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.

At least three people were seen emerging from the building, escorted by police. It's not know if they were hostages.

Medics, escorted by police, have been taking other people from the building.

More to come.

In Dearborn Michigan today, I saw grafitti on a Firestation street sign.

"Israelis are Terrorists"

I've lived in Dearborn for a while, but, except for the occasional rally, I've never seen this.

Now, a shooting in Seattle by a disgruntled Muslim.

I fear this will not be the last we hear of these things.

I believe the pregnant woman was shot in the arm.

Correct. Mom and baby are OK.

How was your "date"? I'm actually happy that you missed most of the fawning, Seattle PC news coverage.

"I assume there's no capital punishment in Washington.

Washington State has the death penalty."

Wrong person. I was telling another poster that the state does have the death penalty.

"Once upon a time there was a man that beat a woman outside a restaraunt. The local law showed up and arrested the man. Unknown people posted bail for the man that beat the woman. The bond was forfeited, since the man that beat the woman never showed up for his hearing. The end."

And how does this compare with an attack by a Muslim on Jews? Did the woman die? How much was the bail? You're making no sense.

walk into the house, reach up, touch the Mezuzah, and kiss the finger tips...

In my house: walk into the house, reach down to my wallet, and kiss my hard earned sheckels good by!

Simon Weisenthal Center spokesman calling this a "terrorist attack."

He's calling it as he sees it -- The shooter is obviously answering the call to jihad. The feds won't admit it until it happens a couple more times.

It becomes like a pen or jackknife in your pocket. No big deal. Only you know it's there. Never take it out unless it must be used.

Situational awareness in warriorship is something that needs cultivation, it doesn't happen just because you carry a gun, and its not needed to carry a gun.

And you learn to avoid or walk away from any public physical fracas. Every thing else is normal and you actually forget you are wearing it.

Self defence is self defence. Not a hunting license.

"We believe it's a lone individual acting out his antagonism," said David Gomez, who heads the FBI's counterterrorism efforts in Seattle.

Authorities did not release any details about the alleged gunman and would not discuss possible motives.

"There's nothing to indicate that it's terrorism related," Gomez said. "But we're monitoring the entire situation."

So, I wonder what he is doing in TriCities? There is plutonium and all sorts of govt security this and that. Shouldn't be any Muslims for hundreds of miles there imho.

It's up to the rest of us to defend Jews in this country.

Damn right. No pogroms on our watch.

I'm sorry for the sarcasm, but it's hard to imagine living with such paranoia. It must be very difficult.

Everytime I fly, if there is someone who even remotely looks like a follower of allah, I note his seat number, and watch like a hawk. When I see them in the mall, the same thing. Not paranoia, just vigilance..

How do you trade in a firearm? I would love to do that because maybe I could afford a .45 if I could get some value for the Ruger. Seems like ammo is a lot more expensive. But thinking about that throaty roar instead of the flat crack of my gun sort of makes me feel all funny inside. :>

They do the news on my local talk radio station. It was the number story. TV Fox is a different story though, maybe they just would rather cover issues they worked on throughout the day. One would think this would be good for their ratings. A possible terror attack in the US- people will flip channels. Fox is stupid to not cover it (if they think about ratings).

Why do you insist on making the moral equivalency? The Jews have never wanted anything but to live in peace and they are the most persecuted people in the world.
