Florida man kills roommates for disrespecting his Muslim faith

A Florida man accused of murdering his roommates claims to have shared their neo-Nazi ideology with the two men until he converted to Islam and shot them because they disrespected his faith.

According to investigators, Devon Arthurs, 18, killed Jeremy Himmelman, 22, and Andrew Oneschuk, 18, because he was angry about anti-Muslim sentiment in the world and he “wanted to bring attention to his cause.”

The murders occurred at the Hamptons at Tampa Palms apartment complex followed by a hostage situation that took place at the nearby Green Planet Smoke Shop.

Upon entering the smoke shop about 5:30 pm, Arthurs brandished a semiautomatic pistol.

I read about this last night. I first saw his photo and thought it was the new Spider-man!
I just don't understand why an 18 year old is filled with that much anger. I would really like to know his upbringing, but my past is no bowl of cherries.
I usually try and capture and release house bugs and spiders before killing them, I could not imagine inflicting harm or death on another human, unless it was them or me.
I use to have a step father, first of 5, who would beat the hell out of me with a leather belt or ping pong pattle, for something like not using a coaster on the glass top coffee table. Also, me relatives are the most racist, people I have ever met, next to the BLM, and I still have nothing but love for my fellow man. Even the idiot liberals, there's still hope for most of them.
He obviously is impressionable in addition to what ever screw is loose. But he will not likely get to visit another Florida alligator farm again.

The God of the Bible is not only Faithful and Honest, but he is also reliable and true. Because he is a God of Light, no ‘Darkness’ can flow from him because it would be incompatible with his identity.  However, the God of the Quran does NOT share this Quality (Honest, Truthful). In fact, In the Qur’an the scriptures call their God ‘Allah' the Greatest Deceiver out of ALL of the Deceivers. So unlike the Christian God, The God of Islam is not truthful and honest. Instead he is deceptive and crafty (Qur’an 3:54) Now it doesn’t take a genius to realize that if “Deception” is known as one of someone’s best qualities — that person (or entity) is one in which you can “trust” to your own peril.

The Bible (like all other relogious texts) is a work of F-I-C-T-I-O-N. While I do agree with you that Islam is a culture of hate that needs to be eradicated, ALL Religions create problems for humanity.

Im sure you believe I will. Funny thing. In realm of science, the demand for proof is revered and faith is condemned. It religion faith is revered and the demand for proof condemned. In your typical religious fervor you have once again made a leap. I never said I didn't believe in a creator. I said religions are a problem and works of fiction. Why is it your savior is any more correct than Apollo, or Allah, or any other? The issue isn't the creator. The issue is man's interpretation of it. Islam is not the first religion to kill in the name of their God. Ever hear of the crusades?

Fiction?

Mentioning historical figures, cities, concurring events confirmed by OTHER official records, and the most telling?
12 men walked thousands of miles to tell the story of a man who they SAW raise the dead, SAW Him restore sight, cure disease, healed lameness, etc. Things that so amazed them they HAD to tell others. So they walked and told the same story. Not for profit or fame or glory, either. NONE of them achieved riches and fame And they were tortured and killed for it and those deaths are not biblical "fiction" --- they are in official records of the governments at the time.
You MIGHT make up a story about Jesus, but would you stick with a made up story when they said we will feed you to lions or crucify you?
Burn you at the stake? YOU wouldn't but they did. Why??? Because they knew the TRUTH, which you refuse to see.
You have what is known as "willful ignorance".
How about your "science" explain how some organic chemicals arranged themselves (something we've been trying to duplicate in labs for 70 years and have NEVER been able to coax ONE LIVING THING out of any chemical combination). And THEN, somehow, found a way to create a DNA molecule to REPLICATE themselves. You can't do it and neither can a single scientist on the planet.
Then, explain how wings "evolved".
Stick with science. Hope it works out for you, but I doubt it.

11:59am...ignorance must be bliss. I was a Marine in Gulf 1. Don't lecture me on something you obviously know nothing about. I've been there and I still believe all religions are hypocrisy and bad for humanity. Now sit down and shut up.

And do not believe that "radical" crap. The news and democrats want you to believe that bullshi-. ALL muslims read the same book. The book tells ALL muslims to kill the nonbelievers. There is no such thing as some muslims thinking it means one thing and the rest of the muslims thinking it means something else. They are not left to interpret what the quran means on their own. They are TAUGHT what the quran means. How many muslims do you see standing up and speaking out AGAINST these islamic attacks? I have seen none. They are just waiting their turn to attack. They go after your children in school. Control the children and control the future of America.

Considering all three were neo nazis, none were good people. The one guy just became even nuttier and adopted radical Muslim beliefs. They were all filled with hatred.
