Orlando night club shooting

I would say it has less to do with be an American and more to do with being a freaking human. Nationalities have nothing to do with being a decent human being. Do some people just not have a moral compass?
It is possible to live a good normal life without adhering to a certain nationalistic lifestyle and belief system. But it's possible to follow them and be that way too. Good ole fashion American values don't permit someone to pledge allegiance to a ruthless Islamic terrorist organization and murder 50 individuals such as what just happened.

50 people dead in Orlando. Terrorism has come to the streets of America and if you're depending on Obama, forget it. Lock and load my brothers and sisters. - Charlie Daniels via Twitter

It's not 1776 anymore. Tyrannical government argument has been beaten to death. The government doesn't actively hunt down and eliminate citizens who go against it.

He may have found other ways. But the thing is we allowed him to buy it legally. That is pathetic. How many of these shootings are we going to allow to happen before we make it more difficult for guns to be legally purchased?

Every time we have one of these massacres where people are killed with legally purchased firearms the narrative is always the same "He would have found another way!"

Yeah, that makes it better. We just saved him a few steps. Great.

Nobody needs an AR-15 to protect themselves in America. This isn't Somalia.

I own an AR15 (that I built myself) because of the POSSIBILITY that i might need it. The Bill of Rights, not "needs," permits it.

If things go bad in this country, or just locally, I, and people like me, will have adequate firearms with adequate bullet capacity to defend ourselves from those (including our own government) that are committing violent acts against our families and communities. They will likely have "assault rifles." We shouldn't be stripped of that right because of nutjobs (such as the gay club shooter) that exist. We should retain that right because of the fact that people like that exist.

I like turtles
I own guns including an H and K rifle. Normal, sane people don't do this. We need to do better about letting crazy people have access to high capacity killing machines.

But if it wasn't an AR-15, terrorists and mentally unstable people would find ways to kill mass amounts of people. Driving a van into the club with a homemade bomb would of inflicted more damage and death.


Extremism, violence and mental illness are the problems.

You are willing to go to war against your own government?

I know its business as usual but management won't care or push back commit times and still blame us that's all. For any missed business or late air they will find us at fault they already said road will be closed tomorrow.

I have my cell phone and a more than capable police department less than 5 minutes away.

For reasons not important to this conversation, I will NEVER touch, let alone own, a firearm.
