It's very sad when a man like Trump, who is filled with so much hate, uses a tragedy to spread his racism and fear-mongering. He lied when he said the shooter was born in Afghanistan, when he was a U.S. citizen, born in New York. I watched him lie and he didn't even flinch. It's as if he realizes it makes no difference to his followers who don't care about facts.

Today should be a day of mourning and prayer for the families.

He didn't lie... he misspoke... and corrected it in the very same sentence.

It's amazing how you people are so quick to point that out LOL...

(from the speech thread)

Our immigration system is broken, and of no use and actually dangerous to the citizens of this country. This administration has failed us on foreign policy and what is worse, they want to flood this country with more immigrants hostile to our way of life, while taking away our ability to defend ourselves. Not good.
Now tell me again why you support Hillary?

No he didn't.

"The killer was born an Afghan, of Afghan parents who immigrated to the United States,"

You mean kinda like how sane people ignore Hillary?


Yeah, that's about right.


And people don't know you've put them on ignore unless you tell them, so you're wrong about ****ing them off, as you say.


When the Cankle Cow drops her Secret Service detail, she might have a point. 'Til then, nope! Just another babbling fool.

Omar Mateen Probed for Terror Ties but Legally Purchased Weapons - NBC News

1. Why don't we give the the families more than 2 1/2 days to morn before we start to us then for one's political agenda.

2. From the article

Quote:
Omar Mateen used a legally purchased AR-15-style weapon to massacre at least 49 people in an Orlando gay club early Sunday. The FBI had looked into him twice with inconclusive findings — not that a different result necessarily would have mattered
3.
Quote:
The American-born Matten had security and firearm licenses and his guns were legally purchased within the past week.

4.
Quote:
It was not immediately clear what if any watch list Mateen was on at the time of the Orlando massacre — though he had come across the FBI's radar on more than one occasion

Not too sure anyone could have legally stopped this guy from buying by guns even with tougher laws.

He didn't lie about anything. Here is the transcript of his speech:

MSM twisting reality once again to take the focus off of real issues.

Truth and Common sense gets a person on your ignore list?

Why not try and refute the "ridiculous statements"?

Oh yeah, I forgot .. You can't!
