Memphis jihadi wannabe arrested for making bomb threats

2009-12-25

Tonight, Mohamed Ibrahim is out after posting $100 bond. Earlier in the day, he was arrested after police say he walked into several Memphis businesses and threatened to blow them up. Court records show Ibrahim was also telling people he was Muslim, and wanted to start a jihad, or holy war, in Memphis. Police say when they arrested him, he had a butcher knife hidden in one of his jacket sleeves.

I'm confused. The Muslim man is walking around with a butcher knife up his sleeve and making explicit threats of jihad, so the authorities turned him lose?

#4 The bond appears to be excessive and possibly rascist. Things like this still do happen in the South. He's such promising looking lad. Why can't we all just get along?

#3 Even a loonie can do major damage. I hope the police released him with a homing chip in his shoes.

#2 He was either a) drunk, b) homeless c) a loony well known to the local legal system.
