Police: Parking dispute sparks 3 North Carolina killings
CHAPEL HILL, N.C. (AP) — A long-running parking dispute between neighbors motivated a man to kill a woman, her newlywed husband and her sister at a quiet condominium complex near the University of North Carolina, police said Wednesday.
A Muslim advocacy organization asked authorities to address speculation — much of it on social media — about possible religious bias in Tuesday’s shooting of the three Muslims.
“We understand the concerns about the possibility that this was hate-motivated, and we will exhaust every lead to determine if that is the case,” Chapel Hill police Chief Chris Blue said in an email.
The couple had graduated from North Carolina State, and one was studying to be a dentist at UNC. The sister was an undergraduate at N.C. State. UNC’s chancellor called it a loss for both campus communities, and the school planned a vigil Wednesday evening. SOURCE
OK, I wasn’t there, I didn’t see what happened so, most of MY commentary will be based strictly on opinion and speculation.
First and foremost; I am NOT an Islamaphobe. To be an Islamaphobe would indicate that I am in fear of Islam and/or its practitioners, I don’t fear Islam and I don’t fear Muslims.
What I fear is an American government that is so tolerant that it allows the formation of Muslim courts in America, courts that judge those that come before them under Sharia law.
What I fear is an American government that is so tolerant that it won’t stand up for American citizens taking up for themselves and their God given rights because they, our government, fears insulting Muslims and being thought of as not being 100% politically correct.
Craig Stephen Hicks may indeed be a cold blooded killer, he may have gunned down his *neighbors*, Deah Shaddy Barakat, 23, of Chapel Hill; Yusor Mohammad, 21, of Chapel Hill; and Razan Mohammad Abu-Salha, 19, of Raleigh because of religious disputes OR he may have taken all of the abuse he could take, or was going to take at the hands of these people and their Muslim self-righteousness as they forced their *No God other than Allah* and *convert or die* beliefs on him.
But outrage spread among some American Muslims who viewed the homicides as an outgrowth of anti-Muslim opinions. Many posted social media updates with the hashtags #MuslimLivesMatter and #CallItTerrorism.
“Based on the brutal nature of this crime … the religious attire of two of the victims, and the rising anti-Muslim rhetoric in American society, we urge state and federal law enforcement authorities to quickly address speculation of a possible bias motive in this case,” Nihad Awad, of the Council on American-Islamic Relations, said in a statement.
Personally, I find it strange that CAIR is so enraged over this; outraged and blinded by their own hypocrisy as they DEMAND that this be called a HATE CRIME!
I wonder? Were these same Muslims as outraged at the burning death of Lt. Muath al-Kaseasbeh and the beheading of American Kayla Mueller?
The rising anti-Muslim rhetoric in American society mentioned above is REAL, at least among those of us that don’t have our heads buried in the sand as the U.S. Congress and Senate allow this nation to be taken over by members of Islam and make NO effort to remove Sharia law from our nation.
Muneeb Mustafa, 23, of Cary, said he attended the same Raleigh mosque as Barakat.
“He was a completely genuine guy. Loving, caring, friendly, smart,” Mustafa said. “He was an ideal human being. He was a role model.”
He was a role model? For whom? Islam doesn’t have any room for loving, unless it’s a goat, caring, unless it’s caring how you behead your victim or building your bomb correctly, friendly, with anyone actually, or smart people, at least in their interactions with non-Muslims.
As I said, this commentary is MY opinion, none of it is based on facts, but if my intuition is any indicator we will be seeing more Americans standing up to Muslims in this nation, but I fear we will also see the American government standing up FOR Muslims.

I’m like you, Fred, not knowing much about this incident. I strongly believe that the outrageous things the “radical” Muslims do elsewhere and in the US will continue to foster dislike for Islam generally, particularly if the “moderate” Muslims continue to keep quiet, instead of eliminating or at least openly opposing the radicals, or to work toward the same goals that the radicals seek gradually and without fanfare.
I think that they do not realize that just because the president and his pusillanimous followers are weak of will, there are tens of thousands of Americans that won’t put up with their crap.
“I am NOT an Islamaphobe. To be an Islamaphobe would indicate that I am in fear of Islam and/or its practitioners, I don’t fear Islam and I don’t fear Muslims.”
Precisely. I fear no Muslim. I do my best, however, to expose their demented view of the world via their Death Cult.
It’s plain and simple: Obama won’t call Islamic terror what it IS because he was RAISED around them. He sympathizes with Muslims. No more complicated than that.

Islam means submission in Arabic, not peace. Islam cannot be changed or reformed. To suggest this would be blasphemy and warrant a death sentence. I urge the readers here to read some of the many books that explain to us kafir, exactly what is required of a practicing muslim. In Texas, an imam was quoted that a practicing muslim is above the law of the land. Everywhere you look, people are apologizing for this shitty “religion”, even the Pope. Apparently we have to give the subjects of our former USA more time to allow the moderate ragheads to stand up and demand reform of their sacred texts, as if 1400 years is not enough. WE THE SUBJECTS, are just not smart enough to grasp the true beauty of following the example of the perfect man, MO HAM HEAD, who just wanted everyone in his religion to be a pedophile, a slave owner and an administrator of justice through the teachings of the koran, the hadith and the sura.You will never see me use the caps key when I refer to this muslim faith. The term “islamaphobe” was a made up term to terminate arguments against islam, just as “racist” and “bigot” are used by progressives to halt an argument that they cannot, with any reason, win.
Sorry for the rant Fred. I just watched Gretta and I am always amazed by the fact that these talking heads can make so many suppositions about the facts that are missing to make any argument a sensible one. Sounds to me to be a case of a neighbor who just had enough. We cannot know what set this dude off and the lamestream media will spin it to sympathize with the muslim as a victim meme.
I really believe your thoughts that People have had enough of this political correct crap that they are gonna take…as for me, I am sick of the crap… I sick of the SOB in Washington stroking his goat herding brothers and tossing America under the bus as he has for over 6 years….This crap about Muslim courts in America….let’s say we move to Iran and demand the American Justice system for Americans…I am sure the would comply right??
I am just sick of the mess this bastard has caused..
