Yes, the same coworker that said he was strange and suspicious because he listened to Arabic radio stations.

And..police investigated him.
They found nothing.

I'm not saying that this was not an act of terror....but there are no facts yet to jump on the bandwagon.

And..police investigated him.
They found nothing.

I don't recall reading that - I read there was insufficient evidence.
Might consider this too:

When Sharif started talking to him about his hatred of Shia Muslims and support for well-known leaders of the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria, the co-worker decided he needed to do something, he said.

Yes, the same coworker that said he was strange and suspicious because he listened to Arabic radio stations.

Where do you get this stuff? It was stated:

The co-worker said Sharif would play broadcasts in Arabic while they worked at the construction site.

what someone listens to means nothing

Where do you get this stuff?

He worked with a "very strange" Sharif at a construction site in the summer of 2015, he said.
The co-worker said Sharif would play broadcasts in Arabic while they worked at the construction site.

Yes, the same coworker that said he was strange and suspicious because he listened to Arabic radio stations.

The coworker didn't say that - obviously.

OFF TOPIC.

[the truth]

and you know this because you were there my god anything to minimize terrorism , you people take the cake

[Ka-El]

my god anything to minimize terrorism ,

Good grief. Your proclivity to not understand what you read never ceases to astound me. There is a great deal of information out there as to what terrorism is and what it isn't, none of it found in any of your irrelevant posts. Pointless.

No one is, has or ever will, minimize terrorism.

But....one simply can not call every lunatic who acts on their own accord, a terrorist.

Yes, I know. He owns a flag.
A flag does not make one a terrorist.

A proven affiliation with a terrorist organization, a proven political plot .....proof that this was not just a crazy wannabe.

[Fancy]

Making up stuff doesn't serve any purpose either.

[Farmmaa]

The coworker didn't say that - obviously.

Right - he stated that he was very strange. And that he listened to Arabic broadcasts at work.

Sooo completely different than what I posted....and absolute proof that he is a card carrying member of ISIS for sure.

[Fancy]

Embellishing what the facts are negates any point you try to make.

Many say it’s a sign of abusing democracy. A Calgary woman running for the public position of school board trustee in wards 12 and 14 is getting a lot of backlash following a controversial social media post.

In the post, Draper places blame on the LGBTQ community for this past weekend’s attack in Edmonton that injured five people.
