F*CK me.

50 dead, 53 injured.

Grayson showed up and actually did a decent job of NOT blaming the gun.

It is going to thoroughly piss me off when the "official" verdict is that he was a lone wolf.
Then the POS POTUS is going to drive the point home for us all.

Shedique's son Omar Mateen is the shooter. Not exactly an Irish name.

Me too.
You and others may be embarrassed. Then there are others who've been to a war zone and have seen some shit. We may seem callous and uncaring, however, we look for the source of the shit. Now continue on with your embarrassment.

I think we all recognize the tragedy. So don't even go there. TPTB will politically spin it. Or as one of my close friends that I just talked to said, "they will throw shit in our face and tell us it's pancake batter". They will blame the gun, or anything else so they can to try and steer the public opinion towards not calling islam what it is. It's a damn death cult, and nothing else. We all understand what a tragedy this is. Hundreds if not thousands of people will suffer as a result of this act of complete cowardice.

The victim count in Paris was 130 with 7 attackers also killed. The victim count in Orlando, so far, is 50 with one attacker killed. Yet, the carnage to be seen inside will be mind bending for just about everyone.

Interesting poses in NYPD shirts.

I'm sure there's a story there somewhere too.

Obama will simply provide a nationwide punch line to his joke of a presidency.

Man with weapons arrested in California ahead of Gay Pride parade, report says

Assault rifles, ammunition and materials that could be used to create explosives were found by Santa Monica authorities early Sunday morning in the car of a man who said he was in town for a Gay Pride parade, The Los Angeles Times reported.

The arrest comes just hours after a shooter opened fire on a gay nightclub in Orlando, killing 50 people and wounding at least 53 more before dying in a firefight with police.

While investigating a suspected prowler, Santa Monica patrol officers on Sunday encountered an individual who said he was waiting for a friend, The LA Times reported. When officers inspected the man’s car, they found the weapons and ammunition cache as well as tannerite, a binary explosive that could be used to create a pipe bomb.

The man allegedly told authorities he was in town for Sunday’s pride parade in West Hollywood. The car had Indiana license plates.

There was no immediate link between the Santa Monica incident and the Orlando massacre, officials said before the pride parade began.

The investigation was taken over by the FBI.

Sheriff’s officials have stepped up security around the parade and other activities, West Hollywood City Councilwoman Lindsey Horvath said in a statement.

"We are safe, we are protected, our law enforcement officials are here," LA Mayor Eric Garcetti said.

we take the war to them in the middle east, no attacks on US soil.

We pull out of the middle east, and now we're a punching bag all over the US.

How blind can Obumma be?

The shooter worked for a security company since 2007. A UK company with clearance at airports and Federal buildings.

People want to think these are peaceful people. Sleeper cells are not the invention of tin foil hat people. They are real and it happens.

I have said this half jokingly, but consider the damage to civilians if the signal goes out and EVERY convenience store owner comes up with a weapon from behind the counter and kills anyone in the store.

You can laugh, and it may seem far fetched, but how far-fetched would you have thought flying two planes into WTC 1 and 2 was 20 years ago?

They walk among us NOW and more are being invited in by liberal idiots just so they can spend 4 years at the big people table.

You can hate Trump all you want BUT, he's our best shot at stopping this BS.
