Re: ANOTHER MASS SHOOTING - Sikh Temple in WI

Irregardless of who fired the fatal shot, the two police officers acted heroically and in a manner that they should be very proud.

They saved countless lives.

This was described as an "act of domestic terrorism". Interesting that shootings at Christian/Jewish places of worship are never described in that manner AFAIK.
Or the shooting of American military and civilian staff by a devout Muslim who was in contact and mentored by a know terrorist..
I kinda noticed that right off.

Re: ANOTHER MASS SHOOTING - Sikh Temple in WI

Well it finally happened. Radio 740 KTRH right between Rush Linbaugh segments had a news segment where they said the shooter was watched by the FBI because of his right wing conservative views.
There it is, he was a right wing conservative.

Re: ANOTHER MASS SHOOTING - Sikh Temple in WI

Right now both CNN and HLN have talk shows on about guns right now (Piers Morgan and Dr. Drew). Some of the attention grabbers include: Do you feel safe enough to leave your home? Are 88 guns per 100 people too many? Do hunters really need assault weapons that shoot 100 bullets at time?

Lovely.

Re: ANOTHER MASS SHOOTING - Sikh Temple in WI

The conservative radio talk show host and author, Michael Savage, does not have a way for me to email him my frustration with him and the bone headed things he says.

Yesterday it was the comment that Zimmerman was ordered not to follow Trayvon by the 911 operator. Today he suggested that churches needed to hire armed security guards if they no longer felt safe.

He lives in San Fransisco and grew up in New York, he supports the constitution, but obviously because of his background, guns are for the police and hunters. He probably has no experience with guns. How could he considering where he has lived, so he can not imagine that a devout religious person could actually legally conceal carry a gun into their place of worship and protect everyone who is there.

He does not understand places where people gather that are gun free zones are targets for these nut cases bent on fame and glory from the newsmedia.

Re: ANOTHER MASS SHOOTING - Sikh Temple in WI

News is reporting that shooter is military, has a girlfriend and tattoo's. They said active duty, but this is all speculative. No motive at this point.

The first responding police officer was shot 9 times. He was wearing a vest.

Re: ANOTHER MASS SHOOTING - Sheik Temple in WI

The Sikh religion is from the Indian region of Punjab. They wear turbans, and have small curved knives, but are not Muslim. They are often mistaken for Muslim in America. They are a minority in India. Most Indians are Hindu. They believe in reincarnation. I get the impression that they have been persecuted in their homeland for their beliefs and here in America since 9/11 because of their resemblance to Muslims.

Very sad. RIP.
