Gunshots rang out at an Orlando, Fla., gay club, striking at least 20 people early Sunday, according to a WESH-TV report. A witness saw what appeared to be one assailant opening fire with a semi-automatic firearm inside the nightclub and another outside the south Orlando venue from a vehicle. “We were just leaving the club and we started hearing the shots,” clubber Anthony Torres told the Daily News. “Everyone was running and screaming.”

Twitter is full of reactionary emotional millenials who want to do something. They listen to what liberals in colleges, the media, Democrats, etc. say and think if they ban guns that these things will never happen again. It’s emotionalism as opposed to critical thinking.

Rumors are that it is religion of peace, and related to a dispute between gay bars and a nearby Islamic Center.

100% rumors for now.

You ever read the UK Daily Mail and see how many Brits are obsessed with our gun laws?

“Assault rifle” mentioned here:

http://www.eturbonews.com/71999/shooter-pulse-nightclub-orlando-dead-after-shooting-40-plus-youn

This post to Pulse’s facebook summarizes it all:
here was a shooter with an assault rifle who shot up the people in the club sometime around 2am. The club is reported to have been at full capacity. The shooter has himself barricaded inside Pulse with multiple hostages. This is per a private source. Initial assessment and estimate was at least 20 red tagged patients per OFD. They are prepared to take 20 trauma alerts at ORMC. Yellow and green tag patients will be welcome at florida hospital east. Florida hospital orlando has taken on two red tags so far. They have reached out to seminole fire and rescue and placed their units on standby. Orlando sounds like they are charge. They just made ballistic vests available to the fire and ems first responders in the red zone. The walking wounded are walking to a treatment area behind Einstein bagels. All that info is from a police scanner. And being updated as it happens

Just showed footage of cops loading injured into pickup truck beds to rush them to Arnold Palmer Children’s Hospital. Still nobody going into club, now sending robot into front door. Still developing.

Oh, the irony if this is the religion of pieces. What will the left do if one of their protected class used, gasp, an assault rifle to target gays? They will twist themselves in knots over this..

Interesting rumors. But hypothetically, if gays are gunned down by Islamists, will the media tell us that we have to ask what made them angry?

This could really push the queer vote to Trump. Good work, ragheads!

I’m surprised they haven’t speculated yet that the shooter was a white male Tea Party Trump Supporting homophobe.
