This is August 2019 and I almost lost it with him because he cares that is what I want to see in a reporter. He is very passionate that's what I like about him. I was surprised he held it together as well as he did.
Sorrious Sad “haha look at me guys, I’m so edgy. I don’t care about human beings, and it’s a completely foreign concept that others may actually have emotions.”
Cooper is a shill. He should never have tried to make this political issue. As they have not even buried the bodies yet... And where was he when the Liberals damn near beat two Gay guys to death for supporting Trump. Oh yea he was defending the protesters.. So as far as I'm concerned he is a political bigot hack, He only reports shit that makes his liberal party look good. Even if it means Hillary getting elected that wants to disarm everybody.. As if we need more body bags to cover their ideology. Why not it doesn't effect them. They got gated communities and armed guards to protect them!! Damn Hypocrites. Make me want to scream...
Some people are actually happy that this happened. I just can't wrap my head around the fact that some people are so brainwashed with hate and disgust that they are happy that 50 innocent people died just because they were proud of who they were and wanted to have a good time. I just don't have any words for the people who hate on other people because of something they can't control.
Yea, I don't agree with the homosexual lifestyle but I'd never wish then harm. I pray God has mercy on all these young men and women. The biggest issue I have is with the security measures of the nightclub. The bouncer who fell victim to the shooting was a short woman. She didn't even bare arms. Bouncers should always be big burley men or women...
It's not religious It's evil people who hide under religion to commit crime I don't agree with homosexuality,but it's wrong to harm them cause they re humans like us ,it could be straight pple who might hve died there ,mothers,brothers,sisters,uncle,may they continue to sleep on
If you have nothing good to say, just ignore the comments man. You won't do the world any good by bringing up his acting. People are grieving, so pls just go away.
***** Yea Ikr... they're bringing religion and all this nonsense in to justify the act. Like seriously they should have respect, not idiotic remarks regarding it
Outrageously logical! why not try to answer these questions? 1. the numerous video footage of crisis actors faking their injuries. One being victim carried, then let stand up on two feet unassisted 2. victims being carried TOWARDS the club instead of to the hospital 3. no ambulances, yet hospital only 6 blocks away 4. the event for that night was unlisted on the club's calendar, yet hundreds attended? 5. The "gunman" chose a gay club TWO HOURS away from his home while there were several closer to his home. what's so special with the Pulse? Need more critical thinking questions to ask?
He's totally right, you're being played for a fool. Do some research and find out who the real enemy is. Hint: you jumped to the conclusion that they were a conservative and a Christian, even though nothing in their statement indicated either. Can't you see you're being manipulated, and that this is just another divide and conquer tactic? They push the agenda of fear and division so hard that you will all split into factions, unwilling to stick up for each other, and then they will pick off each faction one by one, until eventually you will all be wearing shackles. And you're probably so dumb you'll still be blaming conservative Christians.
If you're just here to be negative and racist then just leave it's as simple as that. This is obviously a tragedy and nobody needs an attention seeker saying irrelevant things. It's easy to say things behind the screen we know but have some respect because this isn't about you.
So many beautiful faces lost their lives because people can not accept THE TRUTH.Religion is a big a problem in the world and it needs to be banned.You have the right to believe in your God but do it in your house,in your room,in your heart without harming others.Gay people never harmed anyone!!!!
I agree... but religion does not exist for itself. It is wanted and created by people, many people, everywhere in the world from the beginning of time. So I think the real problem is inside men... not religion itself. Man creates his own reality...
GUNS NEED TO BE BANNED! I love how Americans are all blaming religion and nothing about the fucking guns you don't need just because it's written in your crusty ass constitution. I'm sure the many recent mass shootings had nothing to do with religion, just psychos who had access to killing machines. Religion has it's problems but lets not deter from the real problem- which is America's gun laws. I'm sorry idk if you're American but every case I hear about a shooting breaks my heart and do not understand why Americans desparetly need to have guns on them it's rediculous

I'm sorry but you are wrong. Religion is not the problem. Religion is not a person who can go out and buy a gun. Religion is not a person that can go out and kill people. Religion is not someone who can commit such a senseless act of violence. Religion is none of these things, so get that thought out of your mind. The real problem here is guns and those people in society who believe it is okay to senselessly kill others in the name of religion. IN THE NAME OF RELIGION. It's not religion who is killing people, it's people killing other people.
to all the people still heartbroken, don't look in the comments. let the bigots believe their stupid lies because as the world becomes more accepting... they will be the outcasts, not us. stay strong, my lgbt family, stay strong.
Just ignore the assholes, they will be the ones that don't find true happiness or meaning in their lives. Just be the best version of yourself every day and love everyone.
Never mind, they are just young and stupid. Maybe when or if they grow up, they'll understand that love is love, and it doesn't matter gender wise..I am a 60 year old grandma, (straight) and have learned a lot in life.. Love is love, just keep remembering that..
Brenda McCool's story made me cry. A loving mom going dancing with her son to support him. And he survived. Can't even begin to imagine the pain he must be in. She survived cancer twice only to be shot down while spending time with her son. Nobody, nobody, nobody should ever have to go through something like that. To all the families/ friends of the victims, we love you. You're not alone.
Y’all can believe this is fake, but the pain in the survivors eyes were rain. 50 lives were lost, and you over here talking about your theories. How would you feel if you or your loved one lost their life and they said it was fake? Not good. Think before you speak😒
I should stop reading these comments people are so fucked up before you open your big mouth just think thousand times coz u will suffer one day for the hatred you spread.. out of all the news I've watched on this this is the best every one makes this political but it's not it's about 49 innocent people with their whole life ahead of them this can happen to any one so Atleast learn to respect ❤ life is too short and so unpredictable so learn to love
blame another dead bogey man, and believe everything you are told by your lovely uncorruptable representatives you heartless bastards. how very dare you ask questions about this event roadshow
I don't care about conspiracy theories or government propaganda 49 people died and I don't care whether it's because of a act of terrorism or what ever it is... People should have empathy Who ever does this it can be you or me tomorrow Humanity is dead People makes every thing politics. I don't give a fuck for politics all I care is 49 people died and that's not right. And all what media talks about is politics and hate But no one talks about love and and the memory of these people who died that day It's so disappointing But I guess that's where we stand in this retarded world
Some of the comments here are heartless. I don't understand, but you have to be crazy to make derogatory comments about this. Anderson, I don't know how you got through this video without completely breaking down. Kudos, my friend. I have been having a difficult time of it for the last 3 days. RIP my dear brothers and sisters, RIP.
Thank you very much for speaking about the victims and not the shooter. I have a friend who lost friends in this tragic event and I couldn't picture being in his shoes. I really hope that we learn from this and that we come together as a country. That people are people no matter who they love or who they believe in. I am a married man to a beautiful wife, I have 2 kids. And yet I care about my friend and feel deeply for his loss. Religious beliefs are becoming such a tragic thing to the human race. I don't like to talk bad about religion because it helps a lot of people cope with the day to day stress of life, however when you have people who commit crimes in the name of whatever god they choose it makes me a little bit less hopeful in humanity. Penn Jillette says it best every week on his sunday school podcast during the intro. Preaching love! We need to preach love and we need to realize that we're all in this silly existence together.
Mike Norton The leftist god oboma would say, “this had nothing to do with islam “. Just like the Fort Hood slaughter in 2009. Obummer referred to it as “workplace violence”. Yet the godless liberals love the deceiver 🙄
I Don't Know Any Of The Victims Personally But I Feel Like I've Known Them My Whole Life.My Love, Respect & Support Go Out To Anyone Effected. With Tons Of Love From South Africa x
It's breaks my heart how some evil people disliked this video. CNN remembered those innocent people who lost their lives. What is wrong with you, dislikers ? Rest in peace to all those innocent people and my heart goes out to their families and friends.
I live in Orlando and I remember seeing a small exibit about Pulse in a crime museum. It was so surreal seeing stuff in a museum about something that still seems so recent.
It was actually funny to see the fuss the media made... Good grief, they were just Dems, Libs & Socialists that were executed, so it was no loss at all.
Every single one of them: “They were loving… they were kind.. they made everyone smile and happy.. they loved life… etc.” the gay community celebrates Pride for this exact reason. A community of love and positivity. We must continue to do better.
4 years later. watching this still brings equal amounts of tears to my eyes. i’m astonished at how he could get through this whole list without needing to break.
Anderson, I didn't know how you did it 'cause it took lot of strength to even go through the list. Respect to you and might all the victims rest in peace.
The struggle for this News Reporter to read these names is So deeply Heartbreaking. My thoughts, Prayers and Well Wishes go out to all the Families, Friends and Love ones who lost those they Love. SOME people in this World can be Cruel, Evil and Unforgiving and what they do to others Is Horrific. 😞 💔
Just needed to say I believe in God. And he loved these people. I believe in Christ and he loved the people who mutilated his flesh and pit thorns through his skull. There are conservatives in this comment section who don’t seem to understand what that means. You don’t have to believe in what they believe in but that’s cool. I love you and your life has value to me.
Comatose Since 2010 I agree and am disappointed that the cultural and religious views of the perpetrator that led him to do this have not been discussed due to political correctness.
Yh I dont know why people are saying God hates gays...he loves them as much as anybody else...God hates that we sin he doesn't hate anyone no matter what as a person. just or sinful action even if in the Bible It say homosexuality is a sin in Gods eyes its the same as telling a lie and no one really hates anyone to death for telling a lie...therefore the homosexuals deserves the same, they shouldn't be hated to death...smh...anyone who say God hates homosexuals ain't a real Christian. God would hate that they're sinning daily (just like he would for anyone else) but still love them the same. Humans where not put here to judge others...we all in the same boat.
ahh dont worry, this is all leading up to the hunt to kill and murder all of us who believe in Jesus Christ. we love Jesus, and Jewish people, thats what this is all about. just takes time for them to set the stage and build up enough fake stuff like this to blame on us.
Eight years and this is the first time I’m watching this. I’m in tears. Oh how I miss mi primo/hermano Luis Daniel “Dani” Wilson-Leon. I promise Dani will never be just a name. Thank you, Anderson Cooper and CNN, for using your voice to speak out and continue!
I'm the straightest man in this comment section and I will tell you that it doesn't matter that a majority of these people are gay. They are human just like you and I
This was just hate, hate torwards peopel that only wants to live free and love who they want to love. RIP all this amazing souls. You deserved better than this.
This video was very hard to watch. Thank you for making this video Anderson. I'm so sorry to all the people that were hurt and killed during this tragic time! I also send my condolences to the families that have lost there loved one. Now these amazing people are with our Heavenly Father. God bless everyone!
All these innocent people are dead. They were somebody's child, somebody's relative, somebody's sibling, somebody's loved one, and somebody's friend. It breaks my heart
Don't fall for this, it's a staged event. Anderson Cooper is acting, he ought to be locked up for crimes against humanity. Turn your fucking TV off and think for yourself you programmed fool
Zero content on your channel there Deysy, that's a little suspicious. You wouldn't happen to be a paid government shill, would you? If you're a real person you might want to investigate my claims, and try to realize that the US has made it legal to use propaganda again, so if this is fake, it is perfectly legal. I'm not following anybody dear, and I don't pretend to know everything about the government, but I do a lot of research and the things I have found out are very unsettling. The bad guys are in charge, and they have been for a very long time.
+Plane Joe I'm a very real person, who just doesn't live on UA-cam and media sites/news/social . But I very much have common sense of my own, and know to think for myself. There's things I question, I won't say I don't.. And believe me I've looked into it. There's no way.
Jade The Greatest if you don’t believe it, then please, save it. If they are telling the truth, then that sucks, but if they aren’t, don’t give them more attention
How the hell did he get through this? I was working in Orlando right after the shooting and happened to get an airbnb right around the corner from Pulse. I went there multiple times a week to pay my respects and every single time I went there were people there crying. I cannot imagine the horror those people felt in that moment and I hope that their loved ones are doing ok. Totally unimaginable.
"No one died" ... are you kidding me?!?! I knew one of the victims SMFH that is so disrespectful!! Like I'm not gonna sit here and say this wasn't planned cause I do believe this was a set up.. but the deaths are REAL!
you are a goddamned paid liar. You can usually tell them easily because they want you to ignore what people are saying, and DONT want you to look into it and make up your own mind.. they want you to accept what they say and move on, whereas anyone who doesn't buy it will tell you to LOOK INTO IT YOURSELF, and not to just accept their opinion.. who do you trust more, yourself, or some clown on the internet?
When a person dies, we cry and look up saying why. When many not just die but are killed , we fall and hate ourselves for allowing this world to become what it is , war.... To those who will never be forgotten. Orlando Florida
I am so sick over what has happened ..... Anderson Cooper I hv always adored u and I know how much this has touched your soul being a gay man yourself. I cried seeing the emotion coming from a usually strong man..... I love u all (the world) and no matter gay lesbian trans or bi, love is love and tht community deserves every right that every straight person has and the right to live and love freely.... My prayers are with the victims, their families, the whole lgbtqia community, and the people of Orlando. I'm just so sad😢. Peace and love, - to the whole world🌎 🙏🏽❤️🌈👩❤️👩👨❤️👨 #loveislove
The majority of those people are very young and working people. It's kinda fucked when you mind your own business, work hard then go out to relax a bit and some sick bastard comes along and kills you. None of us really have that in mind when we start our morning, but it can happen. I just don't understand it.
If this be the truth...All sympathy to the dead and the families. I hope this country has not dropped to deceitful standards in order to push an agenda. The story keeps evolving and it just does not make sense. Over 300 ..mostly men and no one charged the shooter even when his gun jammed. Everyone just texting their moms Really......I can't settle that in my mind.
“Life is too short to wake up in the morning with regrets, so love the people who treat you right, forget about the ones who don't, and believe that everything happens for a reason. If you get a chance, take it. If it changes your life, let it. Nobody said life would be easy, they just promised it would be worth it.” ― Harvey MacKay Think about this quote when you think about the Orland shooting. Don't be happy that it happened, just be happy it could lead to a better world with more acceptance and less hate. After this shooting, lots of people are coming out. You should too because life is too short. Spread this message to others to help them and make them realize just how important life is. If you ever feel down and like no one loves you, know that I love you. ~ Zach
Thank you CNN and thank you Anderson Cooper for reading those out I hear your voice and I can listen to your sole speaking. I'm from New Zealand and the events of the 12th of June hit me like a tone of bricks, suddenly I remembered back to my coming out days going to gay bar's was the only place I could relax shake off my fear feel normal in my own skin and not pretending to be someone else, it helped me it saved me. Attacking that bar attacked the safe house for many LBGT people not only affects those In Orlando but around the world, we will stand tall, we will be proud, we will be strong. Orlando I feel your pain, Unite as one and love thy neighbor.
no one deserves to be gunned down and murdered. this is so tragic and my heart and prayers go out to the family and loved ones. Anderson did fantastic, to hear him choke up is echoing how we all feel when innocent lives have been lost.
The horror! i suggest you dont listen to the stories of what happened in there. Please Trust me You dont want to know, im still reeling from them... instead look out for young LGBT kids, help them build a strong emotional base that will help them all thru their lives, do that in our lost peeps names, including the pained GAY shooter. 53 Y/O ORL here. RIP
***** trust me we know too well who this guy was & what his struggle was. claiming him as one of us (gay community) is not cuz of what he did, but the all to familiar journey he was forced to make & how he was so lost during it. That darkest road is littered with countless guys who couldnt deal, we all know guys who self destructed from it, its sad but we all have to admit we live daily with self hate cuz we have been spoon fed in every way possible since day one. You have to make peace with it, not everyone is able ;(
By the way just to speak for my believed religion,since I'm a Catholic freethinker,we portray homosexuality as an offence to the gift of life.But god created us through his magical words,painted his world with his magical brush,filled the canvas with colour.We are the highlighters which bring out the important things in his society.If he made us,scripted our lives,why would he ever take anger in homosexuals. Anyways if it was to anger him why would anger be listed in the 7 deadly sins. They are the thorns among the roses 🌹.They are the ones who stand out among the crowd,the flower is never complete without her thorns. In a nutshell, I'm only to be disappointed by the followers of Christ and Mary to portray the special people as one out of the picture or what they would call *demon spawns*...We are blessed to be born,why take time in your life to make others feel worse?
Thanks for making this video Anderson. Often too much attention is given to the criminals and not the victims. These are our American brothers and sister. Glad to see their names and faces being shared.
HEARTBREAKING....THANK YOU ANDERSON FOR SHOWING EMOTION AND SHOWING US THE FACES AND NAMES OF THOSE PEOPLE KILLED JUST FOR NO REASON......NOW WE KNOW WHO WE PRAY FOR......BEAUTIFUL,TALENTED ,HAPPY PEOPLE THAT WILL BE MISSED.....R I P
I don't know why people think this was a hoax...! You people need to get in touch with those family memebers that really did lose their sons, brothers, cousins. I cant believe what I'm reading here... Bunch of heartless people, why aren't they the ones that died...?? Why???
The way his voice shakes when he mentioned that girl who was only 18...
She would be 23 by now. Suffering through the final exams and pursuing her dreams.
The fact she made it alive outside and went back inside to save her friend just to be dead and her friend survived
2 years have gone by and I still cannot believe how Anderson Cooper was able to do this.
This is what journalism should truly be about
This is August 2019 and I almost lost it with him because he cares that is what I want to see in a reporter.
He is very passionate that's what I like about him.
I was surprised he held it together as well as he did.
Sorrious Sad “haha look at me guys, I’m so edgy. I don’t care about human beings, and it’s a completely foreign concept that others may actually have emotions.”
Sorrious Sad you should seriously question yourself if you feel nothing when you hear about such dramatic events.
watching now and i cant figure out how he did it...i was tearing after 1st minute!
The text Mommy I love you. Hit me so FREAKIN HARD.
😭
"he's coming"
the entire text is sad. he texts his mom 'I'm in the bathroom', and then 'he's coming' and 'I'm gonna die' and then he was murdered.
lol... okay old dude in his mother's basement..
+BONG HIT Is your life sad?
“Mommy I love you” that hurts more than anything
It's so nice of CNN and Anderson Cooper to take all that time to remember these innocent people.
Would've been nicer if they didn't rigg the primaries.
+Ryan unnecessary
+Liseanne27 surprised I havnt heard "should of been at church" more...
+Privately Public Yep. They really went all out on this one. The line between Hollywood and the media is now beyond obscured.
Cooper is a shill. He should never have tried to make this political issue. As they have not even buried the bodies yet...
And where was he when the Liberals damn near beat two Gay guys to death for supporting Trump. Oh yea he was defending the protesters..
So as far as I'm concerned he is a political bigot hack, He only reports shit that makes his liberal party look good. Even if it means Hillary getting elected that wants to disarm everybody.. As if we need more body bags to cover their ideology. Why not it doesn't effect them. They got gated communities and armed guards to protect them!!
Damn Hypocrites. Make me want to scream...
Some people are actually happy that this happened. I just can't wrap my head around the fact that some people are so brainwashed with hate and disgust that they are happy that 50 innocent people died just because they were proud of who they were and wanted to have a good time. I just don't have any words for the people who hate on other people because of something they can't control.
Ella, well said and your words reflect how many, many people feel around the world.
islam
Yea, I don't agree with the homosexual lifestyle but I'd never wish then harm. I pray God has mercy on all these young men and women. The biggest issue I have is with the security measures of the nightclub. The bouncer who fell victim to the shooting was a short woman. She didn't even bare arms. Bouncers should always be big burley men or women...
It's not religious It's evil people who hide under religion to commit crime I don't agree with homosexuality,but it's wrong to harm them cause they re humans like us ,it could be straight pple who might hve died there ,mothers,brothers,sisters,uncle,may they continue to sleep on
👍👍
Can't hold it. Anderson Cooper's voice. Heartbreaking
ik
If you have nothing good to say, just ignore the comments man. You won't do the world any good by bringing up his acting. People are grieving, so pls just go away.
+BONG HIT reported
you stupid twat
Me neither 😭😭😭
It almost sounds like he's tryna hold back tears!
I really think he was. I can only imagine how he was when the camera went off
+carlos non-ya good point! God this is just so crazy
I was thinking the same thing....
Especially with the ones that still were very young :( we're living in such a sick World...
If you mean holding back tears of laughter then yes. 4:15
I swear... the comments on this video are outrageous
***** Yea Ikr... they're bringing religion and all this nonsense in to justify the act. Like seriously they should have respect, not idiotic remarks regarding it
They want attention and are trying to be "edgy" fuckin trolls man
welcome to youtube...
anderson cooper the king of greenscreen
Outrageously logical! why not try to answer these questions?
1. the numerous video footage of crisis actors faking their injuries. One being victim carried, then let stand up on two feet unassisted
2. victims being carried TOWARDS the club instead of to the hospital
3. no ambulances, yet hospital only 6 blocks away
4. the event for that night was unlisted on the club's calendar, yet hundreds attended?
5. The "gunman" chose a gay club TWO HOURS away from his home while there were several closer to his home. what's so special with the Pulse?
Need more critical thinking questions to ask?
Gj to Anderson for having the courage and pride to do this. I never could've kept it together.
+Cumber Batch you need help kid
+Cumber Batch Damn. You conservatives are fucked up. And you wonder why so many people hate Christians.
He's totally right, you're being played for a fool. Do some research and find out who the real enemy is. Hint: you jumped to the conclusion that they were a conservative and a Christian, even though nothing in their statement indicated either. Can't you see you're being manipulated, and that this is just another divide and conquer tactic? They push the agenda of fear and division so hard that you will all split into factions, unwilling to stick up for each other, and then they will pick off each faction one by one, until eventually you will all be wearing shackles. And you're probably so dumb you'll still be blaming conservative Christians.
Ikr. i cried when i heard about it. I always tried to hide my feelings and be this tough guy but... damn it hit me hars
If you're just here to be negative and racist then just leave it's as simple as that. This is obviously a tragedy and nobody needs an attention seeker saying irrelevant things. It's easy to say things behind the screen we know but have some respect because this isn't about you.
So many beautiful faces lost their lives because people can not accept THE TRUTH.Religion is a big a problem in the world and it needs to be banned.You have the right to believe in your God but do it in your house,in your room,in your heart without harming others.Gay people never harmed anyone!!!!
True...religion and government should be separate things
I agree... but religion does not exist for itself. It is wanted and created by people, many people, everywhere in the world from the beginning of time. So I think the real problem is inside men... not religion itself.
Man creates his own reality...
GUNS NEED TO BE BANNED! I love how Americans are all blaming religion and nothing about the fucking guns you don't need just because it's written in your crusty ass constitution. I'm sure the many recent mass shootings had nothing to do with religion, just psychos who had access to killing machines.
Religion has it's problems but lets not deter from the real problem- which is America's gun laws.
I'm sorry idk if you're American but every case I hear about a shooting breaks my heart and do not understand why Americans desparetly need to have guns on them it's rediculous

I'm sorry but you are wrong. Religion is not the problem. Religion is not a person who can go out and buy a gun. Religion is not a person that can go out and kill people. Religion is not someone who can commit such a senseless act of violence. Religion is none of these things, so get that thought out of your mind. The real problem here is guns and those people in society who believe it is okay to senselessly kill others in the name of religion. IN THE NAME OF RELIGION. It's not religion who is killing people, it's people killing other people.
to all the people still heartbroken, don't look in the comments. let the bigots believe their stupid lies because as the world becomes more accepting... they will be the outcasts, not us. stay strong, my lgbt family, stay strong.
I needed to hear this thank you. This year is tough for me
This comment section makes me lose my faith in humanity
Just ignore the assholes, they will be the ones that don't find true happiness or meaning in their lives. Just be the best version of yourself every day and love everyone.
Never mind, they are just young and stupid. Maybe when or if they grow up, they'll understand that love is love, and it doesn't matter gender wise..I am a 60 year old grandma, (straight) and have learned a lot in life.. Love is love, just keep remembering that..
I feel the same way. How they easily gobble up spoon fed lies like nobodies business. When will they learn to not trust their govt.
Same...but the way to fix it is to not give up on spreading love and positivity! ❤❤❤

You should not have faith in humanity. Faith in Jesus Christ is the only faith that saves a lost soul.
Brenda McCool's story made me cry. A loving mom going dancing with her son to support him. And he survived. Can't even begin to imagine the pain he must be in. She survived cancer twice only to be shot down while spending time with her son. Nobody, nobody, nobody should ever have to go through something like that. To all the families/ friends of the victims, we love you. You're not alone.
You will not be forgotten, by your fellow Floridians and the world. R.I.P. Deepest condolences to y'all's families and friends.
4 years.
May you all rest easy, angels.
Y’all can believe this is fake, but the pain in the survivors eyes were rain. 50 lives were lost, and you over here talking about your theories. How would you feel if you or your loved one lost their life and they said it was fake? Not good. Think before you speak😒
Yes there was a video of Amanda one of the victims she recorded the shooting and she was looking confused
you are an idiot.
Brenda Lee Marquez McCool....11 kids,beat the cancer twice...that hurts like hell...imagine
Unreal
I should stop reading these comments
people are so fucked up
before you open your big mouth just think thousand times coz u will suffer one day for the hatred you spread..
out of all the news I've watched on this this is the best
every one makes this political
but it's not
it's about 49 innocent people with their whole life ahead of them
this can happen to any one
so Atleast learn to respect
❤
life is too short and so unpredictable so learn to love
blame another dead bogey man, and believe everything you are told by your lovely uncorruptable representatives you heartless bastards. how very dare you ask questions about this event roadshow
I don't care about conspiracy theories or government propaganda
49 people died and I don't care whether it's because of a act of terrorism or what ever it is...
People should have empathy
Who ever does this it can be you or me tomorrow
Humanity is dead
People makes every thing politics.
I don't give a fuck for politics all I care is
49 people died and that's not right.
And all what media talks about is politics and hate
But no one talks about love and and the memory of these people who died that day
It's so disappointing
But I guess that's where we stand in this retarded world
All you care about is getting paid troll
+Chathura Sandakelum I could agree more :( It's just beyond words
Couldn't have said it better myself. But like you said, these heartless people won't be missed when they're gone. They're like cancer...
Some of the comments here are heartless. I don't understand, but you have to be crazy to make derogatory comments about this. Anderson, I don't know how you got through this video without completely breaking down. Kudos, my friend. I have been having a difficult time of it for the last 3 days. RIP my dear brothers and sisters, RIP.
we all know u want to blow copper
No content troll trolling trolling trolling going fishin for more till I get my limit
he did break down several times. He cried thru all of this. DON'T YOU WATCH CNN?
Same here...very sad times we're living in and the fact that there's not a lot of sympathy for the lives lost is even more tragic
Thank you very much for speaking about the victims and not the shooter. I have a friend who lost friends in this tragic event and I couldn't picture being in his shoes. I really hope that we learn from this and that we come together as a country. That people are people no matter who they love or who they believe in. I am a married man to a beautiful wife, I have 2 kids. And yet I care about my friend and feel deeply for his loss. Religious beliefs are becoming such a tragic thing to the human race. I don't like to talk bad about religion because it helps a lot of people cope with the day to day stress of life, however when you have people who commit crimes in the name of whatever god they choose it makes me a little bit less hopeful in humanity. Penn Jillette says it best every week on his sunday school podcast during the intro. Preaching love! We need to preach love and we need to realize that we're all in this silly existence together.

The leftist god oboma would say, “this had nothing to do with islam “. Just like the Fort Hood slaughter in 2009. Obummer referred to it as “workplace violence”. Yet the godless liberals love the deceiver 🙄
I Don't Know Any Of The Victims Personally But I Feel Like I've Known Them My Whole Life.My Love, Respect & Support Go Out To Anyone Effected. With Tons Of Love From South Africa x
Why? What did happened?
Err
I felt the same💔
When I hear about victims like this I feel the same. Makes me think we all down know each other. And can't wait to see you all on the other side.🥺
I remember one of the guys. He worked at Universal I remember seeing him a lot around Harry Potter. Rest in Peace
The best news anchors are not afraid of being emotional. We need more people like Anderson Cooper. AC you're the best 💜
It's breaks my heart how some evil people disliked this video. CNN remembered those innocent people who lost their lives. What is wrong with you, dislikers ?
Rest in peace to all those innocent people and my heart goes out to their families and friends.
Hate comes with life for gays
donkey
I am crying because they were too young to die
i am crying because they were too happy to die
they were just Dems, Libs & Socialists
@@SylvainSybaris that doesn’t invalidate their lives. They are also people, and if you don’t respect these lives I shall have no remorse for you
All these conspiracy theorist should just stop. So many lives are claimed, pay some respect to the dead and have some fucking decency.
5:58When his voice cracked saying her age, I can't
I live in Orlando and I remember seeing a small exibit about Pulse in a crime museum. It was so surreal seeing stuff in a museum about something that still seems so recent.
It was actually funny to see the fuss the media made... Good grief, they were just Dems, Libs & Socialists that were executed, so it was no loss at all.
RIP to all the souls lost on that awful day.
Every single one of them: “They were loving… they were kind.. they made everyone smile and happy.. they loved life… etc.” the gay community celebrates Pride for this exact reason. A community of love and positivity. We must continue to do better.
You can hear the sadness and devastation im his voice anouncing these people. its so sad.
A huge respect for Anderson Cooper for delivering these devastating news in such an honest and heartfelt way. My condolences to the victim's families.
You could hear the tears in his voice. These are members of not only the gay community but our community
you can tell in his voice how hard this is for him its terrible their are horrible people in this world i cant help feel bad for all their families 😟
Man I cried for him. I am not a very emotional person he ripped my heart trying get through names. I just with and for all concerned.
Thank you CNN
@jeff griffin You regress the gene pool
How can there be disliked on this video? I cried. In loving memory.❤️
My cousin is one of these victims.. he was the best..
I’m so sorry. I’m sure it still hurts as much today as it did 4 years ago. ❤️
@@ajpoloney It does.. thank you so much for your support.
4 years later. watching this still brings equal amounts of tears to my eyes. i’m astonished at how he could get through this whole list without needing to break.
poor Anderson he can barely get though the list of names, what a sad sad day for amarica
@jeff griffin 👎
@jeff griffin suuuuuureee sjw
Anderson, I didn't know how you did it 'cause it took lot of strength to even go through the list. Respect to you and might all the victims rest in peace.
The struggle for this News Reporter to read these names is So deeply Heartbreaking.
My thoughts, Prayers and Well Wishes go out to all the Families, Friends and Love ones who lost those they Love.
SOME people in this World can be Cruel, Evil and Unforgiving and what they do to others Is Horrific. 😞 💔
Just needed to say I believe in God. And he loved these people.
I believe in Christ and he loved the people who mutilated his flesh and pit thorns through his skull.
There are conservatives in this comment section who don’t seem to understand what that means.
You don’t have to believe in what they believe in but that’s cool. I love you and your life has value to me.
God bless your soul❤️
Comatose Since 2010 I agree and am disappointed that the cultural and religious views of the perpetrator that led him to do this have not been discussed due to political correctness.
Yh I dont know why people are saying God hates gays...he loves them as much as anybody else...God hates that we sin he doesn't hate anyone no matter what as a person. just or sinful action even if in the Bible It say homosexuality is a sin in Gods eyes its the same as telling a lie and no one really hates anyone to death for telling a lie...therefore the homosexuals deserves the same, they shouldn't be hated to death...smh...anyone who say God hates homosexuals ain't a real Christian. God would hate that they're sinning daily (just like he would for anyone else) but still love them the same. Humans where not put here to judge others...we all in the same boat.
Rest in peace
RIP to all the victims and my thoughts go out to anyone who was affected and their families.
This is too much. Someone is gonna pay for doing all this. I'll bet you.
what do mexicans have to do with anything?
ahh dont worry, this is all leading up to the hunt to kill and murder all of us who believe in Jesus Christ. we love Jesus, and Jewish people, thats what this is all about. just takes time for them to set the stage and build up enough fake stuff like this to blame on us.
+TJ B Now is not the time for trolls. Please ignore the idiot. Focus on the love so many of us are sending. 💜
+Gal Tab ....you're a moron! I'm glad I was born with a higher IQ than idiots like you!
Muslims are gonna pay. Trump gonna ban all Muslims.
🙏🙏🙏 BIG HUGS
This comment section makes me sick.
Benny's twenty øne Crybabies! At the Discø Truth. Sick sick people.
140 people down voted this, what the f*** is wrong with you.
My tears fall with you Anderson. Beautiful souls that have no idea what happened to their life....
It's incredible to hear the emotion in Anderson's voice
Eight years and this is the first time I’m watching this. I’m in tears. Oh how I miss mi primo/hermano Luis Daniel “Dani” Wilson-Leon. I promise Dani will never be just a name. Thank you, Anderson Cooper and CNN, for using your voice to speak out and continue!
I'm the straightest man in this comment section and I will tell you that it doesn't matter that a majority of these people are gay. They are human just like you and I
This was just hate, hate torwards peopel that only wants to live free and love who they want to love.
RIP all this amazing souls. You deserved better than this.
This video was very hard to watch. Thank you for making this video Anderson. I'm so sorry to all the people that were hurt and killed during this tragic time! I also send my condolences to the families that have lost there loved one. Now these amazing people are with our Heavenly Father. God bless everyone!
god who? If your god won't protect you while you're living he sure won't do it when you're dead !
+SUGAR XYLER Disrespectful
❤❤❤
Thank you Anderson. Never cried so much in my life. You barely held it together.
RIP. It is important to hear their names. A touching and powerful video. Thank u CNN
All these innocent people are dead. They were somebody's child, somebody's relative, somebody's sibling, somebody's loved one, and somebody's friend. It breaks my heart
I can't stop to cry 😭😭😭this is emotional
Only bad people cry over the loss of disgusting Dems, Libs & Socialists.... I actually laughed watching the video.
@@SylvainSybaris Lmao! Come on, dude. That's not nice...
Cooper, is the only one I saw do this. He was very moved by being there. He's a loving and caring man.
Don't fall for this, it's a staged event. Anderson Cooper is acting, he ought to be locked up for crimes against humanity. Turn your fucking TV off and think for yourself you programmed fool
Zero content on your channel there Deysy, that's a little suspicious. You wouldn't happen to be a paid government shill, would you? If you're a real person you might want to investigate my claims, and try to realize that the US has made it legal to use propaganda again, so if this is fake, it is perfectly legal. I'm not following anybody dear, and I don't pretend to know everything about the government, but I do a lot of research and the things I have found out are very unsettling. The bad guys are in charge, and they have been for a very long time.
+Plane Joe I'm a very real person, who just doesn't live on UA-cam and media sites/news/social . But I very much have common sense of my own, and know to think for myself. There's things I question, I won't say I don't.. And believe me I've looked into it. There's no way.
R.I.P all of you we still remember who you were and nobody deserves this.
This is hard to listen to.
Love is love is love is love is love.
Almost 6 years later. I still cry
luis the 3 died he was my cousin noooooooo im really crying
I'm so sorry 😞😞😞😞😞😞😥😥😥😥😥
Lying bitch.
Jade The Greatest if you don’t believe it, then please, save it. If they are telling the truth, then that sucks, but if they aren’t, don’t give them more attention
@@jadethegreatest stfu my cousin was there to
Who dislikes this!!! Shame on you.... Thank you CNN to take the time xxx
SweetBj28 People who think this is a “hoax” disliked this
How the hell did he get through this? I was working in Orlando right after the shooting and happened to get an airbnb right around the corner from Pulse. I went there multiple times a week to pay my respects and every single time I went there were people there crying. I cannot imagine the horror those people felt in that moment and I hope that their loved ones are doing ok. Totally unimaginable.
"No one died" ... are you kidding me?!?! I knew one of the victims SMFH that is so disrespectful!! Like I'm not gonna sit here and say this wasn't planned cause I do believe this was a set up.. but the deaths are REAL!
Annette Gonzalez unfortunately there are crazy people in this world
you are a goddamned paid liar. You can usually tell them easily because they want you to ignore what people are saying, and DONT want you to look into it and make up your own mind.. they want you to accept what they say and move on, whereas anyone who doesn't buy it will tell you to LOOK INTO IT YOURSELF, and not to just accept their opinion.. who do you trust more, yourself, or some clown on the internet?
When a person dies, we cry and look up saying why. When many not just die but are killed , we fall and hate ourselves for allowing this world to become what it is , war.... To those who will never be forgotten. Orlando Florida
The hurt in this mans voice...
Thank you, Anderson for reading the names and ages of the Orlando victims.
I am so sick over what has happened ..... Anderson Cooper I hv always adored u and I know how much this has touched your soul being a gay man yourself. I cried seeing the emotion coming from a usually strong man..... I love u all (the world) and no matter gay lesbian trans or bi, love is love and tht community deserves every right that every straight person has and the right to live and love freely.... My prayers are with the victims, their families, the whole lgbtqia community, and the people of Orlando. I'm just so sad😢. Peace and love, - to the whole world🌎 🙏🏽❤️🌈👩❤️👩👨❤️👨 #loveislove
That was puke-worthy.
Mr Murdoch yesss what if this was ur mom , dad brother or sister killed? Smh- horrible
This is so beautiful yet heartbreaking. I love Andrew Cooper and CCN for doing this tribute!
😢rip loves this made me cry so sad😭 I respect him her said there gorgeous names I know it's hard just gorgeous souls gone to soon
You can hear the giant wave of sadness In his voice as he reads over the names of victims. He's trying so hard not to cry and just keep reporting :(
The majority of those people are very young and working people. It's kinda fucked when you mind your own business, work hard then go out to relax a bit and some sick bastard comes along and kills you. None of us really have that in mind when we start our morning, but it can happen. I just don't understand it.
Anderson is emotional because it hits home with him
I cried throughout this whole video, years later its still so so heartbreaking
4:27 that is just heartbreaking. The things a mother will do for her children..
This was not a hoax. Real people died. Real families are suffering real pain.
Liar
If this be the truth...All sympathy to the dead and the families. I hope this country has not dropped to deceitful standards in order to push an agenda. The story keeps evolving and it just does not make sense. Over 300 ..mostly men and no one charged the shooter even when his gun jammed. Everyone just texting their moms Really......I can't settle that in my mind.
You really think this was fake? People did charge the shooter. They're dead now. This is a mile from my house. It's not fake.
Prayers to you and the community. This incident does not settle well with my spirit or intellect at all for numerous reasons. Jesus we need you now.
Glad to hear someone questioning this.
The whole thing smells to me.
wess emantsal it happened. Y’all just stupid lmaoo
rip to everyone who lost their lives that horrible night breaks my heart you'll all be missed 💔💔💔💔💔
“Life is too short to wake up in the morning with regrets, so love the
people who treat you right, forget about the ones who don't, and believe
that everything happens for a reason. If you get a chance, take it. If
it changes your life, let it. Nobody said life would be easy, they just
promised it would be worth it.”
― Harvey MacKay
Think about this quote when you think about the Orland shooting. Don't be happy that it happened, just be happy it could lead to a better world with more acceptance and less hate. After this shooting, lots of people are coming out. You should too because life is too short. Spread this message to others to help them and make them realize just how important life is.
If you ever feel down and like no one loves you, know that I love you. ~ Zach
this guy is a good actor, pathetic, but good actor.
why is everyone making such a big fucking deal?
This was the biggest mass shooting in the U.S. Why wouldn't it be a big deal?
It is the biggest mass shooting in US history, along with the current controversy regarding gun laws
because they were not just names ... they meant something to their families ... why shouldn't it be a big deal?
how about if u were gone it wouldnt be no big deal huh??u wouldnt like it..so stfu!!!!
Because most people have this little thing called empathy
I am proud of Amderson For doing his best to try and HOLD HIMSELF 2GETHER! HE SHOWED TRUE EMOTIONS ITS GREAT!
My heart goes out to the horrible acting.
Imagine what their acting coaches are going through right now.
I've watched this so many times, and I still cry. I don't know how Anderson kept it together. I love him for doing this. 💗
God bless them and there families . A Senseless crime for humanity
Thank you CNN and thank you Anderson Cooper for reading those out I hear your voice and I can listen to your sole speaking.
I'm from New Zealand and the events of the 12th of June hit me like a tone of bricks, suddenly I remembered back to my coming out days going to gay bar's was the only place I could relax shake off my fear feel normal in my own skin and not pretending to be someone else, it helped me it saved me.
Attacking that bar attacked the safe house for many LBGT people not only affects those In Orlando but around the world, we will stand tall, we will be proud, we will be strong.
Orlando I feel your pain, Unite as one and love thy neighbor.
no one deserves to be gunned down and murdered. this is so tragic and my heart and prayers go out to the family and loved ones. Anderson did fantastic, to hear him choke up is echoing how we all feel when innocent lives have been lost.
The horror! i suggest you dont listen to the stories of what happened in there. Please Trust me You dont want to know, im still reeling from them... instead look out for young LGBT kids, help them build a strong emotional base that will help them all thru their lives, do that in our lost peeps names, including the pained GAY shooter. 53 Y/O ORL here. RIP
Well said
eren luin
when something like this happens we all get desperate for positive perspective, life's meaning / purpose is healing
*****
trust me we know too well who this guy was & what his struggle was. claiming him as one of us (gay community) is not cuz of what he did, but the all to familiar journey he was forced to make & how he was so lost during it.
That darkest road is littered with countless guys who couldnt deal, we all know guys who self destructed from it, its sad but we all have to admit we live daily with self hate cuz we have been spoon fed in every way possible since day one. You have to make peace with it, not everyone is able ;(
u sure do type a lot of nonsense for a hater
By the way just to speak for my believed religion,since I'm a Catholic freethinker,we portray homosexuality as an offence to the gift of life.But god created us through his magical words,painted his world with his magical brush,filled the canvas with colour.We are the highlighters which bring out the important things in his society.If he made us,scripted our lives,why would he ever take anger in homosexuals. Anyways if it was to anger him why would anger be listed in the 7 deadly sins. They are the thorns among the roses 🌹.They are the ones who stand out among the crowd,the flower is never complete without her thorns. In a nutshell, I'm only to be disappointed by the followers of Christ and Mary to portray the special people as one out of the picture or what they would call *demon spawns*...We are blessed to be born,why take time in your life to make others feel worse?
This was a great way of voicing your opinion but not tearing away at people. ❤️
Oowh my God......still remember it at 2019.....its hurted so much, deeply, sadly, badly 😢
Thanks for making this video Anderson. Often too much attention is given to the criminals and not the victims. These are our American brothers and sister. Glad to see their names and faces being shared.
The most disgusting thing about this tragedy is that now it's disappeared. Nothing came of it, and nothing will come of it.
This is really heart breaking 😢😢 💔
RIP

I don't know why people think this was a hoax...! You people need to get in touch with those family memebers that really did lose their sons, brothers, cousins. I cant believe what I'm reading here... Bunch of heartless people, why aren't they the ones that died...?? Why???
