Re: They're now using Orlando as an excuse? Really?

Using Orlando as an excuse is particular galling because all evidence points to this guy acting alone, with perhaps his wife as being aware of his plans and not stopping it, but not really aiding him either. Critically, there wasn't any communication between him and ISIS or other home grown radicals so even if the FBI had perfect surveillance of all electronic communication it wouldn't have helped them stop this one.
