Gunman, six others dead at Wisconsin Sikh temple - CNN.com Apparently the shooter had a 9/11 tattoo. Don't know if that is pertinent to his motivations, or not.
Obviously, but it wouldn't be the first time some white middle class crusader took out a Sikh in retaliation of something that they didn't do.
It's been over ten years since 9/11 and I'm trying to remember if anything else has happened lately that would stoke some anti-Islamic sentiment but can't think of anything... So I doubt this was a spur of the moment thing. He had time to figure things out.
Well ignore my little tattoo comment. It was just a detail mentioned and it may have nothing to do with anything. We just know it was a white, bald, middle-aged male with that tattoo who was the gunman. I don't want to inject anything that isn't there. I just know this happened a lot right after 9/11 even though it didn't get much coverage.
Calling for heightened gun control, saying a President has been shot schools have been shot up, etc., time is now for someone to step up.
I think some reports have said it was a legal gun but that really really doesn't manner. It was the coward behind the gun that pulled the trigger.
Presidents shot, Congresswomen shot, Beatles' stars shot, movie-goers shot, temple-users shot. Where does it end? Who will at least try? Another day, another gun massacre in America with a legally-owned firearm. So horribly predictable and depressing. #Wisconsin #Sikh Those are some of his tweets. According to him, IP, the weapon was legal.
