And it was also a gun free zone which worked out pretty good considering how many people were there and only one brought in a gun.
The narrative will be changed.
PS- How did he manage to sneak in an AR-15?
‘Islamic extremist’! Words you will NOT hear from the lyin’ king. The great unifier. Guns? Pen, phone.
This Muslim guy is more lethal than AIDS... but joking aside the Muslims get to rack up more body-count in their eternal Jihad.
Trump will clean up with this as the Left and Hillary try to spin it with patently false memes....
“The gunman was born to Afghan parents”
Another spawn of Satan.
And you better believe, right now, this second, hundreds of muzzies are trying to figure out how they can exceed that total and set a new record.
Unless and until RADICAL ISLAM is blamed and brought to the forefront, until we recognize the problem, this BS will continue.
Trump is now going to win the presidency in a landslide.
Multiculturalism is our strength!
River of Blood!
Man up!
I’m glad they refer to him as a “US citizen” and not an American. They are not the same. US citizens are something the government creates. Americans are born that way.
**US citizen Omar Mateen**
US born or naturalized.
The watering down starts with this.
At least we have the British Press to cut past the spin and deflection of our own domestic media and call the spade a spade in the first sentence.
A vest that looked like a bomb. I don’t think so. Too hard to make in this country.
Yes, Trump will win huge with this for a few months.
“US Citizen”?
Yeah, sure, Omar.
It’s up to 50 dead? Damn muzzie monster!
