Gunman Shoots Four, Kills Two At Christian Missionary Center

Story here.

2 People are now confirmed dead after a lone gunman walked into a dorm-like residence hall of the Youth with a Mission Missionary Center in Arvada Colorado, just after midnight and began shooting.

There is no indication that this is terror related at this time. Authorities are looking for a male, approximately 20 years of age,wearing a beanie cap. We will continue to monitor this story as it develops.

The suspect is a white male, about 20 years old, said Medina. He may have be wearing glasses and a dark skull cap or beanie. He also may be sporting a beard or mustache, she said.

The center is home to dozens of young people from all over the world who are training to be Christian missionaries, according to the center’s Web site.

Hate crime? If it was a mosque or Islamic school, surely the CAIR would be screaming such things as "Islamophobia", "hate crime", "rising, rampant, crisis-level anti-Muslim violence" and demanding the government do even more to protect Muslims.

How about protecting Christians, too, as well as Jews? These folks are being attacked, too.

By the way, did you know that, according to the FBI, in 2006, there were 156 anti-Islamic attacks reported, compared to 967 anti-Jewish attacks (comprising the vast majority of religiously-related attacks, in fact) in America? Not only that, "hate crimes" against Muslims have plummeted a lot, 68%, since the post-9/11 aftermath. So where on earth does the likes of the CAIR get the idea of "rising Islamophobic violence and hatred"?

Any attack on any religious group is one too many. But let's be honest. Muslims aren't suffering any relatively great crisis of intolerance manifesting into violence against them compared to, say, Jews.

If anyone needs greater protection from hatred, intolerance and violence, it's clearly the Jews. Perhaps anti-Christian violence may be on the rise, we may eventually find... after all, there is a lot of hatred and intolerance directed at the JudeoChristian people, no doubt about it.
