I'm wondering how the fuck did an apparently "lone" gunman manage to storm a nightclub full of people?
Like surely wouldn't everyone just pounce on him or sneak up behind him and smash a bottle over his head or something? Something seems off to me. This doesn't seem like something a lone gunman could pull off, at least without low key help.

"Ironically like the nativist far-Right, which despises multiculturalism, but benefits from its ideas of difference to scapegoat the other and to promote its own white identity politics; these postmodernists, leftists, feminists and liberals also use multiculturalism, to side with the oppressor, by demanding respect and tolerance for oppression characterised as 'difference', no matter how intolerable." - Maryam Namazie  (June 12, 2016 at 9:52 am)KUSA Wrote:(June 12, 2016 at 9:15 am)Brian37 Wrote: It is an absolute myth liberals want to ban every single gun. BULLSHIT, this is the same fallacy religion uses "not all", There is a tiny minority including the lobby NRA itself that is holding the entire nation hostage. The fear marketing by the NRA is allowing a few to prevent any pragmatic laws in place. There most certainly are just enough "they're gonna take away all the guns". They have been selling that bullshit fear for decades, the GOP and NRA said the same thing about Obama and they are pulling the same bullshit with Hillary. This was never about gun rights, this has always been about protecting the profits of one industry! RE: 20 dead in Orlando gay club shooting

Apparently he corralled people really quick. There isn't a back way out. If he killed 50, then he was spraying from the get go.
In a close confined space like that, he could do a lot of damage really quickly. Fuck I don't want to even think about it.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great

Reagan and Brady getting shot was about the only time in 40 years that the GOP was even slightly pragmatic, but even after all that future GOP gutted it. It is fucking sick that you can even shoot a president and not get any pragmatic laws to stick to prevent any type of gun death!

This was a tweet by Texas Lt. Governor Dan Patrick this morning. I am truly ashamed to be the same species.
