That sounds like the name of a serial killer, like "Charles Manson" or "Wayne Williams."
I think you need to be investigated based on your name alone.
Hahah... because "Omar Mir Seddique Mateen" is what people name their kids every day in the USA. There couldn't possibly be any foreign family history in that name! It's probably in the top 10 baby name list!

Why was he under investigation again in 2013 and 2014 by the FBI? Why was he was found not to be a threat?
My sister lives in Orlando... but she's not gay thankfully.

So proof is there they were planning it while Clinton was in office.
Of course... but people want to blame W for it. He was governor of Texas while the terrorists were here taking the flight lessons.
If you are trying to say that Trump, who owns a multi-national multi-billion $$ company is less qualified on foreign affairs than a one term senator and community agitator, then you are wrong again. We see the mess the community agitator and his secretary of state has made on the world stage. The tragedy in Orlando is a result of it.
It appears that Mateen may have used ISIS as an excuse to do what he wanted, and that he had lots of mental and emotional stuff that made him want to target gays, and just about anyone else. Kinda like that guy last year who did the massacre at the women's clinic, who did it for his religion. It is sad when someone's religion and their hatred mesh and make them turn into a murderer. Would like to know how, other than another poster's suggestion that anyone with a muslim-sounding name automatically be on a watch list, this guy could have been stopped.
As an aside, in an interview with one of Mateen's co-workers yesterday, it turns out he sounded a lot like trump... hated everyone, talked bad about everyone, threatened people. If anyone is to blame, it is his employer and family for not doing something about his pretty obvious issues. There is no law that says you can't talk bad about people... or trump would be in jail not on the campaign trail.

WoW!
Now you compare Trump to Islamic Terrorist who killed 53 people in cold blood.

thank you for proving my point... The answer appears to be a resounding yes.
Nah Trump only knows about hate, bigotry, ignorance and self-love.
Like Obama said, Trump thinks he can defeat ISIS by just calling them "radical Islam" Trump only knows about Twitter wars. He thinks he can defeat the enemy by just calling them names.
Exactly. He thinks he'll tweet them into submission.
Obama is much more worried about how he is going to be viewed in response to these terrible attacks in history. Because the man is obsessed with history, namely the racist history of America in his mind.
He had to once again bring up America's racist past. He won't even let us mourn the loss of 49 of our brothers and sisters, he just can't resist getting up on that soap box.
Make no mistake, he will let many more of us die before he does ANYTHING about this problem that will make him look the least bit like he profiled people.
The safe bet for him is to blame guns and all extremism which is to essentially take no stand at all.
He just wants to get to January and not make any real decisions on this so he can build his library and make himself look like Gandhi.
For sure... big difference is that trump gets to say those things on a national/international stage.
