      • With professionals like this looking after us, is it any wonder why they didn't stop Orlando?

        • Inaccurate reporting was common on the subject of Laila Alawa's appointment to a DHS advisory subcommittee on violent extremism.

          • Your link says refuted the fact that Obama appointed her personally. Putting aside the fact my post said nothing about that, fine.

            It did not refute the fact that she is on that committee, nor did it refute the fact that she is still on that committee.

            One of that subcommittee's recommendations published June 9 2016

            4. Reject religiously-charged terminology and problematic positioning by using plain
            meaning American English.
            a. US v THEM: For example, use “American Muslim” rather than “Muslim
            American”; “Muslim communities” rather than “Muslim world.”
            b. AMERICAN ENGLISH: For example, on using American English instead
            of religious, legal and cultural terms like “jihad,” “sharia,” “takfir” or
            “umma.”
            The fact that she's on the subcommittee to "counter youth radicalization to violence" while being pretty fucking radical herself sounds like a great idea, no?

            Leftist snopes is not the best go-to source to independently defend leftist shit.

            • Orlando shooter was suspended from school for cheering the 9/11 attacks.

              Yeah, no red flags there.

              I also thought the whole Muslims cheering thing in the US was made up by Donald Trump.

              Omar Mateen’s school days included an incident where he was charged with battery and another where a school official said he was suspended for cheering the 9/11 attacks.

              STUART, Fla. — Pulse nightclub shooter Omar Mateen’s troubled school days included an incident where he was charged with battery and another where a school official said he was suspended for cheering the Sept. 11 attacks two days after they took place.

                • Gun store owner: We called FBI before Orlando shooting

                  More failures by the FBI?

                  Gun store owner: We called FBI before Orlando shooting

                  JENSEN BEACH, Fla. -- The co-owner of a Florida gun store says his employees contacted law enforcement before the Orlando shooting after gunman Omar Mateen attempted to purchase body armor and ammunition.

                  Robbie Abell, co-owner of Lotus Gunworks, said Thursday his workers had a gut feeling about Mateen when he came to the store four or five weeks ago.

                  Mateen asked for level 3 body armor, according to Abell, but was told the store didn't carry it. He then made a phone call and spoke in Arabic before asking for bulk ammunition, but employees did not sell it to him.

                  Abell told reporters "we contacted FBI direct" after Mateen left the store but he did not elaborate on how investigators responded. He believed his employees did what they should have done, Abell said.

                  Law enforcement officials have told CBS News at this point, they have not found any evidence that the gun shop contacted police about Mateen's alleged suspicious behavior.

                  Investigators say Mateen opened fire early Sunday morning at the Pulse nightclub in Orlando, killing 49 people and wounding 53 others before he was killed in a shootout with police. It was the deadliest attack on U.S. soil since 9/11.

                  The FBI is investigating the shooting as both a hate crime, since it took place at a gay nightclub, and as a terror attack.

                  A source familiar with the investigation told CBS News on Wednesday that Mateen referenced the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) in a Facebook message posted moments before the shooting.

                  "You kill innocent women and children by doing us airstrikes..now taste the Islamic state vengeance [sic]," Mateen wrote, according to the source.

                  "In the next few days you will see attacks from the Islamic State [ISIS] in the usa," the post said.

                      One distributor sold 80k pmags on Monday. Lowers have come up about $20. Couple of dealers say that the wholesalers/distributors aren't completely out of ar15s, but there's an increase in sales that there's a delay in showing what's in stock etc.

                        So who has the best prices on Pmags these days? I assume these are 30rd mags? I might pick up a few if someone has good prices.

                              • Before this last shooting I bought several Amend2 magazines for around $10.00. Was going to recommend them over the Pmags, but they're now about the same price if not more.
