Four police officers and an unknown number of civilians have been hurt in an "active shooter" incident in the US city of Colorado Springs, police say.
Officers were exchanging fire with a gunman inside a Planned Parenthood clinic, police Lt Catherine Buckley said.
It was unclear if hostages had been taken, she said.
The city's Penrose hospital said it had received six patients, but did not say whether they were civilians or police.
The situation was still active and roads were closed, the city's police said in a tweet.
"We do not have the shooter at this point but we do have all of our resources brought to bear," Lt Buckley told local TV.

Yes, apparently 10 commandments are too many for long term memory, and even the single commandment in the second edition is kinda hard to get.
But, if someone had been using abortion as a bargaining item, and someone else has been driven mad by the situation, I do not feel much sympathy for the intended victims (hey, blame my programming).

How about blaming your parents for brainwashing you with religion and imaginary commandments ?

I am not religious, when I point out the breach of protocol represented by not following a commandment. AI could do it.
You are religious, when you call the commandments imaginary.
Every statement made in the domain of a hypothetical deity is religion. It's surely not science, for the simple reason that the domain of a deity is not observable, and even if it were, you could not prove your observation is genuine. Also you can't safely apply any concept you learned in this universe outside of it, including the term "therefore", because the logic system you are accustomed to merely models the world, doesn't dictate anything over or outside of it.
What I wrote has been proved here, on /., and who knows in how many places and is high school level reasoning.
All atheism should do is choosing not to believe.

That most high schoolers and beyond cannot seem to grasp, since they possess mediocre or worse intelligence and are products of a terrible education system. I always find it funny when someone says that it's trivial to understand X when they live in a society of morons where few people do understand X.
