This guy was around kids?

Police quickly arrested Ahmad, 22, whose mother says is mentally ill and had recently been in a mental institution. The FBI charged him Monday with assaulting a U.S. government employee.

Ahmad is in his first year teaching math at Miami Central High, 1781 NW 95th St. ...

Anybody see a problem with those two paragraphs?

Unbelievable.

/well, not really.

If he was teaching at a SCHOOL, how could he have recently been in a mental institution? Do they let nut cases teach kids now?

And yes, once again the media and the government deny the terrorists in our midst.

Just because he suffers from Sudden Jihad syndrome, doesn't make him a terrorist.

/

Oh, and good catch on preventing him from getting a gun!

However, if he had been a resident of Florida for the required time, would his stay in the mental hospital have prevented him from getting a gun?

Now, if he was Christian, of course, this would be headline news and part of why we should lock up all Christians as mass murderers. Because clearly, one isolated incident means all this, while the numerous Islamic related "death to america" chants mean nothing, nothing I tell you!

How does one who has been in a mental institution pass a Corey check, might I ask? Usually one who has been institutionalized cannot teach. Or drive a school bus.

So apprently being in a mental institution does not exclude one from teaching math in Miami.

And a jihadist to boot, they just got all the lines in the PC crossword filled in.

Ahmad had been added to a federal terrorist watch list, but officials had long since concluded he was not a credible threat, Davis said.

OT: Why Islamic Fascists Get Away With Hate Speech

h/t: Mike Rosen

Mental illness and terrorism are far from mutually exclusive.

Although, the MSM definition of terrorism, that discounts mass killings by Muslims at shopping malls, Jewish community centers, El Al ticket counters, SUV attacks on college students, etc., as not being terrorist, nothing short of a letter of recommendation from Sheikh Osama bin Laden in the pocket of any Muslim committing acts of violence while shouting Allahu Ackbar, would be considered terrorism.

Speaking of that, from this am's dead thread speculation -- any names released on the California arsonist yet?

Ahmad did not get his wish. One officer fired his handgun at Ahmad. He missed.

”We take security very seriously at the base, but this was quite an unusual event,” said Lt. Col. Tom Davis, a base spokesman. “Our security forces are well trained and responded appropriately.”

Troublesome. Send him back to the range.

He's like the Rodney Ahmed Dangerfields of terrorists.
But it's kind of interesting that he did get a teaching position while being on a federal terrorist watch list. In my state both a FBI and state police check are required to teach. Is their no coordination between the FBI list and the terror list?

New Tape: Bin Laden Calls Insurgents ‘Pack of Sissies’

(2007-10-23) — In a newly-released audiotape, al Qaeda leader Usama bin Laden spoke directly to Muslim insurgents in Iraq, calling them “a pack of sniveling sissies for collapsing in the face of the recent U.S. military surge.”

“When I see how you cower,” Mr. Bin Laden said, “I’m ashamed to wear the flowing robe of Muslim boldness and the fierce, yet festive, headdress of a jihadi. I have wives who are braver than you...several of them.”

The al Qaeda mastermind noted that his own “courageous concealment” has stymied U.S. attempts to kill or capture him, while he ridiculed al Qaeda in Iraq fighters as “pathetic little pigs trembling at the voice of the big bad American wolf.”

“Why don’t you all shave off your beards,” he asked rhetorically, “and apply a nice cucumber-scented moisturizer to your smooth, hairless faces? You don’t deserve to enjoy the glory of the coming Muslim caliphate. You’re not worthy to lick the drippings from the wall of my cave.”

Had been on a terrorist watch list.
Had been in a mental institution.
Is a teacher at a public high school.

Is anyone taking security seriously around here?

Excellent point.

Put an angy white male Christian in front of an abortion clinic with a sign screaming "Death to abortionists" and his life will be ruined. He would likely be prosecuted under Federal legislation which restricts protesters' speech and actions at clinics, classifies such violations as federal felonies, sujects them to prosecution under RICO statutes, would get them placed on a terrorist watch list upon their release from prison.

Do a similar thing as protest against Bush's foreign policy, and you get a speaking engagement at a local university.
