RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) — When someone in the Raleigh area needed a sheep or goat slaughtered according to Islamic law, Daniel Boyd was the man to see.

"You find everything from halal meat and snacks to soft back prints of the Holy Quran in both English and Arabic," read a notice on the Web for Boyd's Blackstone Market in nearby Garner. There was even a place to worship in the back.

Bosnian native Jasmin Smajic said he was drawn to the store by the halal goods. Instead he found a friend.

"He would always ask people, his friends, if he can do a service for you," says Smajic, 23, a student at North Carolina State University. "He would basically ask people if they needed any kind of help with anything ... whether that be advice, whether you're struggling with money, need your faucet fixed — whatever it is. He was always very helpful."

Thornton and Patricia divorced in 1977, when Daniel was 7, and Thornton Boyd died in 2005.

Patricia Boyd married William Saddler, a Washington, D.C.-area lawyer and American Muslim whom she once described as “intellectual and deep and decent.”

It was from there that Daniel Boyd developed his interest in becoming a Muslim.

The article says they were stockpiling weapons and ammo, and training for jihad. Terrorists are among us—another compelling reason for the rest of us to be adequately armed in the event that we have to defend ourselves.

They are in our midst and plotting to kill us, and to kill others. We all know they are here, that they are raising money here, and most of us who live in urban areas know exactly where they are. But the government keeps letting more and more of them in, so there are more of them to recruit American citizens and turn them against their country, prevailing on citizens to work for our country’s destruction. This is sedition. There is a law on the books, called the Smith Act, that we should be enforcing.

Just a sweet kid:

Bin Laden (far right) was said to be "deep" for his age (Osama Bin Laden on a visit to Oxford in 1971)

It may have all been a cover, but Daniel always was a good guy, would help you out with anything, very soft spoken....they say it is always the quiet ones. By the way stockpiling weapons and lots of gunfire does not raise any eyebrows in Johnston county NC!

The Islamic prayers coming from the house should have been a clue...

Notice that they never got off a shot, and neither will you if the govt regards you as "adequately armed" against them.

We've more to fear from the govt than from terrorists.

When someone in the Raleigh area needed a sheep or goat slaughtered according to Islamic law . . .

Is this a frequent need in the Raleigh area? (I was wondering who put John Edwards into office . . . )

After finding 37 bodies buried in the basement and a freezer full of parts, the neighbors always say he was a nice guy and good neighbor.

Thats why I am a loud obnoxious jerk! They will never suspect me.

Hey, guys. Give thought to “adopting” students from Muslim countries. They’re away from home and family, lonely, and warmly respond when welcomed into the heart of an American Christian family. Most of these kids come here wanting to earn an American degree, and make American friends. Sadly, though, fewer than 10% of ‘em get invited into an American home.

Can we evangelize their elite kids faster than they evangelize our thugs and prisoners and losers? Well, depends on how big our God is.
