It's an interesting point raised. This tragedy happens right in the middle of a heavy campaign for the next Presidency.
As for Mr. Trump being pro gun, since the saying "It's too late to close the gate after the horses have bolted"....meaning, so many people in America, so many guns, it can't be controlled like it was here in Australia, after the Port Arthur massacre, we handed in our semi auto and auto guns (pump action etc), as it was easier then, to stamp on the problem before it became too big or out of control....so since there are bolted horses in the USA all over the place, with too many gates left open, the answer is what Trump is advocating...more guns...

How would you feel if you were to live over there in the USA?

My honest opinion.....I was over in Calif USA for the first time in my life last month, and I felt this urge to want to buy a gun (for protection) for some reason, as we went hereto and thereto, knowing that they are all so gun ownership mad over there, I think I would definitely be purchasing a few if I were to live there (for protection purposes of course, and only because, I would be able to if I were a citizen of the US of A)....Okay, my second thought was, if some mass shooting happens, hopefully, the person next to me has a gun....
.....and that was my mentality whilst over there. The hubby said, being in large groups or gatherings is a worry.
We went to Disneyland, on a very heavily crowded and busy Sunday, as part of their 60th birthday. (It blew our minds how many people were there, I will never again complain about a bit of crowding or queuing in Melbourne ever again!)
The lines were long, and it took ages......and then, there are these check point, with quite a few very big hefty looking security guys....all checking our bags and us, before being allowed into the grounds. (That gave me some comfort of being in a large crowded situation, in the USA).
Was there any checking at this night club in Orlando as such, or any nightclub or large gathering for that matter? Did anyone have a gun for protection purposes, aka becoming a hero so less people are killed etc?

And the old adage of it's not guns that kill people...etc then, what are guns made for.....machine guns or repeater guns that do the maximum damage? 

So the answer to America's problem is, Trump for President now?

Yes.

But we still have his fellow homophobes, such as yourself, supporting him.

Quite disturbing.

Here's an interesting little point.

The shooter came to the attention of the FBI twice for making pro-terrorist comments.

Whenever we have reports of Muslims being arrested and questioned in Australia on similar or more serious incidents, the usual suspects here, particularly Greggy comment on how it's all probably just police fabrications.

Maybe next time an arrest is made, stop and thank police that a catastrophe has been averted.

Are you going to apologise for calling ME a homophobe, Greggy?

I've never said any such thing, and you know it.

Now, back to the point you keep avoiding: why are you openly supporting this homophobic murderer - does it have something to do with your own homophobia?

And, do you think Trump is kicking himself that it didn't happen closer to the election?

Lol at Groggary frantically trying to make this about anything but what it is. He has more twists and turns than an Olympic diver.

What you don't understand is that leftards do not want catastrophe to be averted, why else do you think that it is so important to them to flood the country with disgruntled muslims.
