A gunman opened fire on Latin Night inside the Orlando Pulse nightclub. A place once known for being a sanctuary for vibrant LGBTQ+ nightlife, celebration, and jubilance turned into a bloodbath. Droves of people from the LGBTQ+ community showed up to help, but were turned away from donating, the Orlando Sentinel reported. An FDA measure banned men who have sex with men from donating blood unless they had been celibate for a year.
