“The Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office is investigating a deadly shooting early Monday morning at the Islamic Society of Tampa Bay….Authorities say the public is not in danger. They believe the two men knew one other and were both attending prayer services at the mosque.”
Police “believe the two men knew one other and were both attending prayer services at the mosque,” and assured that the public is not in danger.
Beyond this particular incident however is another danger and a worrying trend regularly seen within Islam: violence against fellow Muslims. In an article “Muslim Killing Muslims by the Droves”, about 12 million Muslims have been killed by their coreligionists since 1948. Violence is sanctioned in Islamic texts while condemned in Western democracies. The West should be a peaceful haven for everyone.
Although this case may possibly have absolutely nothing to do with a religious squabble, it is concerning that the West continues to import the broader ills of the Islamic world. At the height of the refugee crisis in 2016, a refugee center in Germany was burned down following a dispute among residents over Ramadan meals.
“Shooting in Islamic Society of Tampa Bay parking lot during Ramadan event leaves one man dead”, by Sean O’Reilly, ABC Action News, May 20, 2019:
TAMPA, Fla. — The Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office is investigating a deadly shooting early Monday morning at the Islamic Society of Tampa Bay.
Deputies say just before midnight, two men got into an argument in the parking lot outside the mosque during a Ramadan event attended by several hundred people.
At some point during the argument, one of the men fired at the other.
An off-duty deputy, who had just finished working security detail at the event, heard the gun shots and rushed to the parking lot.
The Sheriff’s Office reports the deputy found one man holding a gun and another man who had been shot at least two times. The deputy detained the suspect shooter until additional units arrived on scene.
Paramedics rushed the victim to Tampa General Hospital where doctors pronounced him dead.
Authorities say the public is not in danger. They believe the two men knew one other and were both attending prayer services at the mosque.….

Must be another Islamophobic anti muslim hate crime.
It seems that muslims seem to be the biggest Islmaophobes of the lot.
mortimer says
Inter-Muslim sectarian violence erupts somewhere every day. It could be a personal matter of course, but more-Muslim-than-thou rivalry is rampant.
It’s RAMADAN, everyone, so wait for some big fireworks near the end of it in three weeks. Then, if you hear, ‘Allah akbar’, you be sure to dive for cover.
Emmie says
It’s just Ramadan-bang-bang.

Must be the human instinct. They can smell it and they don’t like it. This is where I agree with Moslems.
screw u says
Lets see them try the Islamophobic line with this one!

juline says
The killing increases in Ramadan month they believe that killing in holy month for them they have more Virgins to have.
CRUSADER says
Irshad Manji said it is mistaken to think the Koran spoke of virgins.
The true meaning of houris apparently is raisins….
Obviously, Irshad’s “ijtihad” independently thought this up!
(At least she calls Islamic attacks as Islamic attacks…)

Lynn says
I hope Irshad is right. Imagine a soldier of Islam arriving in paradise and being issued 71 raisins. The look on his face!
FYI says
But these are no ordinary raisins.
These are al Lah’s SPECIAL Raisins:beautiful,full breasted,flame haired,perfumed and juicy
Every drooling Abdools fantasy..
Al Lah may be one legged and have 2 right hands{..according to Christian Prince on You Tube..}but he knows his raisins.
Emilie Green says
Police said “both attending prayer services at the mosque” and, because of that and other things known about Islam, weren’t surprised at the violence “since Muslim prayers are filled with hatred.”
ploome says
so what’s the bad news?
roberta says
Its one of those ”feel good” stories. No bad news, sleep well tonight.
My mistake. Bad news, it was not a murder/suicide story. But at least the goat did make an escape during the commotion.
Halal Bacon says
so um, does this disqualify the dude from getting into Valhalla? no petting zoo concubines?
keya says
Probably the one shot was not Muslim enough. So he had to go.

Sounds like more Muslim-on-Muslim violence. I just hope this isn’t flogged as “Islamophobia” by some idiots.
Emilie Green says
“Authorities say the public is not in danger.”
When Islam’s in your community, country, everyone’s in danger. Even other Muslims.
FYI says
They were both attending islamic “prayer” services.
We know what happens when the Holy Yusufs say their “prayers” to their false pagan Arab god
{al} Lah {“the BEST OF deceivers” k3:54}:it doesn’t end well.
al Lah: a god with one leg and two right hands…that’s who they “pray” to…
WPM says
The only people who because they skip lunch for one month have to kill someone because of the pressure of a 12 hour “fast”! Happy Ramadan hid the knives, guns ,baseball bats ,take away car keys during daytime hours low blood sugar gets them Moslems in anise in the pantie mood to kill the first person they see unbeliever or fellow Moslem .
Beneath the Veil of Consciousness says
5 shots to the buttocks? Sounds like the cause of death must have been severe brain trauma. Another case of Muslim on Muslim racism. What are the authorities doing to stop this? 12 million people murdered since 1948 at the hands of fellow Muslims. That averages out to about 450 murders a day. Islamic greeting, “Here’s my head my ass will be along in a minute.”
PABLO says
Can you imagine the MSM outcry if the shooter was a white guy and all else regarding the shooting remained the same? CAIR had to put the Islamophobia outcry on hold.
PABLO says
A Muslim killed another Muslim with a gun and for some uncanny reason I am not hearing the MSM or libtards, I know, they are one and the same, screaming for more gun control.
Frederick King says
Muslim control would be a better idea. As their numbers increase, trouble and violence increase. “honor killings”, violence against jews, church graffiti. You know the routine. Like when gangsters take over a neighborhood.
Rod says
These kind of pointless, borderline hate-mongering articles didn’t happen when Robert Spencer was around. I miss him.
PABLO says
Please point out what part(s) of the article is/are borderline hate mongering.
gravenimage says
The idea that reporting a story of Muslim-on-Muslim violence is “hate mongering” is quite false.
I miss Robert Spencer as well, and hope he is back soon.
But the implication that Spencer never reported on Muslim-on-Muslim violence is untrue.
Frederick King says
As usual, this did not make the Yahoo news.
SamB says
The Shari’a, Qur’an and the Prophet sees as senseless the debauched Bible. It a sources of tempering that nullifies the 10 axioms given in Exodus. Thus, as described above two of those axiom were disregarded, not to kill, and not to have more than one wife. Putting this in perspective, as long as the American and Christian culture is disabused by Muslims the more likely such behaviors are to be entrenched in the minds. It will do practicing Muslims well to heed American-Christian culture- to respect one another, and despite Muslim reservations see the 10 axioms called commandments as non-negotiable. The Shari’a has no place in America but in its root society-Arabia\Pakistan

I’ve worked with Muslims. During Ramadan, they are a bit edgy. Ya think one went over the big edge?

Reading your comments make me sick in my stomach. How sure are you that you are not making fun of the right God religion? Did you read about Islam enough to make sure that you picked the right path for your life? Quran is taking about people like you. Afterlife is not going to be as much fun for you all. Jesus himself will be asking God for your deserved punishment. Enjoy your life for now and have fun!!
