Man charged with murder for charging teen with SUV outside Kansas City mosque

A 34-year-old Kansas City man faced first-degree murder charges Friday in the hit-and-run killing of a 15-year-old boy, struck down after he had just finished Thursday evening prayers at a mosque near downtown.

Ahmed H. Aden faced additional counts of armed criminal action, leaving the scene of an accident and unlawful use of a weapon in the death of Abdisamad Sheikh-Hussein, a sophomore at Staley High School.

While the boy was a Muslim of Somali descent, Aden was described by sources as a Somali Christian.

I wonder how much of this was religious and how much was inspired by tribal differences.

You were hoping it was a white guy, weren't you?

If they were strangers to each other (not interpersonal feud) I would go with tribal. Somalians are born and bred with boiling blood.
 
It's difficult to speculate what his motivation was - whether tribal, religious or "other". I'm wondering what type of Christianity they are teaching in Somalia.

Sounds like the type of people that the Obama administration issues immigration visas to.

America is to white and too Christian per the Obama administration. But not all Somalians are Muslims, just most of them.

I think Clinton was the one who brought tens of thousands of Somalians into the US via state department amnesty programs.

Clinton should have left the Somalians in Somali and took Osama bin Laden into custody instead when the Sudan offered him to Clinton. But no way Jose, Susan Rice told Clinton to ignore Bin Laden, lets go for the Somalians instead.

BTW: That's the same Susan Rice who's Obama's national security adviser today.

Not unusual for american politicians to think that "if we give them bread and circuses, they will stop fighting and hold hands like in the coke commercials". Some people just have such a bloodlust for other groups that there is no mitigating it, especially in Africa. Victims will turn into attackers if given half a chance.
 
After reading the article, I learned that the guy is a violently anti-Muslim Christian, who has been reported to the police several times for making threats against Muslims and even threatening mass killings in the mosque.

I'm frankly shocked that with all that warning, the guy was still roaming the streets, looking for a Muslim to kill. Somebody dropped the ball, big time.

Does it really shock you that somebody can make threats against Muslims without consequence?

What would he be arrested for?

Was there enough evidence to charge him with a crime?

Yes, because as you know, the world is clearly out for white guys that belong to the tea party. They constantly have to look over their shoulders.

Other people have advocated mass murder and incited rebellion and haven't been charged, nor committed.

The NCL's certainly are out for anyone that doesn't fit the PC mold.

How can Farrahan make such threats and not be arrested? Or, the panthers, when they advocated mass murder?

Not the world, just the IRS. :lol:

Be honest here, if the driver of the SUV had been some white dude with TEA party connections, you don't think there'd be those on the left who'd try to make political hay out of it?
