Orelando Massacare, biggest shooting in our history.

Right in the middle of Pride week a massacare shooting at an Orlando gay nightclub. Most of the people shot were Latinos or gay men.

This is awful, are country in the 20th century should not being going through this, we have to support people in all communities, America is a land for everyone. There are many vigils going on in the area and I encourage people to please support them and attend them during this awful moment. Some other things you can do to help is if you live in the community is donate blood. Or if you are like me and don't live near Florida then you can:

  • Contact your local repersenatives and ask them to take action on gun saftey measures.
  • Promote LGBT equality.
  • Make a doation (below) to help the vitims and their families. 

One of the worst things about this attack is that it could have been prevented. We need to act on gun policies NOW, the gun that was used during the attack was legally bought a week before the attack. And, there were many reasons the shooter should not have been given that gun. For example, he was interveiwed by the FBI two times and beat his wife, there was also other suspicocions around him. 


 Obama had a great speech about the massacare saying this is a time where are country needs to mourn for the lost and heal but he also talked about solutions and said that we need to work on our gun policies. Hillary Clinton also adressed the topic with concern and said that our hearts are with victims and their families. Donald Trump, however, said that this shows how bad our countries' leaders are and he appreciates the congrats for being right on radical islamic terroism. Seriously?! Thats what you say at a time of crisis?! 

Thank you for reading and keep following my blog for more updates, I will be posting every month now!
