Very sad to see violence continue to escalate in this way. Can't believe this is the most violent shooting in US history.

it's really fucked up and I haven't heard back from friends I have in Orlando

actually feel sick


like we go to gay clubs in halifax all the time. imagine if someone were to just show up and shoot up the whole place just because they feel strongly against homosexuals.

Being a homosexual, this has been a fear of mine. I still get harassed constantly on the street even in Vancouver... All it takes in a fraction of a second and you can ruin the lives of millions...

Apparently they busted some other fuckass in Los Angeles who was planning the same thing.

The possibility of tragedies like this happening run through my mind everyday.
Knowing that we must be cautious of the same acts of violence and hatred present centuries ago..
It shows we have not actually progressed towards peace in a long time, and that some people appear to not want to advance at all.

I say this to all my friends, family, strangers and all;
"Be safe".

I find it highly amusing that the narrative around this shooting is literally already about gun control and that it's apparently all white people's fault.
Holy shit get it together liberal media, this is the kind of jumping to conclusions that makes people vote for Trump.

That said, my heart goes out to those affected.

I've seen a lot of completely idiotic news articles and facebook posts over this event. Sadly some people want to use it as an example to champion some sort of social justice cause, rather than acknowledge the act of terrorism that it is.

RIP gay brothers and sisters.

I go out like 2-3 times a week to gay bars, being extremely gay. It has never once popped into my head that someone could/would come into a gay bar maliciously... it is the one place where we can go that we don't have to feel judged, at least for being gay there is still a lot of judging going on...

all jokes aside it is awful that a hate crime could escalate to this amount of destruction. I have no encouraging words to say right now. =/
