Posted by MohiniThat's why it happened
I have family there. My niece specifically.i n a club next to there.
Not trained in emergency medicine.
Not trained I handle this well.
She saw it and fell apart.
It's a tragedy
I can only ask why?
What does one gain from these acts? What fueled them? Why?
Life is so full of contradictions and this is not within mt u understanding.
I'd rather cut the news off and live in my happy bubble.

Posted by PotHeadVirgo27Yes, what they really needed was for a 100+ scared people to have assault rifles so when the gunman started shooting, everyone could pull out their own firearm and start wilding spraying bullets into the crowd possibly causing even more deaths.
Oh they're blaming guns again, typical.
No one in that nightclub had a gun except the gunman and 50 people still died.
This may come off as a bit too logical for some, but if someone else had a gun, 50 people wouldn't have died. Same thing with the shootings in Paris. No one there had a gun except the shooters, but 100 people still died. The police arrived afterwards.
Yeah after 100 people died. ***Head palm***

Posted by cheekyfaerieNo they're not the fools sucking off the NRA.Posted by MrFirebirdHow so? Hate crime and domestic terrorism have overlapping definitions. The latter is something you almost never saw in print. They were mostly "mentally unstable" white men. It wasn't until brown men started joining in on the fun that the words "domestic terrorism" started getting put in print. Liberals aren't the fools too busy sucking off the NRA to wanna do something about misuse of assault weapons.
This morning, the TV was on the local NBC affiliate — my wife is having a yard sale and wanted to check the weather — and the report was that about 20 people had been killed when a man armed with an assault rifle attacked a gay nightclub in Orlando. However, NBC said nothing about a motive. June is “Gay Pride” month and, honestly, my first thought was, “This is going to be a redneck homophobe.” Expecting the Left would turn this into a political crusade and find some way to blame Republicans, I checked Twitter and was at first doubtful when I saw reports that radical Islam might be the motive. Then the facts started piling up:
Omar Mateen has been named as the gunman involved in the mass shooting at Pulse nightclub in Orlando, CBS News reports.
Police said at least 20 people were killed and about 40 more were wounded in the attack early Sunday morning.
Mateen is a U.S. citizen from Port St. Lucie, Florida, according to CBS News. . . .
Mateen died at the scene after he was shot by police. He had barricaded himself in the nightclub after opening fire. . . .
FBI Assistant Special Agent-in-Charge Ron Hopper said at a press conference that there are “some suggestions” the gunman “may have leanings” toward Jihadist ideology. . . .
Well, the death toll in Orlando is now reported at 50, and liberals are unable to say anything about this without making fools of themselves.

Posted by cheekyfaerieThe more you talk the more ignorant you reveal yourself to be. Your focus is on this or that tiny detail, which you don't entirely understand because you cannot back
Disagree. Regulate ammo and all of a sudden it becomes harder to use these things for sport. And don't even get me started on the people stocking up for a revolution or a race war or a zombie apocalypse or whatever floats their boat. You guys are a whole other kind up crazy. Actually, it makes them exactly like the people they're trying to protect themselves from. Right down to their messed up ideologies. They'd be best friends if their version of god didn't tell them to hate each other.

Posted by SkyeStop
Btw, was the audio of the alleged 911 call ever released?
Please post. Thanks 🙂

Posted by EnochtheWisePretty much.Posted by MontgomeryWhen there are tighter gun laws, people will use other types of guns. They keep focusing on the AR-15 but the majority of shootings have been done with handguns. And I really don't see how it is a major advantage to use an AR-15 in a public shooting, other than the number of rounds you can fire without having to reload. Its a disadvantage in ways because it is harder to conceal (just how did he get in a club with this anyway). Ban that, and people will just find ways to make or illegally get extended mags that hold up to 50 rounds, or use multiple legal handguns w/extended mags that hold up to 20 rounds, etc. Ban guns in general and people will build bombs and do more damage.
"The shots did not sound like a regular handgun, it sounded like it was shooting
repetitively and it wouldn't stop," he said.
'... the Orlando Regional Medical Center was placed on lockdown, the hospital said
in a statement. Only essential workers are being allowed access into the building. '
Only 'essential workers' are being allowed into the building, due to caution?
Wtf are the victims radioactive?
And yeah, gun laws would have totally stopped this.
Just like they stopped all the violence in Europe.
That's sarcasm. ^

away from the obscene big picture.
You can kick scream shout and pout all you want. It's all coming to an end.
And there is NOTHING you can do about it.
You and like minds, are utterly helpless do anything but make noise.
All things, on schedule, on time. not a moment too soon, not a moment too late.

Posted by EnochtheWiseWell, Donald DID warn about this sort of thing happening, again, last fall, didn't he.Posted by MrFirebirdIts a 3fer1. Terrorism issue also.
Looks like we have 2fer1 political pitch-a-fit fest this election, this morning. Not only gun control but hey, why not throw in
an nice anti-gay-bashing-with-a-gun message in the mix as well.
You just watch, that's where the discussion focus is going to go
You can count on CNN to have up to the minute play by play.

Yes it just goes to show how little you know about weapons. You do realize many weapons use the same exact cartridge and caliper as the AR? You disagree because you don't have the wisdom to know the bigger picture at this point in your life. Again, there are many, many assault weapons ALREADY in law abiding citizens hands. Ban new sales, and the price just goes up for the used ones that transfer between individuals.click to expand


Posted by EnochtheWiseAnyone who pays the tax and files for a Class III firearms license. Mainly for dealers, but owners have to have this in order to own automatic weapons. This has been the case since 1934:Posted by ElleDuMondeWho owns automatic weapons?
There is zero logic to anyone owning an automatic weapon.
Zero.

Posted by CancerOnTheCuspCorrection, owners don't necessarily have to have the Class 3 license, but they still have to pay the tax and the firearm is registered to the owner.Posted by EnochtheWiseAnyone who pays the tax and files for a Class III firearms license.

Now, I am interested to see if the weapon was modified, but the sound on those recordings sounds like it was semi-automatic.click to expand
