(Apologies for the autoplaying news reports.)
Moore, Oklahoma:
30-year-old Alton Nolen is accused of stabbing two women, one of whom had been beheaded.
Why this is in the Pit:
Methinks the release was a bit premature.
Just when I thought, lets have a vacation in the US… should I bring my own gun or can I pick one up in Wal-Mart?
“Druggie” ?
The 1980s called…
You can pick up shotguns in Walmart. And ammo. I’ve said before that, in the event of a zombie apocalypse, that’s where I’m heading first.
He “was convicted in January 2011 of multiple felony drug offenses”. What would you call him?
A convicted felon?
So ISIS owns the copyright to beheading now, does it?
Incidentally, I did not view the videos, but nothing in the text of either the linked stories mentioned any beheading, just the headline. Beheading someone is hugely more difficult than stabbing them. Did any such thing really happen?
Second link is now updated with “10:15 a.m. At a press conference, Moore Police Sgt. Jeremy Lewis confirmed Colleen Hufford’s head was severed in the attack.”
Just found this: The FBI is now looking into Nolen’s background after his former co-workers said he tried to convert them to Islam after recently converting himself.
A lot of fun.
Asshole.
Unfortunately, if the zombies don’t get you, the cops will.
Good to know. Do I need ID or stuff like that or will cash do fine?
Never know, might want an all-out US experience with Police shootout and stuff like that… in a pinch I can work with a machete as well, of cos.
Jeppers, a real gun… a toy gun now… that’s just a bad idea.
That was over three years ago. Since he became religious, he’s really turned his life around.
From your link:
What an awkward sentence! Does the gun “shoot BBs or pellets” or does it “shoot BBs or pellets of fire”?
Cause I’d like to buy a gun that shoots flaming pellets.
This may have been one of those “lone wolf” attacks that we were warned about a few days ago and all I get are jokes and bashed for using “druggie”?
Whatever. This place is messed up.
It’s all the druggies.
Your evidence of an ISIS lone wolf consists of 1) he beheaded someone, and 2) some coworkers said he’s Muslin. Not too convincing at this point. What kind of response were you hoping for? Time to start rounding up Muslims? Time to panic? Thanks for the warning, Skywatcher, I’ll beware of lunatics carrying large knives?
What do you want? Sometimes you can only joke.
“Druggie” is just a poor choice of word. He sounds mentally ill and recently converted to Islam. Those two facts seem more relevant in driving his actions than old drug charges.
