DHS's membership list
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.”

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.

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.
