So how long before the Minority right-on rulers get their cataracts sorted ?

Just more ammo for Trump one feels.

GOSH! A shooting in America, that's a rarity!

Remember the good old days, when we didn't have to hear about these vermin, several times a day, every day.
Short of eradicating the scum from the face of the earth, do you think we can ever return to those halcyon days.

I think this bloke is a nutter who is *** off with his lot and who would eventually have shot a copper for looking at him the wrong way. Is he even a Muslim?

[-Talbot-]

ok just read this

Archer's mother, Valerie Holliday, told The Philadelphia Inquirer her son has been hearing voices recently and that the family asked him to get help. She described him as devout Muslim.

However, the Council on American-Islamic Relations said Archer did not appear to be an observant Muslim.

CAIR, like the MCB are scummy apologists for terrorism.

It has surprised me for some years that the Police still get so many recruits in the USA as they do - perhaps it is because of the strong gun culture in the Country as a whole?


A very dangerous job to undertake.

[Gavmacp]

Mamyalynne,
Do you mean there has been other shootings in America! Gosh I am surprised!

// It has surprised me for years that the [US] Police still get so many recruits //

the one I met 2001 absolutely loved it and seemed unworried that he shot at people and they shot back. Had done a sports scholarship at uni and was going gt guns until wiped off the road on duty by one of his pals.He survived and the driver got sent to Iraq. Tennessee police troopers did tours of duty in Iraq for reasons I never understood.

It was a misheard instruction moment, Peter.

They were supposed to be employed guarding the local Tie Rack.

"CAIR, like the MCB are scummy apologists for terrorism." In November, the MCB placed ads in the national press condemning the Paris attacks, not defending DAESH.

As Gavmacp has said, someone being shot and killed in America is hardly unheard of....dozens of people are killed in the US every day. If there wasn't a "muslim" angle to this story, we wouldn't even know it had happened.

[Old_Geezer]

You may have. It was the sheer idiocy of going up to a cop car and firing multiple times. (Not to mention having little result.)

Anyway he doesn't need help for the voices, obviously that was Allah was telling him what to do.

[Svejk]

Lots of policemen are murdered in America by criminals evading capture . To seek out and murder a policeman in the name of 'religion' is a little more newsworthy, imo. (and, I suggest, any normal person)

[Svejk]

Corby, they did indeed condemn the attack. But qualified their 'apology' (ha ha) with their monotonous NTDWI meme.
Islamist terrorist attacks, patently, have everything to do with Islam.
I'd have a modicum of respect for the MCB if they admitted that fact and undertook some reforms to stop it happening, instead of opposing every government attempt to clamp down on Islamists as Islamophobia. And, of course, blaming western foreign policy for the attacks fuels the next attack. (which they'll, again, condemn)

Not even if there happened to be a "Cop shoots a Black" angle to the story?

[Orderlimit]

That would be murder Aog ^

Big deal, an easy thing to do if it helps to take some heat off themselves.

[Cloverjo]

The problem here isn't that he was a Muslim, but that Americans are allowed to carry guns. How is this craziness ever going to stop while most of them agree with their "right to bear arms"?
