“Worst terrorist attack since 9/11” — say commentators
“Some performers escaped through the air ducts, others hid in the toilets” — says eye witness
“It was like a ‘bam’, ‘bam’, ‘bam’. We were not sure what it was.” — man inside
“We went outside and saw people running and jumping over fences” — man who exited
“First thought it was the sound of the music, kept dancing, had not even touched my drink . .” — male patron
“I saw people falling down, screaming, blood splattering everywhere . .” — patron inside
“Officers were immediately all over the area, as if they had already been close by . .” — male witness
“I want everyone to know the whole family is shocked by this, and this is not from religion” — shooter’s father
“My son was with my grandson few weeks back, saw men kissing, touching each other out in the open. He got upset” — shooters father.
Orlando police shot and killed Omar Mateen at the scene.
“He was wearing what might have been a bullet proof vest” — news commentator
“Mateen called 911 during it all, pledging himself to ISIS, mention Boston bombers . .” — U.S. official (unnamed)
Orlando Police Chief, John Mina said early Sunday morning, “It appears he was organized and well-prepared”, he continued saying, “The shooter had an assault-type weapon, a handgun and "some type of device on him."
So far no claims of responsibility from any terrorist type websites. However, sympathizers of ISIS are praising this attack, as though it was something sanctioned or approved on extremist’s web pages.
Notice was given by police officials, accompanied by FBI, is will be a long time investigation, considering the number killed, wounded and injured and the wide range of violence.
HERO? - OR - ZERO?
NOTICE TO OUR READERS: If you or anyone you know, considers this or similar events to be praised worthy, or acceptable in any religion, especially Islam - IT IS NOT.
Islam considers such types of violence to be among the very worst of deeds. And if you think people's sexual proclivity is justification for any type of physical assault or murder - This also is wrong and totally against the teachings of the Quran and prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him.
Read your Quran (Arabic or translation) and see what is says about taking lives of those not engaged in combat against you:
