Dark Knight killer James Holmes 'is now a Muslim who prays five times a day

[EC]

It's the Daily Fail, so the usual "This might be complete Bullshit" warning is in effect.

James Holmes, the gunman behind the Dark Knight massacre in Colorado last July, has reportedly turned Muslim and prays five times a day.

The killer showed off a lengthy, thick beard during a court appearance earlier this month, and a prison source has claimed it is a symbol of his new-found faith.

The source said Holmes has turned to Islam as a way of justifying his horrific murder spree in an Aurora, Colorado cinema on July 20 which left 12 people dead and 58 people wounded.

'He has brainwashed himself into believing he was on his own personal jihad and that his victims were infidels,' a prison source told the National Enquirer.

He now prays five times a day, sticks to a strict Muslim diet and spends hours each day studying the Qur'an, the source said. But his new routine has upset Muslim inmates.

'None of them condone forms of terrorism or extremism,' the source added. 'And they don't want their religion to be connected to that awful shooting.'

Holmes sported a thick, bushy beard and unkempt dark brown hair during his appearance earlier this month - a stark difference to his bright orange hair at the time of the massacre.

Islam would be the natural "faith" for a psychopath serial murderer, to turn to for idealogical support for his horrific sinful life and behavior.

[mountaineer]

Yeah, that's a real shocker.

Interesting.

After Roof killed 9 in Charleston the "logical" reaction was to ban the Confederate flag.

Holmes killed 12 and wounded 58 and has now converted to Islam. So, in response, what should now be banned relative to that religion?

Hair dye, obviously.

My cynicism makes me think his Muslim religion was in place PRIOR to the massacre and the media and FBI buried it.

Tell me ONE thing the FBI and DHS has said to be the truth since the POS took office.

Remember that he was an avid Obama supporter and worked on his campaign, so it's not unlikely that he was already a Muslim.

Yeah, I suspect this is one of two things:

1. This is typical BM-- I mean, DM tripe.

2. This is yet another attempt at publicity from this guy.

He's not a Muslim. Just a psychopath.

[DCPatriot]

The US prison system is a hotbed of Islamic incubation. 

So it didn't surprise me when I read about Holmes discovering Allah.

OTOH, some think that he did this in order to possibly gain sympathy...a 'reason' for his horrific massacre.  A justification or sorts.

[PzLdr]

Fine. Force feed him a ham and bacon sandwich, drown him pigs' blood, and don't allow his burial for a week.

Just another Muslim murderer nutcase wacko. It is another Islam inspired murder spree. (which they so love)

The Liberal argument is: But, we must always support the view of other ethnicities, even if they disagree with us. As long as they are not Christians.
