“I pledge my alliance to (ISIS leader) abu bakr al Baghdadi..may Allah accept me,” Mateen wrote in one post early Sunday morning. “The real muslims will never accept the filthy ways of the west” …“You kill innocent women and children by doing us airstrikes..now taste the Islamic state vengeance.”
Mateen’s social media accounts were taken down before they could be widely viewed by the public, but Johnson’s committee investigators have uncovered some or all of them. The senator has also written a letter to Facebook executives expressing concern about Mateen’s postings and asking for more information on his activities.
“It is my understanding that Omar Mateen used Facebook before and during the attack to search for and post terrorism-related content,” read Johnson’s letter. “According to information obtained by my staff, five Facebook accounts were apparently associated with Omar Mateen.”

Good point. sorry
Sure you would.
In that situation, you’re going to get bullets in the chest anyway, whether you rush him or not. If they had rushed him, while he was changing clips or playing with his phone, they probably could have stopped him.
Worse to me were the police, the guy is in there alone, guarding 6 doors and posting on facebook, yet no one could figure how to take him out for three hours?
“Men wearing dresses and high heels are at a fighting disadvantage. That’s why we women depend on guys to protect us.”
Come on now. There’s no better everyday ladies’ weapon than the spike heel shoe. :-)
Are we ever going to learn why the muslim murderer was given “space to destroy” for three hours?
this makes no sense. How could he be shooting and FaceBooking at the same time?
He’d shoot 30 people, post some updates, and then go back to shooting?
I imagine he would have been easy prey even for a gun carrying drunk while he was in Tweeting mode.
I thought the bar attender might have a shotgun underneath the bar, ready for something like this.
Schools I can see not having guns (yet), but a bar?
No kidding. Better to die on your feet than your knees.
this is standard islam rhetoric.
I think he was holding hostages at some point.
“this makes no sense. How could he be shooting and FaceBooking at the same time?”
Three HOURS of shooting people.....
He was given “space to destroy”.
"...Diving on hand grenades, pilots guiding crippled aircraft away from innocents..."
With posts like this, it is even harder to figure out how the “Moslem attacks gay club where he was a frequent customer” became Christians’ fault.
Why didn’t they throw a stapler or what not like they tell people in schools to do. That would have stopped the shooting, right. /s
But this had noting to do with Islam, right?
Ban Facebook. Sarc/
Leftist and PC mega fail.
is the resident a jihadist?
Its the only thing that makes any sense because his decisions make no sense in America even today.
“These kinds of threads often attract the keyboard commandos who have the whole tactical situation figured-out from the comfort of their sofas.”
And the f¥ck faces still can’t find a motive. Deliberately protecting the ideology of our replacements.
One guy said that there was a five minute pause in the shooting and they hoped that the cops had gotten the guy but their hopes were dashed when he started firing again.
Maybe he paused to reload and tweet.
