What came first with you on this morning?
Danny r:,, the bizarre gun laws in the US. There are many ' shootings '. As long as the gun lobby here is large, you will continue to keep this terrible shootings. Here in Florida, it is quite easy to of weapons, even semi-automatic weapons. If I have a gun do? Of course not, I'm firmly against gun ownership. Many Americans rely on the first amendment to the US Constitution, but it is not that you semi-automatic weapons. If we can mitigate that initially, then you reduce the chance of such a large attack. With a ' just ' weapon you can't kill dozens of people. ''
Are you worried that ' the normal ' Muslims in Orlando with Islamophobia to make it go?

We are good citizens of this country and can only try to help the American society, we can do no more. ''
Muslim organisations have already make themselves heard?
,, CAIR, the largest Muslim organization in the US, has already condemned the attack. Also the Union of mosques in Florida has make themselves heard. But every Muslim should condemn such an attack would, even outside the US. Because if you kill one person, it is as if you all mankind kills.
