    Is this another islamic terror attack that Obama will call work place violence? We will see, a tragedy none the less

    http://www.foxnews.com/us/2016/06/1...ople-have-been-shot-at-orlando-nightclub.html

    Orlando Police said the shooter inside the club is dead and the incident has been declared a “mass-casualty” event. It wasn’t immediately known how the shooter died, or how many people were wounded in the shooting.

    The club is a favorite for LGBT tourists visiting the US city of Disneyland.

    In this day and age and political climate, the FBI does not hang labels lightly and, never do it fast. Muslim did it is the likeliest of possibilities at this point.

    No, just heard it on TV.

    Democrats say you have a better chance being eaten by a shark than being killed in a terrorist attack and we can absorb a few insignificant casualties now and then so why is this even on the news? Will Obama cancel his Sunday golf outing? I doubt it.

    The 'why' isn't known yet, but will be interesting to see the kneejerk reactions from politicians over this.

    Apparently the Confederate flag isn't part of this, so what's gonna get banned this time? Whether this is a nut that went off over the the LGBTQ issue or it was just something personal, we're all gonna lose something (2nd amendment?).

    Very sorry for the loss of life. Orlando must be reeling. Just yesterday the murder of a singer and now this.

    The perpetrators of the single most deadly mass shooting in US history didn't need rifles. They used semi-automatic handguns to terrifying efficiency.

    8000 of the 8800 gun homicides perps each year use handguns.

    The left targets rifles because it's politically viable to attack the peaceful activities of their opponents. Come on, even foreigners can see this.

    [hr][/hr]

    Anericans: do everything you can to defend your RKBA. Don't budge an inch, or you'll wake up one day like us and have the state confiscate your rifles.

    Remember, necessity is the plea for every infringement of human freedom. It is the argument of tyrants; it is the creed of slaves. Fight the grabbers tooth and nail. You are an inspiration to shooters and hunters the world over.

    As I said, the FBI does not hang labels lightly and never do it fast - remember how long it took them to call San Bernardino killers "Islamists"? In this case, took them couple of hours. My money are on this guy be an Islamic Terrorist.

    Watch ISIS taking credit.

    Well I'm not ready to call in Muslim terrorism yet, but I watched the press conference on TV and they said the shooter was not from around here. I'm not sure what that is supposed to mean, tourist? But if they know that much than I've guessed they've already retrieved ID from the body.

    I realize you are hoping it's some sort of evangelical white person, but is that the likeliest possibility?

    If it is Muslim terrorism, I'll be curious as to how the leftist apologetics are going to work. Traditionally, in the leftist hierarchy of victims, Muslim trumps gay every time. But since this is was an attack at a gay night club, will that change the dynamics?

    Curious to find out, but I know you're hoping for white American Bible thumper. Keep hope alive!

    Ironize all you want, but if even CNN came out right away with this, you can take it to the bank.

    Whether he cancels golf depends on who the perp turns out to be.
