    Something odd. Many witness accounts of 4 gunMEN. Not a single gunMAN.



    00:23 - "There are multiple shooters. Multiple people."
    00:27 - "It wasn't haphazard. It was a well coordinated thing."

    Yet headlines read that this was a lone wolf act. Odd.

    I'd say that's common. It's chaos and people who are not trained in any way are put right in the middle of a gun fight with no guns. While it is possible they saw multiple shooters and the others got away, I'd say through investigation the police can get a pretty good idea of the actual number of shooters.

    So white supremacist shoots and kills a bunch of Sikh's.....Where oh where is Mtn Ref on this one? He would've tripped over himself running to the keyboard to post about it had it been Sikh's carrying out the attack.

    FBI said today there is no reason to suspect more than one shooter.

    Lt. Brian Murphy of Oak Creek police deptartment took 9 shots. He then waived off help from other officers so they could go assist inside the Sikh Temple. Hero.

    Like all these horrible shootings, it's a very sad situation for the victims, their families, and the whole community. I used to live in that area and my family still does. If he shooter was on a watch list as Clyde said, I hope the authorities are able to use that information to find any links.

    FBI said the shooter died of a self-inflicted GSW to the head.

    I used to live in Oak Creek. About a mile or so west of I-94 on HWY 100, right across from the state motor pool. It was a great place to live. Wisconsin was a great place to live. What are we coming to?
