Worst Mass Shooting in U.S. History Caused by ISIS Supporter · 2:11am Jun 13th, 2016
The worst mass shooting incident in U.S. history unfolded at an Orlando gay nightclub during LGBTQ pride month early this morning. At least 50 people have died, and 53 were injured, when a gunman (who the FBI has determined was an ISIS supporter) opened fire at the club.
Already, headlines are screaming and both sides of the political spectrum are pinning the blame on the usual targets (guns for liberals, Islam for conservatives). But right now, I ask that we put aside such childish acts of blame, and come together as brothers and sisters, to mourn for those whose lives were cut short or forever altered for the worse, by this senseless act of violence. For today, we must stand united against the world of terrorism, and show all around the world that we are united not in fear or in hatred, but in love.
May we observe a moment of silence for the victims, and pray that this horrific act will not be repeated!
RIP all of those who lost their lives in this tragic occurrence. Me and my family are honoring them by putting candles that change colors in our windows and hanging a light that does the same thing. I believe this song fits this situation best:

We need to come together and make sure animals like that guy don't try to attack any more innocent people.
My mom, my brothers, and I lit a candle of Saint Jude and said a prayer.
