He's had this planned. I think he's gone over the edge, awhile back, and found comfort w/the extremist community (Or, rather, he was already one of the mentally "bent" type of folks and it got worse recently.). Like any other type of extremist they usually seek out other extremists. He may not have been meeting up w/them, but at least cruising websites, twitter accts., and chatrooms, imo. His hatred, imo, for gays, probably sparked his heading down the extremist path too. Ramadan did not begin until last Sunday evening. Too late for him to target the club then, for ISIS. This was the first full weekend of Ramadan. I looked at Ft. Pierce and there does not seem to be any gay bars/clubs there at all. If there are they must be small and not well known like Pulse and/or Hamburger Marys for example. Ft. Lauderdale has a fairly large gay bar presence. Orlando not as much. It's also a further drive than Ft. Lauderdale. However, Pulse is billed as the hottest gay bar in Orlando. So, I think there was something targeted w/Pulse. Possibly w/it being the hottest bar, and in Orlando? The home of Disney and the Happiest Place on Earth? Where "families" take their "children"? Seeing as, from what we've been told, that he was so set off by the pda of the gay couple in front of his child. Just tossing out thoughts. The man was warped so we may never know why he picked Orlando, and Pulse.
