Largest mass shooting in US history, atleast 50 dead 53 injured

I'm still quite shocked that a homophobic attack like this took place in the USA of all places, though. Of course it's all speculation at this point, but the fact it took place during a pride event and the attacker's own father thinks it was motivated by homophobia doesn't look good.

Why not both?

Im guessing he was an ISIS sympathizer who had a breakdown cause he realized he was gay. What isnt a guess is this dumbasses face is gonna be plastered all over the place for awhile, and not one victim will be put to memory.

Edit in - Damn Sexy we posted that at the same time.

Right -- they take gays and throw them off buildings for being gay.

if its not about religion,thats what i would think aswell.

lots of great takes in this thread based on absolutely no information.

THIS!

and they`ll give him some kind of halfassed nickname like the Gay Pride Killer.

If he's ISIS and gay, they'll have to call him the ISISSY.

And you just nailed one of my biggest issues with the media.

so nice of you people to be trying to find non religious explanations to this act--like conflicted gay etc . so liberal....

tell you what--i am proud of ya all

I put his pictures up in case people hadn't seen them -- and to shame him. I'm kinda tired of people going, "DON'T SHOW HIS PICTURE!" I believe in showing everything.

That is not the issue. We give more airtime to the shooters and not the victims. My issue is not with you Sexy. It is with the mainstream media.

Gotta keep that green rolling in, GS. What would you rather? News or something?


So am I. I'd have this happen everyday if we could keep living this way.

Oh, yes. Let's just have a shooting/terrorist attack everyday.

I'm not dismissing the fact that the shooter most likely was motivated by Jihadist ISIS terror attacks.

But it's odd he choose a gay bar. I haven't heard of gays being targeted by Islamic extremest before.

So it would seem his choice was a personal choice based on some demented anger issues about gays.

Yeah, that's really not what I said at all. Don't be a dick with this.

what? arnt gays being thrown from buildings and the likes?

I am not at all surprised that he attacked a gay club.

Not at all surprised.

I've been expecting this kind of thing to happen. And I will direly predict that more of this is going to happen if Hillary Clinton gets elected. It's already been horrendous all during President Barack Obama's term.

These people are religious extremists. They don't like gay people. They don't like how accepting we've been of gay and transgender people in America. We're pissing them off and they're showing us how much they don't like it through acts like what happened last night in Orlando, Florida.

Gays are targeted and executed in the middle east. Several countries in the middle east have the death penalty for homosexuality.
