An LGBT Group Supposedly Endorsed Donald Trump on Orlando Incident
Listen to this article

A mass shooting incident occurred on 12th June 2016 at the Orlando (gay) Nightclub and a number of national high-profile figures issued their comments. These comments includes tweet by the Republican candidate for the U.S Presidential Election 2016 Donald Trump. This incident enclosed a number of social and demographic issues including the LGBT (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender), Latino and Muslim communities. A number of communities and groups issued their comments regarding attack. most of the viewers noticed immediately that the Twitter account used the word LBGT instead of using LGBT. Some of them also noticed the supposed different change by using lowercase “i” instead of using lowercase “l”.

It was not confirmed that the tweet was sent by the account “LBGT Phoenix”, not by “IGBT Phoenix” because Twitter is unable to differentiate the upper and lower case due to the lack of case sensitivity. It is important that none of these accounts tweeted prior to the incident of Orlando Nightclub or before 12th June 2016. The consequent tweets sent by those accounts were recommended Donald Trump and criticized Hillary Clinton by discussing the impact of this tragedy on the entire gay communities. The Gateway Pundit updated its post that the accounts were basically created on the day of Orlando shooting incident and it was not confirmed that these accounts are affiliated with any group of LGBT. Both tweets were immediately cleared on most of the social platforms such as Quora, due to the age of those accounts and spelling mistakes.
