"And I also think that some here will not believe it even if there is overwhelming evidence that he is just a troubled young man."

Considering what this kid did yesterday, I would say that is incontrovertible evidence that he is not only troubled, but crazy beyond belief. I'm curious about who prescribed the anti-depressants for him? A GP at the Infirmary, a GP that he or his parents chose to treat him, or a shrink?

I’ll bet that the vast majority of murderers have never taken any antidepressants. I’ll bet though that the majority of them have eaten carrots. Therefore according to your logic, it’s the carrots.


Check out these murderers:

There is a strong possibility that he was a convert to Islam.

“Ismail,” the other son of Abraham, is said by the Bible to be the progenitor of the nomadic Arabs.

But according to Islam, Ismail was the son Allah chose to be his prophet, not Isaac.

Ismail is the way it is spelled by Muslims.

Ax suggests a weapon used to destroy, perhaps to destroy idolatry. It also occurs to me that it sounds like “Ismail X,” which would be a typical Black Muslim name.

No, we don’t know for sure that he was a Jihadi. But everything is consistent with it, including the evident premeditation in these mass killings. Maybe he was insane, but this was not a sudden outburst of insanity. It was planned. He bought the guns weeks earlier, and he had the necessary green card to do it, not a student visa. He had the lock and chain so he could bar the door to the building. And many other indications of deliberate planning.

I, too, would like to see the full note. But the ATF and the FBI have consistently covered up all instances of domestic Muslim terrorism, and I would be astounded if they did anything else in this instance. There have been a large number of cases of “Sudden Jihad Syndrome” in the US. But few people know about that, because the authorities and media have buried the details. They wouldn’t want to scare us or risk the possibility that people might get a bit . . . Islamophobic.

So, maybe he was nuts, maybe he was drug ridden, but I suspect he was also acting out the usual Muslim fantasies.

Just point of information: The Hebrew for Ismail or Ishmael is, phonetically spelled: Yishmael. First letter is a “yud” which is pronounced like Y.

Ismail is also a computer programming thing. My techie son tried to explain it to me, but it went over my head. He also said Ax is a gamer tag. Maybe our trusty researchers here can find more.

“You’re still not convinced that Islam is a ROP, are you? What will it take for you to see the light?”

;)

I don’t know.

Have to listen to Bush more and have it drummed into my head.

...this page, where a similar-looking guy is refered to as "ismael ax".

The correct spelling, indeed on that page is, "ismail ax"

Cordially,

“Well if he was it will be covered up by the media, or the very least it will be downplayed. Now if he was a Christian on the other hand...err, well you know where I’m going!”

Sure do!

You’re absolutely RIGHT!

“The gunman suspected of carrying out the Virginia Tech massacre that left 33 people dead was identified Tuesday as a English major whose creative writing was so disturbing that he was referred to the school’s counseling service.”

Just saw this—

Blaming antidepressants for murder is like women blaming their menstrual cycle

Antidepressants don't kill people do

You missed what I said. The shooters stopped their prozac and THEN went postal.

I’m not a chemist, I only know what I’ve read.

The prozac does work, as long as you keep taking it. You stop, and all hell breaks loose with your body chemistry.

So I’ve read.


And you have read right. If theese drugs are stopped improperly, it is worse than when they were on them.
They have to be stopped, by cutting back on them and also under doctors orders.

I haveread about them for years and everytime someone say, what has happened.....why are these people killing people...etc....Andrea Yates for example...check the drugs they were on.

Where is the outrage in America over these drug lobbying companies.

GREED, GREED, GREED.

It was my possible scenario on the Savage thread, as well.

Another meaning of “Ishmael” is “social outcast” according to my dictionary.

He was mentally ill.

Nothing makes sense or will be logical.

I wonder if the arabs realize they are half Jewish? And, yes, their illegitimacy negates any claim to the land that God promised to the Jews.
