Omar Mateen appeared in a documentary about the BP oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico — and was unwittingly caught on camera insulting the people working to clean up the mess.
Mateen’s brief appearance in “The Big Fix” is the first known video footage of the man who would commit the deadliest shooting in modern American history. A hidden camera captured Mateen on the job, working as a guard for the security company G4S.
He appears 36 minutes into the 2012 movie.
Filmmaker Rebecca Tickell records Mateen on a hidden camera as he works night security detail near a Gulf Coast beach in 2010. She pretends to be an oblivious civilian, curious about the work being done to clean up the spill.
"...no one gives a # here, everyone is just out to get paid, they're like hoping for more oil to come out and more people to complain so they'll have jobs. Because once people get laid off here, it's going to suck for them. They want more disaster to happen because that's where they're money-making is. It's all about the money"

I'm getting an error, appears video is down.
That shouldn't add any fuel to the fire or anything.

If by what you were expecting you mean totally "Americanized"? Yeah. I think that will floor a lot of people who might tend to stereotype Muslims.

You might be right, but my first thought was that he was acting - it really is convenient for the filmmaker to come across this guard that not only not tells her to get lost, when she asks to see the workers, but instead starts to say EXACTLY what fits the narrative of the film.
I always find such things highly suspect.
