While being questioned, Braxton told police the victim on the couch was a "shrine from God" and was actually her own body. She later told police that the victim had been shot in the eye for not believing in God.

Obama's tears are real to me. I've cried when thinking about what happened there. I can still see their faces.
I wonder if he's shed any tears over the innocent children killed under his orders by assassination drones. He bears much more direct guilt for that.
Probably not. Still think those tears are real.
Mother, her 2-year-old daughter dead in shooting in Prince George’s County
4 people shot and killed in Kansas. Many many...30 others injured......
Unbelievable! This will never never end.
I was having a light night listening to the GOP destroy themselves, damn.
and now, another Police Officer shot and killed in Colorado...Happy Thursday.
Hours after gun-rights advocate Jamie Gilt bragged on Facebook that her 4-year-old son “gets jacked up to target shoot,” the same child accidentally turned his mother into a target, shooting her in the back.

Police officer in Maryland fatally shot in "unprovoked attack"
Thoughts out to Orlando and the gay community. There are no words.
And during Pride. And on a night celebrating Latino culture.
I am sick, I have so many good friends who live in Orlando. My prayers go out to the victims, their friends and family and to the entire GBLT community of Orlando.
And the Latino community.
I'm thinking about those Puerto Rican mothers in Orlando, whose sons and daughters went out dancing to celebrate Latino Pride. Maybe they had trouble accepting their children because of their Catholicism, maybe they never accepted them and now they feel guilty, maybe they accepted them from the beginning. But now they're dead, and those mothers are grieving

Was looking back on this thread, why does 4 months ago since the last one seem like a long time? What's happening to us?
It's a dreamer who says no more assault weapons. Feeling lonely, angry on a different plain. God I hate guns.

We could thank the 'Religion of Peace' for the innocent 49 lives lost in Orlando.

Sure, we could do that. Or we could take our time to observe all of the factors that led to that horrific event and then draw some rational conclusions. Or I guess we could just be lame internet trolls who say dumb s*** like that.

Obviously there were many factors involved - but let's not ignore that Islam (along with other religions or social attitudes) should be criticised for their role in this shooting. Any institution that promotes negative attitudes towards homosexuality is implicated in this shooting. I'm tired of people claiming to avoid 'islamophobia' in a time like this. Now is exactly the time we should be standing up and telling people we won't stand for these attitudes that have, along with other factors, led to the death of 49 innocent individuals.

^ Well said. I'm particularly proud of homosexual muslims who are finally starting to speak out against the horrendous treatment of LGBT+ community members in the Islamic faith.
