#1 he had done well in school until he began attending a local mosque
Someone might want to investigate that mosque. It would seem to not be the one the family attended.
His parents said they fear him and that he needs help.
And they may even have pumped up the story a bit in order to try and get him that help, even if it involves law enforcement.

#2 all he got charged with is terroristic threats? saounds like a big charge but it's really not. An attmepted murder for the stabbing would have alot more effect for jail time or just ship into a jihad zone so he can get his wish and free bullet in the head.

#3 The lad won't be able to get a passport now, he will be put on a watch list...and he'll get some time in jail to ponder the situation. Back outside in Minneapolis/St. Paul that mosque is going to enjoy the close and continued attention of the local police as well as various branches of the Feds...and members as well as visitors will get the Hawaii treatment.

This nation's gratitude should go out to whoever called the cops on Junior's little adventure.

#4 "The Dark Lord and I," said Moody [Barty Crouch, Jr.], and he looked completely insane now, towering over Harry, leering down at him, "have much in common. Both of us, for instance, had very disappointing fathers.... Very disappointing indeed. Both of us suffered the indignity, Harry, of being named after those fathers. And both of us had the pleasure... the very great pleasure... of killing our fathers to ensure the continued rise of the Dark Order!"

#5 Funny. Every time I see "Minnesota" and "jihad" in the same sentence, I think "Somalia." I wonder why that is?

Oh yes, I must be a racist. I denounce myself.

#6 That's the first thing I thought, too, JD - Minnesota+jihad=Somalia. Guess I'm psychic.

#9 Psychic, you say? So maybe I'm not racist? Whew!

This is actually pretty pathetic. Marmaduke or whatever couldn't even get out of the house, let alone to other side of the globe to wage glorious jihad in the name of Allah. I'm no clinician, but it sounds similar to Jared Loughner - standard male 20-ish-onset schizophrenia, untreated by a family either ignorant or in total denial.

The guy was a meth head and a muscle head. Schizophrenia, maybe, but brought on by "self-medication".

#12 Oops. Wrong psycho.

Loughner was a pot head, in some ways worse than a meth and muscle head.

#13 I dunno, badanov, none of the potheads I've known have been violent or even overtly self-destructive (unless the pot was laced wite PCP or the like), while virtually all the methheads were.

#14 Loughner was into "salvia," which is kinda contra-indicated for schizophrenics.

#15 Contra-indicated for non-schizophrenics too, but you get the point, I hope.

#16 It's still a race between Michigan and Minnesota to be the first state that needs to be retained by the union with force.
