Nicolas Cruz has been arrested after opening fire on a Florida high school on Ash Wednesday, leaving as many as 17 dead and up to 50 injured. According to a former math teacher of Cruz at the school, he had been previously identified as a security threat and had been informed last year that he wouldn’t be allowed on campus with a backpack.

FOX News: The suspected gunman arrested in connection with Wednesday’s shooting at a Florida high school was identified as Nicolas Cruz, a U.S. official told The Associated Press.
Local media reported he was an 18-year-old former student of Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, north of Miami. While some teachers said he demonstrated warning signs, Superintendent Robert Runcie said he was not aware of any specific warnings the school district had received regarding the shooter.
An Instagram page apparently belonging to Cruz showed pictures of guns and knives.
Superintendent: ‘Numerous fatalities’ in school shooting
One student told WJXT that “everyone predicted” the shooting, which killed multiple people, according to police.
“Honestly, a lot of people were saying it was gonna be him,” the unnamed student told the news station. He said kids joked around that the student would be the one to “shoot up the school.”
“It turns out, everyone predicted it,” the student said, adding the suspect knew the layout of the school.
“Yeah, he was on the third floor. He knows the school layout, he knows where everyone would be at as of right now,” the student said. “He’s been with us in fire drills, he’s prepared for this stuff.”
Sheriff Scott Israel said he didn’t know why the student left the school, as he was not currently enrolled.
A teacher at the high school told the Miami Herald the suspect was seen as a potential threat in the past, as he allegedly threatened students last year.
“We were told last year that he wasn’t allowed on campus with a backpack on him,” Jim Gard, who claimed to be a former teacher of the suspect’s, told the Herald. “There were problems with him last year threatening students, and I guess he was asked to leave campus.”
One student told WSVN he “stayed clear of [the suspect] most of the time.”
“My time in alternate school, I did not want to be with him at all because I didn’t want to cause any conflict with him, because of the impression he gave off,” the student said of the shooter.
UPDATE: I have been unable to confirm if earlier reports of a Facebook page belonging to Nicholas Cruz is indeed his.

This is islam, this is how problems are resolved by muslims. It is at the point of “kill or be killed” How do you like the obimbo legacy of islam in America so far?
These camel dung sniffing thugs need to be dealt with at the fullest of the Law/Execution! – Heck, not that many years ago an defendant all seasons hunt would be the case. THIS is BULLS#IT – just like the lawless Borders CRAP, Barry (&Clan) need to be brought to JUSTICE! Are the ILL -Loons protecting Barry because they’re sure he Will be the Son of Perdition?!
We cower, we Die! Men Time to Grow a Pair Now or turn yourselfs into pink Slime & be diner!
* If your in this Country illegally (BS ON DACA) you’ll have to dealt with by the Already existing LAWS! AMERICAN’S Are the only Dreamers we care about, You have no say in the matter, pray for our mercy, we owe You nothing!
*The views posted above do not (necessarily) those of the host But they are of most American’s – Forget this koom bye yah Crap, we have Americans who are being slaughtered by these bumb thugs, they can kiss my BUNG HO!
The killer hated Muslims, derided them as “terrorists and bombers”, was seen wearing a Trump hat, was obsessed with guns and the military, and was in the Junior ROTC.
He had a penchant for wearing patriotic shirts, and is wearing a U.S. Army hat in the above Instagram photos. In another Instagram account, nikolascruzmakarov, he’s wearing a MAGA hat.
The above “Allahu Akbar” screenshot was captioned, “Well at least we now know what it means when a sand durka says ‘allahu Akbar.'”
So, Pamela, he could be one of your fans. Check your past comments for a Nikolas Cruz.
Apparently, Pamela dug up a Facebook account of the wrong guy, probably a leftist with a similar name, smeared him, and then deleted all of that stuff, leaving only this update: “UPDATE: I have been unable to confirm if earlier reports of a Facebook page belonging to Nicholas Cruz is indeed his.”
Pathetic. Disgusting.
You’re absolutely right. I’m a conservative who has actually written for the Geller Report, and I am ashamed by this type of reporting. I am equally ashamed of the idiots swallowing this BS whole without second guessing anything. Shameless reporting. There are plenty of reasons to vilify Islamism. We don’t need to make things up Pam.
“nikolas annihilator” face covered with a bandanna, wearing a MAGA hat, posted photos of guns including an AR-15, same guy. A schoolmate said he was seen wearing a Trump hat.
all religion, particularly in modern times, is a study in contradiction. you can make the same point about anybody who identifies themselves as jewish or christian too.
That, my dear Zero, is not the way it is. Perhaps you should look at the basic premise of every religion, islam is based on lies and violence, there are only a few perverted cults who believe that.
Unfortunately, there are many Muslim Nationalists who keep spreading the racist LIE that Zionists “steal people’s land”. It’s not true.
Pro-Zionists like me or Trump not only support a democratic Israel, but we also support a democratic IRAN. So does Ms. Geller. Zionists are very reasonable and fair people.
Dennis Prager (also a Conservative pro-zionist) supports Muslims like the Kurds having their own homeland too.
Read professor Dershowitz’s book “The Case for Israel”.
well it’s simple, kuran isn’t criminal at all and only apply violence against those who attack us physically in response and even when it’s justify you can’t do what you want, you have to respect rules for prisoners and don’t kill innocent people, that’s it disbeliever.
You are an uneducated boring illiterate and rather stupid muslim. Is there any other kind? Read the qur’an, so far you have demonstrated that you haven’t.
Agreed. Predictably, the politicians are crowing about some simplistic measure involving a law concerning gun control. Gun control to me simply using both hands when you fire in self-defense.
Guns don’t kill people – Leftists, Democrats, and Islamists kill people
– All major Democrat cities have high gun crime rates
– most Chicago murders are not done by Republicans!
– most victims of gun crime are Leftists and Democrats
And it’s those leftists who are trained by the money-sink called the Department of Education, because,It’s not guns that are the problem, the US has always had them, it’s Jimmy Carter’s leftist US Department of Education which has made USA publicStudents some of the dumbest in the developed world while @ the same time subtly brainwashing them to become anti-American haters & suicidal mass murderers. It’s time for the USA to stop funding the D O E as the USA debt is too high and the results are too negative.
Yes.
– There seems to be an interaction between
– violent cultures and gun availability
– communists, Democrats, and Islamists
– have always been violent
– so when they get access to guns
– they use them a lot
Communists dont exist. This is just the way to detract from ISLAM conquering the Western world without a fight. Wake up and see who are the most dangerous. Weak Russia or 1billion three hundred million totally devoted Muslims. The usual platitude is that not all of them are murderers. But they all agree that Sharia must rule the world and millions of are ready to kill infidels or make slaves of them. Poor Hitler had been a baby compared with the Islamists. Just during their rule in India they had killed 200 million Hindu and Budhists. The crimes they will commit will be all who are not willingly become slaves.
Alex:
– the left imports Muslims and Islamists
– into the US because they vote Democrat
– and Leftists always need shock troops
– to disrupt and overthrow society
– that why we see such strong Leftist support
– for Muslims
Alex: Marx coined the term Communist [1848]
– therefore, all Marxists are Communists
– the term ‘authoritarian socialist’
– is another synonym for Marxist
all of experts on how liberals are the problem , you left out something way more important ,maybe you are just dumb, but that fat retarded orange mess in the white house was a FLAMING LIBERAL ALL HIS LIFE untill he decided to run on the REPUBLITURD TICKET iN 2009 , then he changed like magic into A PHONEY RINO REPUB dont tell me he is not a liberal RAT just look it all up and its there……. he is a PIG……
that is not the shooter. its already been debunked. that’s some other dude who’s quite prevalent on social media. Pamela, you’re discrediting yourself and by extension, our legitimate gripes w/antifa, islam etc. with this article. you need better editing, and you need to print a retraction. a lot of people are relying on you for news, and this is pretty shoddy.
Wrong again. If this is the same guy with the Twitter account MarcelFontaine6, then he’s a self-described Anarcho-Capitalist Christian, and he’s rocking the commie shirt ironically.
That’s strange because of the reports that this was a student or former student who even the kids at the school thought he would be the one to shoot up the school if anyone did.
Glad to see my ability to match faces hasn’t faded….YUP! That “COMMIE SHIRT” wearer isn’t Nicolas Cruz…AND! THAT SHIRT is a dis on “Commies”…That guy’s weird…as Nicolas is “challenged”…Maybe if they can get the “RIDOLIN”[sp?] out of his system, he’ll be redeemable…UNTIL THEN, he’s pretty much OUT to LUNCH…SAD….”PHARMAS'” FRUIT! (bad tree!)…{Matthew 7: 15 – 20!}
mary you stupid bitch everybody on the planet knows the orange mess was a huge DEMORAT untill 2009 , just look it up you ignorant ass, and then blow off your stupid comment, you are all the same jelly braindead type, oh oh frump, frump, frump, thats all you know……….
listen you jelly brained asswipe, the orange fat retarded criminal pig is a LIBERAL SCUM JUST LIKE YOU, go back to your cesspool in mexico, with all the other WETBACKS, so bend over and suck yur dick , queer boy……..
I doubt you are really Kent Ford, since you look like a smart Trump voter!! Your use of foul language makes it clear you are some phony troll, maybe obamma himself!!!
what X moron ? the clown is helping the rich, not working people, what CONSERVATIVE GARBAGE ARE YOU YAKING ABOUT? THE PIG DOES WHATS GOOD FOR HIM, keep riding on the fat clowns back thats yur type… the pig is a demorat and still is….. if the clown crapped on a plate you would eat the whole thing, yur braindead..
And Ban “Common Core” that’s chapter 36 in Agenda 21 folks, the UN’s plan to take over the world by making our children DUMB, Preaching the FAKE Climate crap and charging the Tax Payer to simply breath air and expel CO2, you know the stuff plants need to breath and live ???????
Aaaaand…. “School shooting suspect belonged to white nationalist group”
“The leader of a white nationalist militia called the Republic of Florida said Cruz was a member of his group and participated in exercises in Tallahassee.”
Most Perpetrators of gun crimes, mass shootings, and serial killings, are leftists and democrats. Haven’t seen or heard of an NRA member or supporter accused of any of that yet, but the NRA, its members and supporters always are the ones that take it on the chin (from Democrats and leftists). See how that works? It’s OUR fault!
Democrats shoot Democrats in large numbers.
– So the solution is to take the guns away from the Republicans?
– And why is Democrat-icide a problem for Republicans?
– We are not doing it, Democrats are doing it to themselves
jmc:
Conservative have guns
– to protect ourselves
– from Leftists, Democrats, and Islamists
– we have guns because
– Leftists, Democrats, and Islamists
– do most of the murders
Agreed. Have you noticed the crybabies who want to change the Constitution to eliminate the Electoral College are the very same ones wanting to gut the Second Amendment? If our form and style of government was authored by geniuses but is currently being adminstered by idiots, it isn’t our style of government in need of tweaking.
Drew:
Yes, whenever Obama and other extreme leftists open their mouths, the Communist Manifesto comes out.
– every plank of the Democrat platform
– is related to the Communist Manifesto
Coach Aron Fiest gave his life to block children from the shooter in the Florida High school. A hero, that could be alive if he had had a gun that he could have shot the killer with, stopping the killers plans for fame and power dead in it’s tracks and preventing the deaths of many more children.
He could also, having exposed himself (thus putting the children he was supposed to be protecting at risk) have been killed by Cruz before he got a shot off.
Gellar left out the part of the same article she is citing where the same kids stated he was continually stating his hatred toward Muslims, calling Muslims terrorists and bombers
Personally, I think drugs may be part of the problem, if you study their backgrounds, most of the mass shooters took illegal substances not so long before they perpetrated their horrific acts.
Wrong. Virtually every student at this school knew he was a “radicalized Muslim” (radical muslim is an OXYMORON; they are ALL radical) and capable of exactly what he did. The FBI, the local police, the school district DID ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. See “Muslim Brotherhood 30 year plan to subjugate AMERICA”.
What is the difference between a muslim and a terrorist? The qur’an clearly states that islam “is made victorious through terror”. It is apostasy to deny the qur’an.
fleeing away ? doesn’t surprise me from far right coward at least leftist are assuming that character of themselves. if you don’t have time don’t come on internet to spread your disease.
This practice is emphasized in Shia Islam whereby adherents are permitted to conceal their religion when under threat of persecution or compulsion.[3][8] However, it is also permitted in Sunni Islam under certain circumstances.[9][10]

One student told WJXT that “everyone predicted” the shooting, which killed multiple people, according to police.
A teacher at the high school told the Miami Herald the suspect was seen as a potential threat in the past, as he allegedly threatened students last year.
Superintendent Robert Runcie said he was not aware of any specific warnings the school district had received regarding the shooter.
What else could the superintendent say? If he admitted to knowing anything he would be accused of incompetence and ignoring a threat, if he did anything, the accusation would be islamophobia. A few more needless deaths, 17 sacrifices to democrats and islam.
That is the problem, the democrat muslim politically correct left, intimidates, often violently, anyone who says anything. islamophobia should be a virtue that society admires.
Our culture has become paranoid and bigoted toward anyone who tells the unpleasant truth about anything. Christian churches are suffocated with the ignorant and dangerously narrow interpretation of Scripture of “due not judge” and “we all have logs in our eye – so who are we to point out evil or danger.”
The students probably heard the telltale key words and attitude this killer projected. But the public school mantra was don’t judge; don’t be anti-Islam – he’s just mentally off.” No, this man was focused on a dangerous ideology and carried out its teaching.
I’ll tell you who is “mentally off”: The liberal educators who would ignore the signs staring them in the face.
Amen…ALL and I DO MEAN ALL…the signs were there…I am a substitute teacher and I am telling you this school & it’s faculty plus students knew he had threatened them, that he had shown enough signs that he wasn’t allowed last year in campus with a backpack, that his Instagram page was riddled with guns, knives, & Islam crap…some of his classmates even posted on the instagram that he was a sicko, etc…saying they’re gonna spit on his grave, etc…those kids should be questioned as to why they didn’t report this sicko, guns & knives crap to the school, so the school could look at the Instagram themselves, and put two & two together…ok he displayed behavior that made us nervous, he threatened kids last year, his Instagram looks like something straight out of an ISIS video and okay we need to get the police on this or get more security on the school grounds for awhile until further investigating and monitoring could take place. Every teacher, every student & every person in general who saw where this was headed is culpible in all the deaths & injuries sustained yesterday in Parkland, FL…May those who died RIP and those injured physically & mentally or emotionally recover soon. Btw…where were his parents??? Do they not monitor their sons Instagram??? Did they not get informed of his no backpack allowed rule last year by the principle? Or informed by the principle that he had threatened students last year…Or that he’d been let go from the school? I mean come on…hold these parents responsible for NOT getting their child some help.
How RIGHT you are!!! in all of this, I, too, was thinking today, “What about his parents?!?” There was NOTHING about them – their reaction, etc. – in any of the media reports today (and I heard this stuff all day on the radio, since I was nursing a cold and some flu). MUCH more has to come out, but it will be telling if nothing is said about his sicko Instagram postings!
You’re right! As a parent I had to ask questions to untwist my children’s minds after they came home from school. Teachers tell them all kinds of liberal crap and constipate their minds.
They no longer teach American History…..the true version. The “revisionists” history they teach paints America as evil and violent …twisting the kids’ minds against their own country…for the past 30 years.
I once found some old history school books from the 40s and 50s…America’s history was how great we are from our founding to that day…..in other words….true history…I’ve kept those books.
I had 3 natural children and at 45 adopted my husband’s granddaughter as an infant. By the time she was finishing 6th grade I saw the effects of Bush’s “NO CHILD LEFT BEHIND” crapola…. I took her out of the Leftist schools and home schooled her. She went to college at age 15 and had her first 2 year degree by the time she was 17.
Until people start taking their kids out of the Left’s Indoctrination Camps….we will see far worse in the future…We’ve already seen the cesspools of the Colleges and Universities….and tragically….they do this on our taxpayer dollars…..while sitting on coffers of billions from their Libtard Alumni…..
I read about the recent death of his (adoptive) mother, but I didn’t know about the father – adoptive or otherwise. Boy, no doubt absent parents are an important factor in how this young man turned to such evil!
Thank you Monica for your sincere explanation. This is truly a story not about a crazed man and guns but just how extreme Marxist ideology (also know as Political Correctness) has permeated every pore of this once great American society. it has incapacitated every element of critical thinking and decision making especially in the case of threat and harm by someone who is non-white. Officials did not respond because of being fearful of what others would say and think. The blood is on the hands of those that knew about this person and failed to come forward. But the greater blood is on the hands of those that could have acted, and chose not to. After all the school shootings in past years, and not one faculty member carried a firearm? May those children RIP.
I think it was reported this morning that he was adopted and both of them are dead….neighbors said the couple had a lifetime of problems with him….at this point I’m thinking they should look into their deaths….
Schools and teachers should be banned from talking politics at any time because this is the result. The union is the cause of all of this. All to manipulate a bigger paycheck. This is why unions should be banned from the education system and be replaced with investment portfolios. Trust me Even teachers would stop destroying our nation if they had a bigger stake in it. Are your fellow teachers satisfied?
In our left-wing world it is dangerous to inform on anybody who displays signs of a terrorist threat. The authorities are as likely to arrest us as the terrorists. In England we might be arrested for slandering our Muslim neighbors.
The whole teacher establishment/mainstream media are to blame. Every left wing propaganda machine make people angry at anything that is normal so the human brain cant equate all their BS and goes haywire.
That would require organizations like the police, school and municipal authorities to stop being bigots and racists, replacing those with concern and legitimate action.
, it’s Jimmy Carter’s leftist US Department of Education which has made USA public students some of the dumbest in the developed world while at the same time subtly brainwashing them to become anti-American haters and suicidal mass murderers. It’s time to call DC and tell them to defund the d o e and give all the money to the states to run their own education systems as obviously it hasn’t worked over the last 40 years and done nothing but make murderers and suicidal Maniacs out of USA kids
well said –another democrat creation 1979 then same nuts are barking the high cost of college and wondering why are schools are failing– democrats always f—up everything then blame everyone else and they have the msm cheer leading lying for them and the socialist teachers union
The Islamic connection will be buried just like it has been for so many other terrorist acts. Remember Ft. Hood was work place violence, they tried to get away with that but the public wouldn’t stand for it. Unfortunately, the public is becoming dumbed by PC. Mental illness, socialization issues or revenge for bullying most likely. I hope not. I hope the real reason is told.
If Islam was clearly exposed and identified by the authorities, the Great Silence is about to begin. In a day of so the lid will go on, so what was on Page One today will appear as a tiny posting on the same page as the funnies in two or so days.
Just wait for the “official statements”, which will clearly state that this attack has NOTHING TO DO WITH ISLAM.
It’s just a “person” with a disturbed mind.
Agreed. A bigger and more solid question is where and how he got the weapons in the first place. He was an unemployed nineteen year old. You have to be 21 to purchase firearms in every state but VA and they are pricey.
It is a patchwork system of gun laws among the 50 states which makes reciprocity difficult to enact. You cannot buy a weapon in AZ unless you are a resident there but no carry permit is required. Strange.
As per usual, several wrong Nicholas Cruz’s are being harrassed by the incredibly ignorant. And, yes, there is a Nicholas Cruz wearing a MAGA cap, but he’s not the killer.
Know your target. It is very detrimental to accuse the wrong person, only ignorant muslims hate every one for no reason.

I can’t even forward this to FB. They blocked me for chatting with one Nazi sympathizer, who defended Soros. I’ve told her everything what she deserved to hear. And they blocked me after all. FB explained me that it was not PC to talk to this bitch and to insult her. Is it OK with FB that she insulted the memory of all murdered by Nazis Jews? Is it OK to defend Soros?
I could write a chapter devoted to Facebook’s collaboration with Red China. This includes but is not limited to suppressing information about the Chinese magic act in which Uighurs, dissidents, Falun Gong and weibo blogs disappear without a trace. Neither is there any mention of more than twelve thousand plus peaceful pro-democracy demonstrators murdered in the 1989 Tiananmen Square Massacre.
Facebook: Manipulative, mendacious, deceitful, untrustworthy, basely dishonorable, leftist propaganda outlet and so on…
FB is completely wicked. I posted a link to a story about organ harvesting in China of Falun Gong practitioners and they literally blocked anyone from sharing it. That’s when I quit FB.
Zuckerberg and Sandberg – two of the biggest self-loathing Jews on the planet – belong in a federal penitentiary in prison orange. Hoping someone in the DoJ has the cajones to make it happen.
Congress could start the ball rolling if they wanted.

WOW, and I jumped to the conclusion it was just another democrat as most if not all the other mass shooters have been. Now we hear it may be one of the sympathizers the democrats love to protect so much. Either way, this is such a sad day for America. Or should I say ANOTHER?

You may expect a Beslan school siege redux somewhere in the U.S. at any time. The school district will be equally unprepared, MSM will blame guns, not Islam, and the Muslim community will whinge about being the real victims.
The instant a democrat says anything unpatriotic about America, heap disrespect and abuse upon them, they have spewn too much verbal feces, enough is too much.
Wow, that’ll be ugly. I can hardly wait to hear the lies the enemedia and law enforcement tell us to cover up any connections to islum or muslums though (cough, Las Vegas shooter, cough).
Our democratic senator nelson says the AR15`s aren`t for hunting but are for killing but he says he is a 2nd amendment supporter..The 2nd amendment has nothing to do with hunting dumbass…
I would expect an idiotic statement like this from a leftist democrat ….
It doesn’t matter what the configuration of the gun is, a conventional semi automatic hunting rifle preforms the same way, only is not as “scary” looking as an AR15.
Yes, every wussie reporter in the world wets their pants whenever they hear the word “AR15” OR “assault rifle” mentioned. Democrats from sea to shining sea will be all over the news the next few weeks calling for the banning of all AR15s.
I have a ball peen hammer configured for killing rather than being used as a tool. ….Typical Nelson comment. Florida voters, time to get rid of this guy in 2018
You obviously don’t know what inhabits South FL now. Liberal pansies escaped NY, NJ ect “because of high taxes and crime” to infect FL and make it just like the crapholes they escaped from.
I’ve lived there 20 years and have seen first hand the destruction they cause. I do agree more is going on, back door deals ect, but it always follows once the NY people gain a foothold. And let’s not forget supervisors of elections who always “find” ballots that swing into the column of their chosen party….democrats.

How will the “Islam is a religion of peace” liberal numbskulls spin this one, I wonder? They keep saying that these acts of ISLAMIC TERRORISM aren’t related to Islam, as if by saying it makes it true! It’s looking more and more like the liberal apologists for Islam are either incredibly self deluded or intentionally lying about it!
One of the kids that was interviewed this afternoon ID’d him to a reporter and word spread like crazy across the news agencies. Virtually every kid who was involved in the shooting knew who he was.

The perp was a textbook psychopath
– the mental health term is ‘antisocial personalty disorder’
– before they become psychopaths in adulthood
– they are diagnosed as ‘conduct disorder’
– this would have been evident since about age 12
– therefore, there was abundant time to recognize, diagnose, treat

TYPICAL LIBERAL BRAVERY in the midst of defenseless people.
No threat? News just said his expulsion was likely trigger.
But apparently known to FBI? Gee, big surprise nothing done there! FBI seems to have missed an awful lot during the last 9 years which resulted in many American deaths. But in all fairness, they were too busy spying on our President and his Staff.
Reason he wasn’t flagged on Social Media? Because Google Gestapo and Facebash didn’t see any “Conservative” clues. If so they would have alerted authorites.
Posts appearing sympathetic to Anqueefa, Care bear suppporter….they love that stuff. Nothing wrong there.
Yes Facebook and the rest of them will band use if you say Islam is dangerous but if you’re espousing killing and murdering others than it’s okay as long as it doesn’t include that.
Pauly:
Agreed. This guy did not just ‘snap’
– he had been interested in killing for years
– started out torturing and killing small animals
– very common in nascent psychopaths

OOOOOPSIE, another one of yours:
“Cruz always had his hair short and had a penchant for wearing patriotic shirts that “seemed really extreme, like hating on” Islam, Parodie said. The suspected gunman would also deride Muslims as “terrorists and bombers.”
“I’ve seen him wear a Trump hat,” the student said.”
He’s wearing a U.S. Army hat in the Instagram photos, in case you haven’t noticed. He’s giving a middle finger to “Allahu Akbar” in case you haven’t noticed, you IDIOT.
And our almost exclusively LEFT-WING educational system relentlessly brainwashes our children to believe that that filthy religion, ISLAM, is morally equivalent to our foundational religion, Christianity. If you have kids, get them OUT of the public government brainwashing machine!
Which is why, if you have kids, love them, and love America, you MUST either home-school or send them to private schools that are lib’-free (no Lefty, Commie, LGBTQXYX123 teachers or administrators).
.
Yes. 100%
Rely on Occam’s Razor. It’s almost always correct.
Or, as my father used to say, “Trust your instincts and you’ll be right 90% of the time.”

Mr. Cruz is now being characterized as an Orphan, who lived with a Host Family. A Quiet Boy” of 18 or 19 Yrs. old. The Host Mistress was aware of his Special Gun & requested that he lock it in THEIR Cabinet, but Mr. Cruz HAD a key. The School SUPER said he was unaware of any PROBLEM with this “BOY”. Every STUDENT & EVERY NEIGHBOR KNEW & THE FBI HAD BEEN NOTIFIED EARLIER. AH, but it’s All A Mystery to LOCAL LE. BUT THE “Boy” might request Halal Meals, while he’s under the care of the PC Authorities, one never knows about Mr.Cruz!
If the attacker is a Muslim than he a terrorist. otherwise, a mentally ill Yank. Double standard by the so called civilised Yanks. Every year round about 11000 Americans are being killed by the so called civlised Yanks. Sexual grooming/harassment is an American value. America is the most un-civilised country in the world.
The measure of the Yank’s civility is what the Yank does with the killer.

Since the JFK assassination to today’s shooting in Florida, has there ever been a conservative mass shooter?
Most all, if not all, have been anti-American democrats.
Very good point.
It’s a point I’ve asserted many times myself.
All of the mass shooters have been commies, Democrats or atheists – or all three.
Oh, and I forgot to mention Muzzies – the new modern-day threat to democracy and civilization.
(Not that there’s a Hell of a lot of difference between them.)

Has anyone disclosed yet how this adult-aged known menace found his way inside the school with an AR? If it’s like our HS, that would be lazy azzzz school employees who buzz everyone in rather than expend the energy to ask a question…
He probably just walked in.
It is Florida after all.

Heavy.com is reporting that one of his instagram accounts his profile picture he was wearing a MAGA hat. All the pictures they have there he is wearing Army knit caps or baseball caps. It’d be nice to know why there seems to be two narratives about this guy and why they seem to be polar opposites.
1st off he’s 19. Wasn’t in the military. (as much as I hate to say this, not everyone with an interest in the military is pro-trump or even a patriot). Maybe he thinks wearing military gear is cool. He’s also seen wearing antifa shirts. I’ve seen a pic with a MAGA hat, but it is being reported as being used to infiltrate and disrupt a Trump supporter gathering. Bottom line? Registered democrat, antifa and at the very least, an interest in islam.

It will come out in time this guys connections to Antifa and probably John Brown Gun Club/Redneck Revolt (their stalker, hate group, leftie militia) or one of the offshoots thereof. In my area, these folks are responsible for several incidents of threats, stalking, harassment, and attacks; they just not (to my knowledge) killed anyone yet here. Whatever intents they may (or may not) have had when they were founded, they have morphed into a lower intensity vigilante group, with a terrorist streak. This kind of incident is what comes out of the extreme end of that ideology.
I just reviewed Redneck Revolt’s website. They are a self-proclaimed revolutionary, far left, racist, anti-capitalist group. They have all the earmarks of a Communist inspired/leaning disruptive organization whose purpose is to breed hate and discord among and between the general population.
If you dig deep enough and far enough, you’ll probably find money with George Soros’ fingerprints on it.
His filthy, NWO-globalist, anti-American lucre is everywhere you find violence.

For willfully running a commercial enterprise that knowoingly permits is customers to traffic in incendiary language and content that puts American citizens at risk, Mark Zuckerberg and Sheryl Sandburg should be frog-marched off to a federal penitentiary in prison orange.
Say what you will about the tobacco and asbestos companies endangering the lives of Americans, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Snapchat and other seductively-named “social media” platforms are far worse – the scourge of civil society. Humanity would be better off without them.
Hoping that some socially-minded law firm takes up the challenge to put these poisonous companies out of business, and their chief officers and top executives behind bars.

I was listening to Sean The-Moron Hannity when a caller stated to arm the children, teach them to shoot and train them and I thought, yes. Since, you know, cops take at least 10 minutes unless you are getting robbed in a donut shoppe.
I thought Sean The-Moron Hannity was going to agree. INSTEAD he said kids are too young, immature, won’t care and learn and gave examples of his own sons (like father like son, eh?) can’t learn to handle a weapon, due to “eating” issues.
Well, Sean The-Moron, guess who handedly did the shooting so nicely and KILLED SEVENTEEN PEOPLE??? Yes, the moron adolescent who you said cannot handle weapon, too immature and blah, blah, blah….. and only adults who are Audy Murphy, Rambone, Clint Eastwood trained and all that rot would be able to STOP IT.
Telling me you are NOT a conservative at heart but a LOVER of big government and their police farce and being at their mercy, unless you are at a donut shop.. SHAME on you saying kids can’t handle a weapon.
Again, a KID killed seventeen people showing they are very much capable of handling one you ckfing idiot!! So, if one kid can shoot OFFENSIVELY, then another kid can SHOOT DEFENSIVELY!!!

The fact that he did a GOOGLE SEARCH of “what does Allahu Akbar mean?” would seem to me to indicate he was NOT a Muslim or even anyone the slightest bit familiar with the tenets of Islam or of the habits of Islamic terrorists. Nor was he an Antifa leftist — Ms. Geller’s article, above, doesn’t actually provide proof of anything of the kind. To the contrary, reports I have seen indicate he was linked to a Florida white-supremacist group that wanted to create a white ethnic mini-state in Florida. If he was looking into anything ISIS-related, it was probably just to find out how “the other guys” go about creating a terrorist ethnic mini-state. Duh.
I posted on TODAY’s followup article of Ms. Geller’s, that I stand corrected on this point. But it is hardly being “full of it” to point out that there was at least some indication in that direction among the facts known to date. I’m not wedded to that conclusion.
But if that’s the way you look at it, isn’t it also being “full of it” to conclude that this guy was a Muslim jihadist, based only on his doing a Google search for “what does Allahu Akbar mean?” As I pointed out originally, that seems to make it LESS likely that he knows even the first thing about Islam.
I wouldn’t say I “hate” Trump… and he’s done some good things, which I agree with, like the Jerusalem move, and his making even the slightest demands on the Palestinian side, which literally no previous president had done. Those are places where his “don’t bore me with the details, I know what I want” approach actually works. But any objective view would reveal he is an outsider, with no idea of how to be a normal President, and his whole instinct is to just smash the existing system. Which is, I understand, why his supporters LIKE him so much. And why I see him as a danger to the survival of the republic. But I thought we were here on this site to discuss our mutual concern over Islamic jihadism, not our undying love of Trump. When did this turn into nothing more than a pro-Trump echo chamber?
you do seem more open minded than most, excuse the prejudgement. However, I must suggest you’ve been misled greatly if you think clinton or obama held any respect at all for our “republic”… which they actively campaigned to alter into a pure democracy.
Hilary was not the best candidate for the job, I admit, but she was the one the liberals wound up with. I surely hope you don’t think Trump was the best potential president among the baker’s dozen GOP primary candidates. But it was “her turn,” they said.
As for the “republic” vs “democracy” idea, I’m afraid you’ve been misled. A “republic” just means it’s not a monarchy. A republic can be a broad-based democracy, a narrower democracy (where only certain classes of citizens can vote), an oligarchy (where only a tiny handful of citizens control things), or an autocracy (effectively one-man rule, but, not a hereditary monarchy). And a monarchy can also be a democracy — such as the UK.
Hilary wanted to increase diversity in the ranks of government officials. To me that’s a good thing. I am not aware of any plan to change the formal rules about who is entitled to vote or to run for office — please cite, if you know of any. She just wanted to fairly enforce the rules we already have.
Nope — I don’t “like” or “dislike” whoever he may be affiiliated with, if anybody. My reason for pointing out the report that was then going around (and which, yes, has since been debunked) is to raise into question the equally evidence-free conclusion that this guy was a Muslim jihadist of any kind. Because even his Google search for “what does Allahu Akbar mean” would indicate he doesn’t know even the first thing about Islam.
What’s interesting about the faux “Progressive” left, they also do not have a clue about Muslim jihadists. They believe if a practicing Muslim, devout and even degreed in Islam, commits terrorist acts (screaming Allahu Akbar), by definition they are NO LONGER MUSLIM. I have yet to have a Progressive Liberal explain now a “moderate Muslim” converts to a non-Muslim the moment they slaughter innocent folks.
I haven’t ever heard a leftist actually say what you report them as believing, so I have my doubts. I am a liberal myself, but fully recognize that jihadists believe they are performing a Muslim religious obligation when they slaughter unbelievers. What some leftists try to argue is that the terrorists are not jihadists — that is, that they are not motivated by religious reasons, but rather by poverty, or oppression, or whatever. That’s what they are saying when they say the terrorists are not acting for Islam. They are not denying that these people identify themselves as belonging to the Muslim religion.
I disagree with them over the jihadists’ motivation — they ARE doing it for religious reasons — but I understand what the leftists are saying. It’s not what you ascribe.
9/11 Jihadists were extraordinarily privileged financially. ISIS Caliphate leader has a PhD in Islamic Studies from one of the most prestigious Islamic Universities on the planet, yet Obama says, “ISIL is not Islamic”. So, Obama, who claims to be a Christian (LOL), knows more about the faith of Islam, than devout Muslim (Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi) PhD Islam, University of Baghdad? This is the delusion of the left. https://youtu.be/xJsEArCY8-M

These nutcases are in every school. We had same kinda guy, a loner, gun nut, was kicked out of school, he came back and threatened students at the school, he kept sneaking in and pulling the fire alarms as pranks, he smashed all the urinals in the boys locker room with shot-put balls.
He was jealous of a ” Jock” football player who was going out with his ex girlfriend. He showed up to her house and shot everyone having thanksgiving dinner including her boyfriend and his parents.
he then shot himself. Luckily for everyone there he used a 22 short auto which is not the most effective round. and miraculously of the 8 persons shot including 2 children he was the only fatality,
He never talked about politics or religion just drunk from whiskey and abusive and threatening most of the time. When it happened we said the same things they are saying in Florida, he was the most likely person to do this it was almost predicted.

The mainstream media I’ve seen so far, have barely IDed his name.
HINT: he’s not European-American. (I’m sure the MSM are pissed he isn’t, because narrative)
No mention of his likes, or what he follows on social media – whoops, it’s LEFTIST, Anti-American groups, can’t use that deranged picture of him in his yearbook – gotta whitewash them!
CAIR, Pro-QUEER, Pro-Palestinian, Pro-BLM groups will never issue condemnations of this mass killing.

its not the gun its not the kid shooting , no! its the church that will not pary and put spiritual protection on all the kids in a county or state!
just like the left to spread disinformation so that focus is taken off of the real issue. It would not surprise me to find that out that the shooting was a false flag distraction orchestrated by the left so that focus is taken off of the dossier and all the indictments coming. Also as a potential gun grab of AR platform guns. These power hungry fucks are willing to kill every last one of us in order to retain their power.
True he had troubles, many people do, but that in no way rationalizes murder, which multiplies trouble for others. Only muslims enjoy watching others suffer, especially when they can wave the qur’an at them to make it worse.
I totally agree with you, but my point is that when there are signs of troubled youth, they need intervention with compassion, not indifference, which MIGHT prevent anger to the point of murder.
It is significant that so many young boys/men are so angry in America and instead of society screaming ‘gun control’, America needs to look inward .
I have not heard anyone who shouts ‘gun control’ lambaste Hollywood, which is the leading promoter of violence, by gun or otherwise.
What is needed is society to take an interest in what is going on around it, when something is right, say so, don’t be shy. When something is wrong, like a person exhibiting signs of mental issues, do not ignore it, the problem is community wide, as is the solution.

Clever of this blog to leave out the caption on his Allahu Akbar google search post… He searched and posted it to mock them (I saw it earlier in the day). Any genuine Muslim let alone radical Islamist or sympathizer would know what that means. Let’s be real

All these mass shooters are leftist morons that are either lone wolves for Islam or deep state MK Ultra slaves. What is the FBI for they sure have not stopped any terror but they can watch everything we do?
Build the fence. Around our schools. Gated entrance one in and one out. Armed guards patrolling perimeter. If we can protect the white house this way, it should be just as good for our schools. Check every single bag, every single day. No one gets within 500 feet of the school without a bag check.
