Nope, he admitted it was his allegiance to the Islamic state.
 
In his own words:
 
 

Orlando Police Dispatcher: Emergency 911, this is being recorded.

Omar Mateen: In the name of God the Merciful, the beneficent [said in Arabic]

OD: What?

OM: Praise be to God, and prayers as well as peace be upon the prophet of God [said in Arabic]. I wanna let you know, Im in Orlando and I did the shootings.

OD: Whats your name?

OM: My name is I pledge of allegiance to Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi of the Islamic State.

OD: Ok, Whats your name?

OM: I pledge allegiance to Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi may God protect him [said in Arabic], on behalf of the Islamic State.

OD: Alright, where are you at?

OM: In Orlando.

OD: Where in Orlando?

[End of call.]

My dog Sam tells me what to do.

Can't go wrong there.

In his own words:
 
 

It never occurred to you that maybe was a sort of cover?

Was he officially part of ISIS? I haven't heard that he was.

Read the transcript, he pledged his allegiance to Isis, it doesn't get any more clear.
 
They don't have an official membership package that they send out to apply for.
 
This is where you liberals lose the argument. 
 
If it where a christian doing this in the name god, then you all would be running this into the ground.
 
But when a Muslim extremist terrorist murders in the name of Alah, then you all flip out and scream "don't you dare blame Islam!!!"
 
Sickening....

I did read it. The words he used are certainly clear; that doesn't mean he was acting in an official capacity for ISIS- it's still very possible that he was just an evil lone actor. Doesn't change the end result-or bring anyone back- but I think it's important to know the real story in order to better prevent a repeat.

Even after he was interviewed multiple times for his Islamic extremism?
 
Seriously Kev?
 
That's the story you're telling yourself?

 

[Kev3188]

We shouldn't be content with such a pat narrative. It all seems just a bit too convenient.

Pat narrative because its an inconvenient truth that shocks your liberal sense's. 
 
You have a guy that was investigated/interviewed multiple times for Islamic extremism who pledged allegiance to Isis and carried out a slaughter in in Alah's name.
 
In his own words.
 
And yet you just cant accept the obvious.
 
Let me guess, that's the same story you believe with the San Bernardino terrorist as well?
 
Fort Hood shooter?
 
Come off it Kev....

 

[townpete]

So if one is investigated for possible unhinged behavior (multiple times) and then carries out a shooting and kills multiple people, we should consider it a "pat narrative" and just a bit too "convenient"?
 
Or is it the guns fault?

 

[Kev3188]

We shouldn't consider anything as a "definite" as fast as we have...

BTW, here's an interesting (and legit) article that ties in well with questions about why more wasn't done with-or to- Mateen ahead of this: http://mobile.nytimes.com/2016/06/22/world/europe/france-orlando-isis-terrorism-investigation.html

We should consider anything definite when he has a history of Islamic radicalism and then carries it out?
 
Seriously Kev?
 
Then how is it you have a definite conclusion that the NRA is at fault over this?

 

[Kev3188]

Didn't say that, but they've definitely made sure people like Mateen have easy access to all kinds of weaponry...

You didnt say that, and then you just did.
 
But hey lets not accept a Muslim radical when he wants to carry out a terrorist act in his own words.
 
That would be beyond the pale right Kev?
 

 

[townpete]

Here's an idea for you Kev: If we don't want terrorist's who are on a watch list to buy guns, how about we just indict them and ship them off to gitmo? 
 
You don't want due process to buy a gun, then who needs due process for a suspected terrorist?
 
Pack'em up, ship'em out.
 
Problem solved.
