You know it is PC gone crazy when the republican's chief apologist for muslims calls it out. Even Paul Ryan is appalled at Obama's latest effort to mislead the public about islam. http://www.foxnews.com/us/2016/06/20/doj-releases-redacted-orlando-gunmans-911-calls.html
It turns out the Orlando terrorist had rather lengthy phone conversations with the authorities as wounded people laying bleeding out inside the nightclub. This is where the curious three hour delay between the start of the attack and the final conclusion came from. One can rightfully fault the police for passivity, but no doubt they had legitimate considerations. One does wonder just how long they were prepared to wait however.
No such explanation can possibly apply to Obama's decision, foisted off on his incompetent AG Loretta Lynch, to delete embarrassing references to islam and muslim terrorists from the transcripts released to the public. Like Jack Nicholson told Tom Cruise in A Few Good Men, Obama must believe, "You can't handle the truth."
References to allah were apparently changed to "God." Others were redacted entirely.
Some FBI drone was trotted out to explain that it would be inappropriate to include the references since the shooter was not a valid representative of islam.
"Assistant Special Agent in Charge Ron Hopper defended the deletions.
"[Mateen] does not represent the religion of Islam, but a perverted view," Hopper said, later adding: "Part of the redacting is meant to not give credence to individuals who have done terrorist attacks in the past. We're not gonna propagate their violent rhetoric."

Good grief, at least now we are getting a window into the incredible PC mindset that apparently rules our security services. Everyone feel safer now?
