According to this one, two of the victims were Methodists. I saw in other articles that other people at the Center were not Jewish, which is common.

Sounds like reports of asking about Jewish status might be fog of imagination or he was not wanting to shoot Jews...

I grew up just 2 blocks from the old JCCC @ 82nd & Holmes in KCMO, and as long as I can remember, the emphasis has always been on "Community." I went to the JCCC Pre-School (NOT a religious school, and open to anyone of any faith,) and as I grew up, I played little league baseball, football, and basketball there. I took Judo lessons there, and later played racquet ball and "aerial darts" there. I would guess that at least half the family memberships were for non-Jews. Going to a Jewish day school, it was my socialization with non-Jews, and it was a wonderful place to grow up.
