Davon Grant wdym?? Details are a significant part of explaining events. Why wouldnt u wanna know how she felt or what she saw while all of this was happening. The event itself wasnt simple so how could u ever make it seem that way?
The comments saying that she is acting are disgusting. She isn’t showing much emotion in this video and seeming like she didn’t even experience this because she is still in shock. Trauma does funny things to you. I don’t think she still has really realized fully what’s happened. Her whole life shattered, a friend dead. That doesn’t go away soon. Even 2 years later you can still be in shock.
That's like with the shooters of the Columbine Massacre. I heard they hoped someone would make a movie based of it. I hope that never happens. They don't deserve to even have their names remembered.
Jennifer Fields same. They do not deserve the recognition and as a meme bee of the public it’s not like we need to know they’re names. They should only give it to the family’s effected IF they want to know.

Mø Nälayé, I understand and appreciate you explaining to the top comment, but they didn’t say “well-spoken for a black woman”. I myself hate it when others compare a trait to me being a black woman (thus saying it’s unlikely for a black woman to have that certain trait). I think the original comment was leaning towards “well-spoken on the traumatic event they experienced not too long ago”. With that being said, I feel that we should be able to be complimented as a person, as long as there aren’t any mentions of racist stereotypes in that compliment.
@Mø Nälayé Im sure that wasnt their motive, she is extremely well spoken, we can hear how she speaks, I highly doubt they were referring to her being well spoken 'for a black person' she is just very well spoken , regardless of her race . I think that saying 'saying a black person is 'well spoken' is condescending' is condescending in itself , especially in this context, when Im highly confident they were talking about how calm and well spoken she is while talking about such a tragic event. Im a young black girl and I dont really think this comment was necessary in response especially to that comment.
@@missccarr89 I agree. I've been watching Anderson since my school days of watching Channel 1 every morning. He doesn't break very often but when he does you can guarantee it's a gut-wrenching scene he's seeing or reporting on.
It hurts so much. It didn't even happen to me and I can feel her pain radiating through the screen. It must be such a horrendous and devastating experience and I feel for every person and their families effected by this. As a person that's lgbt+ I'm afraid. As a human I'm afraid. But we all have to support one another through these scary times. I'm lucky that in my country, nothing like this has happened for a very long time and I hope we can reach a point where nothing like this happened to anybody in any country.
Exactly. And homophobes have the audacity to say we’re the bad ones..i just,can’t. You know what,It’s not even that. It’s about someone,ANYONE,DECIDED TO DO THIS,TO INNOCENT PEOPLE. It makes me sick,especially to us minority’s. Like..why? Just why?
The fact that an American citizen can sit there, mourn over these tragic events and still sit there and say they don't need gun control or better legislation. You can't have Kinder Surprise eggs because it's kills children when they choke and it's a hazard. Yet, anyone can walk into purchase a gun and kill a school full of children and be perfectly okay with that freedom. My dads a hunter, I grew up around guns all my life and even he agrees that tightening things is worth it. He still gets his guns, and others get to be safer.
the NRA blocks gun violence research because it makes them look bad. sad to say, but after a bunch of children died in sandy hook and nothing changed, i’m not sure anything will make a change
I remember waking up the morning after and seeing the pure horror on my brothers face when her picture was showed on our local news station she was an intern with my brother at a news station in philly
I’m a black international student planning on going to the US for uni this Fall and watching this honestly fills me with so much terror about going to the states
I’m so sorry.💕 I wish there was something I could say to make you feel less anxious, but I’m really not sure what to say. I live the in U.S. and I’m hoping you have an the best experience possible while you’re here.🥰

United States is safe most of the time. (At least safer than other countries like my own Brazil)
@Reece Walker okay?? god can't bless her because she's not christian or something?? they said nothing about everyone being christian. all they did was say they wanted god to bless her, as in they hope the best for her.
Because they were adults in the clear, and everyone kept pestering the hospital to know what happened. So I'm sure the doctors asked if they were comfortable speaking directly to press about it.
It’s better to show the victims perspectives or the whole situation will just be forgotten and no one will realize the pains that some people face like for example myself I didn’t even hear about his until I watched the video we are so ignorant so it’s better to talk about then go quiet
I think that the fact that you are allowed to legally own a machine gun is horrible. So much less lives would have been taken if he was only allowed to use a hand gun.
I want to know how many views this got prior to the TH-cam algorithm putting it upfront 2 years later. This brave girl probably didn’t think her story deserved a wide audience until now. Thank you for telling your story, keep strong!
It’s Disgusting To know, That people say that she is an “actor”. After All she Went threw..We should all Support her. She lost her friend, A part of her life. Wth people.
Sweetheart your pain is so real. Not just physically but mentally. I am so incredibly sorry this happened to you and your friends. I pray for a day when we can live our daily lives without fear of these mass shootings. God bless you and all who were affected. Toledo, Oh stands with you
Gwendolyn Gamboa well one reason someone may dislike is because it was too sensitive for them to watch, dislikes don’t always mean that they didnt like the video, it’s may also mean that the content was too sensitive for others. You always have to remember that it’s their choice and no one should be called names ( and I know you didn’t call anyone names but I’m just saying) or degraded(I know you didn’t degrade either but I’ve seen it) for having their own opinion because you may not know what it means. They also may have taken offense to something in the video( I don’t know what they would take offense to but that’s their personal opinion and feelings) too. Just keep these things in mind.
I remember that I was in Berlin, Germany when this happened. Just in front of the Brandenburg gate people were putting flowers, candles and pride flags to show their support to what had happened at pulse.
for me,as a foreigner, i find this kind of stuff unreal and still cant comprehend this was real and this kind of stuff happen in real life. just hope USA will solved this guns issue sooner cause is already too late.
@@guesswho9791 Well lawless pple will have guns illegally anyway so why take it away frm law abiding citizens who cud use it to protect themselves..who cud be at gun point in their own homes.
When I found out my sister passed away i was so much in shock. I didn’t cry until about two hours in. I was consoling everyone and making sure everyone was comforted and then someone just gave me a look and I bursted into tears. Even when I talk about it now and it’s only been almost two years I talk calmly. Even joke sometimes but late at night I cry about it. It’s not nearly as bad as what this woman went through but you cannot judge someone by how calm they talk about a situation.
Patience and Akyra were so brave for going back inside to find their friend. Patience is so brave for sharing her story. R.I.P to all the victims - you are never forgotten.
Even though the horrific situation was terrible this video, this woman, and survivors of mass shootings are beautiful people. I hope they all find peace
As I watch this, tears stream down my face. I can’t even imagine.. I just declare healing over everything that has happened with any of the shootings in Florida. Very devastating. How hurt do you have to be yourself to take so many lives? RIP to all the victims. Prayers for all the loved ones who lost a little joy.
Then you are under heavy mind control. In a tiny club like that rat trap, at no time would running into an enclosed bathroom be the choice when there are exits all over the place for safety.
The trauma that she lives everyday...I can’t even imagine. Shame on people calling her an “actress,” you have no idea what this woman saw and how it impacts her in her day to day. May she experience love and understanding every day.
shame on paid trolls trying to manipulate the gullible by using dozens of sock puppet accounts in a sad attempt to control people with fake "social shaming".
This girl and Akyra ran back in to save their friend Tyara... and Akyra didn’t make it back out.... instead she died on top of her friend. These women are brave, all of these people are strong and worthy, and I am so disgusted and appalled by this man’s decision to take life and death in his own hands. I appreciate Akyra, and I lift her up because had she not been there in front of her friend... maybe it would’ve been Tyara’s name on the list. This is friendship, this is love, this is the ultimate sacrifice and she is an amazing young woman for that. May these people never be forgotten and may this live in everyone’s memory for eternity.
For anyone saying she's acting,you need help. She's still in shock. It's not easy seeing your loved ones dying. I'm honestly disgusted by those saying she's acting or not showing how sad she is. Trauma is a real thing and she's clearly still in pain I hope she's doing better now. I'm praying for all the survivors and all those coping with the deaths of loved ones❤
I got 1 min in and I can’t. This is traumatic for me to watch but I can’t even image how traumatic this was for her! My heart is with you sis ❤️ hopefully I can gain the courage to watch the rest of this.
I remember that he was in communication with the media & police through out and he was saying he had put explosives on the hostages. I'm sure SWAT did the best they could to coordinate his take down and prevent even greater deaths.
It was a hostage situation. They cant just burst in there they had to negotiate cuz the person who captured them could kill them all with literally a flick of a finger.
I can’t even imagine the guilt she must feel to tell her friend to go back inside when they’re safe and then she dies🖤 god rest her soul and bless the other 2 girls
Idk how people think she’s acting .... I don’t see any act in this. You can see the exhaustion in her face and hear it in her voice. She’s tired. I understand that pain. I’d like to remind people , usually the people who are crying the loudest and making the most fuss are the ones that are acting.
Thanks 🙏🏾 for sharing your story Patience Carter, what shocked me was when you said ppl were thinking ur story is a lie, like NO WAY, why on earth would someone think she’s making this up, yet she witnessed it in person, and so on I still bare the thoughts of Orlando in my heart 💓
This 100% happened my co worker Luis was killed. We worked at universal together. It still hurts. The city still hurts. But remember love will always win. We need more love nowadays
my heart breaks for this girl. i’m only two minutes in, and it’s so sad that she feels guilty for being a survivor. baby it’s not your fault, you’re lucky to have survived and that’s a beautiful thing. embrace it :( it isn’t your fault and isn’t your job to feel guilty
Patience, thank you for sharing your story - I cannot fathom the strength you have to relive that day in order to educate us all. You are so extraordinarily brave. I pray that you continue to find peace. RIP to all those who lost their lives that day, such an immense tragedy
Un amigo mio murió ese día y yo no puedo dejar de pensar en el... me dolió mucho su muerte y le pido a Dios fortaleza para los familiares y los sobrevivientes.. Rodolfo Ayala Ayala siempre estaras en mi corazon. Gran amigo nunca olvidare todo lo que hiciste por mi.😪
Honestly because they don’t have gun control it makes me terrified or scared to be living in america I wish I was living in australia or canada just somewhere thats much safer than america
My love goes out to her. She has so much strength to tell her story. There’s a lot of people who don’t believe her. A lot of people don’t think it’s right she’s telling her story, Reliving her story, But talking about it helps HEAL! Talking about my experience at Route 91 has helped me heal. Sending you my support and love girl !
@saimah patel Well, it's true, wether you believe it or not. And just because he was highly religious doesn't mean that he understood the teachings and lessons in the Qur'an. He might have been mentally ill. That's why he did such a horrible thing. No person right in the head does that. This was because he was not a good person, not because your religion isn't good.
For me at least I still morn pulse it’s terrible and I still can’t believe that this happened 😭 rip 49 your souls live on and we love you and to all the survivors your so strong
Started watching through this quickly but its evident this will take proper watching, im gonna save this until later and give the girl the focus she deserves
I feel guilt for being alive because I’m a nurse and watch people suffer everyday. Thus, I have severe depression and wish I could die by giving my organs to people that don’t have depression & don’t have to see trauma everyday & want to live & have reasons to live and people that love them. I hope this girl mentally survives
Reagan Sanderson thank you!! Let’s hope this young girl stays mentally strong!! Thank you!! As nurses we really have no one to go to when we have mental distress. Thank you for being kind!
It takes a special someone to go back in for a friend. So brave, so strong, so incredible. I hope she truly has found her happiness and peace once again. And rest in peace to everyone who lost their lives that night.
All of you are wrong. TH-cam didn't "pick this up late" It's reshowing it. Probably trying too remind people that this needs to be talked about. It's not a mistake
To be grieving for a dead loved one, to be feeling guilt for having survived, to be feeling afraid every night without sleeping, to lose the sense of security that something like this could happen, to be feeling the pain of gunshot wounds in your legs, and _then_ to feel the anger and frustration that people are calling you a fraud. I can’t imagine what that must feel like
The fact that people think she’s acting disgusts me
It disgusts me that you think she’s acting
Ikr like how can you deny someone’s experience
Mc. zuse who? Vivian wasn’t saying she was acting whatsoever.
Mc. zuse I think you read the comment wrong. Don't worry I did too but I caught myself
wow that’s so disrespectful :( what a way to invalidate someone’s trauma

It hurts so much. It didn't even happen to me and I can feel her pain radiating through the screen. It must be such a horrendous and devastating experience and I feel for every person and their families effected by this. As a person that's lgbt+ I'm afraid. As a human I'm afraid. But we all have to support one another through these scary times. I'm lucky that in my country, nothing like this has happened for a very long time and I hope we can reach a point where nothing like this happened to anybody in any country.
Calvin McLaughlin my thoughts exactly, I can't believe anyone would do this
Same, nobody deserves to see and experience what all of the people did that day.. its so sad.. so many lifes are ruined ...
honestly same ):
Exactly. And homophobes have the audacity to say we’re the bad ones..i just,can’t. You know what,It’s not even that. It’s about someone,ANYONE,DECIDED TO DO THIS,TO INNOCENT PEOPLE. It makes me sick,especially to us minority’s. Like..why? Just why?
hah! A bit over the top there pal, you arent getting paid by the word.
The fact that an American citizen can sit there, mourn over these tragic events and still sit there and say they don't need gun control or better legislation. You can't have Kinder Surprise eggs because it's kills children when they choke and it's a hazard. Yet, anyone can walk into purchase a gun and kill a school full of children and be perfectly okay with that freedom. My dads a hunter, I grew up around guns all my life and even he agrees that tightening things is worth it. He still gets his guns, and others get to be safer.
Yeeeessss
the NRA blocks gun violence research because it makes them look bad. sad to say, but after a bunch of children died in sandy hook and nothing changed, i’m not sure anything will make a change
Because people will lose a lot of money if guns were banned. America’s government only cares about money.
Mø Nälayé that’s blatantly racist and I find you disgusting.
@@hyosomoo1437 but if anything if people pay for proper licensing, they could possibly get more money.
She is brave to share her experience, her control by not crying while recounting is amazing, I was crying this whole video
The fact that she was with another family and not her own must be a parents worst fear knowing they weren’t there to help. 💔
This girl ran back into a building for her friend. Now that, that is bravery.
I remember waking up the morning after and seeing the pure horror on my brothers face when her picture was showed on our local news station she was an intern with my brother at a news station in philly
Laura Elena 😩😰
wow. that must have been unreal
she’s not acting.
get over it.
period.
🗣🗣🗣❤️
and again
The amount of dislikes is Disgusting
sometimes people dislike in order to show that they dislike what has happened, ive seen it happen before, it’s not necessarily hate
Katt H - Good point
No it's based on the dislike to like ratio.Everytime someone dislikes 3 bots dislike.
They're all gone now
I’m a black international student planning on going to the US for uni this Fall and watching this honestly fills me with so much terror about going to the states
I’m so sorry.💕 I wish there was something I could say to make you feel less anxious, but I’m really not sure what to say. I live the in U.S. and I’m hoping you have an the best experience possible while you’re here.🥰
United States is safe most of the time. (At least safer than other countries like my own Brazil)
BRASIL NA AMÉRICA I agree it depends on the area a little (just like it does anywhere). I live in a very safe part of the U.S.
Your chances of dying as a pedestrian or a rider in a car or plane are much higher
then dont go
So young and innocent sweet . There’s a purity to her story just like an innocence. She’s such a sweet lady.
Wat happened
how she was shaking while talking, God please bless her.
@Reece Walker seriously I get that not everyone believes in god but she was leaving a nice comment on a sad video leave her alone
@Reece Walker okay?? god can't bless her because she's not christian or something?? they said nothing about everyone being christian. all they did was say they wanted god to bless her, as in they hope the best for her.
Reece Walker get a life 😌💞
Why did they pull them in like that to do a press conference?! Just weird.
Ria Lequay idk. Because people want to know.but it’s selfish
They agreed to it
Because they were adults in the clear, and everyone kept pestering the hospital to know what happened. So I'm sure the doctors asked if they were comfortable speaking directly to press about it.
Yea weird af
It’s better to show the victims perspectives or the whole situation will just be forgotten and no one will realize the pains that some people face like for example myself I didn’t even hear about his until I watched the video we are so ignorant so it’s better to talk about then go quiet
I think that the fact that you are allowed to legally own a machine gun is horrible. So much less lives would have been taken if he was only allowed to use a hand gun.
Exactly unless your fighting in a war they should be banned
Exactly! What regular person needs a machine gun.
Good luck convincing skitzo Republicans of this obvious fact
She is so strong. I'm so sorry that her friend passed away. So heartbreaking
You could walk by any person and never know their past.
I couldn’t stop crying this entire video. There’s so much hate in this world. I pray our love overshadows it all.
"balogna"
I want to know how many views this got prior to the TH-cam algorithm putting it upfront 2 years later. This brave girl probably didn’t think her story deserved a wide audience until now. Thank you for telling your story, keep strong!
It’s Disgusting To know, That people say that she is an “actor”. After All she Went threw..We should all Support her. She lost her friend, A part of her life. Wth people.
heh
Sweetheart your pain is so real. Not just physically but mentally. I am so incredibly sorry this happened to you and your friends. I pray for a day when we can live our daily lives without fear of these mass shootings. God bless you and all who were affected. Toledo, Oh stands with you
I agree but physically too
no its bad acting
y’all clearly don’t understand how trauma survivors react when talking about their experience. this is not acting.
How does someone dislike this video?? That’s harsh.
STAN KIM YO-JONG Awwwww just because you don’t have a life doesn’t mean that you should ruin theirs. They’re stronger than you will ever be
STAN KIM YO-JONG Oh no, it’s another kpop stan 🤦🏻♀️
Kate F that person not K-Pop related
@@_blank-_ you........is sickening.....
Gwendolyn Gamboa well one reason someone may dislike is because it was too sensitive for them to watch, dislikes don’t always mean that they didnt like the video, it’s may also mean that the content was too sensitive for others. You always have to remember that it’s their choice and no one should be called names ( and I know you didn’t call anyone names but I’m just saying) or degraded(I know you didn’t degrade either but I’ve seen it) for having their own opinion because you may not know what it means. They also may have taken offense to something in the video( I don’t know what they would take offense to but that’s their personal opinion and feelings) too. Just keep these things in mind.
I remember that I was in Berlin, Germany when this happened. Just in front of the Brandenburg gate people were putting flowers, candles and pride flags to show their support to what had happened at pulse.
thats embarrassing.
for me,as a foreigner, i find this kind of stuff unreal and still cant comprehend this was real and this kind of stuff happen in real life. just hope USA will solved this guns issue sooner cause is already too late.
@@shelbyb.1529 I feel like if they've got a gun or weapon they'll use it. Laws dont scare them, I feel like solving the gun issue would help
sketchbookmyday _3647 can’t shoot a gun if you don’t have one, right?
@@guesswho9791 Well lawless pple will have guns illegally anyway so why take it away frm law abiding citizens who cud use it to protect themselves..who cud be at gun point in their own homes.
Varte Hmangaihi if you actually look at the stats in countries with stricter gun laws, it does prevent such frequent mass shootings.
Mkayla Gomez, I agree
She’s a real friend. She went back into a SHOOTING to get her friend. 😔💕
When I found out my sister passed away i was so much in shock. I didn’t cry until about two hours in. I was consoling everyone and making sure everyone was comforted and then someone just gave me a look and I bursted into tears. Even when I talk about it now and it’s only been almost two years I talk calmly. Even joke sometimes but late at night I cry about it. It’s not nearly as bad as what this woman went through but you cannot judge someone by how calm they talk about a situation.
Erica Zuniga I’m so sorry about your sister. Prayers to you and your family and everyone who passed away this night.
I'm so sorry for your loss, you're a great person and I hope it gets easier as life goes on.
Patience and Akyra were so brave for going back inside to find their friend. Patience is so brave for sharing her story. R.I.P to all the victims - you are never forgotten.
Even though the horrific situation was terrible this video, this woman, and survivors of mass shootings are beautiful people. I hope they all find peace
Rest easy for everyone that passed away 😔❤️🙏🏼
🙏=high five
Annabelle's Pet's it can mean both but I meant it in a prayer way 🙄
Łêäh 123 it really doesn't.but I get what you mean
@@_blank-_ Who is that?
Rebecca T The killer who murdered those innocent people
As I watch this, tears stream down my face. I can’t even imagine.. I just declare healing over everything that has happened with any of the shootings in Florida. Very devastating. How hurt do you have to be yourself to take so many lives? RIP to all the victims. Prayers for all the loved ones who lost a little joy.
Then you are under heavy mind control. In a tiny club like that rat trap, at no time would running into an enclosed bathroom be the choice when there are exits all over the place for safety.
oh stop. you idiots keep repeating this script.
The trauma that she lives everyday...I can’t even imagine. Shame on people calling her an “actress,” you have no idea what this woman saw and how it impacts her in her day to day. May she experience love and understanding every day.
shame on paid trolls trying to manipulate the gullible by using dozens of sock puppet accounts in a sad attempt to control people with fake "social shaming".
The Dr holding onto her arm during press conference is Angel sweet man !
This girl and Akyra ran back in to save their friend Tyara... and Akyra didn’t make it back out.... instead she died on top of her friend. These women are brave, all of these people are strong and worthy, and I am so disgusted and appalled by this man’s decision to take life and death in his own hands. I appreciate Akyra, and I lift her up because had she not been there in front of her friend... maybe it would’ve been Tyara’s name on the list. This is friendship, this is love, this is the ultimate sacrifice and she is an amazing young woman for that. May these people never be forgotten and may this live in everyone’s memory for eternity.
How can anyone dislike this? I can’t understand how people can’t realize how much pain this was.....:(
For anyone saying she's acting,you need help. She's still in shock. It's not easy seeing your loved ones dying. I'm honestly disgusted by those saying she's acting or not showing how sad she is. Trauma is a real thing and she's clearly still in pain
I hope she's doing better now. I'm praying for all the survivors and all those coping with the deaths of loved ones❤
My high school did a original play over the pulse shooting and it was very emotional but portrayed it very well it was called “6.12.16.49…”
Where can I watch it
Mara Loly •France it was a high school play
What's the significance of those numbers?
Champion Holloway my school used to record plays and sell or put it on TH-cam
Mara Loly •France that’s interesting I have never heard of that. Do u know how many got sold
this is so devastating , i’m so sorry that people have to go through this pain.
I got 1 min in and I can’t. This is traumatic for me to watch but I can’t even image how traumatic this was for her! My heart is with you sis ❤️ hopefully I can gain the courage to watch the rest of this.
blah blah
3 hours is far too long. are u kidding me. they should have been there is 20 min tops.
It was because of the bomb threat and they probably had to approach the situation safely.
I had no clue it took 3 hours until now omg... :(
I remember that he was in communication with the media & police through out and he was saying he had put explosives on the hostages. I'm sure SWAT did the best they could to coordinate his take down and prevent even greater deaths.
It was a hostage situation. They cant just burst in there they had to negotiate cuz the person who captured them could kill them all with literally a flick of a finger.
@ wow i didnt know that, thank you for letting me know.
The fact that we’re seeing this in 2020 2 years late. What’s going on?😔
Scary.
Ariella Glass ye true
elections, also she is trying to sell her book
I can’t even imagine the guilt she must feel to tell her friend to go back inside when they’re safe and then she dies🖤 god rest her soul and bless the other 2 girls
then dont try. its just social engineering crap
Wow Akira was outside & they went back in ☹️
This is so powerful, everyone should be watching this!
Idk how people think she’s acting .... I don’t see any act in this. You can see the exhaustion in her face and hear it in her voice. She’s tired. I understand that pain. I’d like to remind people , usually the people who are crying the loudest and making the most fuss are the ones that are acting.
Thanks 🙏🏾 for sharing your story Patience Carter, what shocked me was when you said ppl were thinking ur story is a lie, like NO WAY, why on earth would someone think she’s making this up, yet she witnessed it in person, and so on I still bare the thoughts of Orlando in my heart 💓
wow, excellent proof that it was real. Because your brain cant handle it. Okey dokey.
She is one strong woman. Wow. I'm speechless.
This 100% happened my co worker Luis was killed. We worked at universal together. It still hurts. The city still hurts. But remember love will always win. We need more love nowadays
I'm sorry for your loss. Put love out into the world, be the change you wanna see.
🙏🙏🙏
my heart breaks for this girl. i’m only two minutes in, and it’s so sad that she feels guilty for being a survivor. baby it’s not your fault, you’re lucky to have survived and that’s a beautiful thing. embrace it :( it isn’t your fault and isn’t your job to feel guilty
The look she gave at 1:50 is just heartbreaking, man. You can see the sadness, the trauma, and the guilt she's feeling. Don't be guilty, girl!
You can hear the pain and heartbreak in that reports voice when he spoke about Acuria🥺
that’s what really broke me💔
That's Anderson Cooper. He's one of the good ones.
I know right, really felt that 🙁
@@thecutestofborg5604 but some just don't see that in him because of the people he criticizes
Patience, thank you for sharing your story - I cannot fathom the strength you have to relive that day in order to educate us all. You are so extraordinarily brave. I pray that you continue to find peace. RIP to all those who lost their lives that day, such an immense tragedy
God Bless her. I’m so proud that she is speaking her story publicly. We have to do something to stop the hate & violence.
I don’t think anyone has said anything about how 3 hours is a short period of time, but it’s 3 HOURS!
Un amigo mio murió ese día y yo no puedo dejar de pensar en el... me dolió mucho su muerte y le pido a Dios fortaleza para los familiares y los sobrevivientes.. Rodolfo Ayala Ayala siempre estaras en mi corazon. Gran amigo nunca olvidare todo lo que hiciste por mi.😪
Honestly because they don’t have gun control it makes me terrified or scared to be living in america I wish I was living in australia or canada just somewhere thats much safer than america
This woman is so strong for going through her trauma again
Me trying to find hate comments: 👁👄👁
The fact that people even kill other human beings is just vile and disgusting! 🤭
With the craziness of 2020 I completely forgot this happened. It horrible. This is a tragedy that should never be forgotten. I’m so sorry
I seriously don’t understand how I could have forgotten this
To think of the amount of people who've past by this woman of steel not knowing her story..
It’s not a foolish game.
It’s lives you’ve taken away
You’re so brave. Chills.
I stand with you and I am so honored that I got to hear your story. Thank you so much for sharing.
My love goes out to her. She has so much strength to tell her story. There’s a lot of people who don’t believe her. A lot of people don’t think it’s right she’s telling her story, Reliving her story, But talking about it helps HEAL! Talking about my experience at Route 91 has helped me heal.
Sending you my support and love girl !
People want to say she's acting because shes a black woman, but if this was a white girl, the comments would be filled with sympathy smh
Stop making this about race
SimplyManat We’ll stop making it about race, when it’s not truly about race babe.
Djsmithindahizzy but it ain’t
It’s nothing to do with her being black
Djsmithindahizzy period 😌💅🏽
Wow this is extremely powerful....Lord bless those that survived that tragic night!!
Evil. Pure evil. Literally the opposite of what Jesus taught. I starred crying when she mentioned seeing the blood on everyone’s faces.
I don’t think the killer was Christian. Was he ?
@@SincerelySage idk
Faizah Giwa no he was Islamic, claimed to be a solider of God. He planned the shooting after Abu Wahib was killed in an air strike.
@saimah patel Well, it's true, wether you believe it or not. And just because he was highly religious doesn't mean that he understood the teachings and lessons in the Qur'an. He might have been mentally ill. That's why he did such a horrible thing. No person right in the head does that. This was because he was not a good person, not because your religion isn't good.
@@onewish2230 well, we don't know the killer, and he should never be known.
For me at least I still morn pulse it’s terrible and I still can’t believe that this happened 😭 rip 49 your souls live on and we love you and to all the survivors your so strong
I’m only part way though and I’m wiping tears away
That press conference made no sense to me! Why did they do that to them especially 2 days after the shooting. Oh no
there is such a short time between all three shootings mentioned, and that is one of the scariest things.
Started watching through this quickly but its evident this will take proper watching, im gonna save this until later and give the girl the focus she deserves
No one should have to go through this
I feel guilt for being alive because I’m a nurse and watch people suffer everyday. Thus, I have severe depression and wish I could die by giving my organs to people that don’t have depression & don’t have to see trauma everyday & want to live & have reasons to live and people that love them.
I hope this girl mentally survives
STAN KIM YO-JONG thats not nice
Cookie3 Lively thank you Cookie! It’s people like Stan KIM that push others over the edge and people like you that pull us back. 💖
No. You are helping those people and you are worthy.
STAN KIM YO-JONG wow
Reagan Sanderson thank you!! Let’s hope this young girl stays mentally strong!! Thank you!! As nurses we really have no one to go to when we have mental distress. Thank you for being kind!
It takes a special someone to go back in for a friend. So brave, so strong, so incredible. I hope she truly has found her happiness and peace once again. And rest in peace to everyone who lost their lives that night.
I’m so glad she is reclaiming
her life
Shes incredibly strong and articulate.
All of you are wrong.
TH-cam didn't "pick this up late"
It's reshowing it. Probably trying too remind people that this needs to be talked about. It's not a mistake
To be grieving for a dead loved one, to be feeling guilt for having survived, to be feeling afraid every night without sleeping, to lose the sense of security that something like this could happen, to be feeling the pain of gunshot wounds in your legs, and _then_ to feel the anger and frustration that people are calling you a fraud.
I can’t imagine what that must feel like
