FBI might know about them, but unless these terrorists actually do something, our laws don't allow for them to be arrested or put away.
Just started reading this thread after reading some of the news articles. Wondering (and this may have been mentioned)...June 5 to July 5 (2016) is the month of Ramadan (Holy Month of Islam). According to this link, http://www.msn.com/en-us/lifestyle/smart-living/what-is-ramadan-and-how-is-it-observed/ss-BBtMMiH , "It is believed that during Ramadan, the spiritual rewards received from God are multiplied." Also, the gates of Paradise are considered to be "wide open" and the gates of hell and demons locked. Could it be that the shooter felt (in his own extremist mind) that his spiritual rewards would be multiplied if he chose this time to "martyr himself" for the tenets of his faith?
Earlier on local news 6 some govt offical asked that vigils be held off till tomm - LE is overwhelmed, and they would need to have some of their folks there!

We must wakeup. The two top mass murders of innocent Americans were both done by Muslim extremists.
How come when these events happen in Europe it is presented to us by the media as a full scale terror operation. When it happens in North America it is always presented as "lone wolf attacks" ?
Also of note, the tsarnaevs and the 9/11 patsies and this guy all had previous "interactions" with federal agents.
The observations you make when you don't take everything MSM says at face value...... in other words, think for yourself.... look at all events happening around world, and begin connecting dots.
Norway had some different dynamics tho. He blew up the city first , dragging LE down there, and then did it on an island, so he had a lot of time before LE could get to the island
I really think the "lone wolf" theory is what ISIS wants us to believe. I firmly believe they are training killers to go out one by one and take out as many people as possible. It's just my opinion, but I think we need to get away from lone wolf theories where ISIS is concerned. There's a whole lot more in the background that we aren't seeing that goes on.

When will this be addressed by the leadership of our country??
I think supporting ISIS was the primary motivator. Victim selection was secondary, targeting people he doesn't like would make perfect sense. Mentioning ISIS will put his entire family, friends, mosque etc...under intense scrutiny so there would be plenty of good reasons NOT to mention it if it wasn't truly a motivating factor.
Plus by choosing a bar he could be sure that none of the victims would be armed and surprise him by returning fire.
I totally agree. That was completely inappropriate, and a slap in the face to the victims and families of the victims. I can't think of any other terrorist attack in history in which the first official press conference about the attack included a representative of the group on whose behalf the attack was mae.
Why are gay men and women restricted from giving blood, it's the same way here for gay men, it makes no sense.
Oh. Ok.
So this terrorist that was investigated twice for terroist activity....his freedom of speech trumped making terrorist remarks, but people who's loved one's were murderered today don't have that same free speech right to hold a vigil.....

What do you propose be done? This guy was born in the US. That makes him a US citizen. He has a right to practice whatever religion he wants. If you want leadership to address it, what is do you think they should do?
