits into one of two categories: terrorist or lunatic. We're told Stephen Paddock was neither of those things. What was he? Why did he do it?

Were these answered:
Quote
How did he set up a kill room in a major American hotel without anyone noticing?

Quote
Why did the timeline of the shooting change three times? What's the current version of the timeline? First they told us a "hero" security guard named Jesus Campos stopped the shooting while it was happening. Then they told us Campos himself was actually shot six minutes before Paddock opened fire on the crowd. Then the hotel told us Campos was shot 40 seconds before Paddock began his massacre.
....
There were gun shots being fired in a crowded hotel. Shouldn't it have been immediately obvious exactly when all of this started?
Quote
And why did it take them a month to disclose that an officer did discharge his weapon inside Paddock's room? They insisted for weeks that no officer fired a shot. Did they really not know? Or were they withholding the information? Why?

And why did Paddock wire $100,000 to the Philippines before the shooting?
And what happened to his missing hard drive? Did they ever find it? And why did he get rid of it? What's on it?
We're told Paddock had an escape plan. How could he have ever imagined that he might be able to escape? Did he have some help? Or was he supposed to have help but it fell through?
Why did he stop shooting after ten minutes if he had so many guns and so much ammunition?
Why did he stop shooting yet make no attempt to escape?
And what's the deal with Jesus Campos? Why did he leave the country immediately after the attack? Why did he refuse to do interviews with any news outlets until suddenly appearing on Ellen, of all places?
Quote
Why haven't we seen any video footage of Stephen Paddock whatsoever? Paddock carried out his attack in one of the most monitored cities in the world. You can scarcely find a nook or cranny of Las Vegas that isn't under video surveillance. Yet not even one second of Paddock video has leaked?
....
 Not even any video of Paddock at one of the many casinos he frequented? We're told Paddock spent a lot of time in Vegas. There must be literally hundreds of hours of footage of him spread out between dozens of hotels and casinos. None of it has leaked? All of it was confiscated immediately?

At this point isn't the most logical answer is he just snapped? By doesn't matter I mean they just about ruled out everything else.

When?
It's not like he just picked up a gun one day and went out and shot a bunch of people. This was obviously planned over time.

Was his behavior leading up to this consistent with that of someone who "just snapped?" (if there is such a thing)
