Senator Marco Rubio of Florida, a Republican, said late Sunday morning that the information he had received led him to believe that Pulse had been targeted because it was a gay nightclub.
If this is something inspired by radical ideology, then I think common sense tells you that he targeted the gay community because of the views that exist in the radical Islamic community about the gay community, Mr. Rubio said on CNN, referring to the gunman, whom law enforcement officials have identified as Omar Mateen.
Mr. Rubio, who was a candidate for the Republican presidential nomination, opposes same-sex marriage. On Sunday, he condemned the targeting of gays and lesbians for acts of violence.
