Shits for real on CNN right now. Just breaking. No real details up to this point but hospitals have been told to expect 8-20 casualties. Stay updated.

What in the fuck is wrong with people, shits fucked. people who do this deserve to die, I don't care what anyone says. I don't care it they're considered "mentally ill", they are not fit to live in my opinion.

Fuck

http://www.jsonline.com/news/crime/reports-of-people-shot-at-sikh-temple-in-oak-creek-qc6cgc0-165059506.html

We are getting reports that 20 to 30 people have been injured in a shooting before 11 a.m. Sunday at the Sikh Temple, 7512 S. Howell Ave., in Oak Creek.

Flight for Life has been called.

Oak Creek police are not giving out any information at this point.

Oak Creek police, the Milwaukee County Sheriff's Department and other law enforcement agencies have responded.

There are reports that the head priest was locked inside a restroom with cell phone and said there was as many as 30 victims in temple.

As of about noon, the Milwaukee County Medical Examiner's Office said it had not been called to the scene.

We will update frequently.

the first responding officer encountered the shooter, and was shot multiple times, including in the neck. The officer returned fire. The shooter is down on the scene right now, unknown if they are alive or dead right now.


That, right there, is a true definition of hero.

i live literally 5 minutes away from here... this is fucking ridiculous. 1 gunman is dead in the parking lot, not known how many more gunmen are inside with many hostages including children. 3 people in the hospital and a cop was shot multiple times and should survive. all i really know for now.

That sucks. Seems like these type thing always come in groups. After the VT shooting a kid brought a gun to my school, but he just waved it around at people before he drove away and offed himself.

Its because the media makes them famous. If you were a psychotic, depressed maniac (all assuming in this case), what would you rather do? Off yourself quietly and be forgotten about or take 20 people with you so everyone in America knows who you are?

That's all speculation though because whoever responsible could have been influenced by other means.

i actually agree with this, too much attention for the terrible people, plus there really is no need for the whole country to hear about these things i think

People are fucked up. I agree with this: @robdelaney: ASPIRING MASS MURDERERS. Make sure your gun works by putting it up your asshole & pulling the trigger before you go on your spree.

7 people have died now.

the shooter was a US army veteran.

I bet he thought he was killing Muslims but is just too much of an idiot to realize Sikh's are NOT Muslim.

Very sad indeed.

Even if it was muslims why would you kill them. Not every muslim is a terrorist. I hate how when americans hear muslim they think terrorist.

It wasn't because he thought they were Muslim. Its because they weren't white. He was heavily into the whole minorities are destroying this country deal.

he was a white supremacist, had tattoos allover proving so and was part of a neo-nazi band where pictures and music can be found on a myspace page. there are a bunch of fucked up album covers and what not.

the cop that was shot was shot 9 times and is currently stable in the hospital.

Jesus, I knew about this shooting but that is just fucking... Too much. I have the goosebumps right now. What a fucking hero.

My cousin is an officer, and everyday I am scared he will encounter a situation like this. He is such a good man, as are almost all enforcers of the law, and things like this really break my heart.

Seriously.  Huge props to him and prayers going out to him and his family.   

What the fuck though!?!??  Attacking a temple?  I mean seriously, what fucked up reasoning could possibly convince you to do that???

True. Gun laws and restrictions seem to me like they wouldn't have changed this very much. If people want guns that bad they'll get them.

Vibes to all the family and friends.

But we could always bring back the assault rifle ban that Bush Jr. got rid of that would only serve to improve the situation. The only reason more people didn't die in the Colorado incident is because the guy's AR-15 jammed (which the student would have never gotten a hold of if the ban was in effect because everything he bought was done legally).

The only purpose of assault weapons is that they're fun to shoot. That's not a very legitimate defense against improving the safety of society from deranged psychos that are impossible to point out. You can still carry and use a LOT of really fun and powerful guns.
