SWAT Team Kills Workplace Violence Hostage Taker
"A SWAT team shot and killed an armed suspect who took hostages at a Walmart in Amarillo, Texas Tuesday afternoon, investigators confirmed, saying all the hostages are now safe.
Police identified the gunman late Tuesday as 54-year-old Mohammad Moghaddam.
We do consider this a work-place violence situation at this point," the sheriff's office said."
Likely this is an example of a radical assault-style-rifle, not tied to any other rifles, a lone wolf rifle if you will, hijacking the peaceful idea of not having your constitutional rights infringed. Poor Mr. Moghaddam was at work, minding his own business (the article does not mention Moghaddam's religion, but it is Texas, so it could be Catholic, Pentecostal, Lutheran, etc., you never really know with gun owners), when the gun assaulted his sensibilities. This is clearly an example of workplace assault-rifle violence, since Walmart is a place where people work. But barely, Walmart does not provide full medical insurance to every single employee, and starts part-time employees at the minimum wage, and has only two types of bathrooms. One might ask - why hasn't more assault-rifle violence taken place at "workplaces" like this one.

Take that message to Barack and Hillary.
Why would somebody named MOHAMMED move to Amarillo, Texas? He should have stayed, lived and worked in a more "progressive" and inclusive area where the locals wouldn't think him a Mooselim. Well the SWAT Team heard his desperate cry for help and sent him on to his 72 virgins.
You know that the officer who dropped him won't be able to buy a drink in Amarillo for the rest of his life. I'd like to be a fly on the wall when the call went out.
"Hey, Bubba, some Mooselim took hostages down at the Walmart, you think he'll surrender?"
Bubba, spitting on the tip of the cartridge that he's seating in his M-4, "I doubt it."
This is exactly the kind of thing that happens when you let poor, defenseless guns grow up to become radical assault rifles. I'm certain that poor, Mr. Moghaddam was just an innocent bystander when the radical assault rifle jumped him and forced him to take hostages. He's not likely to receive his heavenly virgins after so cowardly an act as getting led to his death by a radical assault rifle.
