Like all of you I am extremely upset and devastated at this horrible mass killing.
I ask that we don't make general statements about political parties.
We can discuss this as a hate crime against gays and an act of domestic terrorism.
Thank you,
Tricia
Angry ? We don't get to go shoot 100 people any time we are angry. It must have triggered something a little deeper in him if you kwim. If this was my son, I would not be talking to any press. I'd be too ashamed to show my face.... possibly forever.
Yup, just think about it...All this one person had to do was sweep the room, back and forth, up and down...new clip...sweep the room again...He could most likely do all of that twice before anyone even know what was really happening. One of the witnesses said that for a few seconds, he thought the gun fire sound was actually the music.
I believe he was alone until LE says otherwise, which I don't think they will.
He was registered to vote per Florida's database:

It was unclear whether Mateen was on the FBI's radar before the attack. However, when asked about possible connections to radical Islamic terrorism, assistant FBI Agent in Charge Ronald Hopper told Fox News, "We do have suggestions that that individual may have gleanings toward that particular ideology. But right now we can't say definitively."
Hopper also said Mateen made "threats in the past that he has ties to terrorist organizations."
I arrived back in the US this morning after a trip abroad--to be greeted by this news.
At breakfast it was 20 dead, by the time I got to the airport for my final fight home it was 50.
My heart is broken.
Soooo, Christina Grimmie gets shot from some guy that drove from somewhere to kill her on Friday then on Saturday night/Sunday morning another dude drives from somewhere to shoot up a gay bar??

50 dead - along with wondering when LE did go in with the robot and exchanged fire - maybe he had already killed everyone in there. I haven't heard anything about once LE went in how many hostages they got out. LE has capabilities of getting ears and eyes into a building and maybe they already knew he had killed everyone.
JMHO
And there are political threads in the parking lot if you need to go that route. Let's just all say a prayer all of those injured survive. lease:
Makes you wonder if there's a connection or the shooting triggered Omar to carry out his plan sooner?
