We need to put an end to this.We've had enough of these horrors.
This guy had access to a military grade weapon for crying out loud.

His ex-wife claims he beats her up,was violent and unstable.

My question remains?

How did someone under FBI's radar have access to an AR-51
Good question ?. You know how easy it is to get guns in US. Even in Illinois that's a Blue State, believe me, it's very easy. Don't know what can be done about that. I used to go to a Gun Range once in a while, and you will be surprised the kind of weapons some of this weirdo comes in with. I think the Ship has left the Port when it comes to Gun Laws in America. That's why I get my concealed and carry permit because I have a duty to protect my family.

Hillary's Message.

I join Americans in praying for the victims of the attack in Orlando, their families and the first responders who did everything they could to save lives. This was an act of terror. Law enforcement and intelligence agencies are hard at work, and we will learn more in the hours and days ahead.

For now, we can say for certain that we need to redouble our efforts to defend our country from threats at home and abroad. That means defeating international terror groups, working with allies and partners to go after them wherever they are, countering their attempts to recruit people here and everywhere, and hardening our defenses at home.

It also means refusing to be intimidated and staying true to our values. This was also an act of hate. The gunman attacked an LGBT nightclub during Pride Month. To the LGBT community: please know that you have millions of allies across our country. I am one of them. We will keep fighting for your right to live freely, openly and without fear. Hate has absolutely no place in America.

Finally, we need to keep guns like the ones used last night out of the hands of terrorists or other violent criminals. This is the deadliest mass shooting in the history of the United States and it reminds us once more that weapons of war have no place on our streets.

This is a time to stand together and resolve to do everything we can to defend our communities and country.

Breaking news. The muslim terrorist who killed 50 people in a gay club in the US is a registered democrat.

Probably a fan of hillary's

As a nation,we've lost faith in our humanity to do the right thing which is respecting each other and diligently contributing to the peace and safety of our communities.Do guns help keep us safe?I'd say maybe but other times guns are not the solution to rising threats like this.

Toxic hate and bigotry is the real problem.We need to redefine who we really are as a nation and not give into fear of violence and terror.We need to deal with the root cause of terrorism and gun violence and that bemoans we enact laws that if not necessarily stops them,at least reduces the rates at which these horrific incidents occur.

My mom called me some minutes ago and authoritatively told me I must get guns in every corner of my home if I want to keep my family safe.I got rid of my last gun cause am expecting my kids and I had fear of them crawling up to where I keep it without my knowing and the bad happens.Now I'm being forced to reconsider these stance once again cause of the potential dangers of crazy men out there.

This goes to show how far we've come on what defines our safety.You ask me,guns don't keep us safe,our collective efforts to build a society of respect and togetherness does.A society where hate is rooted out and not preached or tolerated.Though this is not enough to these crazy guys but in the United States of America,Love Trumps Hate.That should be our ultimate goal always. Maybe just maybe we can reshape the minds of these killers and deter them from their actions.

You are just as terrible as your leader Trump.Using this as a shot for campaign.How about you take out time to respect the dead?Here you are being all hypocritical,and politically misinformed.
Re: American Politics Lounge - Donald Trump Is US President-Elect ! by stanech: 9:00pm On Jun 12, 2016
What americans need is not Gun control but rather a control on radical Islamic terrorism.

Hey I have asked you to stop quoting me. What's your problem?

Respect which dead? How many times do we have to deal with these senseless killings because the democrats have refused to see that these muslim are just a ticking time bomb waiting to explode.

How many times do we have to go through the same respecting the dead and pray for them while these satanist muslims continue to kill innocent people?
Re: American Politics Lounge - Donald Trump Is US President-Elect ! by ValerianSteel(m): 9:15pm On Jun 12, 2016
From her FB page.This is exactly what I'm talking about.

Events like this shows the need for education on diversity in are schools and in society. When I can out to my family I told them don't be afraid to ask questions. I would rather have an open conversation to create an understanding then to have people live in ignorance or fear of what they don't know. We need to build mutual respect for everyone no matter who they love or believe. We are all equal! Thank you Hillary for your support in the LGBT community!
Re: American Politics Lounge - Donald Trump Is US President-Elect ! by stanech: 9:22pm On Jun 12, 2016
Obama is the worst: calling the killing in florida is hate crime? These are people carrying out allahs instruction they are Radical Islamic Terrorists.

Taking Guns from Law abiding citizens will not reduce or stop radical islam take for example the Brusels attacks

You are right Buddy. I don't care for guns myself but I ended up being a gun owner when I think of my wife and three young ladies and a junior. As sad as it is, that's our society. I have a carry and concealed permit but i don't carry it on me but I dare anyone to break in my house. The funny thing is that I am the dovish guy on the block. I do trave often and I will be damned if I would let someone harm my family. I hope Americans have a rethink about the guns proliferation. The second amendment has been bastardized and I figured that you have to join them if you can't beat them. Hopefully, something positive will come out of this unthinkable tragedy.

Message by Senator Elizabeth Warren.

e mourn those lost in Orlando this weekend, and our heart goes out to the victims, families and loved ones touched by this horrific tragedy.

As President Obama said: This was an act of terror and hate. But we face a choice – as individuals, as a community, and as a country. A choice about whether to come together as one people and live our values, or a choice to splinter, turn on each other, and turn on our values in fear.

America is strongest when we are united. It is strongest when we celebrate our diversity. It is strongest when we promote those values abroad and live them here at home. When we love each other. That’s the message of Pride. And that’s how we defeat hate, and how we protect America.

Miss Stein would be the Green Party nominee.

i strongly believe d incident of mass shooting of gays in orlando was planned and staged by american govt. Immediately afta d incident, d american media termed it "hate". They are sending a message. Very soon, if u hate gays, u will be regarded a terrorist. D govt is pushing it gradually. They wil use it to campaign against trump because he seems to be a racist. They wil tell americans d terrorist who shot those pple is not different from mr. trump who also hates blacks and muslims.

Amen. I am sure about the Senate but the House is going to be close according to the analysts. Hopefully the Tramp one will keep sticking his foot in his mouth. One thing for sure is that he will damage the Republican brand for at least a generation and that's to my delight.
