49 people were killed and 58 people were wounded in one of the unforgettable terrorist attacks, that was a ga-y night club. This terrorist attack was remembered since it was one of the worst that had happened since 9/11. The Orlando night club shooting was a massive display of gruesome acts that people can do in the wake of their anger and hatred. Such events shake the base of humanity, doubting the difference that humans might be having from animals, rather, animal posses more empathy. Moreover targeting a ga-y community, especially people who were Latinos, and thus this is one of the worst hate crimes that have happened against the LGBT community.
The aftermath was terrrible as the families suffered unprecedented of their family members. It is surprising how an event which was meant for enjoyment was demolished with full vigour. Yes, there were prayers and condolences given throughout country, with most of the politicians, not refraining themselves to voice of how loathsome the incident was, but even today, do we see acceptance of the LGBT community, the way they should be accepted. I don’t think the answer would be a positive yes, if acceptance was there, there wouldn’t be be such a huge LGBT movement. Such politicians, not doing as they say, display the heights that hypocrisy can attain and do not really deserve the place to serve people.
