This is beautiful and touching.
"When a violent act targeting members of the LGBTQI2S community becomes the worst mass-shooting in U.S. history, the sense of hurt and loss resonates globally," Egale Canada, a national LGBT rights organization, said in a statement.
"We must honour the victims of this tragedy by continuing to embrace inclusively in the face of adversity, and demonstrate that hatred and violence accomplish nothing of value or merit."
Not sure if this video has already been posted, but there's been a big argument on the UK's Sky News about exactly this point

If the shooting had occurred at, say, a bar frequented by American military personnel in Germany I believe we would all be willing to immediately consider the place was chosen specifically to hit Americans. Who would dare say "This had nothing to do with Americans" in that case?

That was Cruz and Huckabee? Who was the pastor?
Yeah, kind of like the time another islamic terrorist opened fire on his coworkers at Fort Hood? It was painted as 'workplace violence' instead of terrorism, despite the shooters steadfast admission it was because of his religious beliefs. Fort Hood was a gun free zone. Terrorists have a way of gravitating anywhere where they're insured the path of least resistance.

Terrorists would never admit to being cowards. But they would love to claim that they surpassed all obstacles, when, maybe, the security measures against them failed.Why? They are the ultimate cowards.
The gunman who killed at least 50 people at an Orlando nightclub early Sunday sent a Facebook friend request to the owner of another gay club last week, raising the possibility that he may have targeted other LGBT clubs in the area.
"I complained multiple times that he was dangerous, that he didn't like blacks, women, lesbians and Jews," Gilroy told The Times on Sunday.
He pledged allegiance to ISIS and had the same ideology but you will not hear this from the administration that refuses to call them ISIS but chooses ISIL for some weird reason and once claimed that ISIS is the "JV team".Yeah, kind of like the time another islamic terrorist opened fire on his coworkers at Fort Hood?
