Warning: paranoid rant ahead:
If nothing else, this article makes me reluctant to have open discussions here about anything related to video poker.
I mean, does such a thorough investigation portend unwanted scrutiny of our favorite hobby and all who play it?
Is "The Law" or "big brother" going to go on a witch hunt, either publicly or even worse, surreptitiously, for people who fit some part this kook's profile?

Only tens of thousands of us play serious video poker.
Here's a thought: Maybe it's only you lurkers who never post anything have something to worry about - Paddock was intensely private.
It's a shame that the microscope might turn on our little corner of the world playground.
There's plenty of paranoia in this group already - I don't see a lot of open discussions or trip reports. Maybe our worries about good plays being outed, casino employees figuring out that who of us might be advantage players or that the IRS will audit anyone who writes about a profitable trip will become petty concerns compared to the possibility of the FBI monitoring our posts for key word usage, in their misguided search for future crazed lunatics.
And, if you don't fit the new profile? Well, that part makes you suspect too: Paddock didn't fit previous mass shooter profiles either.
What do you think? Dare you reply?
I don't know why, but this classic movie comes to mind:
