MO THE MOWER
“These days, whenever something goofy turns up on the news, chances are it involves a fellow called Mohammed.” So wrote Mark Steyn last year, and the trend continues:
The driver of an SUV that plowed into a group of pedestrians at UNC-Chapel Hill on Friday told police it was retribution for the treatment of Muslims around the world, according to ABC News ...
Chapel Hill police say they arrested the suspect, Mohammed Reva Taheriazar, 23, of Chapel Hill, shortly after the incident. Several witnesses were able to give police the rented Jeep Cherokee’s license plate number.
Police said they would charge Taheriazar, a psychology major who graduated from UNC last semester, with several counts of assault with a deadly weapon with intent to kill ...
Taheriazar apparently told police he tried to rent the biggest SUV he could find to use in the attack.
The biggest he could find was a teensy Jeep Cherokee? No wonder Mohammed (rental fees be upon him) failed to kill anybody. For serious retribution work, you need something like this.
