If the Obama administration was investigating Hillary with this much vigor, she would be in jail already.

Actually, lets put this in perspective, The NRA did not kill those people, nor did the gun, as much as this guy was not any sort of Jihadist. If anyone wants to believe this guy was some sort of ISIS surrogate, think again.  It is no better than the guy who kills people and claims god made him do it. 

The evidence states otherwise.

During the attack, Omar told the authorities that he was an ISIS surrogate.  After the attack, ISIS told the authorities that Omar was an ISIS surrogate. In a dozen Muslim countries (representing about 100 million people) the sentence for homosexuality is death. Omar's family came from one of those countries. These Muslim countries have no Christian counterparts where homosexuality warrants a death sentence. Omar's family attended mosques where Imams openly preach that it's ok to kill homosexuals.  No Christian churches teach such things. No Christian bishops teach such things. Omar's entire family knew of his plans to become a martyr. That's why Omar gave his house to his sister before the attack, and why he was communicating with his wife during the attack. They were ok with his plans, and now they're covering for him. That's why they didn't go to the authorities, and why his wife will soon be arrested.

All rights are universal.

Patently false. No one has the right to enter any country they please. No one has the right to vote wherever they please.

It really just depends on the definition of what we're considering s 'right'. 

And why the hell does iOS leave a standalone 's' when I mean to hit 'a'? It doesn't correct it. This is a fresh set of autocorrect definitions and it still does this.

I was speaking of the rights of citizens within the USA. For example, life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. 

Marriage is not a right.  It is a legal and spiritual contract/covenant between two people who meet the qualifications.

Some facts to consider...

In 2015, police killed (in the line of duty) nearly twice as many white people as black people.

The last two days of Reichwing bullcrXX made me hunt for the ignore feature. Click on their name which brings you to a summary page of their postings. Look in the upper right quadrant to find the ignore option. Amazing how many Reichwing crazies are out there and so many either just appear out of nowhere or have thousands of posts and no real life.

An effective tactic for those who cannot support their opinions with facts and evidence.

This will be (yet again) an election between bad choices. You vote for the "least bad", but really the popular vote is meaningless. It is delegates who choose the president in the Electoral College.

Actually, the *only* candidate that is a constituionalist is Ted Cruz, and he is the only one who didn't say to let the FBI have it's way - he said Apple should work with the FBI to come to a resolution and to have a larger discussion about technology and privacy, which will have to take place in congress...  If you value the constitution of the United States, and all of your freedoms that it protects, then Ted is the only choice this time around.

It's also worth noting that only Trump, Cruz, and Sanders are threatening to dismantle the "Washington establishment" pay-to-play network that secretly controls both parties behind closed doors.  And that's also why each party hates these candidates.

For me, Sanders is out because he's a socialist.  Plus he has no real chance against the Clinton machine.

That just leaves Trump and Cruz, both of whom can beat Hillary. Their ideologies are different, but their platforms are similar.

Nothing "ISIS" about him. The president couldn't do anything to prevent it. Congress could have, but they bend over and take it when the NRA says to, so they didn't. 

If if you get "news" from Breitbart you will remain ignorant. 

The shooter said he was ISIS:

And ISIS said he was ISIS:

He was a very devout Muslim, even travelling to Saudio Arabia for pilgrimages twice:

In the mosques near Orlando, Imams preach that gay people should be killed:

To be any more ISIS, Omar would need a white Toyota Tundra with a machine-gun mount.

The choices aren't ideal, I don't think anybody can argue differently. However Trump isn't as bad as the media makes him out to be. It is pretty obvious the media is heavily biased against republicans in any form.

It is especially obvious when the media calls Trump a racist when he wants to secure our borders. Think about it what are you suppose to call the people on our southern border if not Mexicans. There are many problems with unsecured borders and frankly some of them are directly related to terrorism. What is America going to think when car bombs become the order of the day.

Yes, the media and members of both parties are desperately trying to distort Trump's simple pro-USA platform:

Secure the southern border to stop the flow of illegals and drugs.

Streamline legal immigration of the best from other countries.

End the "anchor-baby" and "sanctuary-city" loop-holes.

Keep un-vetted migrants out of the USA. Setup safe-zones in their land.

Build a very strong military.  Peace through strength.

Fix our VA system and treat our vets better.

Lower tax rates and simplify the tax code. Eliminate rich-only deductions.

Destroy ISIS, not just contain them.

Reduce federal waste and balance the federal budget.

Utilize all forms of domestic energy for energy independence.

Repeal Obamacare, replacing it with open competition-based reforms.

Put states back in charge of things like education. No common core.

Fund and fix our US transportation infrastructure.

Negotiate better trade deals to address the USA's huge trade deficits.

Prevent Iran from becoming a nuclear power.  Protect Israel.

Honor the 2nd-Amendment. Make carry permits universal across states.

Defund Planned Parenthood unless they stop performing abortions.

Might be a smart move, but seriously what is an adult gay man doing fundraising for a major Republican?

Last week, 100+ gay peole were systematically shot by an ISIS Jihadist at a nightclub in Orlando. Our Democrat President failed to to prevent this terrorist attack. There were plenty of advanced warnings, but his FBI declared these warnings to be Islamaphobia. They determined this ISIS Jihadist was a victim, free to purchase any guns he wanted. And now, instead of blaming ISIS, the Demorat party is only blaming the RNC and the NRA. Now they're even redacting/editing the 911 transcripts to not implicate ISIS and Islam:

http://www.breitbart.com/national-security/2016/06/20/public-outcry-forces-obamas-hand-uncensored-orlando-transcripts-released/

Pretty much guarantees that something similar will happen again. The DNC is good at protecting gay people from Christian pastry chefs who won't bake for them, but the DNC is very very bad at protecting gay people from slaughter by Islamic jihadists.
