Ärende: Carnage in Orlando
==========================
Hello Everybody,

A female pop star assassinated.  And then, at a gay club, fifty
people gunned down, with another fifty-three wounded.  America and
guns.  Don't you love it?

One gunman.  Inspired by ISIL.  50 dead.  53 wounded.  And we are
told Islam is a religion of peace?  Such acts of violence should be
condemned by all, including Muslims, not praised as acts of greatness.

The 22-year-old woman who was gunned down was a popular singer,
inviting all to come see her show.  The only thing she was guilty
of was showing people a good time.  The 50 people who were gunned
down, along with another 53 people wounded, were guilty only of
being gay, if that is a crime at all.

Until the US gets serious about putting limitations on who can
legally obtain guns, these acts of violence will continue.  If you
think the number of dead and wounded in Orlando was bad, wait until
the next carnage.  Or the the one after that.  Et al infinitum.

Last night it was the gays.  Tomorrow it might be women.  The
next night a lone gunman might choose to target children.  Or
even infants.  Wouldn't that be sweet?  Lone gunman walks into
a nursery and takes out 100 babies, leaving no survivors.

Don't laugh.  It could happen.  One guy took out a whole class
of first graders not too long ago ...
