With the international media descending on the South Shore following Sunday’s domestic terrorism attack at the Sikh Temple in Oak Creek — and authorities searching what could be the suspect’s home in Cudahy — there isn’t much I can offer here in terms of news updates.
I’ll leave that to everyone from local outlets like the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, Oak Creek Patch and WISN and international outlets like CNN and the New York Times.
I only offer this: My heartfelt thoughts and prayers for everyone impacted by this senseless tragedy, from the families of the victims to those who live among and interact with the Sikh community everyday. And that’s probably most of us in South Milwaukee.
I also offers prayers, and hope, that we can somehow end the gun violence epidemic facing our country. From the dozens of murders throughout the Milwaukee area each year to the too-frequent massacres like we saw Sunday, something has to be done.
I pray we find a solution to this.
