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.

Cops won’t release shooter info. Searching related home. NBC local scrolls that the suspect has no direct ties to terrorism or white supremecist groups.

Still going with my he’s gotta b Muslim, targeted visiting high profile Sikh priest from India.

I don’t know...so far it’s only MSM wank that the shooter mistook Sikhs for Muslims. Another fairly logical explanation is the same one being used for Laughner and Holmes. According to a post upthread, the FBI was showing neighbors a picture of a guy in his 20s. That’s the same age as the other two shooters who, by most reports, are schizophrenics. The early 20s being a common age for this diagnosis to show up.

We had had no word about it at all in school. Nothing.

We did and was very worried when we heard about the Secret Service agent being shot.

Wonder if his girlfriend was a member of that temple? If this is the deal then why we’re they so quick to label it domestic terrorism? I am going with my earlier assumption too...it has something to do with visiting priest from India. Targeted assassination.

shooter had just had fight with his girlfriend.

So he shot up those nice people? WTF?

I guess we will find out. If that is true, how is that "domestic terrorism"? Especially if Ft Hood was "workplace violence".

Thanks for the updates.i can’t get local live news there on my iPad. I could walk my lazy butt downstairs and get on the old PC lol. I’ve been sick with a sinus infection and ear ache all day. Just hangin out in bed chatting with you guys and throwing out wild speculations.

My heart just aches for these people though. So sad. What the hell is wrong with people these days? Evil seems so proud and haughty now.
