At least four people were shot just after 10 a.m. Sunday at the Sikh Temple in Oak Creek, and a police SWAT team entered the building before noon and brought uninjured people out of the building at 7512 S. Howell Ave.

Among those who were shot was the president of the temple.

People were in the temple as early as 6:30 a.m. Sunday and many more were arriving for a service that was to begin about 11:30 a.m.

There were reports that children were taken to the building's basement after shots were fired.

Muzzies killed hundreds of thousands of Sikhs during the partition. Butchered whole trains full of families. During the Moghul emperors, they tortured and killed a head Sikh guru and his sons.

why would they release a statement so quickly saying how they stand with the Sikh community.

They've done that in response to prior attacks against Sikh's.

Why are the holding the name? They can’t allow for an Islamic terrorist attack this close to the election because they want Obama reelected: So they are covering up evidence that the shooter is a Muslim.

Don’t forget the bridge in Ohio (averted) and the Va Tech shooter.

” Anyone hear any news about what kinds of firearms were used? “

It seems to me that the Media has been remarkably circumspect in their reporting - I haven’t seen any reports mentioning “AK47”, or “High Powered Military Style Assault Rifle”, or even “High Capacity Automatic (sic) Pistol”....

Despite the lack of further information, ABC local news (and countless Tweets on Twitter) have begun implying that former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin supposedly motivated the actions of the shooter because of her “Take Back the 20” political “target map”:

That is because they reported earlier it was two handguns. Not much to exploit if that s the case...so they are moving on to the ‘white bigot’ angle.

If they have learned anything in the last two weeks it is to know the shooter either fits the template or purge the Internet of any ties to things that don't. They are working overtime at the google and Facebook offices as we speak.

I think its sad that our media is so damn corrupt that the second a horrible event happens the first thing they do is try to tie it to the Republican party and the Tea Party Movement. Why can’t it be some whack job who shot a bunch of people and leave it at that. There are many sickos amongst us, people do sick things and this is one of them, but for the media, they salivate for stuff like this to happen, just so they can blame those “Evil Republicans.”
And your right, this being so close to the election(And I never used to think that way either) with Obama, I wouldnt be surprised by anything he or his minions do anymore. If they think they are going to lose, I wouldn’t be surprised at the least if they started pulling stunts like this

The shooter may be white but that doesn’t mean he didnt convert to Islam, maybe that is what they want to hide

The media loves mass shootings, it gives them something to do, and I’m being serious..when something bad happens you can see the glee on their face like they have been waiting their whole media career for something like this

Once again, what is Fox reporting now and who is the news reader?

Embarrass yourself some more.

Exactly . There is no reason to be holding back info on this shooter for this long. They are covering up evidence that the shooter is Muslim on Google , anywhere. They cannot allow for an Islamic terrorist attack to happen this close to the election as that would derail the reelection of their Obama.
