G4S is deeply shocked by the tragic events in Orlando this weekend and the thoughts of everyone at G4S are with the victims and their families.
Omar Mateen was employed by G4S at a residential community in South Florida and was off-duty at the time of the incident. Mateen was subject to detailed company screening when he was recruited in 2007 and re-screened in 2013 with no adverse findings. He was also subject to checks by a U.S. law enforcement agency with no findings reported to G4S.
G4S is providing its full support to all law enforcement authorities in the USA as they conduct their investigations.

The article below states that the single unifying factor for jihad terrorists is regular attendance to a mosque. If this is true, then an argument could be made that Islamic mosques are the cause base of radical Islam. But then the corollary becomes that there is no radical Islam: only Islam which teaches jihad, taqiyya and kitman. If that is true, then we must also accept that the government is part of this jihad against us.
The single factor that unifies virtually all jihad terrorists — devout observance in Islam — is the one most commonly discounted and dismissed by mainstream analysts. That’s one key reason why we’re in the fix we’re in.
Are authorities investigating what is taught at the Islamic Center of Fort Pierce, or just taking the imam’s statements at face value? Probably the latter.
The page was run by Pamela Geller, the well-known Islam critic and Breitbart contributor who led efforts to stop construction of the Ground Zero Mosque. Geller reported the removal of her Facebook group on Twitter, and called on supporters to politely request its reinstatement in a subsequent post on her personal website.
On the morning of December 29, 1890, the Sioux chief Big Foot and some 350 of his followers camped on the banks of Wounded Knee creek. Surrounding their camp was a force of U.S. troops charged with the responsibility of arresting Big Foot and disarming his warriors. The scene was tense. Trouble had been brewing for months.
The once proud Sioux found their free-roaming life destroyed, the buffalo gone, themselves confined to reservations dependent on Indian Agents for their existence. In a desperate attempt to return to the days of their glory, many sought salvation in a new mysticism preached by a Paiute shaman called Wovoka. Emissaries from the Sioux in South Dakota traveled to Nevada to hear his words. Wovoka called himself the Messiah and prophesied that the dead would soon join the living in a world in which the Indians could live in the old way surrounded by plentiful game. A tidal wave of new soil would cover the earth, bury the whites, and restore the prairie. To hasten the event, the Indians were to dance the Ghost Dance. Many dancers wore brightly colored shirts emblazoned with images of eagles and buffaloes. These “Ghost Shirts” they believed would protect them from the bluecoats’ bullets. During the fall of 1890, the Ghost Dance spread through the Sioux villages of the Dakota reservations, revitalizing the Indians and bringing fear to the whites. A desperate Indian Agent at Pine Ridge wired his superiors in Washington, “Indians are dancing in the snow and are wild and crazy….We need protection and we need it now. The leaders should be arrested and confined at some military post until the matter is quieted, and this should be done now.” The order went out to arrest Chief Sitting Bull at the Standing Rock Reservation. Sitting Bull was killed in the attempt on December 15. Chief Big Foot was next on the list.
When he heard of Sitting Bull’s death, Big Foot led his people south to seek protection at the Pine Ridge Reservation. The army intercepted the band on December 28 and brought them to the edge of the Wounded Knee to camp. The next morning the chief, racked with pneumonia and dying, sat among his warriors and powwowed with the army officers. Suddenly the sound of a shot pierced the early morning gloom. Within seconds the charged atmosphere erupted as Indian braves scurried to retrieve their discarded rifles and troopers fired volley after volley into the Sioux camp. From the heights above, the army’s Hotchkiss guns raked the Indian teepees with grapeshot. Clouds of gun smoke filled the air as men, women and children scrambled for their lives. Many ran for a ravine next to the camp only to be cut down in a withering cross fire.
When the smoke cleared and the shooting stopped, approximately 300 Sioux were dead, Big Foot among them. Twenty-five soldiers lost their lives. As the remaining troopers began the grim task of removing the dead, a blizzard swept in from the North. A few days later they returned to complete the job. Scattered fighting continued, but the massacre at Wounded Knee effectively squelched the Ghost Dance movement and ended the Indian Wars.
While the number of dead in Orlando at the hands of an ISIS sycophant is large, the massacre at Wounded Knee is larger. The greatest massacre in the history of the United States is ongoing: the 55 million aborted babies with the blessing of the government. How else would you characterize a government which condones the sale of butchered baby parts?
Be prepared for more attacks. While some are calling this a false flag, I believe that there are other issues that should not be dropped in the “news cycle”.
We will need faith in order to persevere with honor and courage in the coming months.
All decent people are sickened over the terrorist attack in Orlando last night. If this doesn’t demonstrate the need for American citizens to be armed, I don’t know what does. I don’t know for sure, but I assume the place where this happened was a “gun free zone,” where law-abiding people were not allowed to be armed. I’m sure it was against the law for the idiot who shot over a hundred people to have his guns in there, too. That law did not prevent him from doing it, and did not save one life.
That’s the point we need to get through the thick skulls of a lot of anti-gun activists. CRIMINALS AND TERRORISTS DO NOT OBEY GUN LAWS!!! THAT’S WHY OUR CITIZENS NEED TO BE ARMED!!! If just a few of the citizens in that place had been armed, they could have stopped this guy long before the police got there and before he killed or wounded over a hundred people.
There are a lot of anti-gun activists who just don’t get this. They don’t understand that a gun never commits a crime. It is the criminal or terrorist who does that, and honest citizens have the right to be armed in order to protect themselves and each other from the bad guys. The problem is that too many in our government want to stop us from being armed for self defense, not for the sake of safety (that would be an obvious contradiction) but because they know that an armed citizenry cannot be controlled by tyrants.
I saw where some misinformed persons raised the idea that my Gun Rights Amendment was put forward by Republicans in response to this incident or in response to the ruling against concealed carry by the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals. That shows a lack of knowledge of the facts. I have tried to run a Gun Rights Amendment every year since I got to Raleigh. So this is the fourth version of it. I filed the bill last Thursday. The terrorist attack in Orlando did not happen until Saturday night. I didn’t hear about the Ninth Circuit ruling until I was on my way home from Raleigh on Thursday afternoon. I had this bill in the works in Bill Drafting for several weeks before it was ready for filing. It takes too long to get a bill ready for introduction for me to have done this in response to either of these incidents, especially one that happened two days after I filed the bill.
The incident in Orlando does make the point of my proposed amendment to the NC Constitution very clearly. Especially in these times, our people need to be armed. Yes, we should all seek proper training and practice if we are going to be armed; but an armed citizenry is essential to freedom and would be a real deterrent to criminals and terrorists. Of course the Ninth Circuit ruling also highlights the urgency of the moment for standing up for our rights to keep and bear arms. A government that would disarm honest citizens is a government that cannot be trusted and should not be.
Omar Mateen called the cops to pledge his fealty to ISIS as he was carrying out his mass murderer in Orlando early Sunday morning. Twelve hours later, the president of the United States declared that “we have no definitive assessment on the motivation” of Omar Mateen but that “we know he was a person filled with hate.”
So I guess the president thinks Mateen didn’t mean it?
Here again, and horribly, we have an unmistakable indication that Obama finds it astonishingly easy to divorce himself from a reality he doesn’t like — the reality of the Islamist terror war against the United States and how it is moving to our shores in the form of lone-wolf attacks.
He called it “terror,” which it is. But using the word “terror” without a limiting and defining adjective is like a doctor calling a disease “cancer” without making note of the affected area of the body — because if he doesn’t know where the cancer is and what form it takes, he cannot attack it effectively and seek to extirpate it.
While the above article is the author’s opinion, Obama’s speech today did not inspire confidence in his ability to stop future attacks or any intent to stop his Immivasion of the country with Muslims. I believe this one event will impact the election. However, I also believe there will be more attacks throughout the summer.
The Obama administration has created a “resettlement surge center” which has produced a pouring of 100 Syrian refugees in the U.S. per day. The very real risk to Americans – the lack of proper vetting of these individuals by the quick processing that is being done, almost all of them reported to be Muslims.
Over 100 Syrian refugees have been admitted every day in June according to the federal government’s own database from the Refugee Processing Center. More than 1,000 were admitted in May. The rate of those admitted has sky-rocketed when compared to the 3,755 accepted in fiscal year 2016.
The Conservative Review reported these numbers, and that approximately 100-250 were admitted during the first six months of fiscal year 2016. It noted that the Associated Press reported in April that the federal government set up a “resettlement surge center” in Amman, Jordan in February. The center is now interviewing approximately 600 people a day.
The “vetting” process, already questioned by leaders in the country, has been fast-tracked from 18-24 months to just three months. The “refugee mill” can now go through thousands of applications every month.
Those who deny plain facts, and ignore the warnings which islam itself has been giving us for years, have crossed the line which divides useful idiots from legitimate enemies of our Republic.
What has been happening in Europe for over a decade has now come to our country, our home – the most obscene and wanton violence, committed by muslims, in the name of their religion.
As I have previously pointed out, there are no “moderate muslims”, because *ALL* muslims are obliged to support Jihad – that is, “Holy War” – upon all infidels (non-muslims) everywhere. To muslims the entire world is divided into only two “houses” – those places where islamic sharia law is enforced are the “Dar Al’ Islam” – which translates to “The house of Submission”; and the rest of the world is “Dar Al’ Harb”, which literally means “The House of War”.
All of Europe and all of North America are Dar Al’ Harb – and thus are considered “legitimate battlegrounds” by all muslim leaders and scholars. As such, **EVERY MUSLIM** is obligated to do what they can to bring war to the Western World. Not every muslim will strap on a bomb or pick up a gun, but every muslim *MUST* contribute to the Jihad, the war which will bring all of Europe and America under the authority of the mullahs and their Sharia Law. Period. At the very minimum, their tithe to the mosque is used to fund Jihad. But many will provide other forms of support for Jihadi activities – helping those who will commit violent acts of Jihad to obscure their purchases, movements, and preparations to engage in violence. In short, every mosque is an enemy armory, safe house, and funding center. Period. Because that is what is required of ALL muslims.
Islam is not a legitimate “religion”. It is a system of tyranny and abuse from it’s very founding, and to it’s very core, as I have previously presented. And also here.
Neither islam as a “religious system”, nor those who profess to be muslims, can be rehabilitated in any fashion such that they would be compatible with living in Western Society. They must be turned out – out of our communities, out of our nation, and ultimately out of our entire world.
Those who will not go voluntarily, must be disposed of by the use of force. Period. Those who find such a statement to be obscene or excessive must understand, that THIS IS THE EXACT POLICY WHICH ISLAM HOLDS TOWARDS ALL NON-MUSLIMS, in the entire world. ISLAM ACCEPS ONLY TWO OUTCOMES – CONVERSION TO ISLAM, AND DEATH OF THE KAFIR (UNBELIEVER).
Witness the meteoric rise of rape and other violent crime in Sweden – which has risen in direct proportion to the number of ‘muslim refugees’ which they have taken in over the past 15 years. Germany, France, and Britain are also facing the same explosive rise in rape, assault, robbery, and other violence as their muslim population has increased in recent years.
I will say this plainly – anyone who denies that the exact same problems are already developing in the US as a result of our taking in such “muslim refugees” is engaged in Kitman – that is, they are lying for the express purpose of promoting and assisting in the destruction of civil society in America, towards the specific end of establishing islam as the mandatory religion of the US, and the replacement of our civil law with the muslim Sharia.
Authorities in Santa Monica found possible explosives as well as assault rifles and ammunition Sunday in the car of a man who told them he was in town for the L.A. Pride festival in West Hollywood, a law enforcement source said.
Early Sunday, Santa Monica police received a call of a suspected prowler near Olympic Boulevard and 11th Street. Patrol officers responded and encountered an individual who told officers he was waiting for a friend. That led officers to inspect the car and find several weapons and a lot of ammunition as well as tannerite, an ingredient that could be used to create a pipe bomb.
The car had Indiana plates. The man made comments that he was in town for the Pride event in West Hollywood this weekend. The source said authorities did not know of any connection between the gay nightclub shooting in Orlando, Fla., early Sunday morning and the Santa Monica incident. The investigation has been taken over by the FBI. The source said the man appeared to be white.
