Been in a few places like that myself. Pretty sure it still happens today—just not generally in the shiny metro-sexual metropolises.

In Florida, if the main business of the establishment is liquor, even if they serve food, concealed carry is forbidden. If the establishments main business is food, concealed carry is permitted even if they serve liquor. If the restaurant has an in-situ bar, concealed carry is permitted in the restaurant, but not in the bar section.

You know the half-caste half-wit in the WH is gonna say it's "workplace violence."

Probably Susan Rice and Marie Harf are frantically working the phones to get the shooter a job.....in our govt.

FBI: Florida gay nightclub mass murderer had “leanings” toward jihad ideology, was “organized and well-prepared”

June 12, 2016 8:57 am By Robert Spencer Leave a Comment

FBI assistant agent in charge of the agency’s Tampa division Ron Hopper makes an extraordinarily hesitant, weaselly statement when asked if the shooter was a jihadi: “At this time we’re looking at all angles right now. We do have suggestions that that individual may have leanings towards that, that particular ideology. But right now we can’t say definitively so we’re still running everything around.” He knows who is running the show and will soon be charging him with “Islamophobia” if he doesn’t do his best to obfuscate the grim reality.

This is a conflict for Obama... he loves gays almost (but not quite) as much as he loves Muslims.

Sounds like the feds are busy scrubbing his FB/social media of any references to the slime cult. Maybe they'll cut 'n paste a few rebel flags in there and post a few Trump tweets so that they can say that ol' Achmed bin Goathumpin appears to have been a southern redneck who revered the Rounding Fathers..

Jun 12, 2016

The shooter in the club is dead, Orlando Police just tweeted. Orlando police added support from local/ state/ federal agencies is ongoing and police is calling this a mass casualty situation.

At least 40 young people have been shot at a Pulse, a gay nightclub in Orlando, Florida. Among the victims are many visitors from out of state or overseas, and people who recently moved to Orlando. Many gunshots were heard. Latest unconfirmed reports increased the number of people shot to 40 and more.

It’s not known why police conducted a controlled explosion in the area.

The situation is still developing. There is an ongoing hostage situation. Tweets from within the popular club begged for help.

It was supposed to be a fun Saturday night at Pulse night club, a popular party place for LGBT. Tourists love to hang out here, and so do locals. Saturday night is the big night. This Saturday it was Latino night - this is a big night. For some this developed into a night of horror, injury or possible death. Unconfirmed tweets talk about 7 dead.

Pulse earlier on Saturday night posted to their Facebook: Calling all our Latinos, Latinas & everyone that loves a little Latin flavor! It’s time to party tonight! Here’s a little something to play while getting sexy tonight! #Pulesorlando

Even liberals who love Islamic Terrorists would have a problem how to use a dead bullet ridden Islamo in any job except as a door stop!

Islamic terrorist, Martian terrorist, any terrorist, it doesn’t matter. The left and the media have what they need. It was a shooting. They could care the less how or why it took place. They will just run it through their propaganda machine to get what they want out of it. Gun control!!! If it’s a white racist or homophobe? Bonus!!!

Hell, by the end of the week the Regime and MSM will have the gun walking in itself and killing those people.

On a political note: Trump as nominee won’t let that pass. Could you imagine Jeb or Willard right now if they were the nominee? Good Lord!!

Haven’t heard from Half-wit Harf lately.

Did Obama subjugate her?

Maybe he shut her up after she told Wolf Blitzer all the terrorists needed were jobs?

Nah....Boobamba probably gave her a raise for that...wondered why he hadn’t though of it himself.
