Following the June 12 mass shooting at a gay nightclub in Orlando, Florida, the shooter's father described his son as "a good kid." In a video posted on Facebook, Seddique Mateen, the father of Omar Mateen, said he did not know what provoked the attack. Omar Mateen, a U.S.-born citizen of Afghan descent, was shot dead by police who stormed the nightclub where he had killed 50 people and wounded 53 others. (Facebook/Seddique Mateen)
