Because it's all about control, with human expression being a prime target.

i'm not saying they don't exist, i'm saying they're not as common as you may think.

The shooting in Orlando at Pulse, which bills itself as "the hottest gay bar" in the city and was packed with more than 300 people, was reported minutes after 2 a.m. Sunday. In addition to those killed inside the club, at least 42 people were taken to area hospitals. Dozens of party-goers remained hostages in the club for several hours after the initial shooting, prompting SWAT teams to pour inside. Shortly after 6 a.m. local time, Orlando police tweeted that the gunman had been killed.
It is suspected the club was targeted because it was a gay club. It is the worse mass shooting in America, it is similar to the Bataclan shooting in Paris.

@Neapolitan i really don't understand why you felt the need to quote what i said and then quote something about the shooting.

you make it sound like i was denying the existence of extremist muslims or gay hating muslims which um... i never did...

and of course it was targeted because it was a gay club. DUH. muslims don't like gays. why do you think i'm still in the closet?

i said suicide attacks are not exclusive to muslims WHICH IS TRUE

and i said the middle east isn't full of jihadis WHICH IS TRUE. even in the middle east, they're not very common.

anyway it is very sad what has happened and my thoughts go out to all the families of the victims may they rest in peace.

I saw that the article claimed the shooter might have been associated with ISIS, but I read nothing to back that up. I wouldn't at all be surprised if this was ISIS inspired, but is there any actual evidence that it was anyone actually associated with ISIS?

I ask because it could be the difference between just an increase in anti-Islam rhetoric and a step up in American military involvement in Syria and Iraq.

@pg It was a continuation of the conversation we had earlier, where I mentioned groups that are targeted by militant jihadists. It is too early to tell his motives. It is a sad example.

And you say **** them all because a minuscule percentage of them are radical extremists? I'm talking like 1/10th of 1 percent?

Might as well say **** all religions then.

Kinda like abortion clinics, doctors, and workers targeted by militant Christians?
