Orlando Gunman Was Gay, Says Former Police-Academy Classmate
NY Magazine ^ | June 14, 2016 | Claire Landsbaum

When Omar Mateen — a 29-year-old security guard — opened fire at Pulse nightclub in Orlando on Sunday, killing 49 people and wounding 53, it wasn't his first time at the club. In fact, according to at least four regular patrons, Mateen had visited the club several times before, and one — Chris Callen, a drag queen who performs at Pulse under the name Kristina McLaughlin — said Mateen had been going there "for at least three years."

Additional reports suggest Mateen had created profiles on multiple gay-dating apps: Grindr, Jack'd, and Adam for Adam, to name a few. And a former police-academy classmate of Mateen's said he believed Mateen was gay and had asked him out on a date. "We went to a few gay bars with him, and I was not out at the time, so I declined his offer," the classmate told the Palm Beach Post. He went on, "He just wanted to fit in and no one liked him. He was always socially awkward."

Look at Lot.

What kind of an a$$hole offers his daughters to a mob of insane/homosexual perverts?

Looking for sanity in the culture of the reprobately minded is sort of pointless.... which is why manufacturing that state of mind was a strategic objective:

The daughters had husbands in Sodom and Gomorrah. Yes, I know the daughters had their way with Lot.

Following Leftist logic -up until now ALL islamic jihadi terrorist attavks have been carried out by self-loathing heterosexuals?

Additionakky, UNLESS, someone claims to have had homo sex with the perp OR someone claims the per self-identified as homosexual -HE was no homo! Going to a 'gay' bar means nothing.

As an aside it would be interesting to find out the orientation of ALL at the club that night or any other night...
