The names of the Pulse nightclub massacre are slowly being revealed by Orlando officials between Sunday and Monday.

49 Names to Remember

The city of Orlando has been disclosing the names of the 49 people lost at the Orlando nightclub. Law enforcement previously announced 50 people were dead, but amended the number to 49 -- to not take into account the shooter who also died at the scene.

"No Act of Hate or Terror will Change Who Are Are"

During an address to the nation on Sunday afternoon, President Barack Obama said the Orlando attack was both an act of terror and an act of hate.

"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," said Obama from the White House briefing room, adding the FBI is investigating the events as an act of terrorism.

"[T]his 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," Obama later added.

Obama said the Orlando shooting is another example how easy it is to obtain a weapon and shoot a place, whether a school, house of worship or move theater.
