I was thinking the same thing. Mike is banned. Now would be a good time for a mercy unbanning. We could reban him again if he still needs to serve his time...

Why would anyone shoot Sikhs? Unless they confused them for Muslims?

Also an easy target as it is a large gathering of unarmed people...

A Sikh always carries a knife.

They are sending police around to other near by churches. It sounds like their man has got away.

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.

Two shooters are possibly still inside with children as hostages, according to someone who sent a text message to a Journal Sentinel reporter.

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 a 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.

Meanwhile, Brookfield police officers were dispatched to the Sikh Temple at 3675 N. Calhoun Road as a precaution in the aftermath of the Oak Creek shooting.

At least three squads were at the temple in Waukesha County.

About 50 people were at the Brookfield temple for a morning service and many of them went outside after they learned of the shooting in Oak Creek.

Yes well Aurora did not work.

The News chopper pilots are idiots in this town. They have their cameras fixated on the We Energies warehouse and not the temple.

They won't report anything of substance until their controllers tell them what to say.

They have someone else shot in anouther part of the city. Also they are having trouble securing the scene because they are short staffed.

The scanner just reported they have no information on suspects... so I don't think they're holding hostages.
