    San Bernardino shooting: At least 14 people killed; two suspects dead
    By Steve Almasy, Kyung Lah and Alberto Moya CNN
    Updated 10:21 PM ET, Wed December 2, 2015



    San Bernardino, California (CNN)—Two suspects in the mass shooting that killed 14 people at a center for people with developmental disabilities were fatally shot in a gun battle with police hours after the initial incident.

    The suspects -- a man and a woman -- had assault-style rifles and handguns, San Bernardino Police Chief Jarrod Burguan told reporters. They were dressed in what he called assault-style clothing.

    A third person was detained close to the scene of the shootout, but it is possible he is not connected to the shootings, Burguan said.

    Earlier police said they were hunting as many as three suspects, who had fled in a black SUV.

    The residential area not far from where the shooting at the Inland Regional Center occurred was flooded with law enforcement following a chase that ended with police and the suspects exchanging gunfire.

    Meanwhile, authorities finished clearing the three buildings on the property and examining the conference center where the initial shootings occurred.

    [Latest developments, posted at 9:45 p.m. ET]


    • An FBI raid was underway Wednesday night at an apartment in Redlands where authorities are serving a search warrant linked to the shooting at Inland Regional Center.

    • One of the suspects was at the holiday event where the initial shooting took place, a law enforcement official told CNN. There was a dispute at the event and the man left, the official said. It's believed he returned with two other suspects, the official added.

    Burguan confirmed there was a dispute at an event at Inland Regional Center. Someone left the event after the dispute, he said, but it was unclear whether that person was later involved in the shooting. "There was some type of dispute or something when somebody left that party. But we have no idea if those were the people who came back," Burguan said.

    • Five people were transported to Loma Linda University Medical Center, hospital spokeswoman Briana Pastorino said. Two of the patients were in critical condition, two were in fair condition and one person was being assessed. Arrowhead Regional Medical Center said one patient had been discharged and five were still getting treatment.

    ISIS Just Responded to the San Bernadino Shooting with This Chilling Message

    By Brian Hayes on December 2, 2015


    ISIS extremists are celebrating the mass shooting in San Bernardino hours after the massacre, praising Three Lions — an apparent refrence to three shooters — and creating the hashtag #America_Burning as police hunted for as many as three shooters.

    The chilling messages came amidst unconfirmed reports of a “Middle Eastern male” who may have been partially responsible for the carnage.

    Vocativ discovered the ISIS posts on web forums where confirmed ISIS extremists frequently share information.


    ثلاث ليوث اثلجوا صدورنا بفضل الله مازالوا أحياء ويتجولون شوارع كاليفورنيا بالزى العسكرى وبأسلحة ثقيلة #أمريكا_تشتعل #تكبيـر

    — ﺳ̲ﻟ̲آﻣ̲يےﻋ ﺂ̲ﻟ̲ﺩ̲ۆﻟة (@alSaoD__yahoD__) December 2, 2015


    Translation:

    “Three lions made us proud. They are still alive,”
    One ISIS adherent tweeted after the shootings at Inland Regional Center in San Bernardino, but prior to the subsequent apparent killing of at least one of the assailants after their Black Yukon SUV was cornered, and a wild gunfight ensued.

    After the Paris attacks, confirmed ISIS accounts praised “Lions” as well. But ISIS also took explicit credit for those attacks. They have not done so with San Bernadino.

    “The San Diego Tribune reported:


    Riverside police dispatchers have broadcast a general advisory that the suspects involved in the shootings in San Bernardino may have fled in a black GMC Yukon, heading northbound on Waterman Avenue, roughly 40 minutes ago.

    The broadcast indicated there were unconfirmed reports the suspects were male and of Middle Eastern origin, “armed with AK-47s and wearing body armor.”

    The broadcast was part of a region-wide alert issued by the San Bernardino Police Department.

    UPDATE: REPORT CONFIRMED (7:02pm PT ): Law enforcement officials have identified “Syed Farook” as one of the suspected shooters who attacked a center for the disabled in San Bernardino, California, according to NBC News. The Daily Beast has learned that the police have just executed a search warrant at a Redlands, California address—an address that belongs to Farook’s family.

    One suspect identified, police kill man and woman connected to San Bernardino mass shooting
    Los Angeles Times - By Veronica Rocha and Joseph Serna
    19 mins ago


    A man and a woman connected to a mass shooting that left 14 people dead and 17 wounded in San Bernardino were killed in a firefight with police officers after a car chase Wednesday, authorities said.


    Two law enforcement sources identified one of the suspects as Syed Farook. Two separate law enforcement sources said one of the suspected gunmen was an American citizen, but declined to identify them.

    Public records show a person named Syed R. Farook was employed by the San Bernardino County Health department as an environmental health specialist, but it was not clear if that was the same person involved in the shooting.

    The identity of the man and woman killed by police was not immediately known.

    Police tracked the alleged assailants to a home in the Redlands around 3 p.m., touching off a dramatic televised car chase that ended in a shootout on the streets of San Bernardino, according to city police chief Jarrod Burguan.

    A police officer was also wounded in the gun battle, but is expected to survive.

    A federal law enforcement source told The Times that the suspects hurled what were believed to be pipe bombs at police during the vehicle pursuit. Burguan said police recovered one device, but it turned out not to be an explosive.

    A third person was detained in the area where the pursuit ended. That person's connection to the shooting was unknown.

    The chase came four hours after assailants opened fire at a holiday party at the Inland Regional Center, a social services office that aids people with developmental disabilities.

    A senior federal official who is monitoring the case said investigators believe one of the shooters left the party after getting into an argument and returned with one or two armed companions. Local officials at an evening news conference said it was not clear whether the people involved in the dispute were the same people involved in the shooting.

    The shooters carried long guns and wore masks when they opened fire around 11 a.m. in a large conference room where San Bernardino County health department employees were gathered, according to witnesses and officials.

    In an exchange overheard on a law enforcement radio channel, an official can be heard telling a dispatcher Farook "was at the meeting," referring to where the shooting took place, and then left "out of the blue."

    Farook "was acting nervous" and left the building approximately 20 minutes before the gunfire erupted, according to the recorded transmissions.

    A black sport utility vehicle was seen fleeing from the office complex where the shooting occurred. Shortly before 3 p.m., police began pursuing a black SUV in San Bernardino.

    TV footage showed dozens of heavily armed police officers approaching the SUV, and officers in tactical gear could be seen stalking through a San Bernardino neighborhood.

    A body could be seen lying in the street near the vehicle. Blood was pooling nearby and a weapon was lying just feet away.

    The motive for the attack remains unclear.

    "Is this a terrorist incident? We do not know," said David Bowdich, assistant director of the FBI's Los Angeles field office.

    Burguan said that at least one device that police believed to be an explosive was recovered at the center, where authorities were expected to remain for several hours. Earlier in the day, a federal law enforcement official told The Times that a robot had been used to dispose of a potential explosive device.

    The shooting rippled across San Bernardino. All county schools, as well as city government buildings and courthouses, were on lockdown as police continued to search for the assailants. School officials, however, stressed that students had not been in danger and were dismissed on the regular schedule.

    During a news briefing, Burguan said information about the party being the focus of the attack was "preliminary" and he declined to comment on a motive for the shooting.

    “We have no information at this point to indicate that this is terrorist related, in the traditional sense that people may be thinking,” Burguan said. “Obviously, at a minimum, we have a domestic terrorist-type situation that occurred here.”

    Hundreds of people were on the grounds at the time of the attack, Burguan said. Inland Regional Center officials said the conference room where the party was taking place can hold up to 200 people.

    Chaos followed the gunfire. At first, some at the scene mistook the shots and law enforcement response for a routine disaster drill.

    Dorothy Vong, a nurse who was working in a nearby building, captured the tension in a video.

    As law enforcement officials sprinted toward the scene, someone can be heard saying, “Oh, that is scary.”

    “They’re all geared up!” someone else says. “Rifles and everything!”

    In the background, someone laughs. Then the reality sets in.

    Carlos Ortiz’s son Kevin Ortiz was shot twice in the leg and once in the shoulder.

    Carlos Ortiz, 54, was among a dozen people holding hands in a prayer circle outside Arrowhead Regional Medical Center, where numerous victims were taken.

    “Kevin called me immediately after he got shot and said ‘I’ve been shot three times, Dad. I’m in pain. Don’t worry. There’s a policeman with me.’”

    Seconds later, the phone call ended.

    Kathy Hotetz, 37, waited anxiously outside the same hospital for word of her sister Denise Peraza’s condition. Peraza, 27, was shot once.

    “She’s alive,” Hotetz said. “That’s all I know. Not knowing any more than that is the scariest part.”

    A short time later, Peraza called her sister from her hospital bed, and gave a grueling account of the attack.

    She said the doors opened and two men dressed in all black wearing face masks entered with “big ol' guns” and started shooting.

    “Everyone dropped to the floor,” Peraza told her relatives. “The guys opened fired for 30 seconds, randomly, then paused to reload and began firing again.”

    Peraza was hiding under a desk when she was struck in the lower back. After the attackers left, the scene was silent for about five minutes. Then the doors swung open again, and a swarm of police officers entered the room.

    Closer to the shooting scene, dozens of people spent hours hiding in their workplaces.

    Fred Henning was holed up inside the paralegal’s office where he works with his wife, about a block from the scene of the shooting. Henning said they were standing outside as helicopters swooped overhead.

    “We just came inside because it could be stray bullets, who knows?” Henning said.

    The block where the shooting took place is home to a number of businesses, Henning said, including a three-building complex that houses his office and about 140 others.

    Lynn Spicer, an employee at West Tech/Webcop Interactive Systems, inside a nearby office building, said police were not allowing anyone to leave the area.

    “I just heard sirens all day, and I went out and I saw nothing but massive cops were out,” Spicer said.

    Spicer said more than 100 people were brought over from the Inland Regional building and gathered in her office complex’s parking lot.

    “It’s shocking that it’s right across the way,” Spicer said. “It’s very scary.”

    President Obama was briefed on the shooting by his Homeland Security advisor, Lisa Monaco, and asked to be updated as the situation developed.

    The president was being interviewed by CBS on Wednesday morning when news of the attack broke, and said the repeated occurrence of mass shootings shows the need for stricter gun laws in the U.S.

    "Obviously, our hearts go out to the victims and the families,” he said, according to a transcript of the interview. "The one thing we do know is that we have a pattern now of mass shootings in this country that has no parallel anywhere else in the world.”

    With nearly 670 employees, the Inland Regional Center serves those with developmental disabilities in Riverside and San Bernardino counties, according to the center’s Facebook page.

    The center has provided services to more than 30,200 people with developmental disabilities and their families for at least 40 years. The nonprofit organization serves children, adults and seniors.

    According to the center, it was “built on the foundation of three core values — independence, inclusion, and empowerment. In following these core values, we hope to help provide each individual with a service system that helps identify and eliminate barriers for individuals with developmental disabilities and their families so they can closely live a typical lifestyle.”

    The center has been in the news before.

    In 2010, parents and care providers criticized the center for ignoring children’s needs, the San Bernardino Sun reported. The center was accused of showing favoritism regarding vendor rates.

    Employees filed a civil lawsuit against the center, alleging they were retaliated against for advocating for patients, the Sun reported.

    14 dead in San Bernardino shooting; 2 suspects dead

    Last Updated Dec 2, 2015 10:17 PM EST

    SAN BERNARDINO, Calif. -- Two suspects involved in a mass shooting at a Southern California social services center, killing 14 people and wounding more than a dozen others, are dead, police say. A third possible suspect has been detained.

    San Bernardino Police Chief Jarrod Burguan said the two suspects, one male and one female, are dead after engaging in a shootout with police hours after the initial attack. The pair had been spotted in a dark SUV as police investigated a residential area near the shooting location.

    CBS News reports that one of the possible suspects is named Syed Rizwan Farook

    Police said a person was detained who was seen running near the gunbattle between the suspects and the officers. Burguan said it was not clear if that person is connected to the shooting. After the shooting, police conducted a search of the neighborhood and declared it safe.

    A police officer was injured in the gunfire with the suspects, but authorities say his injuries are non-life threatening.

    The shooting at the Inland Regional Center was the deadliest mass shooting in a nation all too familiar with them since 2012, when a man killed 26 children and adults at a school in the Newtown, Connecticut.

    U.S. official tells CBS News this is a joint investigation between the FBI and the local police until a motive can be established.

    As for a motive, there are reports that one of the shooters may have been at the building for a party, left and returned to shoot. These reports are being checked out, the official said.

    The FBI says it's a possibility that the shooting is "terrorism," though it was too early to make any definitive conclusions.

    A federal law enforcement official told CBS News' senior investigative producer Pat Milton that the two assault weapons found in suspects' SUV were AR-15 style rifles. There were also two pistols found in the SUV. Investigators are tracing the weapons to determine if they were legally purchased, where and when.

    Each of the dead suspects were dressed in actual tactical clothing and each had multiple magazines of ammunition attached to the military style clothing that they were wearing.

    The official said that a piece of metal pipe was thrown from the SUV while the chase was underway but that proved not to be an explosive device.

    The suspects were "loaded with magazines for a gunfight," Meredith Davis, a spokeswoman with ATF, told CBS Los Angeles.

    Burguan also said at a news conference Wednesday evening that authorities found what they believe is an explosive device at the Inland Regional Center. Bomb squads were working on it.

    Milton reports that the contents of the explosive device found at the scene of the shooting is being analyzed for content and construction by bomb techs.

    Meanwhile, police are serving a search warrant on a home in Redlands, California, in connection with the shooting. Law enforcement officers are calling for people to come to the front door of a home there.

    One of them called out: "This is the FBI." Officers in riot gear, a bomb squad unit and armored vehicles are outside Wednesday night. They appear to have brought in robot devices. It's unclear if anyone is inside the home.

    City spokesman Carl Baker says Redlands police are assisting San Bernardino police in the search connected to the San Bernardino shooting.

    Burguan said upwards of 14 people were killed and 18 injured in the shooting. The number of fatalities are subject to change.
    Several hundred others were in building at the time and not injured.

    The Inland Regional Center provides social services for children and adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities.

    The attack took place in a conference area where the San Bernardino County Department of Public Health was renting space to hold a banquet, said Marybeth Feild, president and CEO of the center. She said the building houses at least 25 employees as well as a library and conference center.

    "48 Hours" Crimesider reporter Erin Donaghue spoke with Sandra Wood, interim executive director of the Inland Empire Lighthouse for the Blind, a school for visually impaired adults located about 200 feet from the Center. She said she was on the second floor of her building around 11:15 this morning when she heard what sounded like automatic gunfire. She said she heard about 25 to 30 rounds, followed by more gunfire. "You could tell the person stopped and re-loaded and started again," Wood said.

    Terry Petit says he got a text from his daughter saying she was hiding after gunfire erupted at the social services facility in Southern California where she works. Petit choked back tears Wednesday as he read the texts for reporters outside Inland Regional Center.

    "People shot. In the office waiting for cops. Pray for us. I am locked in an office."
    Police searched people filing out of a building with their hands up before they reunited with loved ones. Other people were seen being wheeled away on gurneys.

    Paul Lacroix said his son was able to escape after gunfire erupted. Lacroix told reporters Wednesday that his son texted him and told him alarms started going off and they got word there was shooting.

    He said his son was sheltered with a group of people before they managed to get out. Lacroix said his son and colleagues were ordered to exit with their arms up and nothing in their hands.

    California Gov. Jerry Brown says the shooting is a brutal attack in a statement that "California will spare no effort in bringing these killers to justice." The governor was scheduled to light the Capitol Christmas tree Wednesday evening, but his office said the ceremony will be canceled.

    President Obama has been briefed by his Homeland Security Advisor Lisa Monaco about the shooting and has asked to be updated on the situation as it develops.

    "We don't know that much yet" about the circumstances in San Bernardino, Mr. Obama said in an interview Wednesday afternoon with CBS News' Norah O'Donnell.

    "The one thing we do know is that we have a pattern now of mass shootings in this country that has no parallel anywhere else in the world," he continued.

    Stores, office buildings and at least one school were locked down in the city of 214,000 people about 60 miles east of Los Angeles.

    am confused. I am hearing there was a training exercise near the shooting, there are 50 ambulances lined up, helicopters coming & going but the 4 area hospital have reportedly only received about 4 injured. With that many ambulances & copper traffic there should be a lot more in the ER. Could it be the news is mixing up the training exercise with the shooting????

    SAN BERNARDINO, Calif. (AP) — Authorities on Thursday were trying to learn why a couple left behind their infant daughter and carried out a rampage that left 14 people dead and seriously wounded more than a dozen others in one of the nation's worst mass shootings.

    The pair were killed in a shootout with police hours after they carried out their precision assault. The possible motive for the attack included workplace violence or terrorism.

    Wednesday's shooting happened at a social services center for the disabled where the gunman's colleagues with the San Bernardino County Department of Public Health were renting space for a celebration. It was the nation's deadliest mass shooting since the attack at a school in Newtown, Connecticut, three years ago that left 26 children and adults dead.

    San Bernardino Police Chief Jarrod Burguan identified one dead attacker as Syed Rizwan Farook, 28, the other as Tashfeen Malik, 27, his wife or fiancee. Burguan said Farook was born in the United States; the chief said he did not know Malik's background.

    Police and federal agents for a second day searched a home in neighboring Redlands, about 7 miles from the massacre at Inland Regional Center. A black sedan parked outside was also searched early Thursday. The home is where officers initially saw a vehicle matching the description of the attackers' SUV in the hours before the final gunbattle that killed them. A bomb squad on Wednesday swept the home with robots.

    Police didn't immediately say if the couple lived at the home. Public records show it is a possible residence of a family member of Farook.

    Residents told KABC-TV Redlands is a sleepy little town and expressed shock that the killers might be their neighbors.

    The attackers invaded the center about 60 miles east of Los Angeles around 11 a.m., opening fire in a conference area where county health officials were having an employee banquet, said Marybeth Feild, president and CEO of the nonprofit center.

    "They came prepared to do what they did, as if they were on a mission," Burguan said.

    Farook attended the event before leaving — and returning to kill.

    Co-worker Patrick Baccari said he was sitting at the same table as Farook, who suddenly disappeared, leaving his coat on his chair. Baccari said when the shooting started, he sought refuge in a bathroom and suffered minor wounds from shrapnel slicing through the wall.

    Baccari described Farook as reserved and said he showed no signs of unusual behavior. Earlier this year he traveled to Saudi Arabia and returned with a wife, later growing a beard, Baccari said.

    The FBI is investigating several possible motives, including workplace violence and terrorism, according to David Bowdich, assistant director of the bureau's Los Angeles office. He did not elaborate.

    Farook was a restaurant inspector for the health department, according to public records. Police chief Burguan said he had been a county employee for five years.

    The couple dropped off their 6-month-old daughter with relatives Wednesday morning, saying they had a doctor's appointment, Hussam Ayloush, executive director of the Council on American-Islamic Relations, said after talking with family. Farhan Khan, who is married to Farook's sister, told reporters he last spoke to his brother-in-law about a week ago. He said he was in shock, condemned the violence, and had "absolutely no idea why he would do this."

    About four hours after the morning carnage, police hunting for the killers riddled a black SUV with gunfire in a shootout 2 miles from the social services center in this Southern California city of 214,000 people. Farook and Malik were found with assault rifles and semi-automatic handguns, and were wearing "assault-style clothing" with ammunition attached, authorities said.

    Television news helicopters captured the aftermath, as officers slowly approached the mangled SUV.

    In the morning, as the day's first bursts of gunfire echoed through the large three-building complex, some people locked themselves in offices, desperately waiting for police and texting or making hushed phone calls to loved ones.

    "People shot. In the office waiting for cops. Pray for us. I am locked in an office," Terry Petit's daughter, who works at the center, texted him.

    Petit choked back tears as he read his daughter's words for reporters outside the center, where social workers find jobs, housing and transportation and provide other services to people with disabilities such as autism, cerebral palsy and epilepsy.

    Olivia Navarro said her daughter, Jamile Navarro, a case manager at the social service center, called her and whispered that she was hiding in a locked room.

    "I said, 'All right, I'll be there, turn off the lights, don't make a sound,'" Navarro said. "And that was it."

    Her daughter survived.

    That the violence happened at a place dedicated to helping people with developmental disabilities — even if they were not targeted — made it even harder for some to comprehend.

    "These are all disabled kids, very disabled," said Sherry Esquerra, who was searching for her daughter and son-in-law, both of whom work at the center. "She gets all the services she possibly could for these kids. So I just don't understand why somebody would come in and start shooting."

    According to its web page, the center has a client base of more than 30,000 people and their families. It is a privately run nonprofit, the largest of its kind in California with about 670 employees.

    FBI agents and other law enforcement authorities converged on the center and searched room to room for the attackers. Triage units were set up outside, and people were wheeled away on stretchers.

    Seventeen people were wounded, according to authorities. Ten were hospitalized in critical condition, and three were in serious condition, Fire Chief Tom Hannemann said.

    Others were marched from the building, hands raised so police could search them and make sure the attackers weren't trying to slip out.

    They had indeed escaped. One witness, Glenn Willwerth, who runs a business across the street, said he heard 10 to 15 shots and then saw an SUV with tinted windows pull out "very calmly, very slowly" and drive off.

    As the manhunt dragged on, stores, office buildings and schools were locked down in the city, and roads blocked off.

    With police looking for a dark SUV, officers staking out a home in the nearby city of Redlands saw a vehicle matching that description. Public records show the home is a possible residence of a family member of Farook.

    Authorities pursued the SUV, and a gunbattle erupted around 3 p.m. One officer among nearly two dozen involved in the shootout suffered a minor injury.

    A fake bomb — a metal pipe stuffed with cloth — was thrown from the SUV during the chase, said Agent Meredith Davis of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives.

    Three explosive devices — thought to be real and all connected to one another — were found at the social service center and later detonated by a bomb squad, police said.

    A third person who was spotted running near the gunbattle was detained, but Burguan said it was unclear if that person had anything to do with the crime. At a late-night news conference, Burguan also said that early witness accounts of three shooters were probably wrong: "We are reasonably confident at this point that we have two shooters and we have two dead suspects."

    President Barack Obama urged the country to take steps to reduce mass shootings, including stricter gun laws and stronger background checks. "The one thing we do know is that we have a pattern now of mass shootings in this country that has no parallel anywhere else in the world," Obama told CBS.

    Federal authorities said that the two assault rifles and two handguns used in the violence were purchased legally, but they haven't said how and when they got into the hands of the two shooters.

    The social services center has two large buildings that require a badge to get in, said Sheela Stark, a member of its board of trustees. However, the conference room that hosts public events such as Wednesday's banquet is usually left open when visitors are expected.

    California Terrorists Were Married Hardcore Jihadists Who Left Baby Daughter To Commit Mass Murder

    Jim Hanson of the Center For Security Policy has stated that he’s confirming that a man named Syed Farook is a suspect or involved in the mass shooting in California today. He’s also confirming that this is an international ISIS terror attack. There’s a strong connection with this group of terrorists and ISIS. THIS IS HIS PROFESSIONAL OPINION – He’s an expert on terrorism and has great connections with other terror experts. The law enforcement sources are saying this is not an international incident but the jihadists really don’t have to be connected to ISIS. They can just be people who believe in radical jihad. These people (a man and a woman) were dressed in black tactical gear and were armed with long guns and pistols. It’s very similar to other foreign terror attacks. Thank goodness for the police training going on right down the street. This could have been much worse if they hadn’t arrived so quickly.

    This is surgical and planned just like past ISIS attacks. As you’ll see below, ISIS wasted no time in celebrating the horror:

    It appears as though the FBI is holding off on telling the American people that this is terror but two clues tell us it is in fact a terror investigation:

    First, they were on the scene very early on and were taking control of the investigation.

    Secondly, the fact that the FBI spokesperson said they wouldn’t rule out terrorism tells us that this is in fact terror. The FBI would not waste any time if they thought this was just a crazy shooter.

    You can bet they’re being very careful but the signs and key experts are pointing to terror.
    http://This is surgical and planned ...ng the horror:

    Farook’s father spoke about his son:

    “He was very religious. He would go to work, come back, go to pray, come back. He’s Muslim.”

    ISIS IS THRILLED:

    ISIS extremists began celebrating the mass shooting in San Bernardino hours after the massacre, creating the hashtag #America_Burning as police hunted for as many as three shooters, Vocativ discovered. The Islamic State, however, did not take credit for the shootings in the ghoulish postings.

    “Three lions made us proud. They are still alive,” one ISIS adherent tweeted in Arabic after the shootings at Inland Regional Center in San Bernardino. “California streets are full with soldiers with heavy weapons. The Unites States is burning #America_Burning #Takbir”

    “God is great and he the one to be praised for that,” another supporter posted in the forum in Arabic. “This is hell with god’s will.” But the hashtag was primarily used on Twitter where one ISIS extremist taunted the United States with a tweet that read “Let America know a new era #California #America_burning.”

    Another ISIS supporter posted in reference to the shooting on Twitter, “God is the greatest. May god spread fear in the homes of the Crusaders.”

    "California is known to have some of the most strict gun control laws in the United States, however, in his first statement on the attack President Obama pounced on the opportunity to call for stricter gun control laws"

    San Bernardino Shooters Confirmed As Islamic Terrorists
    The two shooters that took the lives of 14 innocent, unarmed civilians yesterday in San Bernardino, California have been identified as an Islamic Man and his wife who recently returned from Saudi Arabia. We won’t be giving them the satisfaction of naming the cowards in this article.

    December 3, 2015


    Details of the attack show that this was planned well in advance.

    Dressed in tactical gear and toting AR-15 rifles, (REDACTED), 28, and (REDACTED), 27, burst into a San Bernardino social services facility and shot up a conference room where Farook’s employer, the county health department, was hosting a holiday party. The pair escaped in a black SUV after the attack, which authorities said was over within minutes, only to resurface four hours later and less than two miles away in a fierce gun battle on the city’s main drag.

    “They came prepared to do what they did, as if they were on a mission,” San Bernardino Police Chief Jarrod Burguan said.

    Farook, who Burguan said was born in the U.S. and had worked at the San Bernardino County Department of Public Health for five years, was described by co-workers as a “devout” Muslim, whom is believed to have lived in nearby Redlands. The nationality of Malik, who reportedly recently had a baby with Farook, was not identified. Family members told The Associated Press the couple was married.

    Law enforcement officials said late Wednesday they could not rule out terrorism as a possible motive. The FBI’s Joint Terrorism Task Force was aiding in the investigation.

    A law enforcement source told Fox News that the couple were each carrying an AR-15 rifle and a pistol when they were shot and killed by police after a brief chase in their black SUV about 2 miles from the initial shooting site. The source said the vehicle also contained so-called “rollout bags” with multiple pipe bombs, as well as additional ammunition. The couple also had GoPro cameras strapped to their body armor and wore tactical clothing, including vests stuffed with ammunition magazines.

    “That’s a military tactic for a sustained fight,” the source told Fox New of the rollout bags.

    In addition to the explosives found at the SUV, authorities discovered and detonated three pipe bombs late Wednesday at the Inland Regional Center, the complex where the initial shooting took place about 60 miles east of Los Angeles.

    Another source described a house in Redlands that was being searched in connection with the shooting as “an IED facility.” The source said investigators discovered multiple pipe bombs in the house, as well as small explosives that were strapped to remote-controlled cars.

    A co-worker of the man who led the cowardly attack said that the male shooter had traveled to Saudi Arabia earlier this year, returned with his wife, and later grew a beard. ISIS social media outlets are already praising the two shooters, calling them “Lions”, and starting an Arabic hashtag for “America is burning.”

    California is known to have some of the most strict gun control laws in the United States, however, in his first statement on the attack President Obama pounced on the opportunity to call for stricter gun control laws assuming, and hoping this was another case of “workplace violence.” It’s clear that the mainstream media is going to try and support this narrative, as CNN’s headline highlights that the shooters were only “Husband and wife”, and claim that their motives are still unknown.

    This was not work place violence. This was a planned Islamic terrorist attack on U.S. soil.

    The fact that President Obama is already trying to sweep this under the rug, and brush it off as just an angry set of office mates taking out their frustration, all because of how “easy” it is to get guns in the U.S. is sickening. However, it’s much easier for this administration to chalk this up as another “mass shooting” to support their anti-gun agenda, rather than admit we just witnessed another act of war on our home soil and actually have to do something about it.

    The government is not making any efforts to protect you from these attacks at home, and if they are, they are failing. The safety of yourself and your family is your responsibility alone, do not trust that the government will save you with more laws and firearm restrictions.
