Queens imam and his assistant shot to death by gunman in attack local Muslims blame on Donald Trump
New York Daily News ^ | 8-13-16 | DALE EISINGER, THOMAS TRACY

Posted on 08/13/2016 3:16:26 PM PDT by dynachrome

A lone gunman killed a Queens imam and his assistant as the pair walked home from Saturday afternoon prayers, shooting each in the head from close range, cops and witnesses said.

Both victims were dressed in Muslim garb when targeted by the shooter, who fled the scene on foot and remained at large. Members of the mosque quickly denounced the double homicide as a hate crime.

“That’s not what America is about,” said local resident Khairul Islam, 33. “We blame Donald Trump for this ... Trump and his drama has created Islamophobia.”

Interesting that it does not seem to be a white, redneck, bible-toting, gun clinger.

Give them time to change it. They will.

More likely he was shot by a radical Muslim, as part of a power struggle for control of the mosque.

“witnesses described the shooter as tall and Hispanic

Arabs and Hispanics look similar, which is why so many Muslims try to sneak across the border via Mexico.

you know those over 30 might not be too much trouble is only 10% think conducting Jihad is legitimate. I’m being sarcastic as 10% is a lot. But the under-thirty crowd is at 30%. That is a poll among the citizens. I’m thinking of that 10% most would likely not conduct one. One tends to get less rambunctious over 40. The young ones I’m worried about.

Epic ironic catch. Islam never to blame even when caught bloody handed, but Trump guilty...just because. Screw them and the goats they screw.

I'm at a point where I can only wait for the election.

I'm working to get Trump elected and all this other talk has happened for the last eight years in FR and will continue ... but right now, we need to get Trump elected and support whatever effort he makes to rid our nation of this bane.

Witnesses say tall Hispanic. That description could also cover middle eastern I’d say.
—–—-—————/-—————————————————————————————————————/
You’re quite wrong! As a natural born “American” of Hispanic dissent who also happens to live in NYC. I’m confident to tell you that we dislike the muzzies more than anyone! You’d be surprised how many older generation Hispanics are telling their kids and grandkids what they’ve never heard before....the Ancient stories of the “Real” reasons why the Catholic Monarchs kicked the Muslims OUT of Spain! In my 40 years I never remember that topic being brought up until recently! Please don’t paint everyone with one brush!!

What he meant, was that an Arab could be mistaken for a Hispanic (similar level of tan), not that a Hispanic was Muslim.

I’ve donated once ... I’m on fixed income that keeps everything oiled but doesn’t have much room for something else.

Trump formally announced his candidacy in the 2016 election on June 16, 2015. If I can do the math correctly that’s over 14 years after Muslims admitted bringing down the twin towers, just about 15 years after the USS Cole was bombed, and a little over 22 years from the first world trade center bombing. And Trump is to blame because people in the US don’t like you? Wake up morons. You’ve got people all over the world would like to strangle your scrawny little necks. And you can’t figure out that people were wishing you harm long before Trump went public with anything you might consider a challenge. Brainless!!!

That’s not what America is about,” said local resident Khairul Islam

Neither is America about Orlando, San Bernardino, Gort Hood, Twin Towers. All attributed to Allah worshipers.

Robbery. Same guy that killed the DNC staffer in DC.

I’m sure that’s what they’ll find ...
