Dammit Florida

[the dude abides]

So fucking stupid.  Hopefully some House and Senate Dems have the balls to call bullshit on this, but I doubt it.

What the fuck is the reasoning behind this?  

Politically speaking, Trump has done everything he possibly can to drown himself this past week, and Obama and the DOJ are basically throwing him a lifeline.

[Lhalo]

Jokes with #omitted all over Twitter.

[nate]

I really can't figure out what the point of this is?  To enrage the public?  I mean I know Trump has a lot of supporters but not all Americans are that stupid.

DOJ reverses course, releases full transcript of Orlando shooter's 911 call

 

[nate]

When there isn't even partisan support for something you know you really fucked up.

[Jay]

Really reflects badly on Loretta Lynch.

Dumb shits

We're not going to release the information where he talks about Allah and ISIS.  

We're not going to release the information that the club was a gay nightclub.  

We're not going to release the information that the weapon he used was a automatic (or semi-automatic) riffle.  

 

Why would any of those things ever make sense?

unbelievable that they would even consider doing this.

Meanwhile Senate Republicans just blocked a bill to expand background checks and eliminate the gun show loophole.

[Kevin]

Good to know politicians have cash in one hand and blood in the other.

And yet, kind of par for the course at the same time.

Don't know all the details but sounds dumb.

[nate]

They also shot down a bill to ban people from the terror watch list from buying guns.

John Oliver covered it perfectly.

I can't wait to see what Oliver does with their decision not to release the information where he talks about Allah and ISIS story.

Man who went to the same mosque as Omar Mateen reported him to the FBI in 2014, but didn’t believe he 'fit the profile' to commit violence

So I guess that's how he got on the watchlist, and maybe why he was dropped? 

[Kevin]

Orlando Police Dispatcher

(OM) Omar Mateen

OD: Emergency 911, this is being recorded.

OD: What?

OM: .... I wanna let you know, I'm in Orlando and I did the shootings.

OD: What's your name?

OD: Ok, What's your name?

OD: Alright, where are you at?

OM: In Orlando.

OD: Where in Orlando?

[End of call.]

 

I'm assuming this is what the transcript would have looked like before the DOJ reversed it's decision?

My guess is it would have been legislation that restricted someone from buying a gun without due process. If they think someone is a terrorist they need to keep watch of them, arrest them and charge them.

Sounds like the FBI really screwed this one up

The FBI are not allowed to pursue individuals based on the suspicion that they might be "radical Islamists"

Collins said the two lists affect approximately 109,000 people, most of whom are foreigners

Foreigners can't buy guns anyways so what is the point?

Also LOL at this

Sen. Bob Corker (R-Tenn.) said "the due process issues matter so much to people," noting that the legislation was still evolving early Tuesday afternoon

[fan_since79]

Loretta Lynch believes the most effective response to terrorism is more love.

She's also still searching for a motive for Omar Mateen.

And this is our Attorney General...
