At least two or three people shoot.
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.
There have been about 15 messages from Osama & Zarahiri just this year, IIRC. Between that & the recent messages, it would behoove everyone to be extra alert. A few years ago (2002) I saw something that didn't seem right, and I walked nearly a mile to the Police Dept to report it. They took down my info & thanked me.
Placemarking this link here.
No formal FBI press release yet on the Seattle FBI web site at this time.

Re the ladies' handgun class, I was wrong on a couple of accounts as I was just spewing from memory as I often do, and poorly :-)
Other than that, there's a fair amount of info about it and it does require pre-registration. Given that the ad that I have of it is a rather complex layout (for an OCR program) and I didn't particularly relish the thought of the considerable amount of typing that would be involved in order to type all of the info into a Freepmail letter, I thought that the easiest way for you to get the most info the fastest would be for me to scan the ad to a JPG image and upload it to an image server, which I did. Here is the URL:
"Women On Target" Ladies (or Family) handgun classes in Olympia, Washington

If you doubleclick on the above URL, it SHOULD open up in your browser.
If you have any difficulty with reading it, please advise me and I will pursue a different solution :-)
I thought that I should post it here in this thread so that any other Washington ladies who are viewing this will have an opportunity to learn about it as well.
Thank you for caring enough to report it.
As madison10 pointed out, their form of koran tells them to attack Jews, too.
Plus, some South Asians can be pale skinned, and at a cursory glance could pass for being of European descent.
"KING 5 reports the suspect is Naveed Haq, a 30-year-old Pakistani man with a criminal background. He is from the Pasco and it a U.S. citizen, but it was not immediately known how long he has lived in the United States. Also unknown is what sort of criminal record he has. Officials are on the way to the Pasco to interview his family."
Thanks Marmema :) Actually I am registered for an uncoming hunters ed class. Should be fun! Handguns afterwards ;)
Suspects name is Naveed Haq from Pasco, Washington, 31 years old. He has at least one prior for lewd and lacivious conduct. They just showed is high school yearbook photo, so I guess we can assume he's been in the country for at least 13 years or so.
Thanks for letting me know :)
They shave their bodies? Strict Muslims tend to have short hair.
The version of events that I heard was that it was (almost) exclusively ladies there in the building at the time of this incident, so even though he may not have targeted them as women (going there to 'shoot some Jews' is bad enough) he demonstrated that he is subhuman by continuing with his rampage when he saw ladies there.
I know I'm old fashioned but I've always felt that anyone who intentionally causes harm to ladies doesn't even deserve a trial....he deserves being beaten to death with a hammer or to be fed through one of Saddam's plastic shredding machines.
And I agree, he acted in a manner that we've come to associate with the IslamoNazis.
For all their illusions, I can tell you, the Leftists here breed hate like puppies. And its really quite disturbing. The children have little hope.
That guy's from a whole other area of the country.
Actually, it was a triumph just having them admit it was a hate crime!
