Good post lmfao.
& how many what they call "moderate muslims" think exactly the same way as this nutters dad i wonder! The Left Wing Loonies looking to blame home grown extremism & guns rather than the real problem |
|
By:
The dad seems pretty laid back about the whole thing,
does he not realise what his sons just done  surely you wouldn't even be how to speak to the media in that situation so soon? |
|
By:
the claim is that the dad is tantamount to a taliban - if so - there should be filters to have stopped him entering the country in the first place - but i guess thats easier said than done and i suppse it suports trump's intent
Gawd! |

i wonder will they start teaching the public what to do in these situations. likely to be many more in the future it would be nice to know the best course of action.

Carry your own gun would be my advice. You can then shoot back.
America is a society of great extremes, I feel it is very much at war with itself. Adding in a problem with Islam would probably not help, I can see that. |

the murderer, who has pledged his allegiance to ISIS, had visited the Pulse nightclub several times over the past three years and was active on gay dating sites such as Grindr.
Couple Ty Smith and Chris Callen, who work together as grab-dancing performers, said they had seen Mateen as many as a dozen times at the club. The pair also said they had seen him escorted drunk from Pulse on more than one occasion. Callen said: “I’ve seen him a couple of time at Pulse, a couple of other people that I’ve spoken with, including an-ex security guard, have actually witnessed this guy at Pulse many times before. “One friend was a security guard there two years ago and she remembers him.” Callen said the gunman began appearing at the club around thee years ago and that Mateen became angry one night about a religious joke, pulling a knife on a friend. He added: “It’s shocking to everyone because we saw him there before Smith said Mateen would go to the club to relax in a way he could not around his family. He said: “He’d get really, really drunk. He couldn’t drink when he was at home — around his wife, or family. His father was really strict. “He used to bitch about it.” At least one man also reportedly came forward to say Mateen had contacted him on the gay dating app Grindr. He said he also knew friends who had been contacted by the killer on other gay dating services. |

I was thinking - this sounds personal? who drives 90 miles to a gay bar they don't know. I'm sure they have ones more local. posts below convincing. could be some sort of revenge being played out.

Trump to ban Irish immigrants
..and called for a ban on migrants from any part of the world with “a proven history of terrorism” against the United States or its allies... http://www.nytimes.com/2016/06/14/us/politics /donald-trump-hillary-clinton-speeches .html?action=click&pgtype=Homepage &clickSource=story-heading&module =span-abc-region®ion=span-abc-region&WT.nav=span-abc-region |

As soon as I heard the news about the massacre I said to my non-estranged wife that I bet he was a repressed ****. Of course, had the organisation he pledged allegiance to been aware of his sexuality they would have thrown him off a high building. IS will probably try and deny he was one of theirs now, which is probably true. Just another deranged American nutter with the means to commit mass murder.

Where is the dishonesty in my post?
|
|
By:
if you live in any country you can only have some reason to trust your fellow citizens if they are like you and believe in the same things as you and in the same freedoms.
If a situation comes about were you have many different people with different religious and political ideas, then you have a major problem. The reason the US was so successful was not because it was democratic, although that played a part, it was because of cultural imperialism and everyone who lived in that country was able to see the goal and benefits of living and striving for the best ideas of freedom and the european ideas of the western nations that go back to ancient Greece. |

And that explains my dishonesty how?

By:
the dishonesty Michael is in trying to pretend that the madness of this killer has nothing to do with the barbaric idelogy that we see in many parts of the world..not just America

I was delighted to hear that the Commons had one minutes silence to show respect for the fallen. Several speeches were made on the subject of homophobia.
I bet they feel foolish now it is known that the killer was of the order of the jacket. Time was when ***** , oops , sorry, homosexuals, were happy to settle their differences with a scratch or two . Now it is assault rifles at dawn. What is the world coming to? I am told that a BBC newsreader was in floods while attempting to report the incident! I wonder what Julian and his friend Sandy would think of it all? |

you see if he was gay then that points towards the dangers inherent in this religion, especially if it is becoming something attractive to mentally unstable people who are potentially violent.
Does the very nature of that religion lead to people believing it is acceptable to through people of tall buildings because they are gay? it is is the case that he was gay, and he may well not have been then this is another warning of the dangers inherent in this religion and in some, many thousands/millions? who believe in it. |
|
By:
Presumably it was his devout adherence to that ideology that lead him to be a drunken homosexual.
|
|
By:
you see is there anything wrong in being a drunken homosexual. I don`t believe there is , but maybe he did? and does the religion he followed legitimise his savage mad act.

 "Abballa posted images of his assault live on Facebook, according to David Thomson, a French journalist specialising in French jihadism, who tweeted that the attacker filmed himself at the scene inside the house with the three-year-old boy behind him on the sofa. Abballa said, with the boy seated behind him: “I don’t know yet what I’m going to do with him.”https://www.theguardian.com/world/2016/jun/14/french-police-officer-wife-murdered-larossi-abballa-isis |
