From all quarters, condemnation of Orlando attack
From Bay Ridge to Washington, D.C., leaders of Muslim groups and elected officials from both sides of the political aisle came forward to condemn the horrific attack in Orlando, Florida that left 50 dead early Sunday morning, including gunman Omar Mateen.
Linda Sarsour, executive director of the Arab American Association of New York, posted messages on her Facebook page expressing her shock and anger at the mass shooting in Pulse, a popular gay nightclub in Orlando.
“Please pray for the victims and their families. The words are not flowing. In horror and shock. Please let us know how we can support,” Sarsour wrote Sunday morning.
