Officials are describing the shooting at a Sikh temple near Milwaukee as a domestic terrorism incident.
Tattoos on the body of the slain Sikh temple gunman and certain biographical details led the FBI to treat the attack at a Milwaukee-area temple as an act of domestic terrorism, officials said Sunday.
The shootings in Oak Creek, Wis., left seven dead, including the gunman, and three critically wounded. One of the injured was a police officer who was expected to survive.
A federal official who spoke on the condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to speak to the media refused to say whether the gunman was thought to belong to a hate group or some other violent group because the investigation was still unfolding.
The shooting, which killed seven (including the shooter), is now believed to be the work of only one gunman, despite earlier reports suggesting otherwise. (more here)

If you really think this is going to make big national news you grossly overestimate the media.
