Guess not, Dom gets his info from his friends on the force. But if the media wanted to keep this quiet, they’re already in trouble since it’s on Philly radio.

[PghBaldy]

NY Daily News & Fox News reporting the info about Islam. Given it is Friday, if the news doesn’t spread today, it will be ignored by the (cable) news this weekend. They tend to do lousy with news on weekends.

Well, that’s the last we’ll hear of this incident in the MSM....

[Stentor]

I lived in West Philly for a while... I would at times fall asleep when riding the El and wake up at the end of the line and walk my way from 59th & Market to 21st and Baltimore... Lovely

We need to get this story to Trump. Guaranteed the story will get out.

Talking about it now in Philly radio http://player.radio.com/listen/station/talk-radio-1210-wpht

[PghBaldy]

Reported on radio (link above) now he (apparently) did it in name of “Islamic State”

Liberals are dangerous outlaws.

Another article says he did it in the name of Islam.

No motive?

Someone is trying to kill a cop and any one will do.

[skeeter]

“No know motive” = “did it in the name of Islam”.

[NativeSon]

that links a keeper...

[NativeSon]

that’s out towards Cobb’s Creek?

[Deo volente]

Thanks for that link.

I’m from Philly. It used to be a great city, about 50 years ago. There are still some very fine neighborhoods, but West Philadelphia is not one of them. My Mom lived in Germantown, which also was very nice in the 1940’s and 50’s, but not anymore.

He was wearing Islamic garb (that long white gown) but from what I could see of him in the video, it looked like he was black. Was he an African Muslim, or was he a black American convert, anybody know?

I heard (on the radio show link I pssted above) he has brothers, and a record for firearms offenses, IIRC.

[Deo volente]

Caller just pointed out that Giordano is the only one to mention so far that he was wearing Islamic garb. Not a word about that anywhere else.

The good reverend Al Sharpton be outraged!
