DC: Catholic U in lockdown after “Middle Eastern” man makes “terroristic threats”

Dec 8, 2015 11:43 pm By Robert Spencer

The “shelter in place” order has been lifted now, and D.C. police have “located the suspicious person.” Now no doubt there is a long line of Catholic priests lining up to engage in “dialogue” with the poor dear, hoping to explain to him how Islam, at its core, is a religion of peace that has been tragically misunderstood. They will fix this problem up tout suite.

Catholic University

“D.C. police locate a ‘suspicious person’ at Catholic University,” by Martin Weil, Washington Post, December 8, 2015:

Catholic University students were advised Tuesday night for the second time in less than 24 hours to shelter in place while authorities investigated a report of a possible armed person on campus.

Just before 9 p.m., the D.C. police said they had “located the suspicious person.” About an hour later, the university said it had lifted the shelter in place order. It also said that the person who prompted Tuesday night’s alert was not the same person who was sought during the alert that began early Tuesday.

The Tuesday night alert was sent about 8:30 p.m. and advised members of the university community to shelter in place while D.C. police and the university’s public safety department investigated a report of a possible armed man.

A similar alert was issued about 1 a.m. Tuesday. Authorities said that they searched but that no one was found.

The university said the earlier alert was initiated after a custodial worker reported being approached Monday night by a man with a weapon.

The man reportedly approached the worker at Pangborn Hall about 10:30 p.m. Monday, and asked directions to the administration building.

In a message posted Tuesday on the university’s Facebook site, the university’s president, John Garvey, offered an explanation of the overnight response. He said the person had “made claims that sounded to our custodian like terroristic threats.”

A description provided on a university social media site said the individual had a Middle Eastern appearance….

    Just being suspicious, appearing to be a terrorist, making comments that sound like threats is all a part of terrorism. It keeps people on edge…for awhile, which means they are in fear of what might be about to happen. Then if nothing happens, the guard goes down…the *cry wolf* thingy…and the real threat is carried out in an actual attack.

    It’s like a vicious dog. that doesn’t meet the stranger in an all out assault of biting and clawing. He barks a lot, growls some, but then doesn’t do anything more as the stranger approaches near. As the person passes cautiously by and the dog doesn’t attack…maybe it even turns away to smell of the ground…the person relaxes. But the dog is not done. He comes in from behind and bites the back, the back of the legs, etc.
    The terrorists are not done.

      It looks like Trump is forcing real hairy naked Islam down everyone’s throat and into the popular media culture… with a little help from Muslim terrorists. Bush, MSM, and the establishment political parties refused to do this when they had their chance on 9/11. Clinton refused to do this when we had his chance with the Trade Tower bombing in 1993. The MSM, academia, and the establishment political parties all hate what Trump is doing, but they can’t stop him or do anything about it. They are his pawns.

      Once everyone understands who and what Islam and Mohammed stand for, we can effectively defend ourselves against all these inhuman savage barbarian beasts. Moderate Muslims breed and support more dangerous Muslim beasts to kill us. They do their part too.

      Trump is now pushing for elimination of importing ANY more Muslims until we all know what they are about. That will be a great day. Nice going Trump. Keep your cool while all hell is breaking loose. I will enjoy watching. If Trump wins, we win.

        On Monday or Tuesday, i saw an item ( i admit-did not read) that MUSLIMS IN AUSTRALIA, EUROPE AND THE MIDDLE EAST WERE UPSET AT TRUMPS STATEMENTS.

        Those in the Middle East-I can understand. But those in Australia and Europe- they escaped the shit holes of the Middle East, and are turning their new places into hellholes. Do they have to fuck up every place that they live in?

    The first thing Jihadists trash is our sense of security, followed by a myriad of special treatment demands, all of which amounts to standover tactics on a grand scale. As we become accustomed to this type of treatment, the notional exit point from our relationship with Islam recedes further into the distance. Perhaps we should just be grateful that our wives, daughters, sisters and friends aren’t yet being put up for sale at slave auctions like the hapless women trapped by the new Caliphate. The church hasn’t been very vocal about much of this suffering. so a days drama at a Catholic University may at least bring some reality centre stage.

    Donald Trump is correct. Just like Jimmy Carter did during the Hostage Crisis, use the 1952 immigration law to not only keep the islamists from coming into our country but to deport some of them already here. Carter deported over 15,000 ragheads and pit National security ahead pf dam Political Correctness.

    The press and the RINO candidates obviously have no clue what President Carter did and that those laws are still on the books. Idiots, every last one. We need to stop electing stupid people and elect Donald Trump in 2016.

    The result of dopyness when dealing with islamofacists is death and annihilation. Catholic priests take note.

    You can be tolerant and respectful and understanding all you like in the vain hope of winninig Muslims over as friends but they will give no quarter in return. Catholicism for Islamists is the epitome of evil and with manifestations of homosexuality and child sexual abuse at the heart of the temple of their god. Islamists have utter contempt for a religion whose priests consume alcohol. For Islamists Catholicism is an abomination. It is used to demonize Christianity as whole. Wiping Catholicism off the face of earth is the moral religious duty of Islamists. They have utter contempt for you. Appeasement won’t work for you. It will only work against you by increasing your misery and hastening your demise. Your stupidly in appealing to islamists will be the end of you.

    Seems like the guy was trying to stand out, either to gauge the raction from the University staff or to do the sequel to the “Flying Imans”.

    Oh no! A Middle Eastern appearance. Quick! Call Loretta Lynch. They’re profiling. Sounds like her “Worst fear” is coming true.

      Dec 9, 2015 at 6:34 pm

      Caroline, calm down. The MSM and liberal apologists will say that the man was probably an Israeli Jew, working for Mossad. Therefore, the Middle Eastern appearance.

      And recall- the Boston Marathon bombers were white.

    • Oliver says

      Dec 9, 2015 at 7:01 pm

      Caroline, relax.

      The liberturds in academia and the government and the church will change that -or modify it– that he spoke with a Yiddish (Jewish) accent, and probably is an Israeli Jew ( although, I would guess form those Israelis I know, maybe 1 out of 4,500 -and they would be elderly and from either the US or Europe and newly arrived in Israel) would have a Yiddish (Jewish) accent. And then probably amplify that he was (is) a Mossad agent trying to stir up trouble

    I suspect the reason that many Catholic officials want to whitewash Islam is simple: greed. I am really beginning to think that the goal of the Catholic church is to somehow, some way, integrate all these Muslims into the Catholic church. Imagine what their bottom line would look like if they had a BILLION more people contributing at mass?

    And yes, I know that’s illusory, since “Muslims” don’t have “money” but I still think it’s a possible, albeit completely illogical, motive.

    This “lock-down” should serve as yet another example of the folly of the idea of “interfaith meeting” with Muslims. Still, the way that a lot of people are ,they just don’t get it, many people who make the claim of being Christians will still engage in the foolishness of trying to have “interfaith fellowship meetings”.
    Those same professed Christians to read the teaching of the Bible in Ephesians 5:11.

    What I find really strange about the first instance. 10:30 PM ASKING WHERE THE ADMINISTRATION BUILDING IS. AT 10:30 AT NIGHT.????
    That is suspicious

  13. Oliver says

    Dec 9, 2015 at 6:57 pm

    What would be — or should be a cause for concern– ASKING FOR DIRECTIONS TO THE ADMINISTRATION OFFICE OR BUILDING AT 10:30 PM.

    10:30 AT NIGHT??????

    That is a cause for alarm, by itself.
