This isn’t just another shooting.
This is now officially, with over 50 casualties, the worst mass shooting in United States history. And the fact that it took place at a gay club was not merely coincidence. This was not just another act of senseless violence in America. This was a hate crime.
A man walked into a safe space for the LGBT community with an assault rifle and lined them up and slaughtered them.
Don’t do what the media is inevitably going to do. Don’t erase where this happened and who this happened to.
When you make your statements for/against gun control, remember this was a hate crime. When you make your statements about the gunman’s reported religious beliefs, remember this was a hate crime. When your politicians make empty promises about changing the way things are, remember this was a hate crime. When you make your statements about the media’s coverage of this, remind everyone this was hate crime.
Do not gloss over the identities of the victims. They were killed for them. This was a hate crime.
Latin night. Latin night at a gay club. I know not everyone there was strictly Latinx but please overall don’t erase our skin, either, please. Don’t overlook that.
Even if the shooter wasn’t white, don’t overlook that. You can be POC and still have a hatred and prejudice towards other minority races.

christina grimmie was only 22 when some dick decided to shoot her for no apparent reason whatsoever and kill himself afterwards in her fucking concert. no one is safe anymore you can’t even enjoy music without the fear of someone shooting you? america, change your fucking laws.
and to all those who say: “Now is not the time to politicize her death by discussing gun control.” I ask exactly WHEN would be the right time?
How many more innocent lives must be lost before it’s “the right time” to wake up and admit this country has a gun problem?

Hazel: What is that?
Percy: That, my dear Hazel, is what we call a monster
Hazel: …
Hazel: You don’t know what it is, do you?
Percy: I told you what it is, it’s a horrible monster. Now shut up before it comes over here and eats us.
