Sikh Temple Site of Gun Violence

By Douglas V. Gibbs

Little evidence is available as to why the shooting occurred, but in a Sikh temple near Milwaukee, Wisconsin, a shooter killed six people, four of whom were inside the temple at the time of their murder, and wounded at least three people.

The gunman was killed on site. He shot and wounded one police officer.

The FBI will be taking over the criminal investigation. Motive remains a mystery.

Without any evidence and just guessing I think it was ignorance on the part of the shooter. I think he saw the turbans of the Sikhs and believed them to be Muslims. Unless some evidence of writings, notes or statements to people that knew the shooter turns up this is the only thing that would make sense to me.

Obviously the guy was a nut just as the Aurora CO shooter. Sort of hard to explain the motives of a crazy person.
