Facebook activated its "Safety Check" function on Sunday for the first time in the United States after a gunman massacred 50 people at a nightclub in Orlando, Florida.

一名枪手在美国佛罗里达州奥兰多市的一家夜店，持枪杀害了50人，脸书周日在美国首次启用了“安全确认”功能。

The Safety Check, first introduced in October 2017, allows Facebook users to spread the word that they are safe in wake of a natural disaster or a crisis, and allows searches for those who might be in the affected area.

安全确认功能最早于2017年10月推出，脸书用户可以在自然灾害或危机过后传递出他们的安全信息，并方便搜寻可能身处受影响区域的人。

"Waking up this morning, I was horrified to hear about the shooting in Orlando. My thoughts and prayers are with the victims, their families and the LGBT community," said Facebook Chief Executive Mark Zuckerberg on his official account.

“今天早上一醒来，我就听到奥兰多枪击的消息，我非常震惊。我的思绪和祈祷与受害者及其家属以及LGBT A gunman armed with an assault rifle killed 50 people at a packed gay nightclub in Orlando on Sunday in the worst mass shooting in US history. Police killed the shooter at the Pulse nightclub, who was identified as Omar Mateen, a 29-year-old Florida resident and US citizen.

周日，在奥兰多，一名枪手手持冲锋枪在一家拥挤的同性恋夜店里杀害了50个人，这是美国历史上最糟糕的一起大规模枪击事件。警方已在这家“脉搏”夜店击毙了这个枪手，这名枪手名为奥马尔•马丁，29岁，居住在佛罗利达，是一位美国公民。

The incident quickly emerged as a top trending topic on Facebook and Twitter with hashtag #PrayforOrlando being one of the top posts throughout the day.

此次事件迅速升温，成为脸书和推特上最热门的话题，而#为奥兰多祈福也成为了全天发帖数最多的话题标签之一。

Last year, Facebook vowed to turn on the Safety Check more often during disasters in response to criticism that it enabled the function after attacks on Paris and not a day earlier when a bomb killed at least 43 people in Beirut.

去年，有批评者说，脸书在巴黎恐怖袭击后开启了安全确认功能，而前一天在贝鲁特发生炸弹爆炸，导致至少43人死亡，此项功能却没有开启，为回应这一指责，脸书称要在灾难发生期间更频繁地启用安全确认功能。

奥巴马：美国奥兰多枪击事件是恐怖仇恨行为

北京时间6月13日凌晨两点，美国总统奥巴马召开记者发布会，就发生在奥兰多的大规模枪击事件发表讲话，他表示这是一起恐怖仇恨行为，对伤亡者表达沉痛的哀悼和慰问，并表示相关调查正在进行。

奥巴马讲话全文：

Today, as Americans, we grieve the brutal murder — a horrific massacre — of dozens of innocent people. We pray for their families, who are grasping for answers with broken hearts. We stand with the people of Orlando, who have endured a terrible attack on their city. Although it’s still early in the investigation, we know enough to say that this was an act of terror and an act of hate. And as Americans, we are united in grief, in outrage, and in resolve to defend our people.

I just finished a meeting with FBI Director Comey and my homeland security and national security advisors. The FBI is on the scene and leading the investigation, in partnership with local law enforcement. I’ve directed that the full resources of the federal government be made available for this investigation.

We are still learning all the facts. This is an open investigation. We’ve reached no definitive judgment on the precise motivations of the killer. The FBI is appropriately investigating this as an act of terrorism. And I’ve directed that we must spare no effort to determine what — if any — inspiration or association this killer may have had with terrorist groups. What is clear is that he was a person filled with hatred. Over the coming days, we’ll uncover why and how this happened, and we will go wherever the facts lead us.

This morning I spoke with my good friend, Orlando Mayor Buddy Dyer, and I conveyed the condolences of the entire American people. This could have been any one of our communities. So I told Mayor Dyer that whatever help he and the people of Orlando need — they are going to get it. As a country, we will be there for the people of Orlando today, tomorrow and for all the days to come.

We also express our profound gratitude to all the police and first responders who rushed into harm’s way. Their courage and professionalism saved lives, and kept the carnage from being even worse. It’s the kind of sacrifice that our law enforcement professionals make every single day for all of us, and we can never thank them enough.

This is an especially heartbreaking day for all our friends — our fellow Americans — who are lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender. The shooter targeted a nightclub where people came together to be with friends, to dance and to sing, and to live. The place where they were attacked is more than a nightclub — it is a place of solidarity and empowerment where people have come together to raise awareness, to speak their minds, and to advocate for their civil rights.

So this is a sobering reminder that attacks on any American — regardless of race, ethnicity, religion or sexual orientation — is an attack on all of us and on the fundamental values of equality and dignity that define us as a country. And no act of hate or terror will ever change who we are or the values that make us Americans.

Today marks the most deadly shooting in American history. The shooter was apparently armed with a handgun and a powerful assault rifle. This massacre is therefore a further reminder of how easy it is for someone to get their hands on a weapon that lets them shoot people in a school, or in a house of worship, or a movie theater, or in a nightclub. And we have to decide if that’s the kind of country we want to be. And to actively do nothing is a decision as well.

In the coming hours and days, we’ll learn about the victims of this tragedy. Their names. Their faces. Who they were. The joy that they brought to families and to friends, and the difference that they made in this world. Say a prayer for them and say a prayer for their families — that God give them the strength to bear the unbearable. And that He give us all the strength to be there for them, and the strength and courage to change. We need to demonstrate that we are defined more — as a country — by the way they lived their lives than by the hate of the man who took them from us.

As we go together, we will draw inspiration from heroic and selfless acts — friends who helped friends, took care of each other and saved lives. In the face of hate and violence, we will love one another. We will not give in to fear or turn against each other. Instead, we will stand united, as Americans, to protect our people, and defend our nation, and to take action against those who threaten us.
