Man Who Worshiped At Same Mosque As Orlando Gunman Reported Him To FBI
CBS News ^ | June 21, 2016

Posted on 06/22/2016 6:41:25 AM PDT by detective

A man who worshiped at the same mosque as the Orlando gunman says he never heard him say anything particularly hateful or homophobic, but he still reported him to the FBI.

“The fact that this person was a Muslin I knew… very disturbing,” Mohammad Malik said.

Malik attends the same mosque in Fort Pierce that Omar Mateen frequented.

Intent and commitment.

“One would think that most FBI agents would have already resigned.”

I suspect many have retired. Some have resigned.

What that does is ensure the department is more corrupted as their replacements are certain to be more politically correct.

Better for agents to stay in place and be reliable sources of information than to resign.

Of course, the FBI has been highly political since it came under Hoover, and it has a long pattern of being unconcerned with Constitutional rights.

He was reported on AFTER the FBI already had him on their radar because of his communications with a known terrorist.

You calling them complicated does not mean they are complicated.

They are straight forward. You accuse of a lie you concoct.

Even liars can fear.

FBI Director James Comey, “a man of the highest character and integrity respected by Democrat and Republican alike.”

I’m highly suspicious of anyone respected by a Democrat, and moderately suspicious of anyone respected by a Republican. ;)

If no one else has their eye on the ball, I'd say your observation is spot on.

Get ready for quite a ride with Donald Trump then. He’s going to make earnest cleanup attempts, but he needs a broom to do it with, and that puts the broom in a powerful position.

Oh geez....go on off and believe what you want. We differ. Get over it. I didn’t call you a liar - I told you what I thought. Take it or leave it contrarian.

By the way, bombs is metaphorical, in case you did not catch the obvious meaning.

You called it convoluted. It was not convoluted, it was straight forward. You implied that I was a liar.

What is the difference between “attending” and “frequenting” a mosque?

Obama only "frequented" Jeremiah Wright's church, so he got a pass on being radicalized by his sermons.

No. Convoluted doesn’t say “liar”....it says different opinion more disposed to the complicated. I said “simple” explanation is the best IMO. Take it how you will.

No, it is a pejorative term that clearly implies evasion.

To the crooked, God appears crooked.

Take that as you will. The result between you and God is up to God, not you.

FBI: Famous But Incompetent.

Omama is out to destroy this country and all federal agencies are now a disaster. The FBI used to be recognized as one of the top criminal investagive agencies in the world. Now the Kestone Cops could do so much better than what the FBI has become.

Anybody with a little common sense can see that Omar Mateen's father had contacts in the Omama administration and was able to call off the feds whenever his son was in trouble. It is so obvious that he should have been arrested but the Feds were told to leave him alone.

Your “simple” theory has as an indispensable part “Islam is indomitable.” Which means Islam has you right where it wants you — intimidated.

I am not ready to twist my back in bending to accommodate a more complicated explanation. I subscribe more to Occam’s Razor more than I do convoluted subterfuge and mystique.

I'm inclined to agree, the most likely explanation is that all these filthy people have dirt on each other.
Like it even matters, any thinking person knows that every government employee has to answer to the one who has the goods on him/her/it.

< I really don’t trust reports like this. Neither from the FBI nor a ‘concerned’ Muslim. Most certainly, I’d not trust a first report of this by the media. I’d have to see indisputable proof of it to believe it, frankly.

I don't either for one second. This is just moderate Muslims don't support radical terrorists propaganda BS so they can get the camel's nose farther under the tent.

It sounds like a lot of people were suspicious of him, and the FBI protected him.

He was a security guard working for a government contractor. This is what being fully vetted looks like, for anyone paying attention. Think about this when they talk about “vetting” the million immigrants they are bringing in from the war zone.

Evil can’t keep up forever. Ultimately it trips itself up.

You can resort to Biblical rhetoric if you want. I did nothing to castigate you or your belief other than to say I believed in something much simpler.

Lastly, please give me a link to any reputable online dictionary source that says “convoluted” is the equivalent of a pejorative evasion.
