US President Joe Biden on Sunday said that the US” can not and mustn’t tolerate hate,” hours after at least five people were killed and 18 injured in a mass firing at an LGBTQ café in Colorado.We must drive out the injuries that contribute to violence against LGBTQI people,” Biden said in a statement.” We can not and mustn’t tolerate hate.”

He was speaking after a marksman opened fire inside an LGBTQ café in Colorado SpringsIn a statement on Twitter Joe Biden said” We must address the public health epidemic of gun violence in all forms. I inked the most significant gun safety law in nearly three decades, but we must do further.”

Places that are supposed to be safe spaces of acceptance and festivity should noway be turned into places of terror and violence. Yet it happens far too frequently. We must drive out the injuries that contribute to violence against LGBTQI people,” he said in a statement from the White HouseJill and I are soliciting for the families of the five people killed in Colorado Springs, and for those injured in this senseless attack. While no motive in this attack is yet clear, we know that gun violence has a particular impact on LGBTQI communities across our nation,” twittered Biden.

The police said” heroic” clubgoers fought and stopped a marksman shortly after he opened fire.At least two people inside the club brazened and fought the marksman and averted further violence, said Colorado Springs Police Chief Adrian Vasquez.” We owe them a great debt of thanks,” he said.

Police linked the suspect as Anderson Lee Aldrich, a 22- time-old man, who shot at patrons with a long rifle, a important armament that can induce ruinous injuries.He was taken into police guardianship shortly after the firing began and was being treated for injuries, according to officers.

The violence lasted just twinkles. Police entered multitudinous 911 calls starting at 1156 pm, officers were dispatched at 1157 pm, an officer arrived at night and the suspect was detained at 1202 am, police said.A aggregate of 39 command officers responded, police said, and Fire Department Captain Mike Smaldino said 11 ambulances went to the scene, reported CNN.

Colorado Governor Jared Polis, who in 2018 came the first openly gay man in the country to be tagged as a governor, confided the” stalwart individualities who blocked the marksman” in a statement released on Twitter in which he called the firing” terrible, sickening, and ruinous.”The firing position is evocative of the 2016 attack at an LGBTQ café in Orlando, Florida, where a marksman who pledged constancy to the Islamic State killed 49 people and wounded at least 53.

Colorado has been the point of some of the most heinous mass blowups in US history, including the 1999 firing in Columbine High School and the 2012 movie theatre firing in sunup, reported CNN.In a statement on social media, Club Q said it was” devastated by the senseless attack on our community” and thanked” the quick responses of heroic guests that subdued the marksman and ended this hate attack.”

Club Q posted before that its Saturday night lineup would feature a punk and indispensable show at 9p.m. followed by a cotillion party at 11.The club also planned to hold a drag brunch and a drag show on Sunday for Transgender Day of Remembrance. The club’s website now says it’ll be closed until farther notice, reported CNN.
