Sad thing is one of my first thoughts was "no one else had a gun in a night club?".
There was an armed, uniformed off-duty police officer working at the front door who immediately engaged the shooter who came in through the patio entrance but he couldn't stop him. I've also heard reports that at least 2 other people had guns (including one woman who died with a gun in her purse and a bartender or manager who had one in an office).

America Has Been At War 93% of the Time – 222 Out of 239 Years – Since 1776
America HAS been at war for 93% of our existence. In my lifetime we've been in war or acts of war for 85% of the time. Vietnam, Grenada, Panama, Somalia, Haiti, Serbia, Yemen, Afghanistan twice, Libya twice, Iran twice, Iraq twice, secret wars/coups in Chile, Nicaragua, Honduras twice, fighting against rebellions in Syria, Congo, Uganda. I've probably even missed a few.
America is defined by war. It's everywhere in our culture and it's in our gun laws. And yes, the Indian Wars do matter. They define who we are to this day in our gun laws. This cowboy mentality is why you are allowed to buy a gun like an AR-15 in America and it also defines the fear of the ignorant and uneducated republican Americans who believe they need a gun to defend themselves against 'the other' and their own government.

...this is what I reported. It's absolutely hate speech coming from someone who is not a supporter of gay people, especially after the killing of 49 people and shooting of 103 in a gay nightclub. This was the admin's response to me...

This is absolutely wrong and one of the many, many reasons why some players are stunned by the radically conservative views of the game owners, admins, mods and some players of this game. NO and I mean NO other game site would allow this statement to remain on their forum. It is incredibly unprofessional for a game company or admin to say something like this and a mod to joke about it and as always I'm amazed that you guys don't see that it's hurting your game.
(Preemptive statement: For all the new players here reading this, if I don't respond to this thread or to your PM's it's because they've banned me again for talking about moderation/admins even though I haven't posted about any SPECIFIC mod action that wasn't posted about by other people above.)
