Orlando nightclub shooting

[Jim Watson]

I believe in a case like this I would waive the rule for direct transfusion only. No doubtful blood in the blood bank, just trust your in group.

Governor Scott declared state of emergency hours ago. Red Cross is setting up satellite stations all over central FL. One is opening by us at noon. There will be no shortage of blood.

Fox is reporting 50-ish confirmed dead and 50-ish in hospital care.

Sparklefart will be making a statement soon, which will include the following:

Gun control
Not saying the words "radical islamic terrosist"
Anti-NRA rhetoric
More gun control
"...jump to conclusions..."
"...our hearts go out to the victims and the families..."
"...pattern now of mass shootings in this country that has no parallel anywhere else in the world..."
"...common-sense gun safety laws, stronger background checks..."
"...no-fly list..."
"...law that needs to be changed..."
"...we don't yet know what the motives of the shooter..."
"...make Americans safer..."
"...come together in a bipartisan basis at every level of government..."
"..."something that just happens in the ordinary course of events, because it doesn't..."
Even more gun control

We are fucking tired of your shit. It ain't the guns, it's the radical islamic terrorists that want to kill you, me and every other American.

It was a chaotic 3 hour scene. Multiple reports of additional shooters, devices being placed at hospitals, shots fired at the closest level 1 trauma center, two hospitals placed on black ( not taking anymore victims). OPD was on point and our MCI systems worked. I was proud to work for the city of Orlando last night, I will elaborate more when I can.

Good rant. 10/10.

Deleted. That came across wrong.

Brokaw was just warbling and emoting into the camera that we need to have a "prayerful" discussion about gun control, this before everybody's bleeding has even been controlled.

Some other talking head (didn't see which, I was down the hall in the loo by that point) wanted to know whether we should construe this as a terrorist attack or a "hate crime". Hey, numbnuts, how about it's both?

Shooter's dad's first comment to press concludes with "This is not about religion," which, of course, identified the shooter's religion before anybody in any of the press conferences had mentioned it.

The problem for us is that this was only one incident. Our hospital system would crash if we had multiple scenes/greater number of casualties to deal with. You hae to assume you really will be on your own for a while. Better have your aid kit stocked and know how to survive for a while.

Love the sig line, SLG. Two thumbs up.
