Man In US Killed In Suspected 'anti-muslim Hate Crime' by vedaxcool(m): 11:32am On Aug 17, 2016 |
Arab communities in the United States are in shock after a Lebanese-American man was shot and killed by a neighbour who had allegedly used violence and racial slurs against the family for years. Khalid Jabara, 37, was shot and killed on his front porch in Tulsa, Oklahoma, on Friday. The family's neighbour, 61-year-old Stanley Vernon Majors, was arrested and he is expected to be charged with first-degree murder later this week, Tulsa police said in a press release. "My family lived in fear of this man and his hatred for years," read a family statement shared online by Jabara's sister, Victoria Jabara Williams, on Monday. Majors was awaiting trial for aggravated assault after allegedly hitting Jabara's mother, Haifa, with his car last September, which caused her numerous injuries. He was released on bond in May. "Only 30 minutes prior to my brother's shooting, Khalid called the police stating this man had a gun and that he was scared for what might happen. The police came and told him there was nothing to be done," the family’s statement said. The family said Majors repeatedly used anti-Arab slurs against them, including calling them "dirty Arabs", "filthy Lebanese", "Aye-rabs", and "Mooslems". A spokesperson for the Tulsa police department told Al Jazeera it was too early in the investigation to say whether Majors will be charged with a hate crime. Police confirmed in a statement that officers had responded to a call from Jabara the evening he was killed. "Officers arrived at the location and were unable to locate any criminal activity. Officers then left the scene," the police said. Tulsa police also confirmed that Jabara's mother had a protective order out against Majors, which ordered him to stay away from her and her home, and that he had "a criminal history" with his neighbours. "Today, in our pain, we are also keenly aware that this is not just another murder to be added to crime statistics. Our brother's death could have been prevented. This man was a known danger," the family’s statement read. http://www.aljazeera.com/news/2016/08/man-killed-suspected-anti-muslim-hate-crime-160816191517636.html |

I really think that he who killed must be arrested and properly prosecuted bit that nothwithstanding, I am just wondering what will happen if any muslim kills a christian (whether Arab or not) in say, Pakistan, Iran, Saudi Arabia etc, not for any reason but for just being a christian? |

sinkhole: It is silly question designed to down play the death of man who was murdered by hateful individuals like yourself. What does a Saudi response have to do with a murder in America by an American? Bigot, only Hate blows in your brain. In Saudi several Christians work and live there and no one incite hate against them, it even have one of the lowest murder rates in the world compared to most Christian dominated country, but this is really not about religion but about hate pushing people to act in a despicable manner. Your failed upbringing couldn't help but throw religion into the mix. Shame! 4 Likes |

This is really wrong and all hate crimes should be condemned in the strongest possible terms. But this is what you get when muslim terrorists think they have monopoly of violence. More and more people are getting to hate islam and everything it stands for and things like this are bound to happen if the muslim world continues to play lip service with dealing with islamic terrorism. Fact is that muslims find it difficult to condemn islamic terrorism since it's an integral part of the sunnah of their 'prophet' thus their hypocrisy on the subject matter. |

vedaxcool: I already condemned the killing of man and I also condemned all hate crimes especially the ones inspired by islam. It should also not be lost on us that things like this are bound to happen as long as islam is allowed to perpetuate it's hatred for non muslims. Islam needs to be reformed and the quoran should burnt and completely done away with. |
