I don't know anything about the looney right wing host-- I don't even really understand what point she's trying to make. But Owen is also being silly here -- he has no grounds for being absolutely certain that homophobia was the modus operandi, or for denying that religion played a role. We just need to be honest about all of this and not pretend he was making sense in his speculation while she was being pathetic. They're both talking through their hats.

      She did agree that is was a homophobic attack as well. I feel that they're exploring other reasons behind the attack for the sake of discussion. Also it's not 100% clear whether the gun nut was homophobic due to religion or not. It's just mentioned that he saw two guys kissing and was repulsed by it. Of course the attack was specifically against the LGBT community but here they are just opening it up for a debate on who is to blame, whether the cause is homophobia brought on by his religion or not, and of course discussing the old lack of gun control.

      Of course the Boston bombing was an attack on Endurance Sport! Just think back to years ago when endurance sport had to literally fight for civil rights! The many years of oppression and hatred towards endurance sport, and even though endurance sport is much more widely tolerated today, there are still those who hold the moronic regressionist idea that endurance sport is wrong and needs to be punished, or at least what constitutes as punishment in their warped reptilian minds. Of course the same also applies to films.

They refused to understand, they wanted to get back to ISIS and religion and guns but refused to talk about homophobia. They would rather talk about the possible abstracts. Rubbish.
      And this has noting to do with Islam. When Christians murder homosexuals in the US their religion is never brought into question and I'm sure they have murdered way more than any Islamic terrorist. But Islam is anti-homosexual so it's bad.

      Anna Bella All other reasons (like access to lethal weapon in US, a poor anger management in some young men, some interpretations of religion that support violence etc) could be discussed after they acknowledged the main point of it all which is homophobia. I agree that tragedies like this one happens for multiple reasons, but it doesn't change the fact that the main and button pushing reason was homophobia. I truly don't understand why these presenters trying so hard to water down the main issue here and pressing to talk about "an attack on people who are having fun". It's not the point. It's insulting to the minority that's under constant threat of attack simply for being themselves.

      East South yes, absolutely it still remains a homophobic act. Especially if said person is suppressing their homosexuality or believe it's a sin. Actually such suppressed homosexual desires are a very common reasons for homophobia. And so far he's been reported to have an account and being a patron to that club, which may as well mean that he was targeting people. In my humble opinion he might have had some inclinations into men. As his father said he got very angry when he saw two men kissing, that's like a big red flag that he's emotional about the subject and suppressed desire usually shows as disgust.

Calling them "mad" is to make excuses for them. Owen was right to walk out.
