Recent co-workers described Mateen’s demeanor as aggressive and anti-gay. Daniel Gilroy, who worked with Mateen at the security company G4S, told Florida Today that he was “unhinged and unstable.”
“I quit because everything he said was toxic, and the company wouldn’t do anything,” Gilroy told the news outlet. “This guy was unhinged and unstable. He talked of killing people.”
He said Mateen stalked him with dozens of text messages a day, but the company didn’t take action because Mateen was Muslim.....
“When I saw his picture on the news, I thought, of course, he did that,” fellow security guard Eric Baumer told Newsday. “He had bad things to say about everybody—blacks, Jews, gays, a lot of politicians, our soldiers. He had a lot of hate in him.
Etc....with more coworker comments about how everyone knew he was unhinged, but nothing happened.
Is political correctness growing to an absurd state of existence where people are afraid to turn people in/get people intervention help, because they could get called a bigot?
From the article: company wouldn't do anything about it.
This indicates brass knew he was a nut. If you kick it upstairs you risk getting canned or the fat cats sweep it under the rug...a toxic mix of PC/statist insanity.
In a perfect world (free one) this loon would have been shunned back to the Stone Age by coworkers, employers, and businesses.
People who express radical views, regardless of ideology, should always be reported. It seems that the evidence was in about this man. No reasonable person could look at acting on this as a sign of bigotry. It's a shame that the company didn't report him to the police. Maybe things could have been different.

Most of these mass shooters - from the Denver theater to Sandy Hook to Orlando - had friends and family that knew they had a few screws loose and did nothing. Time to start putting such people in jail for endangering the rest of us.

Are people afraid of being ostracized or fired if they report a person?
YUP cause being political correct, is more important then keeping people safe, fudg that chit. People ought not be afraid of stating the truth and being truthful.
This political correct chit, these people need to just go to another Country.
