I'm listening to CNN letting the family of the shooter
blame it on mental illness. My oh my.

Wake up America!

under their watch.

Yes! Exactly! Finally someone on this board with political common sense

I think this short video is a powerful reminder than nearly every human being on Earth is a multiplicity of different ethnicities and backgrounds.

Before we point fingers at another culture or religion or nationality or race, casting blame about who is better, who is worse, who is extremist, who comes from the better culture - it's important that we all know who *we* are.

And lastly, the only thing I have left to say about what happened in Orlando, shared here from my own Facebook page. I won't be back in this thread to argue with people who refuse to look in the mirror.

I want to take a moment to say something that has been on my mind all day. That shooter in Orlando? His religion doesn't matter. It isn't relevant. He was an American citizen, like you and I, and he had the same religious freedom as the rest of us. The fact remains that anyone with a chip on their shoulder and the money to spend can obtain military grade assault weapons and take their grudges out where ever they please.

This country has a serious problem with hate and intolerance and bigotry. The daughter of our president is called a nigger all over the web and people openly wish for her to be raped at college. There is a sickness pervading our society, and while there are many root causes, every time we single someone out for race, faith, gender, sexuality, or ethnicity we spread that sickness. Making it worse is unfettered access to weapons of war, so everyone who feels victimized can take their pain out on others.

Our government - the real powers that be in Congress - send out their worthless prayers and wishes when instead they could be *doing* something about our gun problem. They could be *doing* something about our health care problem, including mental health care. They could be *doing* something about the economic disparities that plague our county, and they could be *doing* something about the joke that passes for education in this country. They could be *doing* something about the inequality in this country that feeds hatred and resentment. Instead, they do nothing but pander for votes by turning ignorant people against their neighbors and countrymen, and they squander our wealth on wars abroad creating enemies that hate us for our hate. Terrorism has nothing to do with faith - it has everything to do with revenge.

I believe that what you do, what you give, how you love - it all comes back to you. What has America done to deserve these senseless acts of violence directed at people from all walks of life? Look around - watch the news - hell, look at Facebook, and it's clear to see that we are merely getting in return exactly what we, collectively as a nation have put out into the world. Hate begets hate. Be the person you want others to be. Change starts in the mirror.

RE: "the problem that they have let happen under their watch"

Contrary to what Mr. Trump seems to want people to think, the parents of this U.S. born angry blamer who got a military style assault weapon legally came in under President Reagan, not Obama. It was at a time when the U.S. was supplying weapons to the Taliban and Bin Laden. The invasion of Iraq after the WTC and Pentagon attacks was a similar bit of reaction-ism based on misdirected outrage and half-truth telling, please learn.

You can argue about us going to war.
You can argue about gun control laws.

What you can't argue about is that under this administration
things have gotten worse. We paid in blood for territories that
were given back. The sames places where these terrorists are
now waging a war against us.

Let's stay current. If our leaders can't call it for what it is,
you know that elephant in the room - how in the world does
anyone think that they're going to do something about it?
And I do mean to the terrorists, not law abiding citizens.
