The Minneapolis papers have ignored this story, and the only identification of the attacker as a Somali Muslim migrant comes toward the end of this video report. The Minneapolis media seems determined to ensure that no one get a negative impression of the Muslim migrants as they continue to flow into the area in large […]
Minnesota: Muslims investigated for ISIS ties include theater student, father of four, and jujitsu instructor
Everyone around them no doubt assumes they are “moderate,” because if they don’t, you know, the “Islamophobia” charges come down fast. “Father, hacker and jujitsu instructor among Minnesotans under investigation for ISIS ties,” by Stephen Montemayor, Star Tribune, November 19, 2017 (thanks to Blazing Cat Fur): The former Edison High School theater student had changed […]
Minneapolis mayoral candidate Raymond Dehn proposes disarming cops after Muslim cop kills unarmed woman
Better yet, how about just disarm the cops who, like Mohamed Noor, are only on the force to demonstrate Minneapolis’ commitment to “diversity,” rather than because they’re competent to be police officers? Even better still, how about hire and fire cops based on merit, rather than for their value as trophy Muslims or Somalis on […]
Legal loophole means Muslim cop who killed unarmed woman may never face criminal charges
This is indeed likely, since Mohamed Noor was a golden boy, a showcased trophy: a Somali Muslim on the police force. He was kept on the force despite his manifest incompetence, and now it is likely that the Minneapolis political establishment, as committed as ever to playing identity politics with the force rather than hiring […]
Street signs after Muslim cop kills unarmed woman: “Warning: Twin Cities Police Easily Startled”
“The signs refer to a statement from the Bureau of Criminal Apprehension (BCA), which said police officer Mohamed Noor’s partner Matthew Harrity heard a loud noise before she was shot dead.” Noor also told friends that he was “startled” just before he killed Justine Damond. These signs are good, but a more accurate satirical sign […]
After Muslim cop kills unarmed woman, Muslim leader to meet with police chief to set out “changes I expect”
“Warsame does believe change is necessary within the police department — and he hopes it starts with newly appointed police chief Medaria Aarrondondo. ‘I haven’t spoken to Rondo yet, but I will have frank discussions with him and I will put in front of him the changes that I expect.’” Why does Abdi Warsame think […]
Minneapolis: Witness may have caught Muslim cop’s shooting of unarmed woman on camera
Meanwhile, in her statement saying she asked Police Chief Janee Harteau to resign, Minneapolis Mayor Betsy Hodges said: “For us to continue to transform policing — and community trust in policing — we need new leadership at MPD.” We need more than that. We need an apology from Betsy Hodges (and her resignation as well) […]
After Muslim cop kills unarmed woman, Minneapolis mayor reassures Muslims, warns against “Islamophobia”
It is increasingly clear, as we learn about Mohamed Noor’s nervousness and jumpiness and lack of respect for women, and from his own account of events that he relayed to friends (that he was “startled” and reacted by opening fire), that Mohamed Noor was not cut out to be a policeman. He did not have […]
Muslim cop tells friends, not investigators, he was “startled” by unarmed woman he killed
Now he feels as if his colleagues have thrown him under the bus. But it isn’t hard to understand their reluctance to stand behind him. Officers ought to be able to stand being “startled” without opening fire. This revelation only makes it more likely that Noor was only on the force to head off “Islamophobia” […]
Minneapolis: Muslim cop who shot woman in cold blood had three complaints against him
We don’t have any indication at this point of why Mohamed Noor killed Justine Damond. There is no evidence now that he is a jihadi or that this was a jihad attack. But with three complaints against him in two years, he seems at very least to be dangerously reckless and/or incompetent. His presence on […]
