Who will the MSM side with now? Theoretically, this could be quite the dilemma, however I'm guessing that this whole incident in Orlando will be covered by focusing on gun control and the general problem of "haters" while avoiding any discussion of radical Islam and how they believe it is ok to murder gay people and often throw them from rooftops to make the point. Let's watch the MSM and see what their focus is over the coming days. This effort may require some serious "tap-dancing", but hey, thats their job these days.
There is new information on the horrific terror attack in Orlando last night that has killed at least 50 and wounded more than 100 in the largest mass shooting in American history.
Sources are telling the Daily Beast that suspected killer Omar Mateen had previously been investigated by the FBI in 2013 and 2014, making this yet another "known wolf" terror attack:
The senior law enforcement source reports that Mateen became a person of interest in 2013 and again in 2014. The Federal Bureau of Investigation at one point opened an investigation into Mateen but subsequently closed the case when it produced nothing that appeared to warrant further investigation.
“He’s a known quantity,” the source said. “He’s been on the radar before.”
This is not the first time that the gay community has been targeted by would-be jihadists.
In fact, an imam speaking in Orlando in April said that killing gays according to Islamic law should be done "out of compassion":
ISIS claimed they were going to attack Florida three days before a fanatic armed with an AR-15 assault shot dead at least 50 people in a gay nightclub, according to Twitter feeds supporting the terror group.
Security services in Florida have confirmed the killer is 29-year-old Omar Mateen, a US-born citizen with Afghan parents, and ISIS-affiliated Twitter accounts have released an image of the shooter.
Several ISIS-linked Twitter accounts have praised Mateen's actions, although there has been no official claim of responsibility from the group.
One account posted Mateen's picture with the caption: 'The man who carried out the Florida nightclub attack which killed 50 people and injured dozens.'
Another account, which has now been deleted, gloated over the deaths using the #Pulse hashtag.
'We swear to Allah that we will kill you everywhere O disbeliever,' wrote the follower.
In another tweet they posted: 'Take your troops out if our countries and stop support your followers or else you will see more and more blood.'
Rita Katz, Director of SITE Intelligence Group, a global counter-terrorism organisation, claimed 'Jihadists' have been celebrating the shooting as the 'best Ramadan gift'.
Yet there has also been an outpouring of sympathy over the victims and messages of shock and support have been sent in their hundreds of thousands, including from world leaders.
Why wasn't this imam asked to speak at today's taqiyya press conferences post-gay massacre in Orlando?
And while Muslims in the US generically condemn "terror", where are they teaching against the Islamic texts and teachings that inspire the slaughter?
The opportunism and exploitation by Islamic supremacists and their leftist lapdogs in the wake of jihad slaughter is as savage as the carnage. The left is jumping on “gun control” ignoring all of the knife jihad attacks in the past couple of gays.
It is terrifying for gay people to live in a country that is under the sharia or even respectful of sharia law. What is so egregious is that openly gay men in the West like Anderson Cooper loudly and repeatedly condemn me for my counter-jihad work and opposition to sharia. And he is hardly alone: the vast majority of gay organizations stand staunchly with their would-be executioners.
The silence of the gay leadership here and abroad is sickening. When I ran ads highlighting the oppression of gays under Islamic law, the San Francisco City Council issued a resolution (the first of its kind!) condemning me, not our ads.
Transgender and gay leaders and advocates such as Theresa Sparks and Chris Stedman attacked us for daring to call attention to the institutionalized mistreatment of gays under Islamic law.
Robert Spencer wrote, “Their gay advocacy doesn’t extend to standing up to Sharia oppression of gays, even though that oppression is far more virulent and violent than anything from ‘right-wing extremists’ in the U.S.
And you can’t blame them: given the Leftist/jihadist alliance, it’s clear that if they spoke out against Sharia mistreatment of gays, they would no longer be invited to the best parties, and might even be branded as ‘right-wing.’ Their moral cowardice and duplicity, however, are obvious.”
Over 100 people have been killed or maimed at a gay dance club in Orlando by Omar Mateen, a Muslim terrorist. How many more innocent gays need to die before we admit that America, and the world, has an Islam problem?
I don’t mean a “radical Islam” problem or an “extremist Islam problem.” Violence is not the extreme in Islam any more: it’s the norm. The public’s patience for comments like the one below, from the dimwitted lesbian Sally Kohn, are wearing thin. As for mine, it’s long since run out.
EVERY religion has sub-groups of intolerant extremism. You can't tell me the problem is religion. The problem is intolerant extremism!
Obama’s response to the tragedy today was similarly limp-wristed. He made no mention of Islam or Muslims, instead condemning “hate and terror” and taking a brazen swipe at gun rights activists by noting “how easy it is to let people get their hands on a weapon.”
He didn’t even address the uniquely homophobic character of the attack. What a good liberal!
These are dirty secrets the progressive Left and social justice warriors would rather you didn’t know. But the cat is now out of the bag.
Omar Mateen wasn’t just a homophobe, by the way. He was also a misogynist – a real one, not someone who offends feminists on Twitter – who repeatedly beat his ex-wife while they were married. Of course, as we saw in Cologne six months ago, this sort of behaviour is also the norm in Muslim cultures.
Needless to say, the Left is silent on the subject.
A lot of people laughed at Donald Trump when he suggested a temporary ban on Muslims entering the country. No doubt they thought he was further harming his chances in the general election.
No one is laughing now. What’s more, I expect many are quietly wondering if the “temporary” ban might have to be permanent. Western capitalist democracy gave women and gays equal footing in society; Islam has arrived to roll the clock back.
Over 50 people have been killed at a gay bar in Orlando as a gunman being invested for "ties to Islamic terrorism" opened fire late last night. News of the slaughter is exploding across the media today, but here's what they won't dare report.
First of all, over the last 2-3 years, any person who claimed that radical Islam posed any danger whatsoever to the safety of U.S. citizens was called an intolerant bigot by the political left. This was all part of the "political correctness" brigade that seeks to shut down rational caution by labeling it "intolerance." Even though Islam religious leaders openly teach the murder of gays, we were all supposed to embrace their religion and welcome even more violent terrorists into our nation.
Second, the entire mainstream media has so far deliberately conspired to avoid mentioning any ties to radical Islam among both the San Bernardino shooters (from a few months back) as well as today's shooting in Orlando. The twisted narrative from the mainstream media will focus entirely on the weapon rather than the person wielding it. They will only reluctantly mention radical Islam if they can no longer avoid doing so.
Thirdly -- and the entire mainstream media will deliberately refuse to print this -- ISIS announced that it was targeting Florida for a major attack just three days ago. As stated in this article at The Gateway Pundit:
Thirdly -- and the entire mainstream media will deliberately refuse to print this -- ISIS announced that it was targeting Florida for a major attack just three days ago. As stated in this article at The Gateway Pundit:
Instead of acknowledging that this is an act of terrorism carried out by an organized, radical wing of Islam, the entire mainstream media has falsely characterized this attack as a "hate crime" that targeted gays. They are only now finally admitting it was an act of terrorism after undeniable evidence linking the shooter to ISIS has been cited by the FBI.
Here are just some of the ways the mainstream media will deliberately distort this story:
• They will refuse to mention the shooter's full name, because it sounds like a Muslim name.
• They will Photoshop the shooter's photos to make him appear as WHITE as possible, implying this is a "white guys with guns" problem in society.
• They will blame the gun but not the person wielding it. Somehow the inanimate object will be vilified, but never the person who pulled the trigger.
• They will never dare mention that the shooter is a registered democrat, because they have to push the narrative that only Republicans are violent shooters, never democrats.
• They will refuse to mention the shooter's full name, because it sounds like a Muslim name.

• They will never dare mention that the shooter is a registered democrat, because they have to push the narrative that only Republicans are violent shooters, never democrats.
Above all, the media will call for the complete disarmament of citizens even as open borders bring more radical terrorists into our nation.
ISIS Muslim terrorists released a statement on their plan to attack Florida, and even put out a list with the names of people in Florida that they plan on killing. According to one report:
A pro-Isis group has released a hit list with the names of more than 8,000 peoplemostly Americans.
More than 600-people live in Florida, and one security expert believes that many of those targeted live in Palm Beach County and on the Treasure Coast.
The “United Cyber Caliphate” that hacked U.S. Central Command, 54,000 Twitter accounts and threatened President Barack Obama is the same pro-Isis group that’s reportedly created a “kill list” with the names, addresses and emails of thousands of civilian Americans.
Reports of the list came to light online when Vocativ reported the list was shared via the encrypted app, Telegram, and called on supporters to kill.
Former FBI agent-turned lawyer Stuart Kaplan says the threat is especially alarming, because the people on this list are civilians who don’t have the security necessary to protect themselves.
“It’s going to create some hysteria,” he said.

I googled terrorist attack fatalities just to see the numbers. As of about noon today, we've had 69 incidents with approx 1600+ fatalities.....in JUNE! Yes, quite a few of these deaths come from the Iraqi region (where the two warring factions of the religion of peace are slaughtering each other)....no doubt in an argument over who is more peaceful. These guys are killing people daily, but we only pay attention when it's on our soil. It's too late now....looking up!
