All it means is that he was a self-loathing gay ISIS terrorist.
The necessary data is in. He considered himself a terrorist, committed a mass murder and is on record pledging himself to ISIS. This is indisputable.
Typical neolib.
All it means is that he was a self-loathing gay ISIS terrorist.
Mateen was married at least once, to a woman named Sitora Yusufiy, who said Sunday that he was unstable and abusive during their brief marriage. Yusufiy, who is now dating a Brazilian man, also sat for an interview with Brazilian TV Monday. Speaking in Portuguese, her boyfriend said in the interview that she had described Mateen as having “gay tendencies” and said his dad had called him gay in front of her on several occasions.
The boyfriend also said Yusufiy told the FBI her ex-husband was unstable and that she did not believe he was part of a terrorist group.
Yet ISIS hates gay people so how was he ISIS?![]()
because he killed 50 gay people in the name of isis?
He pledged allegiance to them, visited radical mosques and hung out with radical Islamists. Case closed.
he called in and pledged allegiance to ISIS during the middle of his murdering spree, but but but he has been drunk and may have liked penis so nope, can not be an Muslim terrorist.
Taqiyya - Saying something that isn't true as it relates to the Muslim iden y.
Kitman - Lying by omission.
Tawriya - Intentionally creating a false impression.
Muruna - 'Blending in' by setting aside some practices of Islam or Sharia in order to advance others
This is possible as well. Iirc one of the Bataclan masterminds was frequenting gay clubs too, so who knows if it's some last days of disco before killing people or if ISIS has an inordinate amount of gays.
So effective that no government has ever issued them to their military.
He killed people becaude he was a repressed .
If a heady combination of shame and sexuality were part of what drove Mateen’s decisions that morning, how is that to be policed? How can we, to borrow the language of counterterrorism, ‘eradicate’ the ‘scourge’ of internalised phobia? Of a feeling that one’s desires are dirty and humiliating? You can’t easily make a homeland secure against self-loathing.
Well, we now know that Omar Mateen had, at the very least, a sustained interest in sexuality. He wasn’t a stranger at Pulse. One regular, Ty Smith, told the LA Times he had seen him there on at least 12 occasions. “Sometimes he would go over in the corner and sit and drink by himself, and other times he would get so drunk he was loud and belligerent”. Note that Smith chose the word “belligerent” rather than “bigoted”. Angry, prone to lashing out. Not, as far as has been reported, spitting phobic slurs. You could argue that he was engaged in reconnaissance. But why get drunk (something that is forbidden in Islam) if your aim is to scope out a field of operations?
hen there’s his use of the dating app, Jack’d. It describes itself as the “largest and fastest growing dating app for guys looking to meet guys. It’s fast, free and fun!” What was it doing on Mateen’s phone? A means of getting his blood up? Enraging himself so he’d be better able to fulfill his jihadist destiny? In that case, why message Pulse regular, Kevin West “on and off for a year”?

When asked why she thought he went regularly to a gay club, Yusufiy told CNN “When we had gotten married he confessed to me about his past that was recent at that time, and that he very much enjoyed going to clubs and the nightlife … I feel like it’s a side of him or a part of him that he lived but probably didn’t want everybody to know about.” Asked if she thought he was gay, she said “I don’t know”.
Forget all the subtleties, complexities. All the Repugs and bigots need to know, must force Obama to say, is that he was MUSLIM, so ALL Muslims are suspect and bad.
Hmmmm I'm starting to lean the mentally ill angle as well. He was #bluelivesmatter and he hated gays...on paper he was your average blue blooded American.
Many repressed sexuals struggle with and hate there sexuality and lash out. I read that when he would go to that club, he'd get drunk and obnoxious. This story reminds me of that shooter in Santa monica (I think) the guy who made vids saying girls don't like him and wondered why he can't get laid before going on that shooting spree
Djohn, not only that. He was drinking and going to gay clubs during Ramadan.
Exactly.
He was violent towards his wife before, then decided to take it out on the people he blamed for his feelings.
come on, people, he was Muslim! that's all that counts for the bigots
iow, Obama was and is correct not call this MUSLIM terrorism.
Guns killed more Americans in the past 50 years than every US war ever
http://www.vox.com/policy-and-politi...-more-than-war
gun killings are more definitively American than apple pie.
gun killings, for gun industry profits, are what keeps America exceptionally great.
Senator draws a curious connection between assault rifles, bombs
As Politico reported, Johnson told CNN’s Wolf Blitzer that fully automatic weapons are already banned, so policymakers should go no further.
A puzzled Blitzer pressed Johnson, seeking clarity on the Republican senator’s distinction between banned fully-automatic weapons and the legally purchased semi-automatic rifle used by shooter Omar Mateen.
“The AR-15 that was used in this terror attack, killing 49 people, you wouldn’t describe that as an assault weapon?” Blitzer asked. “You’re differentiating between that and a fully automatic assault weapon? Because that weapon certainly did kill a lot of people.”
“So do bombs,” Johnson replied. “So there are other ways that terrorists can slaughter people.”
Um, OK, but does Johnson – who somehow was made chairman of the Senate Homeland Security Committee – realize that bombs are already heavily regulated, tightly controlled, and legally restricted for personal ownership?
You are not allowed to own a bomb, or carry a bomb on your back while visiting your neighborhood Chipotle.
Not even if you claim you need a bomb for self-protection, or because you’re afraid there are other people out there with other bombs who might try to bomb you first. We’re not stupid, after all.
You cannot buy ready-made bombs at Walmart, because Walmart is not allowed to sell ready-made mass murder devices.
Even those Americans that are permitted to own and operate bombs (for example, for excavation purposes) face very, very tight state and federal regulations and restrictions; as for the rest of us, outside of military service we are allowed to be in personal possession of a mass-murder-sized bomb approximately never.
Perhaps because America has bomb control, our nation faces no epidemic of bomb-related mass murders.
There are some – most in recent decades perpetrated by radical far-right groups against government targets or as part of anti-abortion extremism – but we do not have bombs going off on a daily basis in cities around the nation, the bodies piling up in our trauma centers and in our morgues while our politicians wonder what, if anything, should be done.
That would seem to offer at least some evidence that our “bomb controls” are, despite the continued ability of some very small band of lunatics to create bombs despite the obstacles we have thrust in their way, working.
All of this, by the way, came in response to Sen. Marco Rubio’s (R) surprisingly ignorant call after the mass murders in San Bernardino for increased “bomb control,” not “gun control.”
Six months later, Ron Johnson’s rhetoric appears slightly worse because his point is more incoherent.

Articles like this, based on actual Repug, etc quotes, is why you bubbas HATE Maddow slapping y'all's side.
Here's the kind of "logic" gun fellators make:
"Heavy, enforced bomb regulations must be repealed because they didn't stop the OKC bombing.
If those Murrah building kiddies would have had bombs, they could have bombed bombed in self-defense
Anyway there's no Cons utional amendment protecting the right to run around with bombs"

Typical crap that includes suicides in the gun deaths.
yeah, we know the position of you rednecks, suicide people are losers, offs, mentally ill, so let's keep making it easy AND EXTREMELY RELIABLE for them kill themselves. Good riddance. Eugenics rules, OK!
