    Religion of peace. Why would they be suspect?

    Appears to be an isolated incident. Person had a plan.

    Crazy person, yet motivated? By what?

    Regardless of whether or not it was a radical Muslim or a bigot, this was a terrorist attack.

    The time will come in this country when people will be uncomfortable going to public gathering places that do NOT have metal detectors. That is if it's not already happening, this terrible and this act is in the state I live in.

    Not all that much difference between the two!

    A few sources are saying it was committed by Omar Mateen, who, according to the FBI may have had jihadist leanings. I think they are being careful what they say. I guess you can be an extremist and a bigot. Actually I think those probably go hand in hand most of the time.

    50 dead....53 injured... what kind of monsters live in our communities and we don't know it. Horrible situation.

    Even with a metal detector, at that point, I'm not sure what good it would have done.

    My heart goes out to those people who were fucking ambushed, and those mourning them this morning.

    Wonder no further. As much as the apologists want to sprinkle unicorn poop and ferry dust on incidents like this, never forget you as an American are a infidel and must be slaughtered. More importantly God bless the victims and families of yet another terrorist attack.

    from what I've read an officer engaged him outside the club; the shooter then went into the club.
    what the hell kind of device did he have? are there know suicide bombers active in the u.s.?! fuck

    Deadliest shooting in American history, and the 2nd deadliest by a single shooter in the history of the world. (2nd to Norway in 2011)

    Jesus. I didn't know that. It's almost incomprehensible how someone could not only have the mindset to do that, but the time and space to do it before being stopped.

    Unbelievable. Hearing the mayor say it's not 20, but in fact 50 made my stomach turn. It's so sickening.

    Early reports are calling that "device" an assault weapon.

    Early reports also list Omar Mir Seddique Mateen as a registered Democrat.

    I would be surprised if it was anything else.

    Please tell me the stupid f**k was shot dead at the scene (all apologies to those that feel sorry for him).
