Yah, baby - Diversity!!!

Not quite the "Ninjas vs Zombies" matchup we were looking for. Still, should be entertaining to see the left portray both sides as victims of white privilege and Donald Trumps "incendiary rhetoric".

In before the left says I am personally at fault for all of this...

Well, there you go. He hated Hispanics (just like Trump) and he hated gays (just like Trump).

I knew there had to be a Trump connection there somewhere.

I think it may be a HATE crime?
Will Sharpton and Obama go to meet with Mateens family to see if they want to charge the police for using unnecessary force?
How long before someone in the media or a democrat blames this on conservatives?
I say by 2 pm!

The muslims are here and growing in number. There will be more, much more, of this in the coming days. And not just directed at gays. The solution is obvious: the muslims must go.

“His father told MSNBC that the shooting was not about his son’s religion, but that his son became very angry after seeing two men kissing in Miami months ago.”

I’m not sure those are as unconnected as the father thinks.

They’re trying to scare tourists from traveling to Florida at the height of summer tourist season. Including frightening foreign travelers from coming to Florida.

Both of Mateen’s parents are originally from Afghanistan, according to CBS News.

I suppose we’ll see a moment of silence on the Tony Awards tonight. Hey, I don’t mean to make light of this incident. But that’s the best the Left can do for us, have us praying and coming together AFTER the attack. The media and other Powers That Be certainly seem to be binding the hands of everyone trying to protect us.

The gunman has turned out to be another Islamic terrorist. I bet this disappoints many on the left who were hoping that it would have been a white Christian that attacked the gay nightclub.
