but it is the combo with Islam that made this situation nuclear.... without Islam it the self-hatred would have remained inward, or at most a murder-suicide with a lover but not this mass murder motivated by ISLAM
Except that he also looked into attacking a theme park.
So the self hating muslimhomo theory sinks.
I wonder if ISIS is going to back down a little from their high praise of him as a mighty soldier of the American Caliph? I can almost here the “Oops!” coming out of Raghead central.
OK, so the new theme song will be he was a self-hating gay who was forced to kill because of Republican and Christian hatred. Got it.
What will be ignored, of course, is Islam walks hand and hand with homosexuality. Always has, always will. Dancing boys, anyone??
Visiting or casing?
"In Orlando, the Los Angeles Times reported that Mateen attended the Pulse nightclub possibly as many as a dozen times before the rampage. Kevin West said he had messaged Mateen back and forth over a year’s time on the gay dating app Jack’d but never met him until he saw Mateen crossing the street about 1 a.m. Sunday. “He walked directly past me. I said, ‘Hey,’ and he turned and said, ‘Hey,’” and nodded his head, West said. “I could tell by the eyes.”
Just the mere idea that, after exchanging messages for a freaking year, West met the shooter the very first time exactly before the massacre, is incredulous.
In politically incorrect times, the connection between latent/suppressed homosexuality and mass murder was often made. The Left may drag out this theory once again to “explain” the Orlando massacre and to “absolve” Islamism as a motive.
And the FBI wanted to cover up this fact based on what his ex-wife said.
Evidently banging the boys is big in the old country - looks like he’d have been better off if he returned to his roots:

But the real lesson here is whatever the gripe, the default position for too many of these jerks inundated in Islamic hatred is to take out as many infidels as possible.
self hating gay bisexual, you mean Obama?
I’m not ready to buy the “he was gay” meme. It seems way too much like a push by the media to divert attention from his islamist motives and paint this as a hate crime which can be solved by banning guns.
FROM THE COMMENTS SECTION AT YOUR SOURCE —
He most likely was in the closet but due to the pressure and restrictions of his culture and religion (there’s that word again) could not live the life he truly wanted.So instead he lived the life dictated by his culture and religion taking out his frustrations (as his ex-wife,a 2nd “mystery wife” and others have acknowledged).
Then came the Orlando tragedy taking his frustration out on innocent people.I have traveled extensively for business over the years to Pakistan,Iran,Iraq,Afghanistan etc before the conflicts and/or when it was not a question of safety as it is today.The number of sexual overtures and direct propositions from men was mind-boggling.
I did not even consider going through with any of them as I didn’t feel like winding up either diseased,dead or on You Tube praising Allah before they sliced my throat.There are also several on-line surveys that monitor hits on porn websites regardless of their content.The majority of hits come from the countries I mentioned above with the addition of India and Bangladesh both countries with restrictive cultures and religious beliefs.So as the saying goes if it walks like a duck,quacks like a duck,looks like a duck then guess it is a duck.
What people fail to understand is just how widespread and normalized homosexuality is among muslim men, especially Afghan men.
The left is desperately trying to portray the attack as anything but Islamic terrorism. If it turns out this guy was gay, that dispels their argument that this was an anti-gay hate crime, and not terrorism.
I read a few comments on a similar LA Times article. They were saying this proves that the guy was not Muslim, just a self-hating gay and it’s all because of right-wing gun carrying nuts.
I’ve always thought Muslims were a little light in the loafers.
The media got their marching orders. This is a hate crime. All the late night shows were doing editorial comments last night about the hatred and that people should be able to be who they want to be and love each other.
These people are idiots. Do not believe this guy was gay. The Boston bombers, that he mentioned, weren’t gay. Alahu Akbar is not a gay thing. They’ll do anything to change the subject: An American hating muslim killed 49 people.... who happen to be gay.
I guess next they’ll start saying every one who dies in Chicago are gay so every weekend Chicago has a bunch of hate crime murders.
Plenty of evidence to show this terrorist was a radical ISLAMIST
That he was possibly a self-hating homosexual only distracts from the real reason. From 911 to Saturday, he was a ticking time bomb Jihadi
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.
Orlando shooting was a terrorist attack. To spin it any other way in an insult to America.
I never considered the “gay + Muslim + rejection” angle. Wow, what an explosive combination.
So this was as much a revenge slaughter on a community that didn’t accept him as well as his religion compelling him to do so.
I’m sure it was very justified in his mind.
