Have to love Infowars. Now the thing I want to see is fleshed out interviews with that guys' parents and then the second guy because I can't tell if he is like a spokesman for the temple/group or if he was actually giving a first hand account of what he saw. Or anybody else that was there and says the same thing for that matter. If all these Sikhs were dressed in a similar manner and 4 guys in black stormed in there, it's seems like it would be extremely hard to get that part wrong.

The police obviously don't agree. They are going with 1 shooter.

The most I've heard so far is that the shooter is a skin head/white supremacist and the weapon was a single semi-automatic handgun.

What are the chances that he chose a Sikh temple on Sunday because he knew there would be absolutely no resistance in the form of weapons?

I've actually heard Sikh priests carry daggers.

All baptized Sikhs carry kirpans, or ceremonial daggers. Ceremonial being the key part. I've never met anyone who carries an actual, usable one. The few Sikh students I've had who carry them to school have 4-5 inch ones that are sheathed in such a way that you wouldn't be able to take them out in less than 10-20 seconds.

This is horrible. I am glad the took the gunman out. Sickening to see. It especially pisses me off when it is a religion targeted or children.

This. It is one of the 5 Kakars, or "K's". Some of them are getting even smaller though, like in the centimetre range. Of course, this is more of a recent thing, as every baptized Sikh was supposed to carry a full-sized dagger back in the day.

I remember seeing as real kirpan on the wall of a friend's house. Something like this:

Obviously, a real weapon that one could do some really gruesome damage with.

The ones worn to school look like this:

Dishonorably discharged. Gangs (white supremacists included) infiltrating the military has become a problem. Not a huge, immediate threat but still a problem. Guys go in then do not rejoin and go back to their gang with military training. Cops facing off agaisnt that is a whole different ballgame then a local punk gang banger.
