Farrakhan says sniper suspect was a member of Nation of Islam

Of course, every religious group has their share of murderers. It's rather entertaining to see people pontificate about the extremists of other religions.

[Bogey78O]

Every religion contains extremists. It's telling about the religion with the way they handle them.

The school boy the sniper shot is black and is in pretty rough shape. W/ years of rehab ahead of him.

I'm amazed that the perps shot blacks, especially a black child. Any idea why their targets were so diverse?

You said, "How convenient that this so called Nation of Islam disowns John Mohammed only after he's killed a bunch of Blacks and others."

Unfortunately, they haven't disowned him. But Farrakhan said the man would be ousted from the Chicago-based group if he is convicted...

It looks like they will only after he's convicted. I wonder if they'll supply him with a lawyer?

There should be a pool on his defense. Will it be:

a) Society's fault.

b) Fluoridation.

c) Messages from the mother ship.

d) CIA mind control experiment gone awry.

e) Plot by W to blame islam.

f) All of the above except for the actual perp, he's innocent.

I'm just waiting for Fora-con to declare a jihad against the U.S.

Seems to me he pretty much done so through his lackeys. I stumbled across an oddball radical radio station in Cincinnati a couple of times this past summer (WAIF or something like that). Both times I was listening I happened to catch recorded speeches made by members of the NOI. They were preaching racism and violence against whites in the US; even against the govt. as I recall. I was amazed that this stuff even got on the air.

I'm wondering just how long it would have taken the federales to pay me a visit if I would have preached the same rascist trash against blacks.

Correct me if I'm wrong but I don't believe he shot any muslims!

Stpid Post of the Year Award to you!

howdy..

i have guess.....why...

but first....they both were shooters...as is evidenced by the differences in skills....head as opposed to torsos...


about the cross race hits....

it is my bet that the jamacian factor contributes to this...contrary popular belief....i bet most non american blacks....especially jamacian and african....have a particular disdain for american blacks...mainly centered around distrust...and the "black enough" feelings....

for example, jamacia (sp?) is "independent" and, from what i have observed, american blacks often hit the island feeling and acting like royality...or at least that is how it appeared to me, when i was verbally assulted by some of my fellow citizens, festooned in leapord hats and robes..HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA...oh well, a mind is a terrible thing to waste..in any event, they are extremely clannish and do not necessarily view an american black as being...from the hood..so to speak....ditto regarding africa....as the indgenous fellows remember just who really sold whom into slavery in the first place, and distrust those who come "home"..because there is guilt in their hearts....................................

just a guess.....

That's the nice thing about Pol Pot, Mau, Stalin, Castro and all of the other communist (extreme democrats), they murdered millions, but they did not do it in the name of religion. What a relief that must have been to the dead.

True, every religion has extremest. But of the major religions, only Islam has the basic premise that violence (murder, rape, robbery, coercion, whatever etc.) against infidels is the right and duty of a moslem.True believers in Islam are required to devote their lives to converting the world to the faith. There are no moderate moslems and those claiming to be so are also considered infidels by Islam fundamentalist.

I saw this on WND web site front page...

Don't forget to change your clocks tonight...Fall behind (turn back) One hour

[Bogey78O]

wow....impressive

[TaRaRaBoomDeAyGoreLostToday!]

LOL since when has Farrakhan had any sense of the laws or morality to kick out the shooter if convicted?

[lwd]

"Those who knew him never said ugly things about his conduct or his behavior," Farrakhan said.

Is Farrakhan saying that he knows people who knew Muhammad? Potential character witnesses? He sure seems to imply that. Who does Farrakhan know?

Whoever it is, it sure isn't the Rev. Al Archer.

[TaRaRaBoomDeAyGoreLostToday!]

My point was that it is too bad it is (was) not breaking news on mainstream media. They got off characterizing this shooter as everything else but tied to wacko Farrakhan.

[TaRaRaBoomDeAyGoreLostToday!]

His name uhhh duuuuh Mohammed, along with the Americanized name was a sure give away.

[Liberty Teeth]

[Plutarch]

Farrakhan said he "grieves for the senseless loss of life" caused by the sniper shootings.

Well that's more than we usually get from Muslim leaders.

Interesting. When I lived in Miami, I heard that american blacks hated the Haitians because the Haitians were willing to work for a living instead of collecting welfare as a profession. Hard to keep up with who hates whom.
