If only those people could provide some evidence.
How do you provide evidence that you talked to someone who is now dead?
Do you go around filming your interactions between people?
If there are communications between them and mateen, there is a record of it.
Records can be faked. It's the digital age. Photographs can be photo-shopped. Emails can be artificially inserted into the computer records.
Maybe one of them can come forward with their proof that they were in fact having sexual and/or romantic contact with Mateen.
Maybe if one of them was clever like Bill Clinton's Mistress, and kept some clothes with spilled semen on it, they could do some DNA testing and prove this. But, who goes around collecting semen from lovers, when those lovers aren't somebody important like the President of the US?
Why are witness statements not valid in this case?
We use them in courts all the time.
. . . the FBI says they haven't come across any.
What is the name of the FBI agent/director who stated this?
You have neglected to read the multiple articles covering this exact topic.
You have bought into an unsubstantiated story about Omar being gay. No one making this claim has come forward with any proof of this. It's so unfounded that you can't even connect dots to make a conspiracy out of it. Yet, it sounds nice to you that he was a frustrated closeted gay instead of a boogeymonster. Evidence points towards a more obvious explanation, but why look at that when you can continue to believe in and spread a lie?
You can't hide under the covers forever.

Maybe you ought to work on your reading comprehension then.
Your pyrrhonian approach serves no purpose and, if you really think that way, I have to wonder why you even bother to post in these threads.

I gave you all my news links.
You gave none.
Except you keep referring to emotional appeals to divert the issue away from what the news actually says.
Why can't you back up your claim of evidence with at least one reference?
Just one "proof" that Mateen wasn't gay, but was an Islamic Jihadist would be enough.
I gave you several reports that say he was just gay.
Why is it so important to you that he was just an Islamic Terrorist?
Personally, I couldn't care less which type of person he was. But, the overwhelming news reports suggest gay.
I'm puzzled by the need to label this gay guy a terrorist, rather than just an angry man with a grudge against that particular club.

You want everyone else to disprove the unsubstantiated claims that he's gay?

They are using a paparazzi site such as TMZ for their source...and you think they are credible?
And exactly what makes this man Miguel so credible as to believe he is telling the truth...since you seem to nelieve him?
Kevin West had first told the Los Angeles Times he talked with Mateen on the gay dating app, Jack’d, for a year.
"It's almost certain that he covered his tracks," West told the Orlando Sentinel in response to the FBI’s anonymous quotes. "Lots of people are still secretive about it. They say they don't show their face online because, 'I'm not out to my family, or because of my career.'"
In other words, the FBI is naive if it really expected to find gay dating apps on Mateen’s phone, or anything in his Internet browsing history, or any saved photos from others, or gay porn on his phone — all things someone anonymously cited when telling the Los Angeles Times the FBI hadn’t turned up reason to believe Mateen led a secret life. People in the closet would be careful not to have left such an obvious trail. But, it’s not actually clear why the FBI claims it hasn’t found any evidence, because it hasn’t revealed what it checked on the record.
When asked on the record, both attorney general Loretta Lynch and Ron Hopper, the assistant special agent from the FBI who is in charge of the FBI joint terrorism task force, have said allegations are still being vetted and no determination has been made. www.advocate.com...

Some hotel claims to have video recorded two years ago?!! Really?!!! That is preposterous.
I don't. The gay peg does not fit the Muslim hole. So to speak. It doesn't fit the Islamic terrorist narrative.

I gotta tell you, I find it incredibly weird that some have to insist he isn't/wasn't gay.
