I hope the people who met Shumpert at his barber shop are being watched closely. And did he ever attend any area mosque? What is taught there? What did they think of Shumpert? Of course, if approached now they will say they always abhorred him, but did they contact authorities about his jihadist tendencies?
"Rainier Valley barber shop owner flees U.S.: Facing sentencing in plea deal, he phones FBI to say he's in Somalia," by Paul Shukovsky in the Seattle Post-Intelligencer, with thanks to Cindy:
Ruben Shumpert, who federal agents allege made his Rainier Valley barber shop a kind of "anti-American training ground for Muslims" where children were taught "how to shoot and fight the Americans," has telephoned the FBI to say he won't be going to prison anytime soon.Shumpert, who faces sentencing on federal counterfeiting and weapons charges, has fled to Somalia.
A warrant has been issued for the arrest of Shumpert, who is also known as Amir Abdul Muhaimin, Assistant U.S. Attorney Bill Redkey said. He was to be sentenced Tuesday.
Shumpert -- an African American convert to Islam -- was among more than a dozen, mostly African immigrants from Islamic countries arrested by the FBI's Joint Terrorism Task Force two years ago on a mix of charges, including immigration fraud and bank fraud.
Shumpert was never charged with any terrorism crimes, but court documents paint a picture of his barber shop at 7821 Rainier Ave. S. as a gathering place for adherents of radical Islam where he showed children videotapes of "fighting, shooting and killing with images on Shumpert's computer screen of al-Qaida and the Taliban."
Shumpert had been free on personal recognizance and was facing sentencing under a plea agreement when he fled the country, Redkey said. Shumpert called an FBI agent on the Joint Terrorism Task Force from Somalia, Redkey said.
I'm glad he wasn't my barber. I'd be worried about having a HEAD cut.
Why would he call and not just disappear? He is either lying, bragging or attempting to throw them off the trail. It doesn’t matter which it is, this story is not over.
All's well that ends well. he's gone and can't come back, and this idiot thinks he WON? He's in Somalia!!! last time i checked Seattle is a much better place to live than in the A hole of the world. Ha Ha.
Good Luck pal! enjy the FREEDOM and great Quality of life you have in store for you.
OT but... Since but USA and Canada are home to many RED-BLOODED Yanks, Rednecks and Canucks.. and both USA and Canada are also home to whiny pasty liberals and commies I have an idea..
ALL the lefties move to CANADA.. in return we take all the redblooded PISSED-OFF Canadians into our fold. Then we create a HUGE WALL on the border since we won't need to speak to each other again. Of course all the islamos will have to go to Canada as well.
If the Candians don't like this idea.. what else can we do? Divive North America East-West? Or send all the libs and the islamos to Eurabia?? I'll give up Europe to fend for themselves if I NEVER have to see another burka or a head scarf EVER AGAIN!!
I'd rather farm for my own food and lower my standard of living for a while... I KNOW the Red-Blooded people staying behind.. waving goodbye to the Libs and their islamic friends will surely re-establish a thriving civilization once all the blood-suckers are gone!! We'll make fuel from coal if we have to.. get oil form countries other than Middle east.. and we'll pump oil from the Gulf and ANWAR if that's what it takes to be INDEPENDENT!!!!
germaninamerica i'm Canadian and i'd never wish all thge Islamos on my worst Enemy let alone my Countrymen, but i do agree that the PC crowd is not helping us get the truth out. North America WILL wake up before it's too late. have faith.

Good call.
This uncivil barber will discover that in fleeing to Somalia he has ended up in one of the least hospitable places for the trade he plies, and that furthermore he will get a real dose of wonderful Islam in a place where the Infidels are not around to exploit or rely on. Somalia won't be pleasant. How long will he remain, Shumpert not Schumpeter, before he can stand it no longer and decides to return to the good old U.S.A. to face the music provided by the Infidels, rather than continue to endure the stony silences of fun-hating Islam, the real Islam of the Islamic courts, in grim and war-torn Somalia?

DUGGY I don't want to be selling you Canadians out it's just that I believe we must separate from the liEberal fools among us.. and I am trying to conceptualize how this can be done. I left Germany many many years ago because the atmosphere of PC in Europe was simply TOO STIFLING for me. I am a libertine at heart. I am NOT a bible thumper or anything like that. I just want to DO AS I WISH as long as what i do hurts NOONE else and so far it hasn't. I used to abhor guns and viollence and I still do - which is exactly WHY I wish to be AWAY from islam as far as i can possibly be. Furthermore I take German historical responsability seriously and I am disappointed that Germany as a whole has sold out on this responsability. We need to do more than to give money to Israel here and there. We more than anyone else should be responsible for her survival and well-being.
I am glad you are more optimistic than i am. What I mean to say is I'd rather live anywhere than to be among islamos. All I want is to live in freedom to do the things i want to do in life. Americans call this the "Pursuit of Happiness". I am not asking for much and I don't ask for anything from anyone else. But I cannot STAND to see my tax monies going to states that are hostile to Israel - AND the US and Europe - Egypt, PLO and Paki-land among them. We are financing our own destruction!
of course the Liberals wish to have us join in their miseries they create for us all... but like in Star Trek.. we need a saucer separation.. How can we independents claim a land we can live in in peace and without foolish PCorrectness forced down our throats??!!

THAT is FUNNY!!! Good one, Hugh! Unfortunately I think he'll find the jihadist trade to be more lucrative than the barber's trade. Like another poster said.. he'll simply go from cutting hair to cutting heads. Sad to say but true.
Didn't the Beltway Snipers live in Washington for a while???
I wonder where they got their haircuts...

..and he'll find head cutting to be a very profitable trade indeed...

But the islamos ARE your worst enemy, DUGGY :-) LOL
germaninamerica I respect your POV. I'm like you i just want to live in peace. i'm not religious either .I support anyones faith as long as it hurts noone and does not put me in Bondage.
the reason i feel that we will wake up eventually is that in N America and specifically Canada , we have never been ruled by a Tyrant and have never been slaves so we really don't know what it's like, but we will get a taste of it soon and i think the free people of the world will NEVER give up FREEDOM or LIBERTY or basic HUMAN RIGHTS. I have to believe that we will not just go Quietly into the night. I have to. I could not beare to live in a world without hope. We can make a difference .
It seems that any place Muslims gather becomes an "anti-Americana training ground" for shooting and fighting. A good reason for not having Muslim gathering places in the land of the infidels.
Maybe he specialized in beard extensions.

Too much fun.. riffing on the riffraff.

I just realized.. "FREE ON HIS OWN RECOGNIZANCE". While FACING SENTENCING!! Here's just ONE MORE EXAMPLE of a jihadist "FREE ON HIS OWN REGOGNIZANCE". And now he is outside the reach of justice he was supposed to face. where is Rainier Valley anyway? Just so i don't ever move anywhere near there!
he flead to sumalia hmm want to bet hes still in the usa hiding in a mosque
If there was ever a case for high bail (flight risk) this was it. If the turd made it to Somalia it may be just as well. Trying to prosecute him in Washington state might be futile anyway.
I wonder how many infidel moles Ruben Shumpert 'accidentally' removed whilst applying the finishing touches with his cut-throat razor...or ears for that matter.
Ooops...
German in America:
"where is Rainier Valley anyway? Just so i don't ever move anywhere near there!"
It is in Seattle, WA in the shadow of Mount Rainer. A totally liberal city. I live on the other side of the mountain, we aren't liberal.
I hope he enjoys Somalia and never comes back.
GermaninAmerica: I live in Seattle and can tell you that Ranier Valley is not in the shadow of Mt. Rainier ( as "watcher" posted above ). Few Muslims live under the shadow of Mt Rainier at 14, 000 ft.
Rainier Valley is an ethnically diverse district in South Seattle that stretches as far north to Renton. It is located on Rainier Ave.
I don't get my haircuts there.
A late night, off-topic, conspiracy theory:
Four dead women in New Jersey along the highway. Placed in a pattern. All light-haired. Each head turned towards the East.
Well, it seems like he was welcoming jihad before he left. Now he'll get the opportunity to strut his stuff over in Somalia since they're itching for war with Ethiopia. But I wouldn't be too shocked if he begs to be rescued by the evil US if he's caught by the Ethiopians. All of a sudden idiots like that realize what their country of citizenship is and then the taxpayers get to pay for his return trip home.
I attended several years of grade school at Brighton Elementary School. We lived on Kenyon St.
We lived in Enumclaw before that; in the shadow.
Then we moved to the other side of the mountains; east.
How did he get out of the country? I find the lack of detail on this suspicious. He should have been flagged by every airline, cruise ship, and border agent once it was decided he would be free pending sentencing. If he left by conventional means that didn't happen and somebody screwed up. If he left by means of a jihadist smuggling operation, that's far, far worse, since it's evidence our borders have been penetrated without our knowing how and where.
I believe there are many Islamo-fascist home-growns as well as infiltrators, and they all are buying into the violence and spreading the hate.
Soon, they will sabatoge and kill again in the USA.
We cannot experience true security, as it requires a total police state, and that flies in the face of freedom.
Even extreme security measures like those Israel practices cannot stop the invaders.
This kind of fiasco is bound to happen again somewhere, but I'll never willingly surrender any freedom for security because of it.
ALL the lefties move to CANADA.. in return we take all the redblooded PISSED-OFF Canadians into our fold. Then we create a HUGE WALL on the border since we won't need to speak to each other again. Of course all the islamos will have to go to Canada as well.
hey l had to laugh after l was pissed off someone wants to dump lefties and muzlims on my door step. no l have a better idea, put them in some cesspoolstan. Canada is a great country, most Cdn are conservative, you know the silent majority. you just need to listen to those of us who do not live on Toronto or Ottawaa's doorstep, we do speak closer to the Conservative values most Americans value.
\
you have this guy on the run, where he is not important, once caught in the US he will have his ass in some jail. if he tries to live in some cesspoolstan, he will problably wish he never left and become human fodder to some islamafacists. hey let him go to Sudan, where government forces would sooner kill him than imbrace his sorry muslim ass.
This uncivil barber...
Indeed, the barber of unseville, yet, like Figaro, still a schemer, deviously plotting for the benefit of his master.
This guy had a close shave with the law. Now the dude supposedly in Somalia. Hope he stays there and finds some sharia.
Since none of them can swim, or wish to learn, it would be good strategy to send them all to Madagascar.
I used to live in Seattle, and Rainier Valley was where the first Italian immigrants settled in the early years of the last century, and where, because of the large number of Italians, it was known as "Garlic Gultch!" There still is (or was) a couple great Italian delis along Rainier Avenue when I left in the early 1990s.
Over time a lot of African Americans settled in that area (as in the case of other North American cities in the 20th century). It became a tougher neighborhood; but when I left the area, the phenomonen of African American converts to Islam was not perceived to be the danger that, ultimately (and, in retrospect, no surprise) it has become. Hard to imagine, though, that "garlic gultch" is now home to some home-grown jihadis! HELP!!!
So CAIR gloated over the fact that the 9/11 hijackers were in America because of poor security and a flawed Immmigration system since them weren't American-Muslims , but since 9/11 CAIR screams every time people take the advice
and seal up those hole in Immigration and Security .
So now we have CAIR telling us that these BAD untrue Muslims smear islam and America doesn't do enough to stop this false image of it, BUT , CAIR also uses Psychological terrorism to inflict fear upon Security forces so they don't go after these same BAD Muslims which will result in law suits, Racism claims, financial terrorism from job losses , and death threats from Muslims upset at the false Islamophobia that keeps Hooper employed
between bashing Christians and "The Jews" .
In the UK Police are now told to avoid arresting Muslims during Ramadan or if they are in a Mosque , but this sets up a 2-tier justice system and will make the Mosque a refuge for Islamists wanting to hide.
DUGGY:
One of the reasons that Canadians have been relatively apathetic about jihad is because the concept of a theocratic police state is so very abstract to the bulk of the population. As Paul Berman theorizes in his book "Terror and Liberalism", the problem with the genuinely small "l" liberal mind cannot comprehend the mindset of its ideological totalitarian opposite, whether of the far left, far right or religiouis fundamentalist variant.
That's why we have so many numnutzes here like the supposedly anti-facist, anti-myscogenist NDP leader Jack Layton who think we can talk "peace" with the Taliban or look to Syria and Iran to help end the sectarian violence (which is what it is and not an "insurgency" against an "occupying force") or think that the reason that there isn't an independent Palestinian state is because Israel is standing in the way of its creation and not the Islamic obsession with irradicating any of the "Other" that they cannot subjugate.
waterdragon52
Sounds like Jack Layton is committed to that peace process, so............
We should send Jack Layton himself to negotiate with Hezbollah, Hamas, Taliban, Iran, and Syria! or whoever, solve all the problems. He can lead by example!.
Hopefully, he could keep his HEAD about it!
"Rainier Valley is an ethnically diverse district in South Seattle that stretches as far north to Renton."
By "ethnically diverse" read mostly African-American -- a place where Michael Richards would not want to walk around after hours.
This is the kind of thing I would like to see more of, jihadists deporting themselves to jihadiland. We incur no expense either for flying him out of the country or housing him in Prison. This is a win win situation for us, hopefully others will follow him.
i cannot help laughing at this. in the uk, we have been unable to deport criminals back to Somalia because it is Too Dangerous, the poor things might get hurt.
is ironic the word i am looking for ?
wow. i wonder what would have happened if i went in there for a haircut, wearing my proud to be infidel t-shirt. would this crackpot be wanted for murder too? maybe a scissor attack to the dome? thank you man made religion for bringing on armaggedon.

Sadly we will have to have our own Terrorsist attack here before people see this for what it is. I wish it would not have to be so , but the people i know and most of Canada for that matter are Grossley Uninformed. why the Western Media is not making this Education priority #1 is beyond me. we all have a stake in this.
We'll learn, the hard way , but we will learn.
