To begin with, I disclaim my note upon any religions, groups, specific communities, and even politics. Everything that I pour it out purely from what I think throughout this phenomenon that keeps heating up day by day. alert! you might get it offensive, but it is just my personal opinion to keep me updated from recent news around the world regarding to terrorism as blamed into specific religion or ethnic groups. if it is so, don't continue reading.. lol
I haven't written my blog since long time ago (Approximately more than a year). Until one day, I got a shocking news about domestic terrorism at gay club in Orlando, USA (http://edition.cnn.com/2016/06/12/us/orlando-nightclub-shooting/) that brings me back to the boat where I belong. it is a mourning and devastating news that I hear since way back. From the credible news such as the New York Times and the Washington Post, 50 people were slain in a mass shooting by a 29 years old, cold-blooded man named Omar Mateen who was born in the USA with Afghan decent. Moreover, even though it is not officially stated (it might be in couple days ahead from now on this blog is published), this terror was moved mostly by radicalism and extremism. Again, from the news that I read (http://www.cnbc.com/2016/06/12/domestic-terrorism-leaves-scores-dead-injured-at-orlando-nightclub.html), the man called 911 expressing fealty to ISIS (Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant), yet the authority informs that there is no evidence that he has been contacting ISIS and its board line. Some people believe that this terror is not a jihadist attack, as it is more likely to be said a right-wing crime. Actually, what is right-wing crime? it is an attack driven by non religious ideology and more about the hate of gay community and its activities.

Regardless on what is Omar Mateen's motive of doing this mass shooting at Pulse Night Club, I wonder why should he claim to be a member of ISIS web to 911 during the attack? why should it happen while America is on for presidential election? from my 50 cents, Donald Trump gets a free credit from what he always brings into table during his presidential campaign about Islamophobia, extremest, and radicalism.
Look out at the trend of Donald Trump popularity from his offensive controversial comments about some ethnic, community, and religion. he started from ZERO to HERO:

Then look out at the recent poll between Hillary Clinton (as a president candidate from Democratic Party) and Donald Trump (as a president candidate from Republican Party):
(https://today.yougov.com/news/2016/05/24/yougoveconomist-poll-may-20-23-2016/):
The gap between Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump becomes closer. I (Sadly) predict that Donald Trump popularity will boost up after this massacre in Orlando. He will claim (and he has said on his Twitter) that what he said so far is something that people have to put into count.
What will happen if Donald Trump bites the election in the USA? then Muslims will get suffered the most (along with Mexicans, I guess) for at least 4 years until its next presidential election (it could be less if he was impeached by the US representative due to his lack of capabilities on guiding the USA to become great again as he highlighted during his campaign). The suffer won't be experienced only for local Muslim community in the USA, but it could spread out to every single corner, edge, and block on the street. Why is this so important to come up? As the US president, he can allegedly offensively blame targeted religion and minor community that possibly ruins peace and diversity that have been built for ages around the world. World War III undoubtedly will knock our door. I am afraid that Americans will see Donald Trump as a good captain to keep them safe while forgoing other rights.
From my personal perspective, there is no excuse to shake people's right for living, praying, and even choosing their path life. I, myself. have been living in the biggest Muslim community in the world, Indonesia. The diversity and peace blend into a colorful harmony. As a Indonesian with Chinese decent and Christian (I am not too religious though), I could say that I mostly can do my activities without being bothered by the majority. Am I being discriminated? Nope! it has been alright. However, some people sometimes irritate me through their comments e.q I am Kafir/Unbeliever (https://www.politicalislam.com/kafir/) which I have no place in Heaven. Do I do care? Nope! Who are we to judge?
To warp up, I can see this heated phenomenon can burst out if people don't stick together. Don't let issues easily burn the friendship, loyalty, and peacefulness. I know these days are the hardest days for Muslim around the world to cleanse their dignity. Indeed, they need an extra mile to change Islamophobia's perspective. I get your back. ^^
Please no more crime, attack, and terror on be half of anything.
