On Monday the father of Orlando club shooter Omar Mateen sat behind Hillary Clinton at her Florida rally waving the American flag. The optic was alarming and puzzling to many commentors online. Omar Mateen died in a shoot out with police after he massacred 49 at Pulse Night Club. U.S. Senator Bill Nelson, who introduced Clinton at the event later said Seddique Mateen's presence there was "unconscienable." The Clinton campaign said in a statement they did not invite Mr. Mateen and did not know he was there. The rally was open to the public. Nearly 3,000 people attended.
