An FBI spokesman said they were investigating whether the attacker was a "lone wolf". He said the attacker appeared to "have leanings towards" radical Islamist ideology but it was not yet clear whether this was a case of domestic or international terrorism.

I'm reading he exchanged gun fire with an officer and then ran into the club and took hostages.

Info subject to change as we learn more.

This could very well be Islamic related. It is Ramadan, and I don't think they're very fond of the LBGT community. As I understand it was a gay bar he attacked.

Christian bakers refuse to bake a gay wedding cake, sued by the government and condemned by all for Christianity's war on gays...Islamic man shoots up gay night club killing 50 people and the problem is clearly that we need more gun control.

Someone said they heard a "reporter" on ABC call this the worst terror attack in American history. I guess 9/11 was an bad accident.

This video was put up on youtube in April 2016. Not sure when the news report shown was first broadcasted

Gays Must Die Says Speaker At Orlando Mosque - WFTV 9 Orlando Report
https://youtu.be/qBlwxqqAprQ
In a 2013 speech Sheikh Sekaleshfar said this regarding gays, “Death is the sentence. We know there’s nothing to be embarrassed about this, death is the sentence...We have to have that compassion for people, with homosexuals, it's the same, out of compassion, let’s get rid of them now.”

Liberals: Muslims are peaceful people.
Conservatives: But they hate gays and infidels.
Liberals: You conservatives are hateful and racist for saying this.
