MOORE, Okla. (AP) — A man who had been fired from a food processing plant in an Oklahoma City suburb beheaded a woman with a knife and was attacking another worker when he was shot and wounded by a company official, police said Friday.The 30-year-old man, who has not been charged, stabbed Colleen Hufford, 54, severing her head in Thursday's attack at Vaughan Foods, Moore Police Sgt. Jeremy Lewis said."Yes, she was beheaded," Lewis told The Associated Press before a Friday news conference.Lewis said the man then stabbed Traci Johnson, 43, a number of times before being shot by Mark Vaughan, a reserve sheriff's deputy and the company's chief operating officer.While questioning the suspect's co-workers, investigators learned he had recently started trying to convert several employees to Islam, Lewis said. Moore police have asked the FBI to aid in the investigation and look into the man's background because of the nature of the attack, Lewis said.
Fox News is reporting that the killer;s Facebook page shows that he was a jihadist, with [i Liberals are still pretending that there is nothing Lslamic about this.ctures of 9/11, bin Laden, and brecent beheadings. Liberals are stll pretending that there is no Islamic connection.
CNN is running HBO's Terror at the Nall about the Westgate Mall terror attack in /Kenya last year. This is a devastating film. Is it time to amend the first amendment so that Lslam does not have an equal legal status. And no more trips to public places unarmed. Kenyan security forces unlike some courageous undercover police shot the good guys. The security cameras show the terrorist praying to Mecca.
From what little I have read on the suspects history, apparently he has a bit of a criminal history. I'm holding out for more evidence before I call his actions a full blown terrorist action. Just from observation of inmates, there is a huge difference between a prison Muslim vs. a Muslim from an organized Mosque.
ReplyDeleteNothing to see here. Just workplace violence. Move on...
ReplyDeleteSigh.
It's clear that this guy is a jihadist. He's also a loser and a criminal. The latter is enough that too many of our chattering classes will pretend that his Islamism means nothing.
But... this is exactly the sort of person recruited by terrorist groups - young, disaffected, loser.
It is not time to amend the 1st amendment to the detriment of any specific group. Islam's legal structure gives us all the tools necessary to control the issue. We just don't take advantage of it.
ReplyDeleteIslam has a judiciary. Most religions do. But Islam's judiciary has no concept of national jurisdiction nor does it limit itself to non-violent penalties. The bailiffs who enforce judicial orders are every adult muslim with a fairly low age of adulthood being set by them.
Islam, God help us, seems to be reacquiring an executive, the Caliphate. The executive is historically trans-national in nature.
One relevant question is whether a particular muslim will enforce some violent fatwa or not. A second relevant question is whether a particular muslim will follow the orders of a claimant to the caliphate in a way that violates our laws. The first amendment does not protect either type of behavior and thus doesn't need to be changed to get at the actual problem of Islam in a free society.
