No mention in the article that it was a muslim jihadist terrorist murderer.

Fox?

We know he was a regular at that club (he was gay) and he was a Mooselimb.

They wanted to leave the implication that it was MAGA.

BBC in 2016.

“FBI officials say the 29-year-old, who was killed by police, appeared to “have leanings towards” radical Islamist ideology, although it was not clear whether the attack was a case of domestic or international terrorism.

Mateen made emergency 911 calls shortly beforehand in which he reportedly stated his allegiance to Islamic State.”

These types do their best to indicate their motives because they know the authorities will deny them.

The memorial is on the taxpayer dime, as well as the property purchase by the city.

“In 2025, the City of Orlando took over plans to build a permanent memorial at the Pulse nightclub site to honor those killed and hurt in the shooting”

…why?

Muslim terrorist/perp who wanted gays dead is the motive. That is verboten especially when the local news reports on it. They are completely obsessed with the “memorial.” Also, a lot of money was raised for the “memorial” that disappeared into a “design company” who drew up some rudimentary plans on a cocktail napkin. Mark my words, more money will be wasted/lost and the “memorial” if ever completed, will be a disappointing eyesore.

And let’s not forget the Orlando Police surrounded the place during the muslim terrorist’s attack, while people were still being slaughtered, and just waited around until the victims blead out and died. Bunch of cowards.

And one more thing. It was outside the Pulse location where the crosswalks were repeatedly colored with the rainbow colors (fag version) and police arrested several people over several weeks for painting the road. It’s all an embarrassment to the city of Orlando.

It was an Islamic terrorist attack, not a mass shooting.

…why?”

They took it over because fags were raising money to create a memorial and the money just vanished. And Buddy Dyer, the longtime democrat mayor, just wants the prestige and power of controlling some more land in the city.

Dyer is the mayor who decided on his own a few years ago to remove a civil war memorial statue just because he could and no one would stop him. Oh, and years ago his 17 year old kid crashed a brand new Lexus into a house one night and claimed the brakes went out. No one ever heard about that incident again. He isn’t running for election so Orlando will likely get an unqualified black lesbian mayor next. LOL.

The shooter was a radical Muslim, and his father was an FBI informant. Now, why aren’t those details stressed in the article?

Amazingly, he was employed as a security screener at the state courthouse in Ft. Pierce, Florida. He was notorious there for disrespectful conduct toward women.

They also avoid the fact that Mateen was a regular patron at this club. He was a homosexual.
