Terrorist Identified as Omar Mateen from Port Saint Lucie (FL East Coast). There was actually a warning three days ago which matches this attack very closely – HERE – Looks like the FBI/DHS might have dropped the ball.

Oddly, the Florida State and Federal DOJ/FBI officials in Orlando did not bring a Christian, Jewish or Mormon faith leader to the press conference for an update on the terrorist attack. Nor did they explain why they only requested attendance by a Florida Imam.  Hmmmm….
(Via Gateway Pundit) Orlando officials invited Imam Muhammad Musri, the president and senior imam of the Islamic Society of Central Florida, to speak to reporters. This was the first press conference held by Orlando officials after the massacre. No Christian or Jewish leaders were invited to speak to reporters.
Of course the pathetic Imam says “do not sensationalize” and “more gun controls are needed”:

Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name. Thy kingdom come. THY WILL BE DONE, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but DELIVER US FROM EVIL.
For Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever and ever. Amen †

It does not matter whether the Anti-Trumpist of the day emanates from Washington DC (congress), from media (punditry), or from the special interest groups doing the bidding of Wall Street (US CoC), the ultimate thread which connects them all is money. Lots, and lots, of money. These are financial interests.
Not meaning to be so simplistic, but it’s always about the money. Behind every globalist word, behind every globalist ideology, behind the convenient use of pop culture – you find the motives of power interests all circle around money.
Corporate media does an effective job promoting opinion that serves their interests. Admitting this is not cynicism, it is our reality. Controversies are used as tools, simply intended to sway opinion and applied when needed to serve those interests.
That is what they do.  That’s what this is.  That’s all this is.
Think about the current pearl clutching class of DC congress critters, in conjunction with the recently rolled out Mitt Romney approach, aghast with what they call Trump’s racism; or more recently with Romney’s new talking point: “trickle down racism“…
Contrast the accusation against the reality of the GOPe behavior in the Mississippi 2014 primary where race was specifically used BY THEM to retain Thad Cochran’s seat in the Senate.  Was mittens concerned about McConnell’s use of race to advance the GOPe objectives?
Nah, not so much.  Funny that.

“I use a rope every day, that’s how I make my living. If it catches cattle pretty good, it catches a bandit pretty good.”

(Eagle Point Police Department FB) Oregon rancher Robert Borba was at the Eagle Point [Wal Mart]  store loading dog food and a camping tent into his truck when he heard a woman screaming that someone was trying to steal her bike.

The 28-year-old quickly got his horse, Long John, out of its trailer. He grabbed a rope, rode over to the man who was reportedly struggling with the bike gears and attempting to flee on foot.
Borba lassoed the man around the legs and when he dropped, Borba dragged him to one end of the parking lot.
[…] Eagle Point police Sgt. Darin May said officers arrived and found the lassoed man and bike on the ground in the parking lot.  Police arrested Victorino Arellano-Sanchez  (story)
