Presidents, prime ministers, royalty, and religious leaders rushed to extend their condolences to victims and their families â€” as well they should â€” while decrying the hate that purportedly motivated the shootings.

Without exception, the mainstream media gave top billing to the shootings, with newspapers carrying the story on their front pages and television news channels leading off their broadcasts with the story.

Thank you for that link. It's a horrible story and I thank God we live in the USA. I'd say shame on the Media, Congress, and President for letting this happen, but I only found out about it last post. Was it live streamed?
