I wanted to know what was being communicated.

This is a very sad story. To be very honest -- I find anything from a Murdoch publication suspect. I still want to know what this DU'r meant with said comment.

Here is a local report. http://kfor.com/2014/09/25/reports-police-respond-to-possible-shooting-near-moore-grocery-store/

The FBI is now looking into Nolen’s background after his former co-workers said he tried to convert them to Islam after converting to the religion himself.

Lewis says the FBI is working in conjunction with the Moore Police Department, especially when it comes to the religious aspect of the case.

At this time, it is not known if the suspect’s beliefs played a role in the attack.

Adam Soltani, the executive director of the Council on American Islamic Relations in Oklahoma, says Nolen’s actions are condemned by the Muslim community and his faith should not be connected to this horrific crime.

CAn you see how quickly the NYP tried to allude to religion? It's slanderous -- This may very well have been a sick person.

most people don't care and do it in good fun, the funny ones are the ones who throw a fit snooper2 Sep 2014 #19

Even funnier still is the one person on the thread attempting to rationalize the irrational. LanternWaste Sep 2014 #30

Arabic is a fairly complex language to learn. Ms. Toad Sep 2014 #27

Why do you assume the Islamic phrases were in Arabic? OnlinePoker Sep 2014 #33

I don't think the witnesses would have made the comment Ms. Toad Sep 2014 #35
