Miami FOP Lodge# 20 We Support The LGBT Community & Not Radical Islam

The Miami Fraternal Order of Police would like to extend our condolences and support to the victims of
the act of terrorism that targeted the LGBT community in Orlando. We have reached out to our law
enforcement partners in Orlando and are ready at a moments notice to respond to assist in any way that
we can. We pray that the law enforcement officer who was injured has a speedy recovery.
Many are afraid to speak against Radical Islam and how it is negatively affecting our nation. Those that
support Radical Islam publicly and privately express their hate towards the LGBT community, those with
different religious views and the like.
Well, I will say it. If you are a supporter of Radical Islam, you are an enemy of the United States and of
law enforcement. This terrorist had a Florida Security Officer and a firearms license. It appears to be time
for our state legislators to step up to the plate and pass legislation to have better background checks to
those given these types of licenses.
We ask the community to remain vigilant and contact their local law enforcement agency if they see any
suspicious activity.

Sincerely,

Javier Ortiz
Javier Ortiz, President
Miami Fraternal Order of Police, Lodge #20
