Orlando Massacre: With Tragedy Comes Hate

[SilenRose]

As you've seen all day there was a mass shooting in Orlando, Florida at a gay night club. As of late there are 50 dead and 53 injured. Most people have expressed their anger towards the shooter and extended their sympathies to the victims and their families. There are vigils going on tonight along with the flooding support of blood donors and resources (i.e water, snacks, medical equipment). But on the other side of this are the people who see this as an opportunity to continue bigotry to Muslims and also express happiness for the LGBT community to be shot down.

This behavior shouldn't be surprising but it is and disgusting in nature. Whether you agree with LGBT community or not these were humans lives taken by a man who had no right to do so.

I'm not gay or will be gay. However, I do respect them as people and would stand up for them. There are so many sick and disturbing people in this world that hate and judge. Makes me feel bad and worry for the human race. My advice to everyone. Do not hate or judge.

[bottomsup]

Judging is fine, hating is not

[RainbowFanGirl]

These people are terrible. There's having an opinion, and then there's downright being rude and obnoxious.

[ObscuredBeyond]

Those trolls are trying to mask the real issue. Yes, the gays are able to be healed; but they have to want it. Yes, what they do is deplorable. Yet, none of it masks the fact that they were mowed down before their time by a man who is even worse - by quite a bit.

These trolls are trying to establish the straw argument that those who want to redeem those caught up in homosexuality are looking at this from the angle of "two wrongs make a right."

Not so. If the Bloods assassinate several Crips, it's still murder, and justice must still be served.

The real issue isn't even the behavior patterns of the chosen victims. It's the dereliction of duty of those in power who - numerous times - had opportunities to prevent this tragedy, yet chose not to. And the reasons they chose not to.

Omar Mateen was connected to the Fundamental Islamic Knowledge Seminary. And trained by a New Black Panther member who is himself prison-trained. A man who is also connected to Black Lives Matter, F* the Police, F* the Flag, and Voldosta Flag Stomper Eric Sheppard Jr. And Sheppard also has ties with ISIS sympathizers.

ISIS wants only those forms of sexual depravity that they believe in to be allowed - with death to those who venture outside it, just as they desire death to the modest, and death to (really,) anyone who's not them.

ISIS became what it is because of the Muslim Brotherhood - which has also infiltrated the Department of Defense. And has its roots in the State Department (courtesy of Huma Abedin) and elsewhere.

The North African front of the Axis powers was ignored by the west after Germany, Italy, and Japan surrendered. We assumed the war was over. The North African front never surrendered. They never admitted WWII was over. And like Hydra in Cap 2, they've now dug deep into the very government that once vowed to protect the world from them. "A beautiful parasite from within."

So why is the NRA being blamed? And why are the sockpuppet trolls trying to blame Christians for what happened? To protect the man at the center of all these groups that really are responsible for what happened: the Kenyan.

Why did Obama endorse Hillary, when the Clintons and Obamas can't stand each other? Favors. He gets her off the hook with the FBI, and she helps him disappear when you-know-what hits the fan. And it will.

The Devil is always busiest when he becomes aware that his time is short.

I mean. Its sick but remember when the France shootings happened and the targeted a jewish area and when the white guy shot up that black church. These exact same things where said online by athiest , agnostics and lgbt. Disgusting people come from all walks of life.

[Ratiocinative]

There are 7 billion people on the planet, of course at least 10 of them will say mean and hateful things. There were at least 50 Islamic terrorist attacks killing 400 people just last week alone. How about we worry about the mass murdering religion right now and the internet trolls later?

[SilenRose]

I stopped at 13 or I'd be posting all day and night. Exactly what will worrying do? Nothing. If you want to solve a problem then take action. As for me I am just sharing the other side of the aftermath.

[BigJake]

I agree that the agenda needs to stay focused on Islamic terrorism. The liberals have invested so much political capital in defending Islam that they're grasping at straws to find other groups to blame for this attack. They don't want to have to choose between LGBT people and Muslims (who believe homosexuality should be a crime), even though such a choice is inevitable.

[thewanderingme]

I'm definitely surprised. I wouldn't have expected people to say stuff like that out in the open.

after the woman who was fired from bank of America for making racist comments online, I'm curious to see how many of these people will also end up fired for being dumb enough to post it online for every one to see. especially since this involves people who were actually murdered.

[Anonymous]

I posted a mytake about my life as a bisexual woman in a conservative, homophobic society.
Many comments on that were condemning homosexuality.
Most of the people just assumed that I live in USA (they didn't read the full article obviously)
I thought that Westerns have become open minded over this issue. Because of many positive things they did for lgbtq people.
But I was surprised by views of Westerners here.
I guess hatred for lgbtq is universal and not something which will go away in near future.
But at least most Western countries don't criminalise homosexuality
That's silver lining to the cloud
:(

İF its necessery to confess l have not known so far there had actually been peoples who say something like that in USA. so l am astonished and sad. because l have never lived such an event in my country and seldomly encountered someone who hate LGBT's rights. and l apologize in the name of them.

[BigJake]

This was an attack on our country and our civil liberties, nothing less. Regardless how you feel about homosexuality, the big issue here is that NO ONE deserves to be shot in a nightclub while socializing. Even if you don't like homosexuality, this is an abomination. The cretins who wrote these comments don't deserve the freedoms we have if they're willing to so blithely ignore the basic rights of others.

[Anonymous]

Thanks for ignoring all the anti-Christian hate (of all things) that has been spewed by liberals in the last two days. No anti-Muslim hate, freaking anti-CHRISTIAN... because it was a Christian who shot up that club... amirite?

Liberals refuse to believe that Muslims are hostile to western values.

[Opinion Owner]

Look, all these people who you quoted are just as barbaric as the shooter, but quoting the Westboro Baptist Church? Do you actually take them seriously?

[Opinion Owner]

"Christian conservatives are responsible for the mass shooting at a gay bar in Orlando because they "created this anti-queer climate," according to American Civil Liberties Union attorneys."

Nevermind that MUSLIMS are the ones who are throwing gays off of buildings and then stoning them.

[Opinion Owner]

The liberals in this country are too weak-minded and cowardly to actually go after radical Islam, because they just might become the next target. So they allow Muslims to abuse and kill gays and women.

[Opinion Owner]

A lot of liberals on Twitter were attacking Christians in the aftermath of the shooting, then fell silent when the shooter turned out to be a Muslim Democrat. Oh, the irony.

[SilenRose]

If you want a myTake about the previous misinformation posted before all the facts came in then make your own myTake about it.

[Opinion Owner]

You didn't include it because it didn't fit your agenda. Plain and simple.

[SilenRose]

Thanks for trolling.

[Anonymous]

Everyone has an opinion but those people deserve a swift punch in the face... People talk about how far we've come since times where we had gladiator fights and we'ed scream jeer and cheer while people were butchering each other and then I think about things like this and realize we haven't come very far at all since then...

[Amanda2]

I don't think the tragedy brought the hate it was already their. These people just wanted to be contrary to the mass majority that were sympathizing and empathizing with the gays

[Oxi112094]

I don't understand how some people think its ok that 50 innocent people died. They weren't even all gay. Some were bartenders and bouncers at the club. Such bigotry and disgusting mindsets of those people, it truly breaks my heart.

[VomitV]

Boo hoo hoo. It's such a shock that people say edgy things after a mass shooting. This is pretty standard shit on the Internet, and there's no need for you to share this novel discovery with everyone else.

[SilenRose]

Yet you came and posted. Clearly it matters to you.

[VomitV]

I don't remember saying anything about whether it matters or not. GaG's entire front page is just an inundation of white girl tears so I don't differentiate between myTakes much.

[SilenRose]

You didn't have to. The fact is you took the time to click, read, and comment. You didn't have to but you did because it mattered to you. If I don't care about something I just move on.

[VomitV]

I'm clearly obsessed with this topic by taking the 20 seconds required to respond.

[SilenRose]

It keeps adding help. And it's pretty clear you have no self control over the matter.

[VomitV]

I don't know what "keeps adding help" means, and how could I have self-control over a "'matter"? Isn't that outside of myself as an entity?

Whatever, I'm not reading any more of your word salad or playing semantics. Hell, I can't even play semantics because nothing you typed has been coherent enough for me to do so.

[SilenRose]

Doesn't matter you already played your part.

[SilenRose]

So it's gay for a girl to like cute things? Never heard that before. But hey look you are still posting. I knew you couldn't stop. You even showed your true hateful colors.

[SilenRose]

Hmm, your comments will fit well in my next myTake. I can quote you directly.

[VomitV]

Why, thank you. Causing SJW butthurt makes my heart feel all fuzzy and my balls feel all tingly.

Here's another:

Two gay men walk into a bar. They get 5.56s shot through their chests and die. The end.

[SilenRose]

Me butthurt? Lol. No I find you trying to hurt me funny because you are only hurting yourself. This is my myTake so I have a reason to visit it.
You come back because you can't help yourself. You keep giving my myTake hits and make it controversial. You want it to go away? No, people like you make it current. Your hate fuels the story. Congratulations to giving it everlasting life.

[VomitV]

I think you're magnifying the importance of this shit a little too much.

[SilenRose]

Nope. Just being honest.

[madhatters4]

couldn't even read through all that disgusting nonsense

[Anonymous]

Those post are fucking disgusting and heartbreaking to read :(

[SilenRose]

They really are...

[Poppykate]

Any day where 49 people died is a sad day!. My thoughts and prayers are with the friends and family of those that were lost.

[helloitsmethere]

These tweets disturb me...

Humanity in a TL:DR inside a TL:DR version.
Just as radical and extreme as terrorists and fanatics.
That's just sick. A very common mental disability.

[lonerider]

Use the proper words. Dont euphemise it as 'mass shooting'. It was an Islamic terrorist attack.. carried out by a radical muslim.. that's what it is.

[Puge_Henis]

a gay radical muslim, the first ever

[Josht13]

Damn the tweets weren't even jokes, the opportunities are there.

[JuicyBrain]

Could we please get those people in the same room? I have a depiction of Mohammed I would like to stick on the door...
