If the FBI has Muslim communities riddled with informants but they don't catch the guy who REALLY WILL kill 50, what purpose do they serve?

Were FBI's informants too focused on Mateen's consumption of Islamic culture and not on his homophobic self-hate?

I mostly agree, but homophobic self-hate can be really hard to detect.

I think it's also definitely possible FBI said, "closeted, sexuality, don't go there."

Overwhelmingly I think people who are closeted eventually come out and are fine. Almost none turn violent.
