Apparently another "ISIS" inspired shooting in Chattanooga, killing 4 marines....

Remember when we had that discussion about the media jumping the gun and getting the story all wrong? Yet, here you go branding it as "ISIS" inspired!  I didn't see ISIS mentioned in ANY of the news stories I have read so far. It may have been, but until we know, get it right.

At least the media is treating it correctly this time ....

The shooting is being viewed as "an act of domestic terrorism," U.S. Attorney William C. Killian said. However, Killian said the investigation would bear out precisely what kind of crime this was, cautioning people not to get caught up in the label.

A senior FBI official said the shooting did not initially appear to be related to any international terrorist group.

Investigators "have not determined whether it was an act of terrorism or whether it was a criminal act," Ed Reinhold, FBI special agent in charge, told reporters. "We are looking at every possible avenue, whether it was terrorism -- whether it was domestic, international -- or whether it was a simple, criminal act."

I said...."apparently"....due to several links I read where a "tweet" from the identified shooter.....Muhammad Youssef Abdulazeez ... tweeted this

[Locutus]

There seems to be some disagreement as to the actual time that tweet was first made HH.  I guess we'll have to wait and see as the investigation progresses. 

[Locutus]

BTW, your link is broken.  Twitter disabled the account that posted that.  Here's what it looked like before it disappeared.

[Henry Hawk]

I agree, time will tell.  It is very, very sad when people want to kill those who are here to defend us!

[Locutus]

Well if this indeed does turn out to be ISIS related, I don't think Abdulazeez viewed them as defenders at all.

As of this morning, the official news is that he had no connections to any terrorist group. I sure would like to know where you got that link. I'll bet the FBI would too!

BTW, by posting that link, you probably put yourself on a FBI/CIA/NSA watchlist. As well as everyone who clicked on your link.

Reckless and irresponsible.

First of all, I should NOT have used the word, "apparently"....but rather "allegedly".  My mistake.  I own it.  Now, am I reckless and irresponsible?  NO!  I am talking to YOU, PH, EX, Locutus, ME, Anne, PurpleLady, Y, Troll and maybe one or two others.....I really don't think they have me on any list.  They are intelligent enough to know.  I think it is YOU being irresponsible for suggesting something THAT stupid.

You really think that was stupid? You are more naive than I ever thought.

And you never did tell us how you found that link!

Locutus found it too....it was a tweet from an ISIS dude.  It was easy to find yesterday....then it went away.  No, I am not naive...just realistic.  They know the difference between BS'ers on a forum and nutjobs trying to stir poop.

[Purplelady1040]

I don't know if the shooter is an ISIS shooter or not, and really don't care. What he did was wrong and wouldn't matter to me what list he is on. I do think Big Brother, so to speak is watching us all and know who is viewing and looking into terrorist things and who isn't but that is just me. Maybe I am naive to think that!

Let me stir your memory ...

A couple of years ago we discovered some strange traffic on our network. It seems that just clicking on the NSA website loaded strange cookies on some computers here.

Now that's realistic.

[Henry Hawk]

Let me just clear one thing up....All I stated was that it was...."ISIS inspired" ... and based on what I have read so far...that seems to hold true.  I don't think it was just a nutjob, like the kid in South Carolina.....i think this kid had more "religious/militant" motives.
