As horrible as it sounds both this guy and ISIS are doing beheading incorrectly. Goes to show they have no idea what they're doing.

And yes you're supposed to try to convert non-Muslims into Islam. I've always been taught, however, that by being a positive role model, and a fine example of how great islam is, non-Muslims will be drawn to the religion and will convert on their own. Show the non-believers kindness and teach them about Islam if they ask and let them decide for themselves.

Again, I agree, I did not mean for my last post to come off as an Anti-Religion statement. I was actually agreeing that it was not religion that made the accused crazy, but that it was an outlet. Much like you point out, outlets can be anything for a person with the capability to commit such a violent crime.
However, when a religion endorses, promotes, and rewards theses actions, it becomes far more dangerous that taking instructions from your dog, or being rejected by someone, because the actions become glorified and celebrated.

Yes because every Muslim just had a "Behead Your Boss Day" today.

So disgusting indeed.

Good day for the American right: Muslim involved in beheading incident (increased Islamophobia) and a gun used to subdue the guy (good guys with guns, gun laws should be loosened)? Big win for them. Sadly with ISIS I expect a spike in these types of random killing events for the next few months, they've clearly hit a nerve with Westerners in a way no group has before.

A lot of people are trying to connect this with ISIS. Apparently he was fired because he was a recent Islam convert and was trying to push others into converting. I'm not personally saying this is wrong. I'm just stating what I am hearing.
Has anybody tried to connect this to Obama and obamacare

I sometimes wonder if it might not be a positive thing to let these Islamic terrorist thugs and others like the above choose if they want to be tried by Western or Islamic courts, and to have properly vetted Islamic justices presiding.

The above person and some of these terrorists might be surprised just before they get their heads lopped off, and it might be helpful in moving these terrorists further away from Islam based on their punishment.

Way to fall for the forced religious spin.

That said, it's not known if Nolen's religion had anything, at all, to do with what happened Thursday.
The FBI and other investigators, of course, could eventually find some sort of link or tie Nolen to others.
But that hasn't happened yet. As of Friday, all U.S. law enforcement officials said was that there are no indications linking the Moore attack to terrorism.

Oh look.
