Suspect in custody after deadly mass shooting at LGBTQ nightclub in Colorado Springs

A 22-year-old gunman opened fire in a gay nightclub in Colorado Springs, killing five people and leaving more than two dozen injured before he was subdued by "heroic" patrons and arrested by police who were on the scene within minutes, authorities said Sunday.

The violence is the sixth mass killing this month and comes in a year when the nation was shaken by the deaths of 21 in a school shooting in Uvalde, Texas.

This is terrible that someone can have access to a gun and just walk into a place and open fire and do so much damage. The motive isn’t clear but it’s speculated that the club was targeted because it’s a LGBTQ2s+ nightclub.

My thoughts go out to all the people that lost loved ones last night.

What are your thoughts?

@PEACH4LIFE it’s really terrible. I guess I don’t understand the right to have a gun because I am Canadian but more people are dead and for what?

@iamonfire696 unfortunately it's a never-ending battle in the United States. My husband have alot of guns (all kinds) and I have one just for protection. I wouldn't dare use it unless I'd need to. At this point I don't think there's a cure for us because no matter what the guns will always end up in the wrong hands. It's just sad but there's nothing that can be done about it.

@PEACH4LIFE I can’t even imagine. I have never owned a gun or thought to even buy one. I am sorry things are only getting worse 😢.
