Sefton: sefton at cutjibnewsletter.com | Update: Alton Nolen Was in the "Process of Being Terminated"As Allah notes, this is a classic trigger for workplace murders, having nothing to do with religion. When I say "the process of being terminated," I mean that in specific present tense: He was actually being fired in the very minutes before his rampage. That doesn't mean religion doesn't have anything to do with this -- Why was he being fired? Was it due to his attempts to convert co-workers while on the job? And his choice of manner of murder is suggestive. However, it should be said that the motive here is not clear. I suspect a mixture of motives -- sudden distress plus certain thoughts already lurking around his brain -- but we don't know that yet. Signature: Why behead the woman? Beheading, I imagine, is a fairly long process, requiring a lot of muscular effort. It is harder and takes longer than stabbing. It does seem to be message-sending. Or a signature. Profilers distinguish between M.O. and signature. M.O. are the steps taken to perform the crime -- and are needed to perform the crime. But "signatures" (in ritualistic murders) aren't needed to do the crime. They are done because they are important to the killer for emotional, ritual purposes. Cutting off a lock of the victim's hair, for example, is a signature. Binding a victim is usually just an M.O., if the killer wants to carry the victim off. To do so, he must tie her up. But tying her up with specific knots, like maybe those used in S&M stuff, is a signature. Not actually necessary to carry the crime out, but important to the perp for reasons that don't have to do with mere utility. The beheading seems to be that kind of thing. The crime was murder. That was easily accomplished by stabbing. The beheading was unnecessary, but obviously something important to Alton Nolen, or else why spend the time and muscle-power to do it? That seems to be a clear signature, and so the obvious question is: Why was this signature important to him? Reminder: I'm not just being an anti-Muslim Islamophobe in asking these questions. IS recently called upon the faithful to rise up and begin butchering people in America and France. In Algeria, a French national named Herve Gourdel was kidnapped and then beheaded. Now, in America, an American woman is beheaded in a frenzy-attack. Different methods -- the Algerian beheading was a group effort, and was coordinated, whereas the American beheading seems to have been what the FBI would call a "disorganized" type of attack, and seemingly impromptu -- but nevertheless, one Frenchman and one American woman beheaded, just as IS asked. These are not idle questions and they're not asked without reason.Comments(Jump to bottom of comments)1

Why to attack his boss (this wasn't his boss, right?) or someone more closely related to his firing, like HR person or co. leadership ? Posted by: Lizzy at September 26, 2014 01:01 PM (D/504) 33
My theory:
Co-workers probably went to management several times and documented their complaints against him. Management probably met with Nolan several times to counsel him with warnings about his workplace behaviour. After the final disciplinary warning failed, he was told he was being let go because of his well-documented violations of company policy. And that's when he flipped out. Sooner or later, his workplace record will get out. Posted by: EC at September 26, 2014 01:01 PM (GQ8sn) 34
From NewsOK: Several employees told police he had been trying to convert other employees to Islam. As a result of that, the Moore police has requested FBI assistance in looking to Nolen's background. I'm starting to like Oklahoma*. First the COO is armed and shoots the perp. Then the police do the obvious (to us) thing and call the FBI when it turns out he's a convert to Islam. * I'm liking the state. The first person who starts singing the musical still gets punched in the dick. Posted by: Bandersnatch at September 26, 2014 01:02 PM (JtwS4) 35
Yeah, given that he F'n DECAPITATED the woman, I think we know what motivated this SOB, regardless if one doesn't have the stones to draw the right conclusion. And I don't expect law enforcement to EVER admit that sudden jihad syndrome was as much a motivating factor as any thing else regarding this crime. The DOJ still claims that the terrorist attack in Ft. Hood TX was nothing more than an unfortunate example of "work place violence", so why does anyone expect they will get to the truth on this one?

indeed. this seems to take a lot more work than simply killing the victim.
Remember: he was fired by HR in another office building, away from the building where he ultimately killed the woman and was shot. So this is definitely pre-meditated. He was fired in one location, drove to another, and then attempted to kill as many as he could. I'm venturing to guess, he had people already in mind when he killed. Maybe that woman who was beheaded as his first target was the one who he thought filed the complaint. Posted by: EC at September 26, 2014 01:08 PM (GQ8sn) 74

48 Sudden Jihadi Syndrome.
Pfizer should make a pill. And commercials. Some people have had changes in behavior, hostility, agitation, depressed mood, suicidal thoughts or actions while using JIHADI-X to help them quit beheading. Some people had these symptoms when they began taking JIHADI-X, and others developed them after several weeks of treatment or after stopping JIHADI-X. If you, your family, or caregiver notice agitation, hostility, depression, or changes in behavior, thinking, or mood that are not typical for you, or you develop suicidal thoughts or actions, anxiety, panic, aggression, anger, mania, abnormal sensations, hallucinations, paranoia, or confusion, stop taking JIHADI-X and call your doctor right away. Also tell your doctor about any history of depression or other mental health problems before taking JIHADI-X, as these symptoms may worsen while taking JIHADI-X.

While firings/passed over for promotions/etc. often trigger workplace violence, most people don't go through the trouble of beheading someone when they go postal as it were.
Indeed, often it's one of two things, either a) you go for as much carnage as possible prior to offing yourself or b) you target someone in particular killing anything in your way. This guy (based on early reports) opted for c: targeting no one specifically (per Allah's link) but also apparently taking time to kill someone in a way that takes longer than just a few seconds (unless the OK police are overstating what actually happened.) Now that doesn't completely tip the evidence, but I think it at least implies this dude was shaded by the whole "behead the infidels" thing.

Something like a beheading is clearly rooted in this guys fanatical religion. I really don't buy into the whole idea of moderate Muslims. The religion itself is the problem, all one has to do is read passages of the Koran and it becomes clear what it's all about. Amazing how in this day and age, the media will give more respect and deference to a Muslim than an Evangelical Christian. Posted by: McAdams at September 26, 2014 01:10 PM (cfpiy) 93

Ace, It's been a while since I've taken psych, but IIRC, people who tend to leave signatures do so out of a compulsion. Taking a lock of hair for example is about keeping a trophy. If the "Beheading" was a signature then there'd be a particular reason for it in the crazy guy's mind. Given the current associations with beheading, I can come up with only 1 reason. If I stretch, I might be able to get 2. Posted by: tsrblke, PhD(c) And father to be in 4 months! at September 26, 2014 01:12 PM (HDwDg) 105

Ace,
As far as motive goes- Remember this clown was trying to convert people to islam. This is part of the jihadi procedure in theory. Offer the infidel a chance to convert to islam - if they don't you may kill them. Or charge them a jizya, the tax on infidels for the pleasure of living in islamic lands, which this guy wasn't going to get so- stabby and sawwy it is. He may have been planning something like this for a long time. firing was just a convenient excuse to get choppy with the reluctant infidels.

A dollar says he was a pot smoker. It seems that is one thing all of the rampagers have in common from Columbine to Gabby Giffords.
One out of xxxxx users has a psychotic reaction to pot. I have looked and looked and found pot smoking in common with all of them. Self medicating? Perhaps. Perhaps it is just recreational. Either way, pot use is something they all have in common (along with progressive liberal based ideologies being pursued and proselytized by a vast majority of them) triggers something else and makes it worse.

Radical Lutherans: during WWI, virtually all German Lutheran congregations began holding their services in English only, so as not to attract too much attention. Any church bulletin or newspaper published in a foreign language had to submit a copy in advance before it could be "entered as Second Class matter."
Very few German-language services returned after the Wilson Terror ended. And nobody can say that German Lutherans in America weren't arrogant and superior. Muslims, take note. The President really looks up to Wilson. You could at least do the courtesy of issuing fatwas in English. Posted by: Stringer Davis at September 26, 2014 01:27 PM (xq1UY) 179

I only recall ever hearing about ONE beheading here in Western New York. IIRC, the media tried hard not to mention it, but yeah, it was some sort of Muslim honor killing (the victim was the guy's wife). It's been awhile, so I'm fuzzy on the details, but I think the guy was in the process of starting some sort of new media enterprise intended to improve the image of the Muslim community. Sometimes it would really be a good thing if you take your work home with you, I guess.

I agree with earlier posters. One of these monsters will overreach, killing schoolchildren or something, and the backlash will be hideously ugly -- and exactly what they asked for. When that tolerance is gone ... it won't be good for anyone.
Posted by: acethepug at September 26, 2014 01:23 PM (4dRdB) No. OK, let's imagine the scene you postulate happens - Jimmy Jihad slaughters a bus full of children, all of it uploaded to You Tube. What happens next? - the local mosque armors up and whines about a non-existent backlash; - the police do 24 / 7 patrols on the mosque property to protect it; - a "healing vigil" is held downtown, with candles and pictures of the children. Speeches are made about the peaceful nature of "true" Islam by ministers and rabbis, but, oddly, the local imam isn't present; - any parents ready to lynch the local Mahomets are either talked out of it by "sensible" companions or, because the police are keeping them under watch, are resigned to letting the justice system "work." - local politicians and TV heads fall all over themselves to psychologically beat down the parents of the children with the "Islam is peace" nonsense, so that the parents who want revenge will feel isolated and impotent. . . .and Johnny Jihad gets his halal meals in prison and is a hero to the inmates. If 9/11 didn't make Americans raze every damned mosque in this country to the ground, there is nothing that ever will.

I'm late to the thread so someone has probably mentioned this but there are two issues here. One is that the guy had just been fired, drove off and then turned back to the plant in a rage. That's the main trigger. The beheading part is strictly Islam though and thank you I will tell you why:
My experience working with Muslims is that ultimately Kafirs are subhuman in that Islam is the Master Religion and its' practitioners are a Master Race. As subhuman it is OK to cheat them, steal from them and kill them. This is strict Koran talk now. When a Muslim works for the Kafir here in the land of war he has to pretend to be subservient to the infidel which eats at the true believer. Just burns them up. You would be surprised at how many Muslims get along fine with coworkers of other religions but have a business card that says "SoA"--"Soldier of Allah" on it somewhere. Really, it is quite common. It actually means something. According to my theory this guy was fed up being treated badly by the kafir and when actually fired went all jihadi on everyone. I stand by my theory.

MPPP, I think a tipping point IS coming. There is a lot of unrest, our current so-called President is, if not a Muslim outright, certainly more concerned with them than with his fellow countrymen.
Whatever faults GW Bush had, and there were many, he didn't treat said countrymen with the disdain Obama does. And we DID go to war over 9/11, even if we maybe didn't break enough stuff and were foolish enough to "nation-build," but I think the overall attitude of the country is different. Obama is a failure by any measurable metric, and he clearly has NOT kept the US safe the same way GW Bush did after 9/11. Even if I am wrong, leave me to my illusions. Let me think there are people who care. I HAVE to believe there are. That being said, I do worry, very much, that you are right. That the media stranglehold, the hands-out-for-freebies FSA, and the professional grievance-mongers like Obama and Holder will win the day. But I HAVE to hope. Posted by: acethepug at September 26, 2014 01:37 PM (4dRdB) 217
Here's my speculation on the matter:
The guy already had a violent record. I'm betting he probably had an issue with "women", especially those who might have some authority over him. He had previously assaulted a female trooper who was trying to arrest him. I suspect that the woman he beheaded had some role in his firing; perhaps she was his supervisor. He flies into a predictable rage while being fired (based on his violent history). Goes after the female. He's a recent convert to Islam. Probably of the radical/woman-are-inferior variety. He's aware of the call to behead infidels made by ISIS. That's where the beheading ON TOP OF the killing comes from. It all adds up. Posted by: Tex Lovera at September 26, 2014 01:37 PM (wtvvX) 218

I think with 9/11, it was almost a sense of shock and the average American really had not seen the horrors of radical Islam.
Our big "enemy" for the last half century had been Communism. This was something we really did not understand and hadn't seen in our face like Israel had. I know this, if the US had a Palestinian problem like Israel did with say a neighboring country that liked to shoot rockets at us and routinely use suicide bombers on civilian targets, we would have wiped them off the face of the Earth a long time ago, no matter what the Elites tried to tell us.

The only way I could see any sort of backlash - and even then it would be half-hearted - would be if the victims were those whose Leftist and elitist credentials the MFM couldn't ignore: a Clinton, a Chris Matthews, a Bloomberg. Then you might see mosques put under severe surveillance and travel controls effected, but so long as victims are the Unpeople of Jesusland - in other words, us - there will never be retaliation.

196 I only recall ever hearing about ONE beheading here in Western New York. IIRC, the media tried hard not to mention it, but yeah, it was some sort of Muslim honor killing (the victim was the guy's wife).
That guy was from Lackawanna, or very near to Lackawanna. Home of the Lackawanna 6 terror cell that was busted up post-9/11. Lackawanna, our own Mini-Dearbornistan here in WNY. Posted by: Citizen X at September 26, 2014 01:49 PM (7ObY1) 259

Coexistence with radical muslims doesn't seem possible. They carve out an ever-growing region of the planet where Christians, Jews, atheists and all non-muslims are banned. At the same time, they invade the West in ever-growing numbers, using the political system of the West to ban criticism of Islam and openly advocate murder of non-Muslims. All while repeatedly launching terror attack against us.
Meanwhile we can't even draw a cartoon of Muhammad without fear of losing our jobs or even lives. It's incredibly frustrating. The West seems to only ever retreat in the face of Islam. Posted by: Costanza Defense at September 26, 2014 01:56 PM (ZPrif) 298
"One day Islam is going to go past the point of no return and no finger wagging is going to stop the blow back."
I'm not sure how many of us fit that prediction anymore. Between 1945 and 1975ish Old Europe turned into the EU. We've been about 10-20 years behind that arc. If the Republic of Texas was hit, game on, but the coastal Eloi change the equation for the US in general. Not that anyone "wants" to see it, but it would have been interesting to see what Boston's response would have been to a larger attack by an Al Qaeda style group rather than the lone gunmen Tsarnaevs. The Mass working class is more ready to rumble than the Brahmins. If NYC was hit again, same dynamic. Here in CA, we'd be too sensitive and too cool to get all Neanderthal on them - candlelight vigils and Muslim outreach is all you'd see.

I think you are misconstruing the term "backlash" to mean "violent reaction to provocation." I think there will be a backlash if the unthinkable happens (again). But it will take the form of legal impediments to Islamic centers, mosques and other facilities being built, limitations on public spectacles, decreasing Islamic Studies on campuses, etc. I honestly don't see much of a chance of violent action in this country.

The underlying issues in play on this topic are: 1) FUCK Islam means it when it says "infidel hunting licenses sold here" 2) The media, Feral Govt, and Islam are fused in trying to ignore it...O and this is my favorite part pretend the "random backlash" is so imminent they warn not to be angry with the whole for the actions of a few. If you feel I was flaming you rather than the mousetrap the left and Islam has built I apologize.....

i think that too, and I don't think the (few) commenters here who are going over the line really mean it. But people have gotten into this habit of this same mode of discourse, of sort of Travis Bickling their response to any kind of outrage. First of all, it's boring. We've seen this all before. We've seen every permutation of ONE DAY WE WILL RISE UP and the kind of revolutionary vengeance fantasy crap before. Hundreds of times. Retire the meme. It's old. Second of all, it's emotional. I don't believe these guys. I don't believe they're REALLY the kind of guys who would support this. But then I have to ask: So why are they saying it? Again, I think it's just because it's become a mode of discourse. Muslim attacks someone, we have to talk about killing three billion muslims (that was the actual figure floated in the comments several days back). It's like guys are trying to measure their dicks with one another. Please stop. this isn't as manful as some seem to think. Finally, and this is about the "manful" point: I don't see how resorting to fantasy is "manly." Seems the opposite to me. Posted by: ace at September 26, 2014 02:11 PM (/FnUH) 343

Aren't they? Posted by: ace at September 26, 2014 01:52 PM (/FnUH)" No. Look, attacking Islam does not mean burning down mosques, and killing anyone wearing a burka. It means exposing the evil inherent in the system. It means making the savages live under civilized rules underpinned by liberty and free will. It means no longer kowtowing to jackass groups like CAIR. It means finally having an honest conversation about the nature of the Islamic cult. And the media trying to shield people from these truths does nothing but engender even more suspicion. Posted by: NotCoach at September 26, 2014 02:13 PM (rsudF) 346

How many of us are treating "blow back" as random killing of innocent Muslims ? Not me. I'm talking about an end to the PC regime ala Major Hassan willful blindness to Islam's involvement, the same kind of public scorn for US Muslims supporting or justifying terror that would have been expressed in WWII re: Japan or Germany (and no, not internment or assault by mob). They'd be the enemy, not a victim group who could switch masks as they do now. A guilty until proven anti-jihadist mentality like we treated patriotic Germans and Japanese. "Insensitive," not murderous.

Until there is a price the "community" pays this will continue unabated.
Yes, I said community. This isn't some lone-wolf, mentally challenged loser who picked up a gun and shot innocent children in an act of unforgivable rage. It is a pattern that is occurring across a community. A community who has an awful lot of adherents believing this is just fine or somehow justified. This is our country and that "community" and culture is a lot more important than any particular group. And this is where I blame bending to other people's culture in the interest of being more welcoming. That is an abject failure (and foreseeable as so) for many reasons. Not the least of that being we've long since moved past a 6th or 7th century mentality. Western civilization and America in particular is exceptional for many different reasons. One of the primary being that we have built an ordered government and society based on what we've learned. It is a sort of "best-practices" derived from time and experience. It celebrates and memorializes how we have gotten there. It has taken the lesson we have learned and incorporated that into our social mores and society. Liberals want to tear that down in the interest of their parochial, utopian and therefore unachievable desires. Which is why I believe they bow to political correctness and protect people such as this. They don't like the way things are ergo they want to change it. So they deflect, demur, obfuscate and outright lie in order to keep the mendacity going. I'm a little sick of it and pretentious people like Allah who put this into cutesy, nonsensical terms in order to fit nicely into some predetermined point of view. This is nothing less than the horrific result of bending to a culture that is less civilized, more insensitive and prone to violence because not only does their society allow it, but because we show weakness and show absolutely no wisdom in the face of it.

Costanza, I'd be careful about what research controlled for preexisting problems, age, onset, and a lot of other methodology on those. Causation-correlation - the mentally ill tend to self-medicate with booze and pills, too.
I'd heed the research that cautions against pot-smoking through the teens/mentally formative years, but beyond that point there's no dividing line where you can say "substance X made me do it." Stoners need to own their behavior like anyone else. Just like drunks - if you act like that when you're drunk or high, it's buried in your "sober self" - the shit didn't make you do it.

I never advocated making the streets run with the blood of anyone... I would just settle for allowing the FBI to trace the networks involved in defacto Madrassas here in CONUS.... I agree with those above who point out reciprocity is not coming. I will go one further and predict that Obama comments on the potential for backlash if he comments at all while never pointing out what would be the underlying cause of backlash.... It's ok....I am angrier about the media bias and the continued parlor trick of my personally being responsible for every malfeasance committed by low tax economic thinkers, gun owners, and Raccoons than I am over being lectured about "don't indulge in public fantasy." Of course I do have one question.... is ISIS and Jihadi Jim in this case guilty of "indulging in public fantasy?" Posted by: sven10077@sven10077 at September 26, 2014 02:30 PM (/4AZU) 380

I think there will be a backlash if the unthinkable happens (again). But it will take the form of legal impediments to Islamic centers, mosques and other facilities being built, limitations on public spectacles, decreasing Islamic Studies on campuses, etc.
I honestly don't see much of a chance of violent action in this country. Of course there will be a tiny minority that will act illegally, but the vast majority will be content with legal remedies. Posted by: CharlieBrown'sDildo at September 26, 2014 02:03 PM (Zu3d9) THIS^^^^^ Muslims, mosques, Saudi Arabia because of the funding and support of Wahabiist mosques, recruiting in prison, etc - would all seem ripe for the same type of legal approach which took down Organized Crime. Not to mention suing for damages, emotional distress, etc from surviving relatives. Can you imagine how those trials would go? I can. There probably isn't a mosque in the country that hasn't had jihad preached in it or a sponsored men's group where violence hasn't been discussed. If muslims were treated like members of the KKK, tolerated but disdained and made into laugh stocks. A lot of the problem would go away. Of course, that assumes we stop importing muslims by the hundred thousands. What that would require is a true recognition of what islam really is. I suspect most of the frustration comes from the gov't breaking their part of the social contract by NOT protecting the public from an obvious murderous danger. In fact, they operate to make the problem within this country worse. If the law can't or won't protect you, people will protect themselves in the way they see fit. But, before the country gets to that point, I believe the legalistic approach will be used. Posted by: naturalfake at September 26, 2014 02:35 PM (KBvAm) 388

I'm not for trashing the Constitution re: Muslims any more than pogroms - just reestablishing the line where I can tell a jihad supporter to go fuck himself without concerns of "Islamophobia." He's free to express his opinion, I'm free to express mine, no violence involved. No special protected class lawsuits, no sharia-light preferential treatment, bitching over profiling, etc... Immigration-wise I do think entry and stay restrictions are in order - they're strongly resistant to assimilation and their international track record is uniquely disruptive.

#377 "Identifying the hardcore and dangerous is an incredibly difficult task. "
There's a simple litmus test that works for every single sect, cult, movement, or association. Do they reject temporal punishment for leaving the association (apostasy), disagreement, or insult to the foundations of their organisation and/or faith? If they do not - if they require the murder or assault of any who leave their "faith" or "la cosa nostra", or call for the temporal injury or death of any who insult their cult leader, their scripture, or their organization - they are not a protected association or faith at all. They are -by definition in common law - a criminal conspiracy having no protections against prosecution. Simple. Moderates don't call for someone to die for leaving their congregation. The most they should do is not invite them to play cards or come to pot luck dinners. If they call for them to die, they are a murderous mob deserving to be arrested, tried, convicted, and imprisoned. Posted by: Inspector Cussword at September 26, 2014 02:44 PM (H/OMd) 404

I want the LE agencies from local up to federal cease all cooperation and collaboration with groups like CAIR and start treating them the same way they treat Tea Party members, vets, gun owners, conservatives, GOP, etc. I want these jihadi cover groups to be audited and put under microscopes and scrutinized. I want them to profile ALL Middle Eastern looking people at the airport instead of the 4 yo toddler or the grandmother in a wheelchair.

Quran 47: 4 When you meet the unbelievers in the Jihad strike off their heads.
Yes, Mohammed was war Lord who practiced mass murder . Some parts of the Koran are lovely. However got nastier after the Jews and the Christians wouldn't accept his revelations. Anyone who wants to pretend the violence isn't there is delusional. Should we threaten or offer violence to Mosques or Muslims who are not engaging in violence?. ABSOLUTELY NOT. And we didn't after 9/11. However, America will see more of these beheadings and the media will try to cover it up. It's a really toxic mix when you have cons who had been violent before converting to Islam. So, yes it's a little bit of workplace violence but the choice of death was clearly affected by his religion. Posted by: FenelonSpoke at September 26, 2014 02:51 PM (glk59) 418

Here's some good advice:
If you work with Muslims, carry a knife. You probably can't carry a firearm but... if you can, do. You probably can't carry a non-concealable knife, like a Ka-Bar, but if you can? Yeah, do that too. You might call this prejudiced. I don't care. If that woman was armed there's a chance, however slight, that she'd still be alive. You don't hear much about Methodists doing a lot of beheading. You don't read about the local atheist who hacks someone to death after they don't convert. There aren't a lot of Hindu's, Buddhists, or even pagans who kill if you don't convert... at work... in Oklahoma. I'm not saying persecute anyone. I'm not saying that you should violate any laws or regulations. But if you work with muslims you should really consider how you are going to protect yourself and your co-workers if/when they decide to begin their own private jihad.

MSNBC site has the story: "No evidence Oklahoma beheading linked to terrorism, police say". That's the headline. Of course, the police have said no such thing. The article says sources say that the leading theory is about being fired. Sources. The police called the FBI to say "hey, will you look into the Islam angle for us?"

Thanks. That is comforting. I tend to think I am preparing myself for the worst when contingency thinking, but perhaps I am just occupying my mind with useless crap. Seems like people committed to a cause could conjur up just about anything and execute it. The left gets pretty damned rabid, so I really think the worst of the worst of them. Calling a huge group of their fellow Americans enemies and shit is way over the top. Then they demand that those same people cease the "violent rhetoric" and all that. Sorry for veering that far off topic, cuz really, we are talking about THE ENEMY here, not liberal progressives. So, there are jihadi sleeper cells here, right? Assuming so, what can we do? Observe as safely as possible until we're pretty sure and then call someone? Who do we call? What about lone wolf jihadis? Sure wish I had a checklist or something. A "things to look for" and "what do do if this this this this, and this" kind of thing. Posted by: i like anchors at September 26, 2014 03:22 PM (6E2VN) 454

Posted by: CharlieBrown'sDildo at September 26, 2014 03:08 PM (Zu3d9) Aw, thanks. I do think the media's irresponsibility in ginning up race riots in certain instances but not in others is ridiculous. Stoke hatred in one camp and try to squash it in another, dependent on the color of the person's skin. Insidious. I was also dumbstruck by the news that a Texan man who was an army vet, carrying a map of the White House in a bible, was stockpiling weapons, and was fixated on the president, got over the White House fence, and this has been completely downplayed as a nothingburger. I suspect that it is only, ONLY because his name is Omar Gonzalez; were he named Adam Smith the press would be screaming about it every night and it would be used against conservatives in the 2014 elections. No doubt. Posted by: LizLem at September 26, 2014 03:24 PM (yRwC8) 456

I certainly don't fantasize about or advocate killing muslims en masse or randomly whenever there's a terrorist act or "workplace violence" or "local crime story"
What I am sick of is the policy of sending the authorities to guard muslims, make all sorts of apologies, and punish anyone who is pissed off about it When a white suburbanite loser shoots up a school or a UPS center, the rest of us are supposed to repent for the sins of "collective guilt" or for "hate words that inspired the killer". Then piss on the Constitution, propose massive police state legislation, all to protect "the children" I'm not blaming all muslims, but I wish they'd stop getting special treatment just because some pissed off people run their mouths.

Every time a moon god worshiper cuts someone's head off they claim it is the will of Allah. Is Allah one of 360 gods at the Kaaba Muhammad made everyone worship of else off with their head? Is Allah the god Sin?

lanza was a user. it screwed up his chemistry. people don't have to be "on" it to be adversely affected by having used it months and even years ago. it triggers some people. and yeah, it is way off topic in some regards. it is relevant in that people saw the crazy and no one acted. no one successfully acted that is. to hell with the root cause, i guess. but when police look for the murderer of a wife and mother of four, they look at the husband first. MJ is a common thread in a lot of psycho sprees. whether you like it or not, there it is. whether it matters or not? you got me there. one out of who knows how many people are harmfully altered by it. that's all. someone brought up caffeine, as if that puts the discussion to rest. and no, it ain't a hobby horse. just shooting the breeze here and throwing out the whole root cause thing for everyone's consideration. thanks for your input. i don't owe you a dollar yet. pot is harmless. for everyone. got it. sorry for bringing it up. didn't mean to smear anyone.

Muslim attacks someone, we have to talk about killing three billion muslims (that was the actual figure floated in the comments several days back).
Posted by: ace The issue is not really "violence" but rather the inexplicable appeal of noxious ideologies. It's patently obvious that this guy was not a "terrorist" per se, but it's just as patently obvious that beheading people in a rage is a core value of his chosen "religion." In the entire history of this country, can you think of even one "disgruntled ex-employee comes back and wreaks revenge" incident that resulted in a beheading? No. In my lifetime I've seen literally hundreds of these incidents (anybody remember the phrase "going postal," which came from several PO employees going berserk after getting fired or getting reprimanded?), and although many of them ended with deaths, NOT ONE ended with a beheading. Until now. And what was the distinguishing characteristic of this guy? He was a Muslim -- the very religion that is on the nightly news every night beheading victims. This is no coincidence. And he didn't need to be a member of a "terrorist" group to act like this. His behavior is what Muslims do, and he knew that. Beheading someone never would have occurred to him had he been any other religion (or nonreligious). So, whether or not a bunch of hopped-up rednecks drive around the USA in their pickup trucks shooting at random Muslims, or merely fantasize in blog comments about doing so, is actually irrelevant: Islam already is a noxious ideology. It will remain so if we act nonviolent and passive and reasonable, and it will remain so if random people get angry and seek out random "revenge," and it will remain so if the US military kills a gang of extremists, and it will remain so if Joe "Praise Jesus" Warmonger III gets elected president in 2016 and declares war on worldwide Islam and nukes the Middle East. Our actions (however you define "our") are irrelevant. Because we're dealing with a very problematic ideology (which is misidentified as a religion). It has been this way since Mohammed himself massacred and beheaded innocent tribes. And ever since. And it's not going to change, despite the fantasies of people with "COEXIST" bumperstickers. No, to get back to my original point, the problem is that these creepy ideologies, no matter how roundly condemned by reasonable people, just won't go away. The "class revenge" ideology of Marx and Engels, despite being exposed, debunked and discredited an infinite number of times both theoretically and in real-world applications, continues to thrive and attract "converts." Nazi ideology, despite being taboo and hated by all "normal" people, continues to appeal to those either moronic or attracted to the taboo. And Islam similarly continues to thrive, despite under even cursory inspection to be revealed as a totalitarian and fascistic worldview. Crushing the Nazis in WWII did not bring and end to Nazism. Winning the Cold War and the self-evident failure of every single Marxist state did not end Marxism. And obviously nothing has ended Islam. Where we need to be directing our energies is in making these ideologies less appealing, even as "taboo" cult-clubs. Some ideologies have indeed "died out" (how many practitioners of ancient Egyptian religion are there left in the world? Zero? How many Mesmerists?), so is it possible to "snuff out" an ideology. How to do so is a huge question one can't answer here in a comment, but that's what I'd like to be discussing. Posted by: zombie at September 26, 2014 03:50 PM (/UYSJ) 464

I thought we were talking about a guy who must be crazy to follow a mad man named Muhammad. Someone who worshiped one of 360 gods at the Kaaba. Perhaps, his Imam, or Internet Jihad contact will help shed light on this fellows desire to cut a women's head off.

Humans are very emotional. When Islam does what Islam does well it brings chaos within a culture. Chaos brings change.
It is the same thing with bringing in millions of illegal aliens. The Federal government appears to be supporting this chaos. What recourse do we have as most are poor? I say, arm yourself to the teeth with a 5.56, or 7.62 weapon system and six extra clips. Posted by: Leatherneck at September 26, 2014 04:05 PM (vg6/o) 468
What that would require is a true recognition of what islam really is.
Posted by: naturalfake at September 26, 2014 02:35 PM (KBvAm) ^^^^ THIS. Our media ignores the true nature of this dysfunctional ideology, and does very little to accurately inform us of it's true nature and history. After doing some basics research, I have come to believe that this 'religion' is essentially EVIL. After all, compare "Do unto others" with "Behead infidels".....

dayum zombie.
can i say that is where i was headed had i followed my train of thought for forty years or so and people coached me through it? that was well said. very well said. thank god for smart people. i hope your question is addressed. my two cents? speak against it while we can. highlight the hypocrisy and humiliate it. i watched that video that supposedly caused spontaneous protests. is that stuff true? they seemed to cite "scripture" and verse on all of it. no wonder they'd be incensed. i didn't see any refutation of it. just obama simply saying it was slanderous and basically saying no wonder our consulate was attacked, who could blame them kind of crap. no one went point by point and called bullshit on it. meanwhile i'll tiptoe around and listen. cuz, honestly? they scare the hell out of me. was proselytized to in the service. incessantly. they get goddamned violent fast. numerous fights about it and that's no shit. and those were American service members. it is effin toxic. bat-shit crazy. and the volatility is shocking. ffs, they behead people and think that is a ticket to paradise. and here i am leaving footprints if one of them wants to track an infidel down. honestly, i am almost as hesitant to say the M word on line as i am the N word. they scare the shit out of me. christians know there is nothing they can do for that ticket. can't behave their way into paradise. 180 degree different. with that i'll try to shut up and listen for a while, and hope this thread continues into the night. have a nice weekend, y'all.

Well said, Ace. Just because a Muslim beheaded a woman in America is no reason to jump to conclusions. Why, it could be just a coincidence that he was a Muslim and a beheader. Who among us has not decapitated a passerby in a moment of distemper? Are we then Muslims? It all sounds so silly when it's put like that, doesn't it? This is just another incident of workplace violence, nothing more.

The only feasible answer to Islamic extremism is to convert them to Christianity. Without conversion, we will only see more of the same.

If this story is reported at all in the New York Times and its ancillary media it will be something like this:
Shooting and stabbings kill one and injure two in workplace violence incident. A disgruntled employee who was in the process of being fired is being held in the incident. The assailant had a tattoo of Jesus and a tattoo of praying hands and was reported to have been pestering coworkers to convert to his religion. When are we going to pass some common sense gun laws? Posted by: Obnoxious A-Hole at September 26, 2014 06:37 PM (PD6iL) 477
The local media here in OK omitted the part about this guy being a muslim, in their initial reports.
The incident was reported as "workplace violence". People think of OK as a really conservative place. It is...but the media here is pretty much all liberal/progressive. Posted by: wheatie at September 26, 2014 06:52 PM (pvVHg) 478
Hey, Obnoxious A-Hole, I saw this alternative headline in one of the Amazon Politics Forum threads:
"Christian Police officer Shoots Innocent Muslim While Performing Sacred Islamic Ritual!" I've been reading comments in local tv sites that post on my FB newsfeed. Some are absolutely stupefying. It is almost too late for the world's religious and political leaders to step up and talk ffs. At this point, when they finally do, it'll probably just fulfill a prophecy from Daniel Chapter 2 or 7. At that point, I hope the rapture is real and that my shaky faith gets me the hell out of here. Eh, maybe not. I think I could be cowardly enough to just bow down and fake devotion to Islam just to survive and keep my family alive. Pretty scary. Seems that's how dictators are born and thrive. Here I am today with contingency plan to just play along so my family doesn't get abused horrifically. Isn't that why we needed a surge and a significant SOFA? Way back in 2005, my friends used to fantasize about Vietnam styl tunnels on steroids. Some shack in Falluja being the main exit for the American bullet ants that would pour our if a terrorist group so much as farted in the wrong direction. I was naive. I really hoped we would be smart enough to have a NORAD type complex manned with much much more underground than what we pretended to leave behind for "just in casies" above ground. I hoped it so much that I started to believe "duh, of course they did." ISIS disillusioned me. Any global movements steering toward peaceful cohabitation will just postpone the inevitable. Eeyore out. Thought I was gonna shut up and listen. Beer does that to me. Posted by: i like anchors at September 26, 2014 07:10 PM (6E2VN) 479

"I will wage such a war, that the Japanese language will only be spoken in Hell."
That was Halsey, at the start of the last war America won. We won, by the way, by dropping nuclear weapons on two cites in Japan, after fire-bombing most of the others, as well as most of the major cities of Germany. I suspect that one or two of the inhabitants of all those cities might have been what Ace would call "innocent". War is like that. Innocent people get killed, because they are on the other side. Now that you've told us how wrong it is even to talk about killing people for being our enemies, maybe you would like to explain your easy-peasy three-point plan for getting the R of P stop making war on us? Posted by: Jerome at September 26, 2014 08:22 PM (eQa5p) 481
By the way, how did all these Muslims get to be so innocent? Their religion says to kill us. Their co-religionists are killing us. They have opened up a slave market in northern Iraq, where they sell women whose families they have killed. They plan to go right on killing us, in ever-growing numbers. Are there a lot of Innocent Mafiosi? Are you concerned about a backlash against innocent Crips and Bloods? No one in America has to be a Communist, or a Crip, or a Muslim. It's a personal decision they make, to join an organization that preys upon outsiders.
Posted by: Jerome at September 26, 2014 08:43 PM (eQa5p) 482
According to the Koran, the only innocent people in this world are Muslims. Plus, the only way for an Infidel to get to Heaven is to be killed by a Muslim.
Therefore, Islam covers both bases. If those who follow Muhammad murder you, you get a chance to make it to Heaven. If your a Muslim, you get a good chance to go to Heaven. When Old Knob made that religion/political system he was sure using his noodle that day. Posted by: Leatherneck at September 26, 2014 10:22 PM (vg6/o) 483
