Wow. Sen. Bill Nelson, a Democrat, just said there are preliminary ISIS ties. He also said something amazing about how we all need to come together as Americans, not “hyphenated Americans.”

Like I posted earlier, one liberal protected class shoots up (with an "assault rifle!") another liberal protected class's hang out.

A liberal conundrum to be sure..

WFTV9 reporter on scene said the shooter had 2 hand guns.
Casings from 3 different weapons were found.

Or perhaps they were from the other shooters a witness claimed he saw...

Obama to speak to the nation 1:30 p.m. EDT.

We all know what he is going to say and not say: He say the words “Gun Control” and not “Islamic Terrorism.”

Fox reporting Mateen was subject to TWO terrorist investigations, the latest one in 2013; they were closed with no further action.

Yet Congress won’t stop Obama’s increased migrant policy, 100 a day. How many is that before he leaves office.

The kenyan’s goat is cooked. I imagine they are busy scrubbing the FBI files as I type.

I heard that but he also said he was not an arms expert, so MSNBC does broadcast the truth once in a while.

Guest commentator on WFTV9 said from other shootings (Paris, Sandy Hook, etc.) they have learned that they cannot simply wait these situations out. The perp(s) will continue to shoot as long as they have ammo and opportunity.

Police were delayed because they didn't know exactly where the shooter or shooters were. As they got more info, they learned that people were hold up in the women's restroom. They went through the outer wall to reach them. The outside wall offered some protection due to its concrete construction.

They then went through the outside wall into the men's restroom and managed to save some, but engaged the shooter there.

Police had to be tactical. They couldn't just rush in and start shooting.

They were in negotiations with the shooter for a couple of hours. When negotiations seemed to break down, they mounted the attack.
