GARLAND, Texas (AP) — Two gunmen were killed Sunday after opening fire on a security officer outside a provocative contest for cartoon depictions of Prophet Muhammad in Texas

There are rumors that ISIS took credit for the attack on social media sites.

Here's the winning drawing at the contest where the winner took a $10,000 prize.

I like this drawing better that was found on the ground outside the contest.

For some weird reason the above url doesn't want to play the game, although it is correct. Copy and paste and hopefully you will get to the pics.

Also, there are actually two chalk outlines; looks much better.

The only way to stop terrorism is to kill the terrorists. All the best...

Gil,
If only that were true.
Killing terrorists just breeds more to take their place. Dying in the act provides them with their greatest reward. It sets an example that others can do the same thing.

The only way to end terrorism is to block them from the ultimate goal. To do that we need to be worse than they are. We need to send them back home with no legs, no arms no genitals, no eyes, ears, tongues, or voice box. Still alive and healthy wrapped in pig skin.

That way they can't pray, only their mothers can take care of them (she can refuse), they can't breed, and they are "unclean" so even their slaves are better off. They are simply a burden to their family. When that begins then it will take away the incentive to risk the holy war.

I am not advocating any such horrible acts but it is the only way to stop them.

What you have said is 100% correct Paul...but that would make us no better than them mate. I do however like the way you think.

Yep, armless and legless wrapped in pig skin. Wadda call that "pig in a blanket". Yes, killing them will not solve the problem, but there seems to be a endless supply so there shouldn't be any shortage of game. Sorry, just being nasty.

Somewhere a "progressive" will be demanding the officers involved be prosecuted for hunting over a baited field.....

That right there is funny! It would be funnier if it weren't so close to the truth.

While I was winning the 22 silhouette match this evening we decided that we needed to invite the liberal representative from our respective states to be target holders for a "free range" day at the range. We really liked the idea of moving and reactive targets with the benefit of getting some of the liberals out of politics. Wink

You mean like this Paul...

It's rather strange that ISIS is claiming responsibility for this attack. While they may have inspired it, I doubt they had control over it. Given the attack was such a failure I would think they would distance themselves from it. The only positive thing I can see about claiming responsibility is that they can show they can strike anywhere, no matter how feeble that attack may be.
