ISIS has claimed responsibility for the June 12 early-morning terror attack on a gay nightclub in Orlando, Florida. Terrorist Omar Mateen murdered at least 49 people and wounded 53. He held hostages for three hours, until a police SWAT team killed him.
Mainstream media have focused on Orlando's proximity to Disneyland. A war is on, you idiots. Look toward nearby Tampa and MacDill Air Force Base, U.S. Central Command headquarters. U.S. CENTCOM is currently supporting anti-ISIS coalition forces in Iraq that are engaged in combat operations against the Islamic State. Welcome to Battlefield America.
The Orlando attack adds to the deadly list of Islamist militant terror attacks committed since 2009 on targets in U.S. territory. 2009 was the year President Barack Obama dispensed with the Global War on Terror and began describing U.S. counter-terror operations as an Overseas Contingency Operation. He was strategically stupid, but that was the political narrative he simply had to sell. Remember Bush Lied, People Died?
Well, Obama lied and Americans continue to die. At least the president didn't call this slaughter "work place violence" or some other feckless politically correct euphemism. Though he called Orlando "an act of terror and an act of hate" he still can't bring himself to name Islamist militant terrorism as the source, much less the cause of the attack. Instead, he insisted we have "no definitive assessment on the motivation" for Orlando's massacre.
SIS media arm AMAQ disagreed: "The armed attack that targeted a gay night club in the city of Orlando...which left over 100 people dead or injured was carried out by an Islamic State fighter." On June 13, an ISIS radio outlet called Mateen "one of the soldiers of the caliphate in America." ISIS regards Mateen's nightclub slaughter as an act of war -- war as waged by the Islamic State. Remember, Islamic State thugs rape Yazidi women, execute Iraqi soldiers, behead Libyan Christians and burn Jordanian pilots alive.
Moreover, Mateen confirmed he fought for ISIS. Before attacking, he called Orlando's 911 services and pledged allegiance to the Islamic State and its leader, Caliph Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi. He also mentioned the Boston Marathon bombers.
It takes narrow, politically blinded minds to believe Mateen perpetrated the Orlando slaughter because he's suffered micro-aggressions dealt by Islamophobes or the U.S. Constitution gives American citizens the right to bear arms.
Mateen waged war on America. The Caliph was his commander. He was a traitor -- use that word. An Orlando nightclub -- down the road from CENTCOM headquarters -- was his battleground. His premeditated massacre was another Islamist militant terrorist operation against America conducted with the same war aims as the 2013 Boston terror bombing.
The FBI called the Orlando massacre an act of terrorism. However, its investigators have not yet determined Mateen's precise motive. The FBI's qualification strikes me as a weaseling political kowtow to Obama. Mateen was a "known wolf," an individual identified as a potential violent terrorist. The FBI investigated him in 2013 and 2014. Other police and security agencies were aware of him.
Could the Orlando attack have been prevented?
Yes. Major Nidal Hasan's November 2009 Fort Hood, Texas attack that left 13 dead could have been prevented as well. Hasan was a known security risk who frequently expressed harsh anti-American views and was a committed follower of Imam Anwar al-Awlaki, like Mateen, a U.S.-born traitor.
Mateen and Hasan demonstrate that politically correct regulatory strictures and mainstream media nostrums stymie effective police surveillance of potential terrorists and citizen participation in defense against terror attacks on U.S. soil. Say the "wrong" thing -- meaning you disagree with the "politically correct" enforcers -- even give one of these censorious leftist puritanical clowns reason to believe you think "wrong" and, presto, you're a bigot, racist, genderist, etcetera.
That's got to end. It's also time for President Obama to admit the Global War on Terror is a global war and America is one battlefield. That will remove at least one politically correct stupidity, which hinders our war effort.
Preparation of the battlefield ALERT!
Jihad rolls.
It is horrific that all of these people were slaughtered. It does not matter whether the victims are gay or not. Is this massacre somehow more significant than others because of the sexual preferences of the victims?
It is not the colors of gay pride which should be illuminating buildings. It's red, white, and blue that we should see!
Should people look back at the year 1972, they might find that a ‘surge’ of mohammedan violence exploded across the world.
Meanwhile, back here in the good ol’ U.S. of A., the media was banging the drum 24/7/365 of all the violence happening in a little place called South Vietnam,drowning out the other international violence.
In that year, there was the mass murder at the Munich Olympics, that cruise ship in the Meditteranean Sea, bombings in downtown Bangkok, Thailand; Manila, Phillipine Islands; Malaysia and Israel, all done by Mohammedans.
I am a witness of the Bangkok bombing.
It was said, then, that the master plan was to have Mohammedans take over the world, through the furtherance of their religion, and the annihilation of all those that stand in their way.
That was 44 years ago, and their master plan is still the standard operating procedure this year.
Long Live The Republic, and Happy Flag Day, America!!
I’m getting sick of how the bobbleheads in Obama’s “national media” continue to refer to these murdering Islamic bastards as being “lone wolfs”. What do these retards want? Platoons of ISIS boys in their ninja costumes marching down Main Street waving their flags and carrying RPGs? “Lone wolfs” or not, they’re damned murdering Islamic terrorists. Twenty “lone wolfs” killed thousands of Americans on 09-11-01. The DNC toads in the “media” need to get their heads out of their asses and get with the program. Islam is at war with us whether we decide to participate or not. Forty nine Americans were slaughtered. The “media” clowns need to get a clue.
I went to a Stand With Orlando rally last night. A tremendous crowd — 750 people, on such short notice -— especially for Johnson City, TN.
The MC told the crowd “Today, we’re all gay— today we’re all LGBT”: an identity of perversion, and I do not believe in that. The song chosen to warm up the crowd was “Imagine” (”Imagine there’s no country -— no possessions -— no religion —— no Heaven”): a creed of denials, and I do not believe in that, either.
I believe the Word of God will stand forever, and His Word is what I had on my sign: “Thou Shalt Not Kill.” And I got a lot of “Thanks-you’s” and huge hugs from mascara’ed boys gone silly and sloppy women gone butch. It all goes to show that, despite what divides us, it’s possible to share a degree of respect and understanding.
And you know what? I believe in that.
What you describe doing was true evangelization. Good on you.
The US Constitution does not “give” people rights.
Sheesh...

Western Civilization its “leaders” and peoples cannot even defend themselves. The people of the West have totally surrendered to the philosophy of eating, drinking, drugging, copulating, evacuating the bowels and snoring. Such a people will not long live free or even survive. Like brute beasts fit only to be destroyed.
His words are “Thou shall not do murder.”

I only had 60" maximum width, however, and I wanted the words to be both good and legible, as well as instantly recognizable as Biblical.
"Thou shalt not kill" fit the bill.
Without conveying pacifism, which ain't where I'm at..
Thanks to social media, you can add "taking and posting selfies" to this repertoire. Otherwise you're about right about the limits of our reality show culture's horizons.
