A spokesperson for Eric Holder’s Justice Department reports that over 100 FBI have been dispatched to the scene to investigate reports of possible Islamophobia and anti-Islamic backlash.

In my opinion there is no other question, and it should be asked and answers demanded over and over and over, and eventually those responsible need to be held accountable.

Otherwise that’s it. Zip, game over.

Oh, no. It’s another case of attempted “workplace violence”...

Nah, this was obviously an instance of "anti-government protest."

Another Isolated Lone Wolf incident, not a true representative of the ROP.

You know, Obama’s Executive Amnesty is not confined to Mexicans. How many Islamic “dreamers” are there in the U.S.?

No reason for you Freepers to be concerned ... it was merely another esteemed follower of the Religion of Peace ... trying to commit another act of workplace violence ... while practicing his religion.

Workplace accident? [/s]

The Hasan Bureau of Investigation has already
arranged for the help of Holder’s past law firms,
if not the DO”J”, to handle the protection needed.

Well, if he’s a Saudi, he’s probably related to one of the Princes. Obama will be sending home on a plane tomorrow, like he did with that guy at the Boston Marathon Bombing.
