Fifty people lost their lives due to one person filled with hatred. There are no words for how terrible that is.

Any religion that kills people is not connected to the God I know.

I think his name is Muhammed Omar Mateen.

You are not allowed to conceal carry (even with a permit)in any portion of an establishment licensed to dispense alcoholic beverages for consumption on the premises, which portion of the establishment is primarily devoted to such purpose;

Also, patrons are searched before entering the bar, so you wouldn't get past the front door with it unless you went in at 2 am when most people are leaving. The shooter also knew that.

...and was a US citizen - born in New York City and living in Port St. Lucie, Florida.

Reported on television that his father said the man had become extremely angry a few weeks ago about seeing two men kissing in Miami.

His ex-wife said he was a very unstable person and would beat her for not having daily chores done. Yet, he was employed as an armed security guard and allowed to have gun licenses? Something not right about that, is there?

Interestingly, the prohibition against concealed carry in an alcohol dispensing establishment does not apply to current and qualified retired law enforcement officers who are carrying under the provisions of the federal Law Enforcement Officer's Safety Act (LEOSA). There are several hundred qualified carriers in The Villages.

Unfortunately, the owner of the business has the authority to exclude them, and many do. File that under "Stupid."

For quite a while (in California) I used to hang out with a retired LA County deputy sheriff. He ALWAYS carried, everywhere, as did his LEO friends. When I was getting to know him he explained that he had arrested many violent felons who went to prison and who had vowed to kill him so he was always alert to one of them turning up to hurt or kill him. Smart man!

Oh come on!

You would be in favor of allowing guns being in nightclubs where drinking takes place among young people?

How about allowing - or actively encouraging - that handguns or rifles of any type be brought into sporting venues such as college and professional football, basketball, or baseball games? After all, some stadiums hold 60,000 or 70,000 people and would make excellent terriost targets.

What could possibly go wrong with armed spectators amped up on beer and testoserone while their team loses - or wins?
