LITTLE ROCK, Ark. – A Muslim convert accused of killing a soldier in a "political and religious" attack on a military recruiting center pleaded not guilty Tuesday to a capital murder charge and was ordered held without bail.

Abdulhakim Muhammad, 23, of Little Rock, was charged in Monday's death of Pvt. William Long, 23, of Conway outside an Army-Navy Career Center in a west Little Rock shopping center.

A prosecutor said Muhammad admitted shooting Long and another soldier "because of what they had done to Muslims in the past."

Remember, the shooting of an abortionist vindicates the DHS report (even though the likelihood of an abortionist being shot was never what the debate was about) and further marginalizes the dangerous pro-life movement. But to say that Muslims might be prone to acts of terrorism, well that's just racist.

BTW, how did liberals get it into their head that Islam is a race?

It's a race to the bottom.

It suited their needs.

You can still cook a guy down in Ark-ie-saw, right? Drop a pill on him? Push the plunger? Because I’m thinking this case is prime for the good old DP, and I ain’t talking double penetration.

Its the “Religion of Peace”. Didn’t you know? Just ask the Israelis or the families of the 9/11 victims.

Charges will be dropped and he’ll join the ‘O’ministration as a polling location security guard.

These were privates, they haven't been in uniform long enough to do anything yet!

A Muslim Bill O'Reilly-watching right-wing extremist convert accused of killing a soldier George Tiller in a "political and religious" attack on a military recruiting womens' health center pleaded not guilty Tuesday to a capital murder charge and was ordered held without bail.

If the FBI was “watching” this guy, they weren't watching him very closely. A trip to Yemen, a Somali passport. Why was he allowed to ride around and case a recruiting center? I'm sure he had the military recruiting office under surveillance. It is just not credible, as the local cops seem to suggest, that he was riding around with an SUV full of weapons—and can felons have weapons in Arkansas?—and just happened to see the GIs standing on the street. This was planned.

We are faced with a no win situation. If he is executed he becomes a saint, if he gets time in prison, he gets to evangelize for the jihad. If he gets acquitted he will be a hero and an evangelist.

Islam is many things. When I lived in Iran, the populace referred to the Moslem controlled countries as Islam, they further considered themselves Islam-ic. This was superior to being Iranian. This sentiment has been echoed by others who live in Islam, Syrians, Iraqi, Saudi, Afghani, etc.

can felons have weapons in Arkansas?—

Of course they can. They always will if thats they want..

If he ADMITTED shooting the two soldiers.. how in he77 can he plead NOT GUILTY????

[OldNavyVet]

What kind of thinking leads one to say “I did it, but I’m not guilty”?

[pistolpetestoys]

Democrat-speak for moral superiority.

[antiRepublicrat]

Hate crime.

The MSM comments:

NOTHING TO SEE HERE FOLKS....MOVE ALONG, MOVE ALONG

Why turn to vigilantism? He was arrested. Do we have reason to be disappointed in justice so far?
