Active shooter reported near a Planned Parenthood clinic

Active shooter reported near a Planned Parenthood clinic in Colorado

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. -- Police were responding Friday to a report of an active shooter near a Planned Parenthood clinic in Colorado Springs.

The situation has not been stabilized, police Lt. Catherine Buckley said. She had no further details.

Ambulances and police vehicles were lined up near an intersection and police told people via Twitter to stay away from the "active shooter scene" because it was not secure.

Planned Parenthood is a women's health care provider that provides abortions at some of its clinics.

Gunman wounds two cops and several others outside Planned Parenthood clinic in Colorado Springs

A gunman opened fire Friday afternoon at a Planned Parenthood clinic in Colorado.

Police said the gunman shot at passing cars from the parking lot of a clinic in Colorado Springs, reported KRDO-TV.

The shooter was reported about 11:45 a.m. local time.

A police officer said the gunman shot out the rear window of his patrol car as he drove past to “get a look at him.”

Dispatchers said the gunman was wearing a long coat and a hunting-style hat.

“The area is NOT secure,” police said in a tweet.

One police officer was shot in the hand, and a second officer suffered unspecified injuries in the shooting.

Multiple other shooting victims have been reported, although no additional details are available.

The gunman has barricaded himself inside the clinic, police said.

At least a dozen police officers are at the scene and engaged in a standoff with the gunman.

Streets near the clinic have been shut down.

Well, it's not like this makes the people against Planned Parenthood look more insane than the already are...

I hope everyone gets out of it ok. Hopefully they'll bag this bastard soon. I'd love to see their justification for this.

Sounds like someone's been playing too much GTA

But honestly this doesn't sound that bad. Of course wishing nothing but total recovery for all injured, but it doesn't sound like he's actually killing anyone, just shooting at them and hitting a few people.

Their plan right now is to kill him as quickly as possibly. If there is a justification it wont be coming out of his mouth.

Do they care? When Dr. Tiller was murdered, they basically said he deserved it.

We don't tend to learn anything about the gunman's motives until well after these things are over.

They don't, but if ever there was a group that I had no problem vilifying, it's these folks.

I just like having plenty of reasons to do it.

For it to be murder, it would have to be illegal.
For anyone wondering, I joined this website during my edgy teenage years. I made a lot of dumb, awkward posts, flip-flopped between various extreme ideologies, and just generally embarrassed myself. I denounce a sizable amount of my past posts. I am no longer active on NationStates and this nation/account is no longer used.

Yes, it's still murder, because it's still a human being that you're killing.
