Satan must love muslims.
He hates them as much as he hates us. They're just very useful.
Nothing to see here - just move along.....
I knew you must have made up that headline. No way the MSM would be so politically uncorrect.
Now the questions is.. Why?
It sounds like the being Muslim part was secondary to the being left by his wife part.
Divorce is a travesty and should not be encouraged.
Color me surprised.
The ultimate F U. Dress up in a Santa outfit and kill innocent kids celebrating Christmas.
Wow, what a guy.
No where does the article say the guy was muslim.
It say the guys marriage was falling part.
Maybe he was muslim, but can we stick to the facts?
He probably blamed it on the infidels and saw fit for an infidel to pay the price.

This was the Star Telegram headlines a couple days ago.
The family is Persian (i.e. Iran) in origin. I was surprised to learn in recent years that Persians in general (outside of the radical mullahs & their followers) are very tolerant of other religions and cultures, and often go out of their way to demonstrate this by adopting many of the cultural traditions of the country where they live.
We had a Persian Muslim family across the street from us when we first moved to our current house. Every Christmas they decorated their house, and they even wrapped a cross in Christmas lights and put it in a prominent place in their front yard. Some of the nicest people on our street at the time, and we were sorry to see them move away.
I learned this also through the various Persians that have come to the English conversation class I teach — of all Muslims, they are by far the most relaxed around Christians.
Obviously (to me, anyway), this fellow had stability issues beyond his religion, but I expect he used his religion to rationalize what he ultimately did to his family.
Who was the infidel that died? Thought he killed his muslim family, ohm and BTW, were these people converts or from the Middle East?
My mistake.
Jeez - it only gets worse. Here I am complaining about the FReeper making up his own headline. And now I see he posted a two day old story in Breaking News?
Oh well.
I too have the impression that Iranians are the most likely to assimilate here. I suppose that has much to do with the masses that came here following the Islamic Revolution in 1979, and family that were chain immigrated subsequently.
It sounds like the being Muslim part was secondary to the being left by his wife part.
I have read other articles that quote friends of the gunman’s daughter. They discuss how the father did not like her non-Muslim ways. He did not like her clothing, her friends or her non-Muslim boyfriend. He went through her phone to read her texts.
Whether his primary anger was directed at his wife for divorcing him or his daughter for dating a non-Muslim, his Christmas Day actions reek of Honor Killing to me.
