    I'm just continually pissed about this crap. Both sides protect their agenda while people die.

    Guns are a problem in America and something needs to be done to help fix it. This includes banning some firearms and making background checks and medical clearance a requirement.

    Radical Islam is a problem in the world. To hide your head in the sand and ignore it is just as bad as ignoring the gun problem. Both need strong statements and vigilance. We can no longer let hate speech that invites violence occur without action. Freedom of speech dies when you use it to kill.

    The WBC are religious, no?

    Yes. So are non-WBC people.

    Just sad that some see that group on a par with others who are just living their lives...with religion...bothering no one.

    How is that so difficult to get?

    Exactly. The WBC are such a fringe element who of course deserve to be called out but to elevate them up as some sort of representative example of religious peoples is absurd.

    The world would be such a better place if the WBC was treated like the terrorists they are and eliminated

    It is not difficult.
    Freedom of religion - they deserve it too.

    I think they are as goofy as they come and would love Team Slap to pull up to their stupid protests and issue a few slaps... but do they cross the line like, say, ISIS?

    They seem to me more like an annoyance than a threat.

    More details on the case...

    Info on the killers father:

    https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/worldviews/wp/2016/06/12/orlando-shooting-suspects-father-hosted-a-political-tv-show-and-even-tried-to-run-for-the-afghan-presidency/

    And this from a co-worker:

    http://www.floridatoday.com/story/news/crime/2016/06/12/who-omar-mateen/85791280/

    Like previous Islamic attacks this is starting to look like law enforcement failing to connect dots OR connecting them but failing to do anything about it.

    I pray this punk isn't on these forums or the Ten Club. He needs his membership revoked. He loves PJ the way Paul Ryan loves RATM.

    how do you turn radicals into normals? I mean, look at Hitler. that fucker STILL has supporters/followers decades later. violence doesn't solve anything. but neither does sitting by and doing nothing. so what do we, as a society, do to curb this problem? it isn't just an "over there" issue anymore.

    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.

    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
    Early reports are calling that "device" an assault weapon.
    Early reports also list Omar Mir Seddique Mateen as a registered Democrat.
    Oh boy.
    OMFG. All Dems are terrorists? I'm a terrorist? Holy shit.

    A lot of things point to him being homophobic more so than ant-West.

    It's pathetic seeing republicans who hate gays just like the Muslims bashing liberals as Muslim lovers after this. What do you bigots care other than scoring political points?

    If you have any other questions pm me.
    You are detracting from the seriousness of this thread.

    You'll see.
    Just wait for it.

    I don't even know what you're talking about. Don't know which post was supposed to be offensive (none seemed offensive to me).
