He's just been caught here in Texas...and it is nightfall. Are you sure he is still alive? This may be old news now. :)

".....Daniel Maldonado is a frequent customer of both book stores. Maldonado, who is part Puerto Rican, converted to Islam three years ago from Christianity. He moved to Chicago from Massachusetts recently so he could live in a larger Islamic community. As we speak, Maldonado steps away to observe his daily prayers. Islam requires its followers to pray five times a day facing east to Mecca. Maldonado praises the store's rich selection after his prayers.

He says both Islamic Books & Things and Iqra', 2740 W. Devon St., are invaluable resources for both Muslims and non-Muslims, helping to dispel popular misconceptions about Islamic fundamentalism and convey Islam's peaceful nature.

"Education is needed for followers of Islam because radical Muslims don't properly understand their own religion," Maldonado says. "The proof of this lies in the Qur'an. The Prophet Mohammed did not tolerate extremism. He said, 'This religion is too powerful to be taken to the extreme.'"

Why didn't the blue state patriots get him first?

Maybe because they are unable to tell the difference between terrorists and cartoonists.
