Looks like the shooter was usung an "Assault" rifle, Handgun and had a device on his body that police had to carry out a controlled explosion....
The media is not mentioning race... You do the math.

Been watching the news about it all morning. They mentioned the shooter had an "assault rifle" looking long gun and a handgun but haven't been focusing that much on the weapons. FNC has been talking quite about and sources stating right away that it was a "terror attack", "radical islam",etc., or words to that effect. Don't know if the suspect has an arab or muslim name (supposedly if he does this story would never be reported on) and/or any ties to ISIS or any other extremist group, Islamic or otherwise? Hell, since it was a gay nightclub he might have ties to some group like the Westboro Bapstist whackos.
Seems like there was at least one off duty cop that exchanged gunfire with the shooter but not sure how it all played out as they said something about the cop and the shooter firing at each other outside and the guy going back inside and taking hostages and killing folks.

the CBC is what they keep on in the office here and they are still as of 09:53am EST calling it "Domestic Terror" and have so far avoided mentioning his name or religion.

Every story I read this morning says the FBI is calling this an act of terrorism carried out by a Islamic extremist. An armed security guard exchanged fire with the terrorist before the terrorist went back inside and took a bunch of people hostage. I read one story that said the motivation for the attack is not known but it could have been the terrorists extreme Islamic views on homosexuality. It will be interesting to see if that part of the story gets dropped.

But none of that will matter Richard, he still had a GUN. so that makes the Constitution the problem.

Maybe this attack will show some of the libs and gays that there are far worse things to worry about than whether they are being allegedly discriminated against in bathroom choices.
It seems that gays getting thrown off buildings to their deaths in Iran is largely ignored here.
This could be an eye-opener. I hope they have the sense to realize that all this was made possible by Obama and the Dimocrats.

That's true but it sounds like he may have had some type of bombs that didn't get used or didn't detonate. Sooner or later we'll be wishing they were back to using guns when some of these idiots start using explosives successfully and the death toll is in the triple digits rather than double.

Rep. Peter King is on FNC now talking about how the shooter was from Afghanistan and had weapons training? Someone reported he had been looked at in the past by federal agencies, the shooter that is. Wonder if he had traveled to Afghanistan at one time and King has his wires crossed or maybe the guy wasn't born here as we reported?

This is why the MSM is still calling this a mass shooting instead of a terrorist attack. Violating the Second Amendment will not stop a terrorist attack and will most likely make the attack worse. Calling it a mass shooting allows liberals, Democrats and the President to use this as a reason to further violate the Second Amendment and further restrict the right to own firearms.

I think the FBI is waiting because they know three things:
She is guilty as fuck.
Obama will not allow her to be prosecuted.
If they wait until much closer to the election, it becomes far more likely that the FBI futilly pushing to presecute her will hurt her election chances far more. Not that tbey are republican favoring.....just know her level of guilt.

"What sick, barbaric bastards.
It's one thing to use terrorism to make a political statement, but the wanton mutilation and suffering of innocents? How does that forward your political goals? When done in the name of religion, how does that earn you brownie points with God?
Fuck religious extremism. And especially fuck the "religion of peace." "
So, lagcsocialist supports terrorism AS LONG AS ITS FOR POLITICAL ENDS....
So as far as I am concerned, wait until a week out from the election. Then throw it at her.

Beat me to it for the post. Latest is 50 dead over 50 injured. 29 year old Muslim with US Citizenship. What surprises me is that the Government Agencies are actually calling it an act of terrorism already. I can't wait to see the MSM spin on how he was oppressed and needed a good job. I see a pretty damn good looking house on the news and a BMW in the dirveway. Doesn't look like he was economically dissadvantaged or living in poverty.
Islam = mad dog killers waiting to go off IMO.
The imam at the press conference was pretty much telling us to not blame Islam, but blame the gun.
