29 year old son to Afganistan Parents. He is a legal US citizen with history of being on the terrorist watch list. FBI well aware of this guy for last three years.

Very sad.
I'm glad the shooter is not a white man from the south.
Omar Mateen is 31 year-old US citizen from Port St. Lucie, a town on Florida’s east coast about two hours away. Mateen’s parents are reportedly Afghani immigrants. Federal authorities say there are “suggestions” that the killer has ties to radical Islam.

Why is the news reporting this as an attack at a gay club instead of just a club? Seems like they're trying to imply motive with no evidence of any.

Please let the perp be middle eastern.

Would be nice to see the Quaran loving progs spin this.

Guy inside the club says there are two shooters.

so much conflicting things being said
so there's that.. but then again maybe it is the guy..
going to be a lot of misinformation early on.
i also am hearing multiple deaths.. but again nothing confirmed

The suspect is NOT that Sam Hyde white supremacist. The original tweetof that has tweeted that same photo countless times over the past week. It's a HOAX. Don't make things worse by sharing information that hasn't been confirmed by police. It doesn't make you cool. It makes you a jerk.

Yeah, just read that so I'll delete it. I'm reading 9 dead and 27 injured and then there are some saying shooters fled the scene while others saying they're still inside.

Any confirmation on identity of the shooter?
in this case, I am going to think it is personal stuff.
recent military service,jilted.
