This Orlando massacre and multiple motives and narratives being told is sad. In the end I'm just hurt for all … https://t.co/6tOXX0s65Z

There is a real question that needs to be answered about the #OrlandoShooting. How did the gun get into the club with an AR 15, unseen?

Senseless violence against any group for any reason is repulsive and reveals how dark this world can be. Praying for those affected Orlando.
