Oh for Pete’s sake. This is ridiculous. I hadn’t heard that something so silly was even being considered.

Don’t our Senators have anything better to do?

Oh yeah, it has to be right up there with Arlington National Cemetary, Vietnam Wall, Iwo Jima Monument, Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, etc.

>>The Pulse shooting was a religious zealot ISIL muslim attack on American soil.

The killer was a bisexual who frequented the bar and his wife knew about his plot.

The killer was angry about Barack Obama’s drones strikes on muslim countries and mentioned it in his 911 call.

It was Barack Obama who claimed that the attack was about religious conservative opposition to same sex marriage.

Perhaps members of the FBI can visit as yet another attack where the killer was known to them but they failed to stop.

Then they can take a trip to Vegas to the Mandolay shooting site, another failure.

Political correctness is a very strong force in our culture.

We really need a memorial representing the nearly 750,000 people who die yearly from AIDS worldwide. Or those killed by drug overdose. Or killed by drunk drivers...or at Mandalay Bay parking lot L.V.
P.S....this memorial may spur other jihadist(s) to do the same thing.

It passed the senate unanimously. I don’t think the republicans are on our side.

It was proven that the terrorist who attacked the place had no idea it was specifically a “gay” themed nightclub and only picked it out as a crowded venue to engage in his mass murdering spree. An evil tragedy...but one of the Left seemed to welcome as an opportunity to push a false narrative that those who opposed same-sex marriage inspired mass murder / terrorism.

Will they put a large, public restroom on the site?

Rubio should have been dumped in 2016 after his amnesty vote.

South Carolina has re-elected Flimsey Grahamnesty after THREE amnesty votes.
I wonder if they know he’s voting for a permanent Democrat majority, because he does, and so does Rubio.

If not buried, demolished and paved over for a parking lot.
A monument to faggots and lesbos is sickening.
“Abominations!”
Damn Senate must be full of like people!

Congress is full of sexual deviants......Biden being at the lead. From adulterers, gays and otherwise....they're as attracted to DC as gays and pedophiles are to the catholic church.

Yes. This nation is done. Praying for it but I personally cannot believe what has become of it and don’t see a recovery.

Twice as many people died in the Station nightclub fire in 2003 with an additional 200+ injured. Where is the National memorial for that?

Using their logic...shouldn’t the entire city of Atlanta be declared a national memorial after it was burned to the ground by Gen Sherman?

Equipped with "glory holes" in the stalls, no doubt.

You'd think that public restrooms would be so passe after the advent of "hookup" apps. But they are still hot destinations in queer culture.
