Orlando shooting/The non gun debate

[Drich]

They don't know what isis and al qaeda are talking about...they know what they're talking about, lol..it's just hard to figure out what it was..because they're dumb.  

The man aligned himself, spectacularly, to islamists (who do, as it so happens, hate the west - they're almost defined by it).  That was clearly important to him even if a full understanding of the respective groups and their differences wasn't.

Even so, the point remains that he chose Pulse rather than any other soft target so readily available to him in one of the world's most famous tourist towns.  I mean, even if you look at it through the lens of "He wanted to attack the West," it's pretty obvious that what he was attacking was our acceptance of LGBT people.  Maybe the West was abstractly targeted, but these people died and got shot simply because of their sexuality.

What I find amusing is Drich trying to call foul on the LGBT community for using the tragedy to call for certain kinds of political actions when that's simply what happens in the face of tragedy.  It's not like Republicans haven't been beating the drum against that community for, well, ever, or that they've fought against any firearm regulations for the past 15-20 years.

Again, Gay days at disney means 1000's if not 10,000 of thousands of people lined up waiting for trams. the problem with that? Children are also in the mix, verse an atmosphere where people are seeking to 'sin'.

This was an atonement thing verse a kill as many gay people as possible thing. Again if he was looking to kill gay people by the bus load (literally) all he had to do is disable one bus of 'red shirts' and his kill score would have been double, just on one bus! or hundreds more if he went into any one of the choke points well before the first security gate. (Gay people at disney use to wear red or whatever the color of the day to show they were apart of the gay days theme, got caught in that one year...)

If he went to disney, and chose the nigh club instead then again this was an act of atonement, verse anti gay hate crime.
