A Delaware state trooper was fatally gunned down outside of a convenience store by devout Muslims reciting quotes from the Qur’an, later prompting a standoff with one of two suspects, who fired at cops, police said. Here again is another important news story getting no coverage from the enemedia.
A reporter for the DelawareOnline tweeted, “Scene indicates the trooper was shot multiple times. There’s a lot of blood on ground, multiple casing markers. Still huge police presence.”
Police said that one of the suspects was taken into custody at the scene and the other one fled into a residence in the Brick Mill Farm section in Middletown and is firing at police, said McQueen.
“The suspect has refused to surrender and is firing rounds at officers,” McQueen said, adding “this is a sad day for our state.”
Meanwhile, area schools were placed on lockdown.
The Appoquinimink School District posted on Facebook, “We have been notified by police that an armed individual is in the Dove Run Shopping Center. The police have set up a perimeter. As a precaution, ALL area schools have gone on lockdown.” (NYP)
Any reports of this cold-blooded killing have all references to Islam, Quran, and motive scrubbed from the reportage.
“EXCLUSIVE: State Rep. claims DSP trooper’s killer was a ‘budding jihadist’ Muslim,” by Rob Petree, Delaware 105.9, May 8, 2017:
Was Burgon Sealy Jr., the man who shot and killed Delaware State Police trooper Cpl. Stephen Ballard, radicalized? Delaware State Representative Steve Smyk claimed that Sealy was a practicing Muslim, and that he did in fact yell verses from the Quran during the standoff.“What I can tell you is that there are people that will immediately assume that the war cry of, the Muslim war cry of ‘Allahu Akbar’ may have been said, and I don’t know that to be true. I do know that he was a ‘budding jihadist’ and that being said, how long was he a practicing Muslim, I’m not aware of,” said Rep. Smyk. “We do know that, at the scene, during this standoff he was heard siting quotes from the Quran, what those quotes were I don’t know.”
Listen to the interview with Delaware 105.9’s Rob Petree, Rep. Smyk calls Burgon a “Budding Jihadist” here.

Islam the religion of killers says
Bulldoze his Mosk and boot out the Imam …
Dave says
Agree. Angola has done it
Jeanette says
I’m not aware of what Angola has done. Has Angola run the Muslims out, or eliminated them?
If they have only been run out, then the rest of the world is having to deal with them (except Poland, of course – no more jokes about the Poles not being smart; they and the Angola citizens are smarter than the rest of the world, apparently).
The only ways the world can be free of Islamic Abysmal Behavior are 1) eliminate all of them, or 2) confine them to a region of the world, stop all flights into that region, and severely sanction any country that gives a Muslim a visa.
Stewart - South Africa says
Angolan authorities were clever – they have not banned Islam outright but made a law which demands proof of a minimum number of adherents of any religion, before it can be recognised as a religion with all the benefits official recognition brings, including building of mosques etc.
IIRC the number is a few hundred thousand and in Angola there are not that number. If the number should grow I expect they could revise it upwards!
gravenimage says
Dave, this is a myth–but a damned persistent one:
“Angola denies it banned Islam, destroyed mosques”

Bill says
Another grieving family and a good life taken away. Will reserve judgement on the Islamic connection to this murder until more facts surface, which may take awhile since the fake media likes to bury facts that do not fit any narrative it is trying to sell.
If the perp is a “white nationalist”, I would expect to have confirmation from the media on that in a matter of hours, maybe minutes. That is a narrative they are always selling.
StacyGirl says
Please let us know when that confirmation is made.
Bill says
Have you made up your mind on the subject?
StacyGirl says
Reserving judgment on the Islamic connection after it’s been confirmed he is Muslim?
Jeanette says
Delaware State Representative Steve Smyk claimed that Sealy was a practicing Muslim, and that he did in fact yell verses from the Quran during the standoff.“What I can tell you is that there are people that will immediately assume that the war cry of, the Muslim war cry of ‘Allahu Akbar’ may have been said, and I don’t know that to be true. I do know that he was a ‘budding jihadist’ and that being said, how long was he a practicing Muslim, I’m not aware of,”
Why is that not enough to make up one’s mind, barring finding out that Representative Smyk was actually lying?
What difference does it make if he didn’t actually say “allahu akbar,” if he was reciting other Koranic passages, and was known to be a budding jihadist? And what difference does it make how long he was a Muslim – it only takes seconds to fire a gun or slit someone’s throat.
gravenimage says
Right, because “white nationalists” are always reciting the Qur’an…
Jeanette says
And I’ve noticed those odd-shaped scimitar sheaths on so many of their belts, too.
Stan Lee says
Even today at a Senate hearing, Democrat Senators were trying to pin a label on Pres.Trump that he is bigoted against Islam for having ordered a temporary travel ban and entry into the U.S.A. from Muslims of six Muslim-dominated nations. Six Muslim nations, originally named by the Obama regime, is only scratching the surface of the directives from the q’uran obeyed by most Muslims, foreign or domestic.
Muslims were repeating Muslim prayers as they shot and killed the Delaware State trooper in today’s news reports.
And, the write-up questions whether a Muslim shooter “was radicalized?” What a ridiculous question, plainly while repeating a Muslim prayer, he shot the Delaware trooper! I doubt if that shooter was motivated to murder because he didn’t care for the color of the Delaware State Police uniform!
Of course the shooter was radicalized…praying to Allah while shooting a law officer! “Radicalization” is a silly question by a silly MSM more interested in dispensing lies than the truth, plus the “cover-up” element. One of the Muslim shooters has an American-sounding name. If so, he was radicalized to jihad. The question whether he was radicalized is ridiculous and the trooper is dead. The other shooter escaped, is holed-up now and shooting it out with State Troopers. I suppose the same question of whether he, too, was radicalized will be repeated. The MSM in a leftist state like Delaware can’t handle the truth. Why do we place any reliance upon such “journalists?”
Laura says
I heard a report on cable news that said an ACLU atty stated if a different President had issued the travel bans, there would have been no lawsuit! WTH???
gravenimage says
Trump is hated by these thugs. And actually, the countries had been selected by Obama, not Trump.
Anne Smith says
For “radicalised” read “devout”.
Then it makes sense.
Jeanette says
Or just skip the qualifier altogether and call them merely Muslims.
Murderers are murderers, but the left is always looking for some way to excuse the Muslim murderers. “Oh, poor thing – he was radicalized, so it wasn’t his fault that he murdered seventeen people. Let’s let him go free so he can murder some more.”
Savvy Kafir says
Agreed! Qualifiers such as “radical” and “extremist” simply confuse those who know little about the true nature of Islam.
“Devout Muslim” gets right to the heart of the matter. The more devout, the more dangerous.
Keith says
Don’t forget that “we may never know the motivation of the shooter”, or doesn’t that one get bought out in the US. Anything to hide his motivation and religion over here in the UK and Europe.
pfwag says
Some day, hopefully before it is too late, America will wake up and realize that Islam is at war with us and has been since the founding of America..
Michael Copeland says

Don Foss says
The only Americans who don’t know it are the fools who let the “elite” media and their nutty professors do their thinking for them. Granted, that’s a pretty sizable percentage of non-critical thinkers in the US. Along with that, they’ve been brainwashed to think we are the dummies. It’s an upside-down world.
Jeanette says
Even the people who are trying to warn Americans are not as emphatic as they should be.
We should be seeing information on Muslim female genital mutilation, for instance, so that Americans that have heard of it don’t think it’s a relatively minor procedure no more severe than male circumcision.
Educate the women of America on what FGM really is, and on the fact that Muslims are beginning to call for ALL females worldwide to be forcibly Muslim mutilated, and we will have Islam in America licked quickly.
But instead, we use mealy-mouthed expressions that don’t give anyone a real idea of how much horror we are talking about.
somehistory says
The moslims killed the officer and the media will skewer the rep for daring to tell the truth..
The perps of murder and assault come and then the aiders and abettors after the fact, so as to absolve islam and its adherents of the guilt..
Don Foss says
Thank Eric Holder, who did it with Blacks also. Jeff Sessions needs to take the leash off our law enforcement agencies across the country. It’s still early and a lot of mess to clean up.
Carlos Danger says
Exercise your first and second amendment rights.
Encourage others to do so as well.
Consider joining the National Rifle Association to protect your rights (even if you do not own a firearm).
Ethel Red says
We can have firearms in Canada and many, many Canadians have firearms. I encourage all Canadians to take the required gun safety course and obtain at least one firearm. I am a senior now and all my kids are hunters and their friends are hunters and are safe, non-criminals and will never give up their guns. Look to Venezualla and the predicament those people are in.
Jeanette says
Venezuela, Great Britain, France, Germany.
Notice Switzerland does not have the problem that most of Europe has. And which country still has armed citizens? Switzerland.
Belinda says
Like what you have stated, it have no idea of how to protect myself! If I even had a weapon I wouldn’t know how to use it. All I have is a phone to call 911 and if the phone doesn’t work then I don’t what to do after that!!!
John A. Marre says
It’s not possible to be optimistic about the future. The future will be a constant series of murders by Muslims, who then get to be sanitized into lone wolves, domestic terrorists, workplace shooters and random attackers.
The current president isn’t doing anything about it.
The entire media and democrat party is actually on the side of the Muslims, protecting them every step of the way, and not caring one bit about the innocent people murdered by the Muslims.
Carlos Danger says
You can’t depend on the Government, or the police to protect you. Be prepared to defend yourself.
Undaunted says
Yes, Carlos… absolutely.
Savvy Kafir says
Undaunted — I like your nom de guerre. We all need to embrace that fearless attitude, no matter how bad it gets.
Savvy Kafir says
True that!
Savvy Kafir says
Not all Democrats or Lefties are siding with the Muslims, or defending Islam — although I admit that FAR too many are.
I usually vote for the Dems, in the hope that they’ll get serious about developing green energy, etc. (Could not vote for Hillary, though.) But I realize that Islam is opposed to pretty much everything I love and believe in, and poses a serious threat to the civilized world. I know of a few other Lefties who are very critical of Islam — such as Pat Condell, Sam Harris, Bill Maher, and Ayaan Hirsi Ali — and hope that more & more of them will wake up before it’s too late.
Lor says
Very sad for the young officer gunned down and the family he leaves. Some of us know that jiihadis especially promote attacking law enforcement without provocation .
Just this evening my husband had CNN on and I was really annoyed (to put it lightly) that they were repeating the “A ban on Muslims” phrase as they covered the ongoing hearings (think it is in the 4th circuit now). President Trump NEVER used the words “A Ban on Muslims”) when referring to the TEMPORARY ban on travel visas for people from a number of predominantly Muslim countries. But when CNN keeps repeating “A Muslim Ban” , I cannot believe this will do anything but create more fuel for already and becoming radical Muslims to get more of their “ire” up. Really not helpful.
CrossWare says
I am sure it was only a cultural misunderstanding and after a couple of dead police officers, he will learn to only cripple his victims. All hail multiculturalism!
Ed Lee says
Pamela, are you sure about this? I have searched 10 news articles from ABC, CBS, Fox News, Newsmax, One America News, World Net Daily, and have not found any mention of an Islamic connection. I did a key word search and looked for “islam”, “muslim”, “koran”, “qur’an”, “terror”, “verse”, “recite”, and “allah”, and got no hits. It seems unlikely that every one the diverse outlets that I searched would have omitted such information if there were witnesses to back it up. I am as concerned about jihad terror as anyone else who posts comments on Jihad Watch. But, as I learned a long time ago, one “aw shit” wipes out 10 “atta boys”.

“Delaware State Trooper shot to death by jihadis reciting Qur’an”
Dang shame…
Fortunately, we know, that will never happen here in the US of A, where our good Muslims, reportedly, “assimilate.”
What …?
You mean, like, Delaware is here… in the US of A—are you sure about that?
Debi Brand says
“A Delaware state trooper was fatally gunned down outside of a convenience store by devout Muslims reciting quotes from the Qur’an,”
Do they have any idea on what the motive could have possibly been?

“Sealy was a practicing Muslim….”
Well that explains it; one need know no more.

This poor man–his poor family. I can’t believe this savagery is now a part of the West.
And Muslims target police because they keep Infidels safe.
LR says
I can understand news outlets waiting for more info. and confirmation to come in before labelling someone a terrorist, or Jihadi.
News orgs. are suppose to be correct, and not put out info. if there are possible conflicting reports, or not enough facts.
Keith Jordan says
I suppose you think they were reading the Koran just for amusement?
Warren says
In the end the only way to deal with fascist Islam is to rid your country of Muslims, it must be done. Islam can never be part of any western society. Islam is a backwards barbaric culture that is here to destroy everything it comes into contact with. When will people wake up.

You said it so well.

Lizzie — if we’re counting on “the Lord God” to step in and fix this problem, I think we’re in big trouble. Maybe we should take some steps ourselves, to halt the threat of Islam. Just sayin’…

Who cover up this information? I like to see the State agency or Fed agency that had this info and held on to it exposed. The shooting happen on 4/27/17 that is over 10 days ago. Will the media look interview his Iman No? Another lone wolf in the pack of lone wolves spilling blood in the 4 corners of the world.

Why waste time prosecuting this scumbag the cops should have just shot that SOB on the spot as well as the rest of those Demonic Creatures spewing that Garbage from the Quran once they get a Prison Sentence all they do is solicit other prisoners to join there cult. They are a Cancer & Islam the Quran & need to be eradicated.
Johnny says
Plainly, you didn’t even bother reading about this case. The police did shoot and kill the perpetrator. The confrontation started when the officer approached a suspicious situation. The killer, Burgon Sealy, was a convict in the illegal possession of a firearm. None of our local news picked up any Islam connection. From the looks of it, it was just some stupid criminal who panicked and decided that he was going to avoid jail at all cost.

Stupid criminals always recite the Qur’an as they gun down police officers…sarc/off

Marya says
As far as I can see, the only way this is going to be halted in the US of A is by a complete “prohibition” of this ideological belief system. Historical accounts and current day news articles of our Law Enforcement Officers being gunned-down should be all the proof necessary to conclude that a *prohibition* is needed.
I do believe it would be a good idea to get videos of what’s taking place all across Europe due to the immigrants that carry this ideology as their religious belief system. This is really not a good time to be shy or feel awkward about sharing this information with family, friends, or even strangers.
This is becoming a case of survival and self defense for Americans since it is plain to see this ideology’s intentions are quite dark. Scripture tells us we have a choice to choose between *good* and *evil*; we must choose the *good* and by all means we must *defend ourselves, our family, and our entire nation!*
Each one of us that have knowledge of this dire threat; we must sit down with our family, our friends, our neighbors, and even our pastors and clergy to warn them of what’s happening. It is imperative that they know of the danger that we’re all under! Call your Senators, Congress, and all State Representatives to inform them of these horrific crimes; demand that something be done to prevent and further atrocities! Start printing articles such as this murder of a Delaware police officer, and distribute them everywhere!
