A gunman took multiple people hostage overnight inside Pulse nightclub in Orlando, where "multiple people" were killed and 42 were injured, Orlando Police Chief John Mina said at a morning news conference.

The gunman, who has not been identified, was carrying an assault rifle, a handgun and a "device." The Orange County Sheriff;s Office hazardous device team is now searching the area.

Dozens of emergency vehicles surrounded the chaotic scene at the club at 1912 S. Orange Ave. after the 2 a.m. shooting and rescue squads were transporting multiple victims to area hospitals.

Was there also going to be security outside to stop them from being shot as they left at the end of the night? Or from being bombed, having an SUV drove onto the sidewalk into them or having acid thrown in their faces?

I just don’t see security as the issue in cases like this. You can maybe protect a single individual a la the Secret Service, although even that didn’t work 100% with Reagan. But the idea of securing every random person out in public isn’t realistic.

> Police are calling it a terror incident per nbc washington,
> this is immediately classified as a terrorist incident, san > bernadino and many like it were not until days later, why?

It may be due to the difference between California and Florida.

If it was done by Muslims, the MSM just stamped “one-day story” on it. In fact they just assigned their reporters to investigate new material so they can try to get it down to a half-day story.

The only thing we can be certain of at this point is, it had nothing to do with Islam.

The article Drudge linked said SUSPECTED Islamic extremist, Drudge took off the word “suspected”

Even if it did, blame climate change.

If they are this quick to call it terrorism, must be a white guy.

[After The voice young lady was killed the previous day in Orlando, was there more security?]

So, was her killer a Muslim convert? The only information concerning the motive of her murder was that he hated Christianity.

Maybe it’s because they know it’s a white “Christian”.

Maybe Trump will steal the gay vote from Hillary after all.

Politics aside, this is horrible.

Fox just reported that someone living near the shooters house saw strange activity st his house but did’t report it for “FEAR OF BEING LABELED ISLAMAPHOBIC”

PC KILLS!

No. They were referencing the San Bernadino shooting.

A neighbor actually saw suspicious activity but said nothing for fear of being labelled.

It’s now International Terrorism. This is caused by those nasty Internationalists. I see, nothing to do with Islam, move along. Wonder how the Internationalists got in here? They wouldn’t be refugees or through the southern border would it?

[“idiot journo on FoxNews saying “they don’t want to cause an uprising of fear in the United States”]

How many Syrians have been resettled into rural America? Last night’s terror will become commonplace as cultures collide.
