This will give Trump a bump in the polls. I'm confident he'll find a way to butcher it though.

Well each subreddit is mostly policed as a separate entity. The moderators at r/news are butchering this in epic proportions though.



Well, hoping this happens in a few hours:

Since the cycle time of the weapon is faster than the speed at which you can pull the trigger, the answer is that it can fire as fast as you can pull the trigger. Technically, the AR-15 fires 800 rounds a minute (source: Wikipedia), which is 13.3 rounds per second.


He's kind of right, idiot.

It can fire 119.7 rounds in nine seconds....

He's only "kind of right" if Abdullah had a fully automatic & belt-fed weapon.

Cyclic rate is more of theoretical number than a rate of fire in practical application. You can't load as fast as as a semi-automatic weapon can fire. And, in the highly unlikely event you're firing a belt-fed fully automatic weapon, if you are continuously firing at the full cyclic rate, you'll be burning out your barrel in very short order.

The idea behind a "hate crime" is absurd. That used to be called a "motive."

Is this still considered a mass shooting? Or is it a terrorist attack?

Reddit is confusing in their thread titles.

Agreed. You know this is how it will be spun. I'm eagerly awaiting King Bam Bam's address on this.

...during Gay pride week, I believe.




The ISIS support by the shooter is now being reported by all media outlets that I can find right now.

Who gives a shite? What, is he going to go to trial? Is labelling it a hate crime going to bring these people back to life? It's a terrorist attack and a hate crime. Any mass murder I think can safely be assumed its a hate crime.

It can't be both? It is a mass hate crime terrorist attack done by a muslim. Milo is going to go HAM at some campus event soon.

This. I'll call the mf'ers out. They condone this. frick'em all. Every single one I have ever known is militant to some degree toward the American way and Christianity. And with all they've let into med schools and residencies, I've known quite a few. Get a few drinks in them and then listen to the shite they spout. Watch how they treat women and minorities. Unless they can gain from them somehow or use them in some way, they will treat them like shite.

Just my observations. Don't like it? Ignore me. But I'm tired of listening to or reading dumbass apologetic liberal dipshits defend these mf'ers. They 100% hate our culture, country, and OUR religious freedom. You are either with them or against them. Their religion leaves no other options.

OH so according to NBC, two guys making out in Miami are responsible for this. This Muslim is clearly innocent, and we need to find two gay guys making out on South Beach.



To be fair to nbc they interviewed the shooters dad and that's what the dad said , nbc even said that it only the dads opinion ...

During Ramadan as well, maybe he was just hungry and his blood sugar was low so he got really upset and decided to kill some gays

Exactly. He will not be very tactful in his response to this, I'd imagine.

I worked for 8 years in the ED that's a couple of blocks away. Lots of craziness hearing from old friends who still work there.

People who were shot either walking up or being given carried into the hospitals doors, floods of people just continuing to come in.
