The press blamed Christian conservatives for the Pulse nightclub shooting. It was a vicious smear.

The June 12, 2016, Pulse nightclub shooting is, among other things, a searing indictment of the national press’ eagerness to believe the absolute worst about the Right and about Christians in particular. It was casually assumed that the gunman, Omar Mateen , targeted Pulse specifically because it was a gay bar. But even more than that, his avowed Islamic State affiliation was overlooked so that certain reporters, pundits, and editorial boards ( ahem, New York Times ) could claim that the shooting was motivated by conservative U.S. politics and "an effort to approve discrimination against gay and transgender people nationwide under the guise of religious freedom." So, this is how an Islamic terror attack was blamed on American conservatives and Christians. Some outlets went even further, concocting a conspiracy theory that the Pulse shooting had nothing to do with Islamic terrorism — that Mateen was an uncomfortably closeted homosexual and a regular at Pulse,

Of course, we’ve only got Mateen’s word for that. Though many, call them “Republicans

Obama designates a homosexual location as a national monument - in so doing burns his nation

President Obama designated the first national monument to the immoral homosexuality, commemorating the Sin of Stonewall uprising in New York City nearly five decades ago. Why celebrate sin? What acknowledge a false idol for all Americans to see?  Using his executive authority under the 1906 Antiquities Act, Obama protected a 7.7-acre area in Greenwich Village that encompasses the Stonewall Inn, Christopher Park and a maze of surrounding streets that were the place of rioting in late June 1969 - this is simply idol worship prohibited by scripture. Decalring what is wrong and sinful now as good and healthy. The site memorializes the six-day immoral uprising that started June 28 after police correctly raided the Stonewall Inn, a Mafia-owned bar frequented by homosexual men. While patrons of the bar had complied in the past with these crackdowns, that raid sparked a spontaneous riot by bystanders and those who had been detained for performing public homosexual sex in toilet
