Typical Charles Johnson

A murder on the other side of the world gets the usual Charles Johnson treatment: accusations that it's an honor killing and Islam is to blame for it all even before the dust has settled and the facts are known. Meanwhile, an incident closer to home gets...not a whisper of a mention in LGFistan:

Fatal shooting at US Amish school

Scene of shootings
A gunman has shot dead three girls and injured seven others before killing himself in an attack on an Amish school in the US state of Pennsylvania.

The gunman entered the class and ordered all the boys and some adults to leave. He then tied up the girls and began shooting them in the head.

Police named the killer as 32-year-old truck driver Charles Carl Roberts IV. He is not believed to be Amish himself.

The attack is the third shooting at a US school in the past week.

In the latest shooting, the gunman lined up the girls in front of the blackboard, tying their feet using wire or plastic cuffs.

"It appears that when he began shooting these victims, the victims were shot execution style in the head," said Pennsylvania police commissioner Col Jeffrey Miller.


To Charles Johnson the logic is brutally simple: no Muslims = not noteworthy.
