To be fair, the younger generation do cut their hair.
I'm Hindu, but my cousins follow Sikhism, this hits really hard and close to home regardless of why it happened or who did it. I go to temple once every month or so, and it's such a calm place. fuck
It just struck me as funny. I wonder how many wtf is sikh? tweets they got before they added it.
I hope they find him before he does any more.
You can listen to police radio here.

I live in Milwaukee county (city of Milwaukee) so this is all they are talking about. Our city newspaper along with most news stations here are reporting about 4 dead along with tons of people wounded and a hostage situation.
This is a quote from most of the new stations around Milwaukee "Suspect is still at large, white male, large build, white sleeveless tshirt last seen with 2 guns."

Makes it even worse that it was at a temple

WTF, was the person innocent?
Of course not, SWAT doesn't open fire at random.
I'm sure one of the SWAT members will post on Gaf to let us know.
Sure that's right? I am not hearing anything about the shooting.

Dear Racists Nitwits:
Sikh's are NOT Muslims. Yes, I know the brown skin can confuse your tiny brains, but they're not alike in any way other than perhaps that their skin tones might be similar. So if you're going to shoot someone because they're not white, you might want to try harder being a bigot, But if you're going to half-ass it like this, you might just want to stay at home and shoot yourself instead because damn.....seriously....Sikhs? What the fuck they ever do to anyone?

You sure, they are still saying "One suspect" and he is at large.
edit: they updated it to gunmen based on what another station is saying.

This is terrible.
Yeah, the Oak Creek police feed on Tune In Radio isn't saying anything about this either.

Awful, awful... I have no words. I hope they catch the scumbag who did this. For me, this is just as disturbing as any other shooting. People getting killed while in the act of worship is a despicable act.

Yea, they said shooters were still inside multiple times.
Ok, now the guy said at least one, maybe more inside.

My point is how can they shoot and kill the person "believed to be a killer"? They're not going to try to catch him and take him to court or at least thoroughly verify that he was the shooter?
To who isn't it?

Do you believe a racist cares enough to distinguish between a Muslim and a Sikh? If he did, he'd be well on his way to not being a racist.

I remember even here in Canada, Sikh and Hindu temples were vandalized after 9/11. I do not know how people can be so ignorant.
I guess that if the guy(s) are still armed and there are civilians close...you shot them instead of risking more peoples lives.
Because they're protecting people's lives. If you're threatening the lives of others, you've essentially forfeited the right to yours.

Not going to jump to conclusions, but if this is related to religion...fuck this shit.
Yeah just saw this on CNN.
Apparently about 100 people were inside on the moment the shooting started. Suspect still at large, maybe still inside the sikh temple. And now the CNN host said "multiple shooters", at least 2 gunmen.
Crazy stuff, eh? One massacre per month now. My condolences to the relatives of the victims. May God bless you in this moment of pain.

It's just starting to get traction nationwide.

I have no idea what is hard to understand about why the gunman would be shot. Maybe you can explain to me what you think should have happened.
What if the armed person was a card carrying NRA member with a permit to conceal trying to stop the shooter? How would SWAT be able to tell it's the shooter or a citizen trying to help?
