Default Attack on a Sikh Temple.. at least 7 dead, act of domestic Terrorism????..

A gunman interrupted a Sikh church service and killed 7 folks.. more injured, including a policeman.. they are searching the alleged shooters home, who was killed by another police officer.

The police are treating this as a case of domestic terrorism, RIP those of you who died, may your families somehow find peace..

Now you have to think about going to your place of worship...

"Sikhism is such a peaceful religion. We have suffered for generations, in India and even here."

The NYPD also announced, out of caution, a heightened police presence at Sikh temples in New York City.

Sikhism is a monotheistic faith that was founded in South Asia more than 500 years ago. It has roughly 27 million followers worldwide. Observant Sikhs do not cut their hair; male followers often cover their heads with turbans -- which are considered sacred -- and refrain from shaving their beards. There are roughly 500,000 Sikhs in the U.S., according to estimates. The majority worldwide live in India.

As of this morning, there are reports that the suspect is a white supremist, but you know how early reports can be. Have yet to hear details on that front, the only detail I have heard is that he has a 9/11 tattoo on his arm.

Not for nothin', but the first widely reported hate crime after 9/11 was a guy who yelled "Go back to Iraq!" at a Sikh, then shot him.

Those are just details jc geez.....

In some many words I agree with you and remember back when I was in college post 9/11 Sikhs being attacked in Jersey(??) because people thought they were Muslim.

Either way, thoughts and condolences to the families and friends of those impacted by this sad event.

I will say between this, the Tuscon event and Aurora a couple weeks back, here is my request to anyone who has issues and is thinking about hurting other productive members of society. Do us all a favor and just take yourself out to pasture and put one in your skull. If you have gone so far of the reservation that hurting other random people is an idea you are considering, why not just save everyone else the heartache just off yourself?

And to those who question the callousness of that statement, I'm sorry I'm not sorry.

it's the ole shooot first, ask questions later mentality


as for your statement, i think everyone in the world who is normal, would support that

the steps should be
a. get help, or
b. just affect yourself


aside from being attention whores, or a general hatred for some sort of people based on religion or whatever, i don't understand why people like this kill innocent people, innocent in terms of the victims having never done anything to the offender.

I am wondering why this guy went into a sikh church and started firing at innocent people. Did he think this was a mosque? I know a lot of Indians who are Sikh and they are very nice people. The white piece of **** who went in there did not say a word and just started firing. We will never know the true actions of this crime.

We should learn more about the motive as the investigators gathers more evidence, buts what's up with the "white piece of ****" comment?

White Supremacist and White piece of **** is the same thing. If it were a black panther who did something like this it would be a black piece of ****. Any hate group are pieces of ****!

Or just pieces of ***. Perhaps not even worthy of being pieces of ****.
