quote [ Police confirmed that a number of people had been killed in the attack - in the ?vicinity of 20? - but refused to give a toll. They added that 42 people had been taken to hospital and confirmed the gunman was armed with an assault rifle, handgun and ?some kind of device?.
In a press conference on Sunday morning, an FBI spokesman said investigators believed the attacker may have had extremist beliefs, and would consider possible links to Isis, but cautioned they were pursuing multiple leads. ] Shit.

"One witness told Sky News there were more than 100 people inside the venue for the club?s Latin night when the gunman entered the building and began firing into the ceiling and into the crowd. He could not confirm if there was only one or multiple gunman. Anthony Torres told Sky News he was outside the club when the shooting began and confirmed that he thought more than one person was involved in the attack. He believed the shooting lasted between 15 and 20 minutes."

I very politely pointed out that Dylan Roof’s attack on the Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church was not an incidence of “Christian Terrorism”, and that was deemed, a “troll” “self link”. In fact WeiYang’s s suggestion of equivalency between this horrific event, and the actions of "peace Loving Christians?" – is ripe with denial.
My suggestion that religion is a better rubric to classify this story than either politics nor business – hardly a radical notion, was deemed to be “bad” “flamebait”.
Likewise, moronic comments like this:
“If white politicians are advocating for laws against LGBT all the fucking time is not justification enough for like minded people...”
and this:
“This guy had more in common with our conservative politicians.”
Are further examples to trying to focus on anything but the truth of the event.
But then, it’s all there in the tread - and more - so why do I need to cut and paste it for you.
