HuffPro reports Fla Gov Scott Walker called for a moment of scilence
Understandable, since all white male straight Republican governors look alike.

"A previous version of this article incorrectly referred to Gov. Scott Walker asking for a moment of silence. Scott Walker is the governor of Wisconsin; Rick Scott is the governor of Florida."

RE: HuffPro reports Fla Gov Scott Walker called for a moment of scilence
Huffpoo figured it was close enough for the libturds that read their trash, as they wouldnt know the difference. They also figured blaming christians, guns, and republicans for orlando was close enough to the truth for the libturds as well.

Did Rick Scott mention the word Gay? Or LGBT in the 7 am press conference? His press release didn't mention it this morning. Again.

A moment of silence? Whatever.

Just watched his interview on Today this morning. He cannot even say the friggin' word. I suppose he has to pretend that we aren't Gay for him to even talk about us in death.

If someone shot up a Synagogue, he'd see this as an attack on the Jewish community.

Don't know what Scott said. But I do know that Hillary is concerned about a backlash against Muslims. (Link )

No, he certainly sees us as a target class when he supports discrimination against us. http://www.orlandosentinel.com/opinion/o...olumn.html

Obama clearly mentioned this as an attack on the LGBT community. And he called it a hate crime too. http://abcnews.go.com/US/president-obama...d=39794617

Hillary referenced it in her statements...http://www.koat.com/news/in-wake-of-orlando-massacre-hillary-clinton-says-hate-has-no-place-in-america/40022744

Bernie is irrelevant. I'm sure he said the right things here though too.

Trump...Too busy high fiving himself to even acknowledge that it was an attack on the LGBT community.

Scott...repeatedly refuses to even acknowledge us by name in death. https://www.rawstory.com/2016/06/rick-sc...nightclub/

In order for some Republicans to even condemn mass killings of us, they have to pretend we aren't Gay. Don't wonder why we reflexively vote against the GOP.

Funny how you only call out Republicans, and dismiss the fact that Hillary never said "gay" or anything like that. Same with Bernie, how is he irrelevant? He is still running to be President. Your hate is showing Tom.

You want equal treatment under the law yet you dont want Republicans to know you are different. What is that you want? Do you want us to treat you equally or to treat you special?

Yes, we want equal treatment. They don't pretend that Jews weren't targeted because they were Jews when a Synagogue gets shot up. They don't pretend that Blacks weren't targeted when someone shoots up a church. Treat us like any other minority that faces discrimination when they are attacked.

But the GOP has to shove 50 dead bodies into a friggin' closet before they can talk about them. Happy Pride Week.

We see them as americans.

I remember a time, not too long ago, that gays would be butthurt if you referred to their club as a "gay" club. They would call you a bigot.

So make up your damned mind. Are you gay, or are you american.

It is a muslim terrorist, of course they want to impose a death sentence on gays. Everybody knows this. Have to imagine straight people were also victims. Not everyone in gay bars and clubs is gay.

It's not really debatable that this was a domestic terrorist attack by a Muslim motivated by Islam on the LGBTQ community. Why can our leaders not expressly say as such?

Darts at a fvucking phone book would give us a better political class.

If I get shot it won't be mentioned that I'm heterosexual.

Equal treatment would indicate that the same should apply.

We must report that the club was targeted based on its gay clientele. It is right to do so.

That does not mean we must report the sexual orientation of each victim...or that we must call this a gay tragedy since, chances are, some non-gay individuals were also victims.

Did Rick Scott mention the word Gay? Or LGBT in the 7 am press conference? His press release didn't mention it this morning. Again.

A moment of silence? Whatever.

Just watched his interview on Today this morning. He cannot even say the friggin' word. I suppose he has to pretend that we aren't Gay for him to even talk about us in death.

If someone shot up a Synagogue, he'd see this as an attack on the Jewish community.

You are just looking for something to complain about Tom. Scott was very reverent in his comments as to the victims and families. It was not the time to make social or political statements directly after this heinous tragedy. Id guess more comments will come out as the days progress.

Equal treatment would indicate that the same should apply.

We must report that the club was targeted based on its gay clientele. It is right to do so.

That does not mean we must report the sexual orientation of each victim...or that we must call this a gay tragedy since, chances are, some non-gay individuals were also victims.

He drove past 10,000 general purpose venues in the 2 hours between his home and the Gay club.

And to not mention the community at all is insulting to the victims and to the community from which they came.

Look we all know the real reason Scott and Trump won't mention it.
