Two armed suspects believed to be carrying explosives have been shot dead after opening fire outside an anti-Muslim art exhibition in Dallas. The pair were gunned down after shooting a security guard in the leg outside the Curtis Culwell Center in Garland, Texas, during a 'family event' where caricatures of the Prophet Muhammad were being displayed.

The building and surrounding area was placed on lockdown by a SWAT team with around 100 attendees still inside after multiple gunshots were heard. A contest offering a top prize of $10,000 for the best caricature of the prophet was being held as the shootout unfolded.

Obama condemning the “provocation” in 3-2-1....

This ought to drive him to say something really stupid.

“Why do liberals excuse the actions of those islamists who kill? There really is no rational answer.”

Another oddity is that they generally seem to be against all religion, period, because it is somehow “unenlightened”. Why let just one, and especially that particular one that seems as though it would be especially offensive to the liberal mind slip through?

Until conclusively proven to the contrary, this attack on liberty was orchestrated by hussein's mooselimb White Hut. Proof? The words of the usurper make it quite self-evident.

Maybe the guy who put this on can join the guy who made the movie that supposedly set off the Benghazi attack in the slammer. Troublemakers.

It concerns me the cops ordering folks to “get in the (effing) building!”

For all they knew there were bombs pre-placed in the building.

Cops on power trips don’t necessarily know what’s best for us.

Note to self: Always have a plan to abscond before the police arrive and order me back into the effing building.

"we need thousands of these contest nationwide"

You betcha. But, unfortunately, I predict the opposite will happen. Eventually, it will become a federal "hate crime" to "provoke" a religious organization.

But of course such a law would only be applied to those who "provoke" islam in any way. Sell bacon in a store in a way that a muslim might see the product? Hate crime!

And no, I'm not being sarcastic here. If a dem wins in 2016, all this will be put in motion. In Britain, Labor leaders are proposing such measures even now.

The bodies haven't been identified?
Now, that's odd...

"Allahu Akbar" wasn't a sufficient clue?

They’d better hurry; they are scheduled to be accidentally cremated.

As far as I could tell from the FOX NEWS Channel, it looks like they are gonna let one of the dead Muslims lay there until he rots. I am praying the Garland Police spend the next two or three days checking that car. I think Islam requires their dead to be buried before sundown. How about scraping him up before sundown Tuesday?

Like Dzohkhar the Joker and his Boston bomber brother, and the Guantanamo losers, their Mommies will probably be demanding reparations for their sorry hides before too long.

Hang them on barb wire!

Bacon on tap for breakfast tomorrow and a nice pork roast for dinner. (I noted recently in another thread that it is becoming hard to find pork in our airport restaurants.)

Texans know how to handle their guns. Where are the rioting whites?

Pray America is waking

They probably searched the building before the event and made sure no one brought any guns or bombs into the event. They were expecting trouble. Worse scenario would have been an inside attack.
