Vitriolic e-mails zero in on 'Muslim' [PUKE!!!]
Deseret News ^ | Feb. 15, 2007 | Elaine Jarvik and Deborah Bulkeley

Posted on 02/15/2007 8:07:35 AM PST by Alouette

On ultraconservative Web sites like littlegreenfootballs.com, the story of Monday's shooting rampage at Trolley Square has been reduced to one fact: "Salt Lake City Killer Was a Muslim."

"The media did everything they could to avoid mentioning it, but it's confirmed today that the mass murderer who terrorized a mall in Salt Lake City was a Bosnian Muslim," reads the intro at littlegreenfootballs.com.

At MichaelSavage.com, the Muslim connection is a running-banner headline.

At jihadwatch.org, the story begins "Sudden Jihad syndrome? Maybe."

The online stories, as well as Tuesday's and Wednesday's stories in the Deseret Morning News, have resulted in a barrage of vitriolic e-mails to the News from people either angry at the paper for not mentioning the religion of shooter Sulejman Talovic in Wednesday's Web edition, or certain that because Talovic is Muslim that he must be a terrorist.

It's hard to deny a fact isn't it?

I'd like to thank Deseret News for informing more people about the religion of the perp -- the MSM blackout was total.

"Someone needs to start communication," she said. "Maybe we will be able to express who we are. ... We are Americans, we want the best for this country."

she continued: "so the sooner everyone convert to islam and sharia law is imposed, the better"..(sarc/off)

If LittleGreenFootballs is "ultraconservative," what does that make FR?

What's amusing about this kneejerk piece of political correctness, in which those who notice the killer's religion are "extremists" and various mullahs are trustworthy "experts," is that it is bringing a buried fact to the attention of the readers of the Deseret News: namely, that the perp was a Bosnian Muslim.

They put their spin on it, of course, but they no longer enjoy a monopoly that allows them to completely repress the facts. It's a small step forward.

because Talovic is Muslim that he must be a terrorist.

No, because Talovic shot a bunch of random people in a mall he must be a terrorist.

"Muslim" is just the period at the end of the sentence.

From the article: On Wednesday, in response to a CAIR effort to find photos of American Muslims for a special project, the group received a phone call from someone asking sarcastically, "Do you want a picture of the guy in Salt Lake?"

So, this PC article was written using CAIR for a source. Why? And why such a PC article in the Deseret News?

"Sudden Jihad syndrome!" Spontaneous combustion Jihad syndrome. I noticed in the Times today that the aunt is now blaming whoever sold him the gun. They learn so quickly.

If you watch the video, and move the slider to just around the middle, just after a cop shouts something like "Police! Open up! Open up!" - you might hear what sounds like "Allah-hu akbar!" shouted a couple of times.

Am I hallucinating?

certain that because Talovic is Muslim that he must be a terrorist.

No, morons. The fact that Talovic entered a mall and terrorized people with a shotgun makes him a terrorist.

The fact that he's Muslim makes him an Islamic terrorist.

This isn't that complicated.

In your post to me - you are quoting something I never said.

The problem is the fact that the kid left no note (that we know of) and absent all the other psyco-teen reasons to shoot up a mall we are left with the modus-operandi of Islamofascism: shooting innocent people.

Thanks for the post. I'd heard about the shootings in Salt Lake City and figured it would be about the last place in the US that one would expect something like that. You would have to conclude that no place in America is safe from Islamic violence and/or terrorism.
