The FBI has found no evidence so far that Omar Mateen, who killed 49 people and wounded more than 53 at the Pulse nightclub in Orlando, chose the popular establishment because of its gay clientele, said U.S law enforcement officials.

“While there can be no denying the significant impact on the gay community, the investigation hasn’t revealed that he targeted pulse because it was a gay club,” a U.S. law enforcement official said.

Have they figured out he was a jihadi yet?
He called the media and police to tell them he was killing for Allah and they still don’t know why he did it.

This is all obviously impossible. I have it on (((good authority))) that Mateen was a self-hating gay man driven to homophobic rage by the anti-gay climate of hatred created in this country by Christians, Donald Trump and the Koch Brothers.

And they still don’t have a motive.

The Moslems will kill women and children, but it’s a greater honor to kill males.

He went there because it was packed with drunken males with no weapons.

He didn’t go there to kill homosexuals.

He went there to kill American males.

Well no sh!t dick tracy! Any FBI agent who doesn’t have their head firmly planted up their PC ass could have told you that.

But then again, our muslim POSOTUS outright punishes any infidels in the US government who dare slander the prophet.

I read that this gay club, where he previously met men in order to have anal sex, is many miles out of the way from his house.

He made a special trip.

In the name of political correctness the FBI is squandering years of good will built up since their founding.

I for one no longer believe anything the FBI has to say on any subject. They have shown that they will bend to their political masters. It may have always been that way but they have not been so obvious before.

Martha Stewart’s crime was that she was not a Clinton.

The editors at Wikipedia reluctantly added it to the page Islamic Terrorist Attacks, but only reluctantly after a bitter argument that spread to the press, that was highlighting the serious problems that Wikipedia has with political bias and political correctness.

In a related post, Director Comey found no evidence to support the ugly runor that the President is from Chicago.

Well that part IS true.

He may have lived in Chicago for a while, but he’s “from” Kenya LOL.

"No evidence"?

You mean like Comey's "No evidence" ?

Maybe they should check Hillary's emails...

People have a hard time remembering that disparaging contradiction of justice.

Having spent much time in the Middle East, Jordan, Oman, Kuwait, Egypt...I can assure you of two things....the Muslims hate LGBT folks and they hate Sub-Sahara Africans. Kenya & company still ply in the slave trade using men, women & female children as slaves, as they have done for the last 400-500 years!!! If there is an LGBT casting their vote for Hillary Clinton....they gotta be high on reefer, booze or just simply insane!!!

ATTN: LGBTQ people
SUB: FBI Pulse report

Hey LGBTQ folks, your Democrat masters determined that anti-gay feelings did not influence the Pulse nightclub attack, huh?
Well go ahead and keep welcoming thousands of unvetted potential jihadists into the country. Let us know how that benefits LGBTQ citizens.

It had nothing to do with the fact that he was Muslim either.

Work place violence. Undoubtedly Bush’s fault.

The irony is as thick as Hillary’s fake “Southern” accent.

Martha Stewart’s crime was that she was not a Clinton.

Or, apparently, a Mohammedan.

In his testimony before the House Committee, Comey stressed that while Clinton was neither formally deponed, sworn, nor even recorded, "lying to us is still a crime."

That's interesting, because in yesterday's document dump concerning its investigation, the Fumbling Bumbling Incompetents admitted that during the course of its ten month "observation" of the Orlando Shooter [let his name be forgotten and erased by God] which included several interviews, the shooter lied to the FBI on several occasions.

So, let's get this straight: the FBI will doggedly pursue a woman who shows people how to properly scoop melon-balls or craft florets out of butter if she lies to them, but it will not bestir itself to charge a suspect with a history of demonstrably violent intentions.
