Orlando Shooter Omar Mateen: Inspired By ISIS Or Gay Self-Loathing Closet Case?

Image
Omar Mateen A lot more information is coming to light about the Pulse Orlando Shooter Omar Mateen: Via JoeMyGod: Several of the regular patrons of Pulse say Omar has been a customer on and off for years. Via TowleRoad: A former classmate of Mateen says he thought he was gay and Mateen asked him out on a date. Via CBS : Omar's father is anti-gay and says "God will punish those involved in homosexuality." So, maybe this is more about a self-loathing closet case who's family's extreme religious beliefs made him so unstable, it caused him to do something this horrific!  Maybe his declaration of allegiance to ISIS was a way for him to justify this need to attack what he saw in himself.
