What are you rambling on about? We still don't know the motive behind this. But I bet you didn't go and such a rant after the Orlando shooting ot am I incorrect?

I'm "rambling on" about the hypocrisy in how these situations are dealt with based on who the shooter is. 

Even in case of Orlando, IMO there are strong signs that was a "lone nut" shooter, dude visited a gay bar for several years, had dating profiles on gay websites, but is also an ISIS member? More likely he wanted to go on a shooting spree and just pinned the whole thing on being an religious extremist. 

But the difference is an entire group is indicted/judged on the actions of one person in those situations, but if it's a "crazy lone white guy" ... it's a completely different reaction especially from the political class in this country. "Nothing can be done, nothing to see here folkes, just send your prayers" blah, blah, blah. 

And what about the fact that the Orlando shooter stated that it was retaliation for ISIS members being killed? He may have been a lone wolf but we know what motivated him - the religion of peace.
