49 innocents were murdered. That number may increase with over 50 hospitalized. We have identified them, but police are releasing names only after family has been notified. Here’s who we know so far.

May they all rest in peace. In their names, let us focus on the truth and act on the reality of what they faced at that club. The attempts to politically obscure the hell they went through is itself obscene. Wemake sure their deaths are not in vain.

A GoFundMe page has been started for the victims and families.

    Thanks Tammy for publishing the names and the faces of those who were slaughtered. God in his mercy will receive them into heaven and wash away the blood they shed, of that I have no doubt. In the coming days we will hear of their many accomplishments and achievements, as well as their goals and hopes.Each was unique and precious and the world is less because they have left us so soon, but those who knew them will not forget, those who loved them will remember and we, fellow Americans, will not allow our sadness to keep us from continuing this fight against terror and hate, and we shall be victorious. Rest in peace,dear ones,and may the eternal light of heaven shine upon you always.

    RIP.

    It’s time for the LGBT community (and all Americans for that matter) to start voting as if their life depended on it.
