Of war inflict on so many young lives. I have said this before, we will not be able to stop every tragedy. We cannot wipe away hatred and evil from every heart in this world. But we can stop some tragedies. We can save some lives. We can reduce the impact of a terrorist attack if we are smart. If we do not act, we will keep seeing more massacres like this. Because we will be choosing to allow them to happen. We will have said, we do not care enough to do something about it. Here in orlando, we are reminded not only of our obligations as a country, to be resolute against terrorism, we are reminded not only of the need for us to implement smarter policies, to prevent mass shootings. We are also reminded of what unites us as americans. And what unites us is far stronger than the hate and target us. Tose who for so many people here, lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, the pulse nightclub has always been a safe haven. A place to sing and dance, and most importantly to be who you truly are.
