2 Army Recruiters shot, 1 Killed in Arkansas by Muslim Convert
Just wondering why this story is being completely ignored while the George Tiller "religious extremist/domestic terrorist" murder is getting tons of air time (I think we all know why). The guy is getting charged with 15 counts of terrorism but our worthless media won't talk about it or report it. This omission is unbelievable.
quote:
A Muslim convert who said he was opposed to the U.S. military shot two soldiers outside an Arkansas recruiting station, killing one of the soldiers, police said Monday.
“This individual appears to have been upset with the military, the Army in particular, and that’s why he did what he did,” Little Rock Police Lt. Terry Hastings said in a phone interview.
“He has converted to Muslim here in the past few years,” Hastings said. “To be honest we’re not completely clear on what he was upset about. He had never been in the military.”
Hastings identified the man in custody as Carlos Bledsoe, 24, of Little Rock, who was going by the name of Abdul Hakim Mujahid Muhammad. He did not have further details. The names of the soldiers were not released, nor was the condition of the wounded soldier.
The guy studied abroad in Yemen and studied Jihand with an Islamic scholar... came back, and murdered an Army recruiter because he opposs our military. Religion of peace srikes again.

The terrorism charge is totally retarded. If he wasn't Muslim, he'd just be charged with murder.

I say send him to Guantanamo Bay so that he can become one of the first true terrorists convicted and charged with crimes committed against American citizens.
I'm sure the treatment is "better" than Arkansas, plus it will be a good deterrent to others. Already 4 Gitmo detainees have committed suicide - definitely not a paradise.

over 2100 news stories were reported on the Tiller story in 24 hours. Less than 500 on the Army recruitment shooting in 48 hours. Outrageous indeed.

you clearly miss the point in this statement (although I know you really don't)... less than 25% of the media coverage on a domestic terrorism incident involving a muslim convert compared to those "crazy right winger christian nutcases" = major liberal media bias. It's really that simple. Stop blowing it off like it's insignificant.

Why does it have to be liberal bias? The New York Times reported it. Other more local papers didn't. So what? It doesn't involve a significant moral element. Murder, in this case, is murder. The reaction to the Kansas case is the real story, and I think you realize that.
Plus, white on white crime sells papers. Brown people killing white people is so passe.
