Dark Knight killer James Holmes 'is now a Muslim who prays five times a day'
MailOnline ^ | 20 March 2013 | Daily Mail

James Holmes, the gunman behind the Dark Knight massacre in Colorado last July, has reportedly turned Muslim and prays five times a day. The killer showed off a lengthy, thick beard during a court appearance earlier this month, and a prison source has claimed it is a symbol of his new-found faith.

The source said Holmes has turned to Islam as a way of justifying his horrific murder spree in an Aurora, Colorado cinema on July 20 which left 12 people dead and 58 people wounded.

'He has brainwashed himself into believing he was on his own personal jihad and that his victims were infidels,' a prison source told the National Enquirer.

The article doesn't specifically identify when Holmes reverted . . .while Holmes claims his murderous rampage was a personal jihad.

Nothing I read about those warning signs revealed even the slightest hint of his reversion. What about you, did you read anything that would imply he was a devout Muslim?

It wouldn't surprise me in the least if it turns out he reverted before the theatre massacre, and the American press withheld that info.

Funny how this information comes out AFTER Colorado signs the extreme gun ban.

The Muslims’ horrific crimes against their enemmies has inspiried a lot of crazy men in the US and Europe. Muslims have gotten nothing but attention and power since then. Our government has even progressed to molest and abuse Americans at the airports because the Islamists used airplanes to blow up buildings. What’s not to like about this for a Muslim? The police machinery built to track Islamic terrorists has now named US Vets and Christians the real terrorists!

Suddenly, hatin’ on the Jooos, as long as you have a Muslim rationale is even okay. Hatin’ America and Christians is cool among the wackos, too.

Well at least he has joined the right religion for killing random innocent people.

Exactly. It was probably on the advice of his defense attorney.

Is it possible that he sized up the prison population for protection, and picked a side?

He’s obviously trying to line up a pardon from our Islamist-sympathetic administration.

This guy may be insane but he is not stupid.
He see’s how Nidal Hassan is treated.
