I live in the Orlando area, and have driven past the Pulse nightclub numerous times. The structure still stands, but there is a barrier wall around the front. It is covered with memorials to those killed (including a kid I taught in 8th grade when I first started in education). Every so often you'll see people there paying respect to the victims.
I've also been to Vegas several times since that shooting occurred. There is not one memorial or anything at the site. You'd never know anything had happened there, as far as I can tell.
Do you think that is because the Pulse shooting targeted a particular community (LGBT) and therefore has more sentiment attached, or is it an effort to memory-hole Vegas given how little has been released to the public about the shooter?
