New shooting in California (FRESNO shooting 4/18)

Just breaking:

Three shot in Fresno, CA when man went on shooting spree downtown Fresno.

I am on my phone and can’t link the story, but is at the top of Fox.

The man shouted Aloha Snackbar as he was tackled by police. Any guesses on what his name is?

Just another case of ‘workplace violence’ by a radical islamic terroris… i mean peaceful muslim.

Nothing to see here, move along.

So sad for the victims and glad they caught the guy quickly before he could do more damage. I fear these types of attacks are going to become more and more commonplace on our own soil.

“Three people were killed after a man went on a shooting spree in downtown Fresno, California on Tuesday while shouting “God is great” in Arabic.” http://www.foxnews.com/us/2017/04/18/fresno-shooting-spree-3-people-killed-suspect-in-custody.html

Kind of weird, not everyone knows that allahu ackbar translates to “god is great”, and without that explicit connection, it’s as if Fox is pushing an interpretation of the events from a radical muslim to just a regular muslim?

And since it’s Ca. we can look forward to years of trial time, and when he maybe, just maybe gets the death penalty we can look forward to him dying of old age on death row.

Well thats unfortunate.

Hate crime. The article also said he said he “hates white people”. Sounds racist to me.

Oh wait, only white men can be racist. Where’s my thinking…

“Reverse” racism

If one reads that Fox link closely, you will find the chief’s comment:

“What we know is that this was a random act of violence,” Dyer said.

Just a random act of violence. The fact the he picked only white victims, yelled that phrase and said he hated white people were just coincidence.

You know, I was really hoping that once Trump took office we could dispense with this politically correct BS.

Maybe if these a**holes start rocking ISIS t-shirts when they go martyr mode people will call it what it is. But probably not.

Either way, it’s unfortunate but not the least bit surprising.

Hater.

Lemme axe you a question: if a white man killed several people of color and as he was arrested he was heard yelling “Our Lord Jesus Christ is our savior!” would you just say “Aw, he’s some nut”. Or would you say “See, he’s one of them there Christian White Supremacists”? I’ll bet I know the answer.

When was the last time someone shouted that before killing a bunch of people? Last time someone yelled Allah Akbar and killed a bunch of people? Every few seconds every day.

Oh I agree wholeheartedly. Just that some folks here consistently seem to have a leftward slant to how they perceive things. If the boogeyman is on the “right” side of the line, well it must be some racist/Islamophobic/nationalist hater. When the boogeyman stands on the “left” side of the line “Jeez, do we have to jump to conclusions so soon?” Forget the obvious. Nah, gotta cut 'em some slack!

I find this whole quote entertaining.

reckon it was a mormon or a Buddhist ?

cant be a muslim they are peaceful and not the problem

Definitely Amish.

Every day our lords and masters assure us that they have this stuff under control, and every day they are proven, once more, to be lying.

It was random. He shot 3 random white people

I believe the pot just called the kettle black without even blushing.

Fresno shooter wanted to kill many white people, police say

Kori Ali Muhammad, 39, was arrested shortly after the morning rampage that left three white men dead, police said. Muhammad, who is black, fired 16 rounds in less than two minutes at four places within a block, shooting men who appeared to be going about their day, authorities say.

During his arrest, Muhammad shouted “Allahu Akbar,” but Fresno Police Chief Jerry Dyer said the shootings had “nothing to do with terrorism in spite of the statement he made.”

“This is solely based on race,” Dyer told reporters.[/b]

Well if the good chief is not going with the radical islamic terror shtick then at least he could go with four counts of hate crimes on top of the murder charges . . .

Muhammad was charged in 2005 with possessing cocaine with intent to distribute, court records show. Federal prosecutors said at the time that he was also in possession of a 9mm semi-automatic handgun and two rifles after being convicted of a felony.

He claimed insanity, and his attorney requested a psychiatric examination for his client, saying Muhammad “appeared eccentric with some bizarre beliefs.” A psychiatrist who examined Muhammad believed he had psychosis, Muhammad’s attorney said in the court filing.

He also “suffered auditory hallucinations and had at least two prior mental health hospitalizations,” according to court documents. His attorney said that Muhammad had “paranoia” and thought the justice system and his defense attorney were conspiring against him, court papers said.

I see his attorney in the past has already played the insanity defense game.
