Obama's Speech early today on the shooting.

This speech is considered controversial by many because some claim it doesn't go far enough other claim it is an attack on gun owners.

He gets key facts about the Orlando shooter purposely wrong... The shooter is confirmed to be American born citizen by the FBI.

Anyways read the statement at your own risk.

The page won't come up. Can you correct that?

My heart goes out to the victims and their families, and I hope we don't see a repetition of this tragedy.

He barely mentioned guns in the speech let alone gun control.
He just talked about how easy it is for anyone get a gun.

I think he is referring to this part :

More confabulation? The man talks about how easy it is to obtain a firearm and you see an explicit threat to the Second Amendment.

The FBI and Orlando police say they haven't found any connection to ISIS yet, but they have found evidence of him being mentally unstable.

The international press is present in Orlando reporting on the shooting and whether or not it is terrorism.

Just because he is mentally unstable, doesn't mean that he wasn't hired by ISIS.

It's because the NRA said this not too long ago today

NRA:
Gun used in Orlando shooting is for 'hunting and home defense'
https://www.romper.com/p/what-does-the- ... much-12309
https://twitter.com/Slate/status/742022983196282880

Even RedState a well known conservative right site has joined in about how the left is behind all this to takedown guns.

Quote:

It never fails. The collective stupidity of the left is never more apparent than when there is some kind of violent tragedy that takes place on US soil, particularly when it involves guns.

Go read Twitter and Facebook.

Never underestimate how strong Christian right hates LGBT people.

Also you wanted links about U.S. Conservative Christians hating LGBT people.

http://thinkprogress.org/lgbt/2015/04/0 ... anti-lgbt/
http://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/20 ... -marriage/
https://www.splcenter.org/fighting-hate ... /anti-lgbt
https://www.splcenter.org/fighting-hate ... propaganda

Southern Poverty Law Center has tons of information of all sorts.

Most Southern states where the majority of Christian Conservatives are still writing anti LGBT laws and anti gay marriage laws on the book, getting them on the books.
http://www.csmonitor.com/USA/Society/20 ... y-marriage

Many Northern states including Indiana, Maine, Iowa are following suit.

I stand behind everything Trump says here. This shooting of a gay/lesbian bar was just the first target. They will come after the rest of us too - that means me, along with anyone else who is a Christian. People need to wake up to what is happening. I don't think that closing the borders will even work anymore because they are already here. I hate to say it, but Martial Law is the only thing possible left to fight this war which means we will no longer be America.
