During a press conference Sunday morning, FBI spokesman Danny Banks officially classified the shootings at Pulse Nightclub as an "act of terrorism."

The FBI, along with numerous other agencies, was investigating the shooting and it was not clear if it was an act of domestic or foreign terrorism.

Cross linking a couple of other threads about the incident.

“The UK Daily Mail is headlining it as Islamist extremist, jihadist attack.”

And the comments were the usual ‘no one needs a gun’ drivel. The Brits seem more obsessed with Americans owning guns than concerned about the people who were killed.

Because Malls do not frisk us for concealed carry fire arms.

Correct! Before he makes a statement, he has to figure a way to blame it on Trump.

Gays / Liberals / progressives better wake up to the fact that the Jihadi hates them and their lifestyles with a passion that is obsessive. They haven't realized this simple fact yet, that if the head cutters ran the show they would be the first to be beheaded, rounded up put in cages and set on fire alive etc.

"You do realize they wish to eliminate all your friends who are LGBT, Feminist, Atheist, Socialist, your dog, non-Muslims, and Liberals, right?"

But if we could only just find them a job, there would be no more terrorism........(said in my best liberal voice)

Actually, this was reported by FOX because it was their reporter who asked about a connection to Islamic terrorism

Yep,it was Steve Doosey's son who asked the question, that must not be asked.

How long will they hide the killers name?

Until they can think of how to blame on Trump, or his supporters.

A crazy white guy with condeferare flag car tag kills nine people and the governor bans the flag. Then Rick Scott can ban overt muslim symbols.

How dare islamics attack our most precious and valuable citizens! Maybe now Oburka and the RATs will get serious about terrorism. After all this wasnt just a bunch of old white conservatives being killed. These people were important.

’ Oh yeah...you mess with a fagot, you get terrorism right now..!!! Murder a bunch solders and it’s just, “move on, nothing to see here...” ‘

Truth.

“We consider this an act of terrorism”

MARK MY WORDS - There will be a ‘dear colleague’ letter sent out by the Justice Department to all of the yocals, telling them that ONLY THE FEDERAL government can declare a crime scene to be terrorist, and that if the yocals want to keep their goodies from the feds flowing (license plate tracking, cell phone sniffing, easy access to assets for forfeiture, excess military hardware, etc.), they need to STOP CALLING THESE CRIMES TERRORISM.

Pretty much the same thing they’ve done to force open girl’s locker rooms to perverts.

Gay bar. That puts an interesting spin on it.

——not clear if it was an act of domestic or foreign terrorism-—

there is no difference

to fail to understand that Jihad has no borders is evidence of police incompetence

[antidisestablishment]

All nightclubs are gun-free zones. Guns and alcohol are not generally a good mix. Even the old saloons had gun checking.

A white Asian?

I suspect many of the witness are wishing they could be anonymous.

“Because Malls do not frisk us for concealed carry fire arms.”

Two things I don’t do:

I don’t go to malls at Christmas. If I do, I don’t not carry.
