It's a terrorist attack.

They don't like gay people, so they're coming to kill us.

Been watching this story on the News this morning. It's just awful.

RIP :(

Think I just heard Los Angeles has a Gay Pride Parade today.... June is, like, Gay Pride Month everywhere. That's when they have the parades. Let's hope there's not another attack.

They do think there's a connection to ISIS.

Last article I saw about this only listed 20 dead. It was completely horrifying then, but seeing that number more than double is just unfathomable.

Requiescecat in pace.

Horrendous :(

Terrible and tragic...

What drives a person to shoot down that amount of people, gay or not, woman or man, whoever... Just killing 50+ innocent individuals is frightening. And the fact that you can't feel safe anywhere. Here you are having fun at a nightclub and suddenly this happens.

Rest in piece to all who lost their life to people like this.

ISIS.

Terrorists are cowards. They never attack where anyone can possibly defend themselves. Im glad they put him down.

You know what? Why be glad? I'm sure he expected to die, anyway. He got what he wanted.

Would have been better to keep him alive and torture him for the rest of his life.

According to the shooter's father it doesn't have anything to do with any connection to terrorist groups. His son saw two men kissing about a month or so ago and the father thinks that's what triggered the incident.

I'm hearing he pledged allegiance to ISIS. ISIS groups are celebrating right now, too.

What's even more shocking is that he had those guns because he worked in security.

Everyone thinks this is just about guns -- it's not.
