[font=CNN,][font=CNN,]Orlando, Florida (CNN)[/font]A gay nightclub here was the scene early Sunday of the worst terror attack in U.S. history since 9/11.[/font]

[font=CNN,]* 50 people were killed inside the Pulse club and at least 53 people were injured, police say.[/font]

[font=CNN,]* The gunman was Omar Mateen of Ft. Pierce, Florida, a law enforcement source told CNN.[/font]
[font=CNN,]* Orlando police shot and killed Mateen.[/font]
[font=CNN,]"It appears he was organized and well-prepared," Orlando Police Chief John Mina said early Sunday. The shooter had an assault-type weapon, a handgun and "some type of (other) device on him."[/font]
[font=CNN,]There has been no claim of responsibility for the attack on jihadi forums, but ISIS sympathizers have reacted by praising the attack on pro-Islamic State forums.
Officials, aided by the FBI, warned that a lengthy investigation was ahead given the number of victims and the scope of the violence.[/font]

The worst mass shooting in the history of the United States. Wow.
I'm surprised i didn't hear about this earlier.

It happened Sunday morning, at around 2 a.m.

I'm not sure yet if it was an act of aggression against LGBTQ community or just an act of domestic terrorism.

It's so scary to think that my cousin could have been there that night. He went to another club nearby.

Gunman's father is a supporter of the Taliban and ran for president in Afghanistan.

And he's a registered Democrat. There's some irony for ya.

EDIT: Breaking - gunman called 911 pledging allegiance to ISIS.
 
Well, it's a little under halfway into 2016 and it's already rivaling 2015 to become the shitiest year of the 2010's.
My thoughts and prayers go towards the victims and their families and friends. Fuck terrorists.
 
Obama said it wasn't influenced by Islam.

I hate my country.

not making fun of it....
Went on a db server where everyone had names like "Pray for orlando" and that stuff

1 guy went "p r a y"
2nd went "f o r"
I went "o r l a n d o"

------------------------------------------------

idk why but i have the worst feeling that someone will soon try to outdo this

Whatever the "terrorist intention"  is, we all need to hope something is done

What're the people saying?

When I was at work there were so many people commenting on it, and this one dude was like super fucking disgusted.

"why can't people just fucking live their lives, those damn islam extremists always trying to show other people that their way is the only way."

I was like wow when he said that. Pretty much word for word excluding a bit more fucks.

Need Plague to take pictures lmao.
 
I also heard something about a Sacramento, CA pastor praising the shooting and saying that the people killed "deserved it."

Horrible, absolutely horrible.
