You could say the same about religion.

You need to open your mind to the fact not all muslims are terrorists.

Very true, but you have to admit the world would be a much nicer place without Islam. I do feel incredibly sorry for Muslims having to answer to small minded people who think they're somehow to blame for what one lunatic does on the other side of the world, but if we're all being honest, what good is Islam - or indeed any religion - to anybody anyway?

I mean what do we suppose happens if everybody chucks out their bibles, their Korans, their hymn books, their burkas, their kippahs etc. and never pray again? Ah yes I forgot, we all burn in eternity for not serving our maker and all the rest of it. Give me a fucking break!

Very strong personal convictions combined with ready access to automatic weaponry?

I wonder where those convictions came from.

You'll have to point to where I said they were.

I dunno.......

Maybe he had a gay relative who made him listen to Barbara Streisand LP's on a loop when he was a kid.

Maybe not all Muslims are terrorists but a high percentage of terrorists are Muslim, when you think back to all these terrorist attacks how much condemnation do you here from the Muslim community.
The whole interpretation of Islam is being increasingly distorted by IS and more and more attacks like this are happening, and the more keep people ignoring that fact the more they'll be allowed to continue and escalate.

Death toll now at 50. How does anyone  get into a nightclub heavily  tooled up? Do the door staff not search people who enter? Another example of why everyday American folk need to wake up and smell the coffee. It's time the NRA were put to the sword.

Seems that he had visited the club several times before which makes it look like a combination of readily available guns plus repressed sexuality plus poisonous religious belief equals mass murder.

I love listening to Barbra Streisand. She has a wonderful voice. How anyone can listen to her and feel intolerance towards others is beyond me. Here is one of my faves and the message is pretty clear.

Was Omar Mateen a fan of Barbra Streisand?

I was referring to Post 25 from Breadman. Barbra is Jewish so there may be a connection.

We should be grateful kp wasn't on holiday in America when this happened or nuts would need a new IT wizard. That gay club is the first place he'd of gone to when he got off the plane.

KP would be 'Cabin Crew'.
