Hey IMDB, why did you take Omar Mateen out of the credits?

Got something to hide, guys? Did your masters in the Deep State (NSA, CIA) tell you to get rid of him? Did you think we wouldn't notice?

For all of you users, Omar Mateen, the Orlando Pulse Club shooter, is in this documentary. Up until a couple of days ago, he was listed in the credits here on this page. Now *poof* he's gone.

If you don't believe me, watch the documentary. If you don't believe that he was listed in the credits, watch this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-FrBT5KiFis

You IMDB administrators really are scum.

Go ahead and delete this post. I'll put it right back up.

Before they scrubbed it. He was an actor. Something tells me now he was a Manchurian Candidate, but for who?

His page is complete 404 now. No record at all.

1. Anyone can edit IMDB. Just because someone put his name there doesn't mean he was in it.

2. There are dozens of people with just about every name imaginable. If an Omar Mateen was in the movie it doesn't mean it was him.

3. He didn't show a video clip with Mateen in the movie, he showed a picture Google turned up in a search. There was no proof that picture was actually from the movie.

4. Most importantly, this is a goddamned documentary. Most people in documentaries are not actors.

I don't know if the link will show up. He was in the film. I'm not a conspiracy theorist or some crazy nut. Plain and simple fact. He was in it.

As far as the other alleged credits they probably were not true. IMDb has over reacted and wiped the slate clean. Hopefully they change it back to reflect the facts.

Thanks for the clip. However here's a question for you: in a documentary in which a random non-celebrity person is encountered by the camera crew and speaks to them for 30 seconds without his name appearing on screen, is that person usually listed in the credits of the film? In my experience, no.

I don't know the answer to whether or not he should be in the credits. Other people, in other forums not on IMDb, have said that if he didn't sign a release they shoulda blurred out his face. If they got him to sign a release to use him in the documentary The Big Fix maybe he should be in the credits.

"1. Anyone can edit IMDB. Just because someone put his name there doesn't mean he was in it."

Like I said, Einstein, watch the documentary.

"2. There are dozens of people with just about every name imaginable. If an Omar Mateen was in the movie it doesn't mean it was him."

Again, watch the documentary.

"3. He didn't show a video clip with Mateen in the movie, he showed a picture Google turned up in a search. There was no proof that picture was actually from the movie."

For the third time, watch the documentary.

"4. Most importantly, this is a goddamned documentary. Most people in documentaries are not actors."

So, watch the documentary and see for yourself.

The fact that you're taking the time to rationalize all this when you could go and see for yourself tells me that you don't really care about the truth.
