FBI Called Off Investigation Of Orlando Shooter Because They Thought His Coworkers Were Racist
2016-06-14
[DAILYCALLER] The FBI reportedly cancelled its 2013 investigation into Orlando terrorist Omar Mateen after only 10 months because they viewed the terroristic threats he made as a reaction to "being marginalized because of his Moslem faith," by his coworkers.
You'd have to be a progressive to believe that, and unfortunately, that's just who is in charge...
According to Fox News’ Catherine Herridge, the revelation came during a closed door meeting with FBI Director James Comey Monday afternoon.

"Director Comey confirmed to news hounds this morning that there was a full FBI investigation of Omar Mateen in 2013," she explained. "It was 10 months in length, and it was opened after he told his coworkers that he had family connections to Al Qaeda, that he was a member of a Shi’a terrorism organization and that he hoped law enforcement would raid his home and assault his wife so that he could then retaliate and martyr himself."

"That investigation was very extensive," Herridge continued. "It involved the use of confidential informants -- also surveillance -- by the FBI as well as two in person interviews with Mateen."

"At the end of 10 months the investigation was closed with no further action. They took Mateen’s statements he was trying to taunt his coworkers because he thought he was being marginalized because of his Moslem faith."
In other words, he fooled the FBI...

#8  Racists could be right from time to time (if they were actually racists). Heads should roll.

#7  So many security check thresholds,
So many obvious behavioral triggers,
So little monitoring.

"Just because you're paranoid a racist doesn't mean they aren't out to get you!"

#6  Comey should step down in shame, as should everyone involved in clearing this guy. But liberals have no shame so nothing will happen.

#3  Terrorist threats are reasonable coping mechanisms for perceived racism now? That the FBI agents could make that assessment about a man with clear domestic violence history and associations to jihadi videos and an actual suicide bomber friend from the same mosque shows how deep the rot has gone. In government, especially this democrat abomination, being even remotely seen as anti-Muslim is a career death sentence. We are deep shit.

#2  Racist and possibly homophobic. Bring the car around Rico, we're done here.
