This I don’t pin on Islam. He could have converted to any faith. Being a mental case came first.

" A neighbor held him at gunpoint until deputies arrived "

Sounds like Texas.

There are three books that I have read that basically made no sense, that were written by madmen. My Struggle by Hitler, On Capital by Marx, and the Koran.

Yeah. No connection, nothing to see folks, move along.

A neighbor held him at gunpoint until deputies arrived and arrested him on burglary charges.

Who knows how many more he could have killed. This is just aweful.

His sister said she was not aware of such a case. From the article:

Thomas’ sister, Ka’Tara Price, 24, of Houston, said she believes anger and Thomas’ conversion to the Muslim religion influenced his actions. She said she is not aware of him suffering from any mental illness.

I doubt this was because he was muslim, clearly the family dispute was a long time simmering and he snapped. Guess more info will come out in the trial.

While I'm not completely immune to your logic it seems rather clear this guy only perpetrated this type of crime after conversion to Islam.

Islam has problems but I don’t believe someone converts and it causes them to run amok. There had to be serious issues before. The conversion itself was probably a sign the guy was off.

I agree with you. I read somewhere, when people were navel gazing about Lindh (American Taliban) that it was curious that his family did not note or take interest in his conversion to a Muslim faith because, while numerous conversions to various faiths are legitimate, it can sometimes be a marker for personal rejection your family, culture. Said another way, this man probably had mental disorders (yep, plural) and was growing increasingly rage filled and began taking steps to distance himself. I think it’s likely he began harboring thoughts of killing them before he became a Muslim. Sort of an excuse to kill when our culture would never accept this behavior.
It kind of reminds me of a aboriginal tribal shamans who used to make a show of getting drugged up on the local hallucinogenic plants in order to excuse several hours of violence and rage and prophecy they had in mind etc.
It’s like a bloody ‘the devil made me do it’ way of attempting to escape his own vile evil.

Look..the left pulls the same logic when a Christian runs amok. Or a homeschooler does.

Yes, the Koran and Sharia are abominations. But it also happens sick people are drawn to them. That is what I suspect here. You’ve read the Koran. I’ve read it. We didn’t flip out. He was a head case before Islam.

“What we’ve been able to identify at this point, is that there is an ongoing internal situation within the family,” said David Maxwell with the Texas Rangers. “The dynamics of this family, (that’s) what’s precipitated the horrific crime that has been committed.”

Family members have previously told 11 News that Thomas was acting bizarre in the hours leading up to the slayings.

Cedric Thomas’ widow detailed statements purportedly made by Moran Thomas before the slayings. She described the statements as “out of character.”

“He was saying that all black women, all they do is put voodoo on people and that all white men are devils,” said Stephanie Thomas.

She said Moran Thomas was arguing with some of his family members on Saturday, and the argument had something to do with Cedric, Moran’s younger brother.

“Cedric and him were close, so I think he thought they were probably doing something wrong to Cedric, or treating him wrong and he probably got defensive to that,” she said.

Stephanie Thomas said her brother-in-law kept the family’s shotgun in his room, but she never thought anything of it.

“They live in the country,” she said. “They kept it there. I mean, I didn’t see anything wrong with them having a shotgun in the house. I mean his mom knew, his stepdad knew.”

I think that can be said about all these terrorists. In fact, I think it is part of their requirements to become a terrorist. First, you must be mentally unstable. Next, you must be indoctrinated into the radical aspect of the Muslim faith and weak enough to believe their rhetoric and hatred. Third, you must be trained to kill, and kill with no remorse or concern except for your own selfish belief that you will go to Heaven where you will be rewarded.

The 1-2-3 of their requirements for the fools who are willing to take up their crusade.

Islam is a demonic death cult. Of that there can be no question. The perp joined that death cult. The perp then proceeded to go on a murderous rampage. Here is the table of events:

a.) Dumb ass becomes a Muslim.

b.) Dumb ass starts absorbing the Islamic pro-death philosophy.

c.) Demons oppress and possess said dumb ass who opened the spiritual door.

d.) Demon possessed dumb ass murders a bunch of innocent people.

e.) Demons all high-five each other “TOUCHdown!”

f.) Dumb ass is arrested, charged, convicted, executed.

g.) Dumb ass goes to Hell to meet his demonic mentors.

End of story.

Yes. In fact, feeling the urge to convert to Islam at this point in history, when you’re living in Texas and have (apparently) no Muslim family background, is a sure sign of pre-existing mental illness.

A pity he didn’t terminate the murderer with extreme prejudice - It would saved the state of Texas time, trouble and money.

Why did you read the Koran? You seem to be defending the vile words of Mohammad. What is the difference between this character and other Muslims who cut off heads.
