Mateen was part of ISIS. His father was part of Taliban.
A married man with a 3 yea old son, Mateen regularly drove 85 miles to be at this gay club. He also was a regular on gay dating sites. He also was a jihadist.
The article has a lot of good information not reported in the MSM.
I am going to take omar’s word for it. He said he did it for islam.
Two forms of mental illness - Islam and gay - in one sick and conflicted person. Not that this excuses the Islamic terror. It is what it is. They’re all mental cases of one kind or another.
He would not be the first in-the-closet guy leading a double life.
Does anybody think he might have been trying to gain their trust by showing up there, so that when he decided to pull the trigger, he’d be allowed inside and they wouldn’t object to his coming in?
The media can spin it all they want but he wouldn’t have done it if not for islam.
Well, this gets the left out of their dilemma over which “protected class”, muslime or homosexual, they will defend in this case. As a gay jihadi, Mateen can get DOUBLE “protected class” status! Sweet.
Well, the focus goes to the murderer’s sexuality instead of where it belongs.
Barack Hussein Obama.
The people who terrorize and murder innocent people are a bit crazy from the start. ISIS is a federation of such deranged people who are attracted to this death and torture cult. They use a perversion of Islamic theology to mold their conscience and try to believe that they will be “rewarded” in some sort of afterlife for their killing. ISIS and its followers are sick, irrational, dangerous people who like other death cults in history must be brutally and mercilessly eliminated. An effective response begins with shedding politically correct blinders. Sorry Obama but it is a perversion of Islamic theology, begun by the Wahhabi that is at the root of this barbaric terrorism performed by crazies. Those crazies include deranged homosexuals, immigrants and home grown lowlifes. There ought not be protection on the basis of gender, race, sexual identification, religion or politics. Its troubling that the FBI told the wife of the Orlando killer not to reveal to the media that he was a homosexual. Time to take off the politically correct blinders and act effectively.
OK, now another possible connection I saw yesterday. It was in a Twitter post from KGNC radio in Amarillo TX.
@KGNCAM @oreillyfactor Orlando shooter’s FB page. In the middle as a friend, the killer of Christina Grimmie https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Ck30A6XUoAAMlGd.jpg https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Ck30A6eUkAA9WDV.jpg
I requested their source and have yet to get a reply.
This flies in the face of what police have said about Grimmie’s murder the day before.
So, If this is about a gay connection, some here on FR previously made the comment that they suspected the Grimmie’s murderer was possibly gay. (appearance)
The coincidence between the two events make you want to question what we’ve been told about them. No connection?
All indications at this point are “closet case who snapped”.
Probably just a reaction to some offensive YouTube video somewhere.
As he was butchering these people he was yelling “Alau Akbar” not “death to gays”. That tells you all you need to know.
BUT his nice Father said this was the motivation...did he lie?
This article has some information, but we still don’t know anything with the second and current wife.
Is the relationship anything close to the San Bernardino dead terrorists couple? Didn’t they have a young child too?
Actually, I’ve been wondering if the father’s statement about his son being upset seeing two men kissing might ultimately be right. If he was in a relationship with one of them.
Are there any gay lovers left to tell the tale? If that was his story there should be.
He was a gay jihadi who knew the layout of this club, and that is the reason why he murdered people there. If you want to kill a large number of people, you are not going to do it in an unfamiliar place.
The Orlando Sentinel article linked said he was scouting Disney in Orlando, probably to do an attack.
Have any Pulse regulars come forward yet to say “OMG, I think I did that guy!”?
