Gov. DeSantis orders flags at half-staff for Pulse Remembrance Day. OMG!

Omg, the irony of this is lost on these hypocritical fools.


Gov. Ron DeSantis has ordered flags at half-staff Sunday for Pulse Remembrance Day, honoring the 49 individuals who were murdered six years ago at an Orlando nightclub.

Pulse Remembrance Day commemorates what was at the time the deadliest mass shooting in U.S. history. On June 12, 2016, a shooter claiming allegiance to the Islamic State of Iraq targeted members of the LGBTQ community by committing a mass shooting at Pulse Nightclub in Orlando, a gay-friendly club, during Pride Month.

In addition to the 49 killed, 53 were wounded, making it the deadliest incident of violence against the LGBTQ community in modern U.S. history. The proclamation calls the tragedy “one of the darkest moments in our state’s history.”

"The state of Florida will not tolerate hatred towards the LGBTQ and Hispanic community of any kind, and together we stand united against terrorism and hate of any kind,” the proclamation reads.

The murdering bastard was Omar Mateen, an Islamic terrorist shouting Alluha Akbar as he slaughtered 49 homosexual infidels.

It's right up a right-wingers alley.

DeSatan has no heart, therefore, no compassion for the 49 innocent people murdered.

"The state of Florida will not tolerate hatred towards the LGBTQ and Hispanic community of any kind, and together we stand united against terrorism and hate of any kind,” the proclamation reads. Then get the fuck out of Florida, DeSatan. Resign immediately. Because you have done nothing but push and spew and legislate hatred toward us all year!!!!
