For the past two days, Americans have woken up in tears hearing of tragedy in Orlando, Florida. Two days in a row, there have been shootings at two different nightclubs. Yesterday, the nation woke up to find out that popular singer from "The Voice," Christina Grimmie, had been fatally shot outside of her concert at The Plaza Live.

All day yesterday, social media was flooded with heartbroken fans, friends, and family of Grimmie. They all tried to put into words how devastating it was to have lost such a great talent at such a young age. Christina was only 22 years old.

As the day went on, the city of Orlando began to cope with the news and tried to find the man who had committed this horrible crime. Fans around the world continue to grieve the loss, and family and friends continue to try to remain positive in the aftershock of her death.

But before Orlando could have the proper time to grieve and recover from such an incident, another, much worse shooting occurred.

Last night at Pulse, a gay nightclub in Orlando, there was a mass shooting. As of right now, the police have confirmed that 50 people have died and another 52 have been injured. This event is now officially the worst mass shooting in U.S. history.

So I have to ask-- what is happening in Orlando?

Two consecutive night, two heartbreaking tragedies.

Christina Grimmie was full of life, full of hope. She had a long and successful career ahead of her, but some loser decided that she didn't deserve to sing anymore-- no, he decided that she didn't deserve to breathe anymore. The man responsible for this crime was not from Orlando, nor did he live in the area. He lived somewhere else in the state of Florida and took the time to drive to Grimmie's concert just to shoot her. And as the coward he was, he took his own life just after taking her's.

Then again last night at Pulse. A man, not from Orlando, took the time to travel to the area, just to commit this crime. He was from Fort Pierce, a city 120 miles southeast of Orlando. Right now, the police define his actions as a crime of domestic terror. When the shooting began, an officer at the club immediately started firing at the suspect and other authorities were dispatched to the location. Once backup arrived, they saved some of the club-goers and shot and killed the gunman.

The past two days have been hard for the Orlando community and our nation. But going forward, we must continue to hope for some peace to be brought to the families of the dead.

Let us hope that this is the last time a city will have to experience such tragedies.
