    It was a Sikh temple, and both of the assailants are white.

    per police chief...

    first officer on scene shot multiple times and in surgery
    shooter presumed deceased
    first officer and 1 civilian sent to hospital for gun shot wounds
    4 people deceased inside temple and 3 people outside (including a shooter)
    have not identified additional gunman at this time... and not sure if there were multiple shooters

    I was wondering how in the world you get multiple people to go along with this madness. Now they're saying it's one shooter, though sounds like that's not 100%.

    Just terrible.

    This is sikh and disgusting.

    Keep preaching hate and eventually the inane loonies begin to come out.

    This is really tragic news. Also, CNN's Don Lemon needs to stop referring to them as "Hindu Sikhs."

    The horrible thing about terrorism (no matter its color or origin) is its namesake: making people feel unsafe and unsure in what used to be their safest setting. A Jerusalem produce market, a movie theater, a place of worship. SMDH at how some humans can't cope with the modern world. So very sad.

    Milwaukee is an interesting town and I would bet they rally to the temple and the Sikh community there.

    Do you really think is an appropriate time for silly wordplay?

    i love the logic behind this.... "We are not Muslim! So this shooting is wrong"
    So if this was a mosque would it be fine?

    The motives of the gunman/gunmen haven't been released yet. How would we know?

    Don't know where you saw this... but I have to imagine the only point in such comments is that the current assumption is that the shooter(s?) confused the religious association of the temple. This may or may not turn out to be true. I doubt they're condoning the same sort of action on any other place of worship.

    FBI hate crime stats says Sikhs are not being targeted at a higher rate than any other religion. 2010 stats (most recent):
