Lets not jump to conclusions because the killer The accused was heard to shout “Allahu Akbar”, before and after committing multiple murders.

Don’t be a hate filled Islamophobe. Just because they are Muslim killers and attackers, that doesn't mean they are Muslim terrorists!

Security officials will gather late Tuesday to determine whether the incident was terrorism or not, according to local media.

Didn’t take me that long. If it wasn’t terrorism, then what the hell was it? He just puts on an explosive vest and goes for a leisurely walk every day or two?

The witness who took the photo said it was a suitcase burning, which may have had an explosive device inside of it.

Thanks to all the Freepers and other conservatives who came up with the individual jpgs.

“.Happens all the time, no?”

Indeed. After all, there’s at least one “Explosive Belts R Us” store in every mall in the U.S.
