Rutherford County Sheriff’s deputies are investigating a complaint about shots being fired near the construction site of the Islamic Center of Murfreesboro on Veals Road off Bradyville Pike.

A group of congregation members were at the site looking at the damage done to construction equipment over the weekend when they heard nine shots fired from two directions.

Around 3:15, they reported hearing six shots coming from one direction, and about three minutes later they heard three more shots from another direction, said Saleh Sbenaty, a congregation member and MTSU professor.

He wasn’t sure if the shots were being fired at the Muslim group, but in the aftermath of the weekend vandalism, he said they felt it necessary to report.

1. This is getting damn too scary

[Angry Dragon]

2. Only so many different ways revolution can go

What makes this country unique right now is that we have a lot of revolutions going on and no one knows which side will win.

[lobodons]

3. Only a matter of time

I can't wait. Just sitting back and watching the idiots destroy America!! Who needs Al Queda? We have Glenn Beck.

5. i know right?

its hard to believe these morons dont realise they are being told to hate their country and that its an increasingly awful awful place..


but then again i forget, they dont care about this country..
just themselves and the flag they wear.


its just like beck encouraging people to buy gold instead of investing in the dollar...

yeah, thatll solve the countys economic problems eh ?

such lack of faith in this nation from a group that proclaims it perfect.

[Ozymanithrax]

4. More isolated terrorist incidents...

Damn but I'm tired of this.

[nadinbrzezinski]

6. Usually we might call this a PATTERN

But these are not brown people speaking with an accent.

[Ozymanithrax]

7. They are isolated because no one wants to publicly call the right wing sound machine...

on what they have done.

We have demagogues that are pushing this, and no one can say, have you know shame, and get it to a wide enough audience.

Besides, If just 1% of the people are crazy that is three million dedicated warriors for right wing isolated incidents.

[gerenimox]

8. so the genocide of 1 million muslims is an "isolated incidence"?

[Ozymanithrax]

9. Actually, we were discussing what is happening here, not wars in the middle east.

and though many have died, and war crimes have probably been committed, it has not been a systematic attempt to wipe out all Muslims, so it is not "genocide."

GENOCIDE
: the deliberate and systematic destruction of a racial, political, or cultural group

Now, back to the topic of isolated incidents where right wing crazies, mostly Christian, have been committing atrocities that no one wants to call terrorism.

Several deputies are at the scene investigating the incident, he said.
One piece of construction equipment was damaged over the weekend when it was burned, and three other pieces of equipment were doused with some sort of accelerant, Sbenaty said.

11. dammit

[rfranklin]

12. A Glenn Beck celebration of the Second Amendment...

Isn't that the one that canceled the First Amendment? :+

[Bette Noir]

13. I hope the FBI is involved.

And, as long as Gitmo is still open, I hope the good Christian terrorists who are persecuting Americans of the Muslim persuasion get to stay there as long as the "War of Terror" lasts, like the terrorists on the other side.

[yellerpup]

14. I can SO get behind that idea.

This is madness. :kick:
