As usual, DU is in full thread proliferation mode wrt the synagogue shooting in MI. Some comments are simply talking about what happened and expressing satisfaction that the children and staff are OK, and that the would-be shooter met his end. But here are some gems from several of the threads:

Armed man rammed vehicle into Michigan synagogue and was fatally shot by security, AP source says
Source: AP
A man armed with a rifle rammed a vehicle into the nation’s largest Reform synagogue, in a Detroit suburb, and was fatally shot by security, The Associated Press has learned.
That’s according to a person familiar with the matter who spoke to The Associated Press on Thursday. The vehicle caught on fire after crashing into the Temple Israel synagogue in West Bloomfield Township, the person said.
Investigators were still working to identify the man and a possible motive for the attack. The person cautioned that the investigation is still in the early stages
The person could not publicly discuss details of the investigation and spoke to AP on condition of anonymity.
Oakland County Sheriff Sheriff Mike Bouchard confirmed during an earlier news conference that security at the synagogue had engaged in gunfire with at least one person, and that no one was in custody.

Is that so? Almost any other time there's a mass shooting, Democrats demand we talk about gun violence and the need to restrict guns. What's different about this one?

It's 50-50: 50% who the would-be shooter is not; 50% who the would-be shooter is. The shooter is not the MAGA Evangelical gun nut Progs seek.
