You are seriously going to say that? I can probably round up a list of names of people on this forum, all conservatives, who will claim that ALL muslims are extremists, ALL of them want to kill westerners.

He left where he worked and drove to another office.
He could have very well had his own weapon.

Partially severed or completely severed..does it really matter ?
A Muslim convert beheading people and it's now happening in America.

ISIS just gave a shout out a couple of weeks ago to do this here
and a shooting, which is how my family member was killed, he was shot in the back
so yes I do look at this differently and I am horrified and believe this will happen more
our society has become so violent, but this takes it to another horrible level
chopping a head off takes time and what kind of depravity and evil to do such a thing??
He had been trying to convert others I am sure more will come out the other person he attacked is in the hospital so will be talking first hand
so am I overly concerned?? yes I sure as hell am
I am a 63 year old woman and pay close attention to what has been going on with this evil ISIS
and am amazed at how many people from this country have gone to fight with them!!!
How can anyone not take notice of this???

This guy isn't a genius. He's not Arabic. He's not fluent in any Middle Eastern language.

He's enraged, because he just got fired.

Get your head out of whatever orifice you've got it into.

Because sometimes a nutjob is just a nutjob. Even religious nutjobs can be lonely little psychos who use their religion to excuse their heinous actions. Nutjobs simply aren't representative of their religions. Just like nutjobs aren't representative of their professions. Just like nutjobs aren't representative of their race. Nutjobs are nutjobs. This guy had a Jesus tattoo. And an Allah tattoo. But what branch of Islam did he belong to----because tattoos in Islam???? Certainly not the form of Islam practiced by ISIL. In that branch, tattoos are forbidden. So, just how devout was this guy? Or was he a jailhouse convert?? Or what??

Too many questions, way too soon for people to start bashing Islam because of one individual's heinous acts.

Yes, I am cherry picking. Because I don't know all the facts. None of us do.

SMH at the fools who voted for this administration twice.
What does President Obama have to do with this incident?

I didn't see anyone blame Former President Clinton for the Oklahoma City bombing in 1995. I didn't see anyone blame Former President Clinton for the Columbine High School shooting.

I didn't see anyone blame Former President George W. Bush for the dragging/murder of James Byrd, or for Virginia Tech shooting either.

People blamed the perpetrators for the violence, not the President.

I'm saying that I don't have all the facts. None of us do. The rush to judgment is premature.

Do you say that every time a Muslim commits an act of jihad? It's just an isolated incident. Well, some of us are not so blind to see our world as a collection of isolated incidents having nothing relevant to do with one another. There are connections between events in our world, whether you wish to see them or not.
