So that the LGBT thread can be a little more upbeat. I don't have any comment on this now just... jesus.

What horrible news to wake up to.
I'm so sick of this happening in this country.
Fuck
I am also left with a hopelessness that anything positive will come from this. Nothing happened after Sandy Hook. After a few weeks of empty condolences, those in charge will not be shaken to action by an act of violence targeting a group that many of them would still deny basic rights to
I am incredibly saddened by this
But absolutely no part of me is shocked or finds this unbelievable
That was exact thought this morning.
Those poor people
1 in 3 of the people who were there.
Someone got to his father to ask questions, and his father has supposedly said that his son was not radicalized, but was very angry and disgusted when he saw two gay men kiss out in the open when he was in Miami.
God. The media and politicians will have a field day with this. So easy to totally dodge the gun issue when you can scapegoat the mentally ill and disabled as well as immigrants from primarily Muslim areas.
those poor people
So much hardship will be put on multiple communities due to this. Just pointless.
Wanted to respond to this, but not in the happy thread. Granted as far as I know Dan Patrick hasn't murdered anyone, but still he's the Lt. Governor of Texas. Here's what he TWEETED this morning in response to this tragedy.
He is quite literally saying everyone that died last night? Well, they had it coming.
Yeah so, maybe don't try to put all the bigotry eggs in one persons basket like they're the fault of all the worlds problems.
Whatever the guy's ideology is/was (is he in custody or still barricaded in the bar?), it makes me sick that people's beliefs can lead them to do something this horrible. I'm not one for praying, all I can do is hope something positive can come out of such a negative, awful act. Condolences to everyone affected by this. I can't even imagine how it would feel.
So let's maybe put the racist bullshit on hold for a while, eh.
So is Fox news

The shooter is dead.
The sad thing is that this is the third or fourth shooting that he's done this for.
Appreciate that he's keeping it up though, calling those assholes out is important.
Problem is I live in a small town in Minnesota. If you get outside of the cities this state is conservative as fuck.
And now that it's all pretty much
AFGHANISTAN!!!!!
MUSLIM TEROR?!?!
Ever tried. Ever failed. No matter. Try again. Fail again. Fail better

Dan Patrick is possibly the most hateful, bigoted asshole in an administration of hateful bigoted assholes, has spent the past month or so obsessing over trans people in bathrooms, and used to be a conservative talk radio shock jock. Dude knew exactly what he was saying and how it would sound, and the fact that the tweet is still up 4.5 hours later, after multiple news articles went up basically calling him a bigot, proves that he's perfectly fine with it.
jokes on me
I even got angry at whoever took that footage they're showing on the news networks that show bunch of people with gunshot wounds limping, being carried to safety. What kind of asshole sits there filming when there are dozens of hurt people and EMS obviously hasn't responded in force. Fucking help, damn it!
