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.
