Nightclubs and bars are gun-free zones, according to every state that allows CCL, or open carry.
In Florida the only part (aka PORTION) of a bar or restaurant where you cannot carry is the bar area where the bartender works. You can carry in other parts of the place, like if you sit at a table.

Omar Mateen -- Terrorist Was 29-Year-Old Islamic Radical (PHOTO) | TMZ.com
He's an American citizen and he has family that are not -- his parents are Afghan.
Another case where an American citizen, aka anchor baby, is not influenced by their parentage.

Credit should ALWAYS go to the speechwriter, not the speech reader. Rarely, however, does that happen.





His the worst possible president at the worst possible time. He's a really conflicted guy -- his "father" was an alcoholic Muslim, and Obama himself has been dogged by rumors of homosexuality while he was a member of Rev. Wright's 'church'. The "apology" tour he did after the 2008 election exposed him for who he truly is at heart.

Mix all that in with an absolutely horrible foreign policy since 2009, and it's no wonder we're in this position.
He first reflex, like most of the political left, is to always deflect away from the stark naked aggression that is radical Islam. Like Hillary....he can not utter the word.

Funny how some bring out Christianity with the only intent to obfuscate what is clearly ONLY a Muslim phenomena at this point.

Find me ONE place on this beautiful earth where Muslims peacefully coexist with peoples of other religions without trying to convert everyone to Islam.

Just one.

Next thing you know they will blame law abiding gun owners, the NRA or "assault weapons", anything but Islam.

To be honest now that I sit and think about it Speaking on America.


A Muslim shooter may have pulled the trigger, but America loaded the gun.

The church (and its theology of hate) has been killing the spirits of white black and latino LGBT people for ages.

Orlando's shooting is not the product of Islamic extremism, it is the product of good old fashioned American heterosexism.

It actually makes perfect sense that the "worst mass shooting in US history" would be targeted at black and latino LGBT people.

Black and Latino LGBT people have been living in a state of emergency every day of their lives.

And then there is the particularity of Florida. What a legacy: the Republican state that produced George Zimmerman, the stolen election of 2000, and now the deadliest shooting in the history of America.
