The Orlando Massacre

I'm sad to hear what happened in Orlando, a city I visit every year and have fond memories of from having lived most of my life in Florida. Details are still being investigated, but what we know so far is that 1) there was at least one shooter (likely more, based on eyewitness accounts and the death toll), 2) his parents immigrated here from a Muslim nation, and 3) he was a Muslim fanatic.

The question here is fairly straightforward: has America become so terminal that political correctness is now stronger than the will to survive? As always, the difficulty is not figuring out what to do, but doing it.

UPDATE: 

Predictably, a large number of people are calling for unconstitutional federal restrictions on the rights of Americans (to bear arms) and rejecting calls for perfectly constitutional restrictions on the privileges of foreigners (immigration). Many, if not most, Americans are unworthy of the name.
