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

    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.

    Sounds like this asshole successfully achieved one of the 5 pillars of Islam...during the month of ramadan. Damn, if we only had some sort of motive...sarcasm for the dense.

    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).

    Was it the democrat membership that allowed him to murder 50 plus people?

    Assault weapon defenders have blood on their hands again today.

    We should probably make those illegal...so people cannot get their hands on them...

    I would be okay if vests were illegal. Also cardigans, cumberbunds, tails and most especially bow ties.

    All weapons can technically be described as an assault weapon. It hasn't been reported as of yet what the make and model of the gun was or how it was purchased. Important details to know before we claim who has blood on their hands.

    Maybe it was a knife? Maybe he killed 50 plus people with his bare hands? We don't really know yet do we?

    Major Muslim Terrorists Makes This Declaration To All Americans: We Are Coming After You, We Will Attack Florida And Slaughter Americans There

    by Ted on June 9, 2016 in Featured, General
    By Theodore Shoebat

    ISIS Muslim terrorists released a statement on their plan to attack Florida, and even put out a list with the names of people in Florida that they plan on killing. According to one report:

    A pro-Isis group has released a hit list with the names of more than 8,000 peoplemostly Americans.

    More than 600-people live in Florida, and one security expert believes that many of those targeted live in Palm Beach County and on the Treasure Coast.

    The “United Cyber Caliphate” that hacked U.S. Central Command, 54,000 Twitter accounts and threatened President Barack Obama is the same pro-Isis group that’s reportedly created a “kill list” with the names, addresses and emails of thousands of civilian Americans.

    Reports of the list came to light online when Vocativ reported the list was shared via the encrypted app, Telegram, and called on supporters to kill.

    Former FBI agent-turned lawyer Stuart Kaplan says the threat is especially alarming, because the people on this list are civilians who don’t have the security necessary to protect themselves.

    “It’s going to create some hysteria,” he said.

    Kaplan believes civilians from our community are on the list.

    “I would suspect a head of a hospital or, perhaps, a local community leader. Those are the individuals that may appear on the list–or just a local banker or local school teacher–someone who, for some reason, was in the public eye.”

    Kaplan is concerned the list will inspire “lone wolf” style attacks.

    “If in fact a sympathizer gets ahold of this list and is readily able to identify you as being his neighbor and, then, decides (because they’re a sympathizer) to go out and do something horrific to you, there is no way to calculate the potential or to prevent that.”

    The list has not yet been made public.

    We reached out to the FBI, the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office and Martin County Sheriff’s Office to see how credible they view the threat and what action they might be taking.

    We are awaiting their response.

    According to the Martin County Sheriffs office,the FBI is aware of this and the agency will work closely with the Joint-Terrorism Task Force to keep citizens safe.
    I'll ride the wave where it takes me......

    Bombs filled vests aren't illegal in the US??

    There was sarcasm in that post...do I really have to explain that? Seriously!?!? Of course they are illegal! Did that stop him from strapping one on? It was my poke at those saying more gun laws would prevent this type of thing.
