At least two or three people shoot.


Update:

SEATTLE – At least two people have been shot at the Jewish Federation at 2031 Third Ave. in downtown Seattle. One or two people have been taken into custody but it's not known if they are suspects.

One person was reportedly shot in the abdomen and another in the arm. They are being taken to Harborview Medical Center.

Part of Third Avenue and Second Avenue have been closed to traffic. Police are urging people to stay away from the area. It's not known if more suspects are at large but policemen were seen handcuffing one person and others were searching the area.

More to come.

There is probably some shock on this thread, self included, but in another sense, THERE IS NO SHOCK AT ALL. This was to be expected--they said as much one week ago. When they say that they are going to attack worldwide, IT MEANS THEY ARE GOING TO ATTACK WORLDWIDE.

In fact, those most foul bastards from the Arab/Muslim Street overseas just as clearly issued a Declaration of War on the United States. Problem is, we never accepted their Declaration of War until it came in the form of September 11, 2001, hand delivered to us in a very clear manner.

Just because he might have acted alone doesn't mean it wasn't terrorism inspired by their moon-god.

ARTICLE SNIPPET: "SEATTLE – One person has been killed and at least five others have been injured in a shooting at the Jewish Federation at 2031 Third Ave. in downtown Seattle. One suspect has been taken into custody.

Police have taken one person into custody. Seattle police spokesman Rich Pruitt said police are confident that only one shooter was involved.
Sources told KING 5 the suspect is a Pakistani man with a criminal background. He is from the Tri-Cities but his citizenship is unknown. Officials are on the way to the Tri-Cities to interview his family.

According to the Seattle Times, a man got through security at the Jewish Federation and told staff members, "I'm a Muslim American; I'm angry at Israel," then began shooting, according to Amy Wasser-Simpson, the vice president for planning and community services for the Jewish Federation.
A joint terrorism task force has moved in. SWAT teams and a bomb disposal unit are at the scene. The building is still being searched and a suspect vehicle is believed to be in a nearby garage in the Bed, Bath and Beyond building at 1930 Third Ave. Police cordoned off part of the garage but have not allowed owners to retrieve their cars until they determine there are no explosives.

Police have secured all the roofs around the building while the suspect is being questioned, to make sure no one else is involved.

The victims have not yet been identified."

This has the same feel, the same pace, minute by minute, on 4 July 2002 in LA, when the news trickled out about the LAX Islamofascist shooting at Tom Bradley Terminal (El-Al counter). First the truth leaked, then you could clearly see the FBI, local police and national media, start to put a muzzle on that crap right away, keeping it under control. Yep, this feels the same tonight watching it unfold.

"...known as a mezuzah (Heb.: doorpost), because it is placed upon the doorposts of the house. The mezuzah is not, as some suppose, a good-luck charm, nor does it have any connection with the lamb's blood placed on the doorposts in Egypt. Rather, it is a constant reminder of G-d's presence and G-d's mitzvot (commandments)."

"One witness, who declined to give her name, said a man walked into the Jewish Federation building with a gun, said he was upset about what was going on in Israel, then opened fire. After the shootings, the man said to call 911, the witness said. The witness said the man identified himself as an American Muslim."
