WASHINGTON — Legislative leaders from Kansas have expressed their thoughts following the deadliest shooting in modern U.S. history.
Donald Trump is asserting there are thousands of people in the United States “sick with hate” and capable of committing the kind of shooting rampage that killed at least 50 people in a Florida nightclub. Trump also says Muslims in this country know who these radicals are and “should turn them in” to authorities.
Hillary Clinton told NBC’s “Today” show that she has a plan to defend the nation from “lone wolf” attacks. But she says she’s “not going to demonize and demagogue” as she says Donald Trump does, because “it’s plain dangerous.”
Our sympathy and prayers go out to the victims and all those who lost loved ones in the attack in Orlando today.
