COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. — The suspect accused of opening fire inside an LGBTQ bar in Colorado Springs, Colorado, has been praised by online extremists who have called for copycat attacks, according to a Department of Homeland Security bulletin made public Wednesday.
"Following the late November shooting at an LGBTQI+ bar in Colorado Springs, Colorado -- which remains under investigation -- we have observed actors on forums known to post racially or ethnically motivated violent extremist content praising the alleged attacker, the latest National Terrorism Advisory System bulletin , dated Nov. 30 says.
"Threat actors have recently mobilized to violence, citing factors such as reactions to current events and adherence to violent extremist ideologies. In the coming months, threat actors could exploit several upcoming events to justify or commit acts of violence, including certifications related to the midterm elections, the holiday season and associated large gatherings, the marking of two years since the breach of the U.S.
The bulletin also mentions threats to the Jewish community, and perceptions of government overreach. The official added the Jewish community"seems particularly targeted" in recent days. John Cohen, the former acting head of intelligence at DHS said the bulletin serves as a reminder of the threats that the country faces.
