Sciency

Did the poster think that victims would stop to check for FB posts while in the midst of a barrage of gunfire; or was it posted for the sake of the narrative?

Its possible he wasn't thinking clearly, or was trying to save people who might be heading in that direction. I'm not sure what orlando is like, but I've seem clubs that still have people rolling in around 2am, even if there isn't drink to be drank. Also possible he was trying to save face for his business.

The problem with this is that Orlando bars are required to have all alcohol out of the hands of guests at 2:00am.

Is there any indication what time the shooting started? Can anyone verify what time the facebook post was made? I know facebook uses the computer's on board clock to timestamp posts in their local timezone, so its possible the timestamp might be from the wrong timezone. I remember this time confusion being used as an argument for conspiracy during the boston bombings, and was later debunked. That wasn't good for the rest of the argument, even though it had substance. Might be good to fact check times first, before we get too entrenched.

The 2:00 am rule prevents the sale of alcohol past that hour. It doesn't mean you can't have the alcohol already purchased.

Well, there's a conspiracy for you, then; because the ABT claims that they can't prove when the alcohol was purchased and (therefore) it should all be taken away by 2:00am. I've seen people buy multiple drinks and insist upon sitting around for hours until they are all gone.

I suppose this is the same reason that you can be arrested for having a sea turtle skull or an eagle feather. You probably didn't kill that animal, but how do you prove it?

I'll call the agency, tomorrow, and get a definitive answer on what their current policy is; and I'm not adverse to being wrong.

I actually appreciate the skepticism.

A few. I have one for general things. One for my specific hobbies. One for developing a business that I am thinking about. And one for saying unpopular things that I didn't want to get my primary account trashed for. And, various throwaways, here and there.

Which feed?

I listen the feed for St. Lucie County , because that's where I live. I also listen to surrounding counties when something interesting happens, but I don't know their ten codes as well.

SLCLocal

Yes

Thank you! I live in the city of the shooter and have inside Pulse (in a confidential capacity). I also listen to the police scanner and have made numerous other interesting observations about the way all of this has gone down. I don't have an opinion, other than I know that we are not getting the truth. I've heard the police trying to suppress things being said over the scanner.

And, whether it is Muslims or the government, I'm a bit paranoid, because I'm seeing brand new black Expeditions (with blackout tint) suddenly driving up and down my quiet street; and I'm a long way from where shooter lived. A little bit freaked out by that.

According to this he went in right as last call was being announced and I looked it up and last call in Florida is at 2am so I'm not sure where the conspiracy is supposed to be with that.

SLCLocal

Last call isn't at 2:00. All alcohol is to be taken from guests by 2:00. Responsible bars do last call in time for the guests to get a drink and finish it before closing. Granted, a lot of bars break the rules; and I'm not surprised that Pulse would. I am surprised that they did it with a police officer at the door; which would indicate that it was condoned.

Thanks for the explanation. Admittedly, I have dragged my feet in making the changeover. Being banned on Reddit was the final straw. Was hoping that this was a place to exchange ideas about this incident.

I'm certainly not a shill; but I didn't know that I'd be attacked for questioning the narrative that we are given. I guess I'll read around and try to figure out what is acceptable to post.

Thanks again!

I've been in the bar business my whole career, and work directly in bars around the state. Orlando bars have been busted for letting people drink after hours. The ABT busted one by peeking through the door crack and seeing someone with a beer as they did their closeout.

Because when I tried to post this on Reddit, it got removed. I finally got fed up and am in the process of deleting all my Reddit accounts. I'm pretty sure that I have an older Voat acccount, but I have to search around for the login. Did I do something wrong?

Well he said nothing about jews so it is not Amalek and your are commenting about it and registereduser just posted something else. So who knows maybe it is the illuminati.
