Terrorism? Naaaahhhh!

When a person

  • enters a busy public place

  • heavily armed

  • with the intention of killing as many people as possible

  • with no regard for even his own life

  • resulting in six deaths including his own

  • wounding four others

what would YOU call it?

Oh, and this person also just happens to be an 18 year old Muslim.

SALT LAKE CITY -- The FBI said Wednesday it has no reason to believe the shooting spree that killed five people in a shopping mall was an act of Islamic terrorism, leaving a young Bosnian immigrant's motives a mystery.

"It's just unexplainable," FBI agent Patrick Kiernan said. "He was just walking around and shooting everybody he saw."

Sulejman Talovic, 18, fired randomly at shoppers Monday, killing five and leaving four others with bullet wounds before he was shot dead by police. . . .

I was just checking out random blogs and I ran into yours.

The news is both shocking and sad. Innocent people have died and their families are suffering and will continue suffer from the absence of their loved ones for the rest of their lives.

What could motivate an 18 yr old boy living in the U.S. to do something so horrible?

Let us all pray to God for peace, love and guidance.
