Orlando is still picking up the pieces following last weekend’s attack at Pulse night club, a gay bar south of Downtown Orlando. It has hit the entire community hard and touched off debates throughout the nation about gun rights, terrorism, LGBTQ rights and where and how all fit into society.
The pain will always be there for Orlando though. We have seen in the past week just how much this city can come together and be there for each other in the face of tragedy. Orlando’s local leaders, law enforcement, first responders and community have shined brightest in the darkest times.
