Thoughts and prayers for the officer who has reportedly been shot in this incident. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Horrible incident, my thoughts and prayers to the victims, their families and the heroic police officer who stopped the shooter and was subsequently injured. I know it's very selfish, but I am petrified to see how the lefties are going to use this and the Colorado incident to press forward an anti-gun agenda.
I was perusing the comments in the Globe article about this and can't believe all the deleted comments. http://www.boston.com/news/nation/a...ation_at_sikh_temple/?comments=all#readerComm
Went up to page 5 and STILL nearly every comment deleted. What a pathetic excuse for a newspaper. What's the point of having a comments section if you don't allow opinion? We don't agree with you, sooo, delete. Liberalism and the looney left at their finest. Their typical MO...
Oh, so THIS is immediately labeled "Domestic Terrorism', but Ft. Hood is still classified as "workplace violence." Great work by the Officers who took the fight to the shooter despite being wounded. Having a hard time believing anybody has these guys confused with mooselimbs after all the "education" we received post 9/11. Sent from my DROID X2 using Tapatalk 2
Jared Loughner, immediately tied to the Tea party, cross hairs, Glenn Beck and any wiff of Conservatism. The news was 24/7 hammering the right and guns until his friend said he was a pot smoking, flag burning liberal and then the story dissapeared from the msm. James Holmes, the Colorado shooter, also immediately connected to the Tea Party until we found out he was an Occupier, Elizabeth Warren and the leftists pet project and that story has been eased out of the msm. Major Hassan, a Muslim who was allowed to massacre people because of liberal political correctness and again mislabeled. Now since we have what "appears" to actually be a white supremacist shooter you will see this story on every station , and all the Muslim pc people that ignored the Ft. Hood connection with Islam will now take to the airways denouncing bid bad whitey and his hatred towards Muslims. Either way as gun owners, we are fucked.
I guess those ceremonial swords really are just for ceremonies. Sent from my DROID X2 using Tapatalk 2
The only reason I know this is because we had to take an online class about Sikh culture, but Sikh's are definitely NOT muslim (and I refuse to capitalize that word). Sikh's mostly are from India, and are not affiliated with muslims.

RIP to the fallen. Funny how the media is so quick to point this guy to be a veteran. They sure where quite when the Aurora shooter turned out to be a Ocupod.
http://www.dailykos.com/story/2012/08/06/1117242/-Remember-the-DHS-Right-Wing-Extremist-Report Daily Kos seems excited that the gunman was a white male, former Vet......meanwhile, 3 killed and 7 wounded in Chicago overnight (pretty much an average day in that city). I am going to take a wild guess that the shooters in these cases were not white males, former Vets....... http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/...in-separate-shootings-20120805,0,357780.story
Every race, ethnicity, culture, and party have their screwup psychos. Was this guy active? What "made" him racist? What flipped his switch?
Nobody ever said that nazis were the sharpest knives in the drawer. I know several Sikh families and so far as a comparison with muslims it ends at the physical appearance. I hope this reprobate baggadouche nazi fuckhead is burning in hell enjoying a jumbo pineapple sideways up his ass with a rock salt lube. http://www.sikhnet.com/news/contribution-sikhs-italian-campaign-1943-1945
Sikh temple shooting: Gunman had been on investigators' radar WASHINGTON -- Federal investigators had “looked at” Sikh temple gunman Wade Michael Page more than once because of his associations with right-wing extremists and the possibility that he was providing funding to a domestic terrorist group, but law enforcement officials at the time determined there was not enough evidence of a crime to open an investigation, a senior U.S. law enforcement official said. The official, who spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to speak to the media, would not say Monday which law enforcement agency had considered investigating Page, or when. Before his rampage Sunday at a Sikh temple in Oak Creek, Wis., that left him and six others dead and three critically wounded, Page was known to civil rights groups as a member of two racist skinhead bands – End Apathy and Definite Hate. He was also believed to have been a low-level member of a national white supremacist group called the Hammerskins. http://www.latimes.com/news/nation/...-sikh-temple-shooter-20120806,0,2390104.story
