When tragedy strikes we fight on. When the nation is melancholy we care for family. When it seems all hope is lost we never give in til the end. Because we still love even when tragedy strikes again.

AN:
As many of you may know there was recently a mass shooting in the US, and it has been declared the largest mass shooting in US history with around 50 dead and 53 injured. Although I do not know any of those who died or were injured and I live in another state on the opposite side of the country. I would like to say that what happened was wrong and whether it was a hate crime, radicalism, mental instability or all three, there is no excuse for ending the lives of innocent people and I have sympathy towards those who were affected, so may those who were killed RIP, and may the US see brighter days.

PS.
For those of you who don't know, the shooting occurred at a gay night club in Orlando, Florida. It is believed to be a hate crime in association with ISIS. Additionally, not in association with ISIS a man was found in Santa Monica (closer to where I live) with a car full of weapons and said to police he was going to the gay pride. And all of this has occurred during gay pride month. If you want to know more I have attached a link to the news report on the shooting and Santa Monica  event.
