If you're asking me if I think it's a muslim connection...hell yes, I have from the git go.
I must admit, my initial reaction when this news first broke was that it was “sudden jihadi syndrome”...then when they kept saying the guy was Asian, I thought I must have over-reacted...now - some very strange things, Ismail X being a big one.
Also, “gun-free” zone lunacy is ridiculous - if concealed weapons had been allowed, this guy might have been taken out a lot earlier.
