Harrowing reports of a shooter at a synagogue emerged as victims called 911 in Poway, California at roughly 11:30 am local time this morning. San Diego Police quickly responded to the scene where at least four injured were transported to local hospital. 

ABC10 reports that, "The incident was reported at the Congregation Chabad located at 16934 Chabad Way sometime before 11:30 a.m., the San Diego County Sheriff's Office twitter account reported.

"Deputies investigate reports of a man with a gun. Please stay clear of the area and allow deputies to safely do their job. Thank you for your patience and cooperation," said the tweet." 

According to ABC10,  the suspected shooter has now been detained and is being questioned by police. His motives are unclear.

ABC 10 notes, "The synagogue was hosting its Passover Holiday Celebration which was scheduled to begin at 11 a.m., according to an event announcement. The celebration was to end at 7 p.m. with a final Passover meal."

This article will be updated as details come in.

Wikipedia has an accurate description of what the Christian Identity movement amounts to.

They’re not Nazis pretending to be Christians, but Christians who adore Nazism. Today you’d have to be using methamphetamines to understand it, but from the Middle Ages to the early 20th Century it would have been regarded as normative Christianity.

The region of California where this synagogue shooting occurred is only about a thirty minute trip from some of the historic breeding grounds of the Aryan Nations-Christian Identity movement. Or, at least used to be until the traffic congestion made driving from Fallbrook, Temecula, and Hemet a longer ordeal.

If you’ve never heard of any of this before, well, I can say I have been eyewitness to seeing a handful of these troglodytes run off of FreeRepublic in my twenty years here.

Uh, no ...

Christian Identity (also known as Identity Christianity) is a racist, anti-Semitic, and white supremacist interpretation of Christianity which holds that only Germanic, Anglo-Saxon, Celtic, Nordic, Aryan people and those of kindred blood are the descendants of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob and hence the descendants of the ancient Israelites.

...

Christian Identity holds that all non-whites (people not of wholly European descent) will either be exterminated or enslaved in order to serve the white race in the new Heavenly Kingdom on Earth under the reign of Jesus Christ. Its doctrine states that only "Adamic" (white people) can achieve salvation and paradise.

And ... no ...

So it could have been a safe fake ‘hate’ crime, aiming to do minimal damage with the knowledge there’d be people there to put it out in plenty of time. Meanwhile leaving some taqiyya graffiti to push the meme. Much less effort to do significant harm, very different MO, from what he did today. Check closer for connections to those inside the mosque at the time.

Sorry, you’re wrong. They’re not Christians. They may come from an ethnic group that was historically Christian and now secular (say, Germans, Scandinavians, etc.) but there is no way they can be considered Christian.

They’re possibly identified with one of these formerly Christian ethnic groups, usually Northern European, but they aren’t Christian and most of them have probably never even darkened the door of a church, or at least not since Granny died.

Thanks for the explanation. I have heard of the Arayan name before honestly didn’t realize they say they are Christian though.

“I’m just a normal dude who wanted to have a family, help and heal people, and play piano.”

He may think he’s normal, but his rant sounds like classic schizophrenia.

...“I did not do this alone. I had the help of a man named Felix Arvid Ulf Kjellberg. He was kind enough to plan and fund this whole operation—the sly bastard. Apparently, Pewdiepie hates Jews as much as Pajeets. Who would’ve known?

I am so sorry these good people were attacked. That poor woman was murdered right in her place of worship. It’s outrageous. Anti-Semitism has no place in America. We love our Jewish brothers and sisters. This is their home, too. God be with them and comfort them.

Because Tv comedians degrade to just crude and vulgar.

Why, society is steadily devolving. Unfortunate. I don’t believe in censorship. But maybe family values need to be looked at.

Partner, this is one great pic and true statement.

The sad part is that Mohammad copied everything from the Jewish religion and the sorry Mooselimbs can not even figure this out themselves.
