Yeah Right

Rapist drug dealer murderer merely had a grudge against society, so he attacked crowds of Christmas shoppers. With military explosives and machine guns. Nothing to see here, move along.

The gunman, named as Nordine Amrani, 33, began his attack near a bus stop at Place Saint Lambert, a central shopping area and the site of the city’s annual Christmas market and its main courthouse.

He opened fire and threw explosives on a city centre square which was hosting a Christmas market. He ended by shooting himself in the head with a handgun, witnesses said.

“The act which happened here in Liege is horrible, there are no words to describe the tragedy. We think of the innocent victims, innocent victims, of their families and friends. We also think of all the people who were present at the scene, and more generally of the people of Liege. All the country is sharing in the pain of the families affected,” The Prime Minister said.

“According to the information we have this is an isolated act, not a terrorist act, or an attack. The shock that the population feels is understandable and we share it,” he said.

They stressed that Amrani had no known links to terrorism or any history of mental illness or violent crime, but it did emerge that he was released on parole last year from a 58-month sentence for possessing a cache of weapons and 2,800 cannabis plants.

Belgian gunman Nordine Amrani launched his attack on Christmas shopping crowds in Leige’s busy Place Saint Lambert because he knew that he was going to be sent back to prison and had a “grudge against society”, his lawyers said today.

It emerged early this morning that Amrani, 33, killed a 45-year old woman before carrying out his grenade and assault rifle attack that killed three people in Liege, including a 17-month old baby boy.

The Belgian, of Moroccan origin, was on parole and had been summoned to police, where he feared being arrested and being returned to prison because his car number plate had been seen at the scene of an “immoral act”.

With previous convictions and jail terms for possession of arms, he would have known that the police would have raided his properties where he had a new stash of heavy weapons, including grenades and assault rifles.

The police source said Amrani’s rucksack was ‘full of grenades’, with many remaining unused after he pulled the pins out of just three.

The source said Amrani, who came from a North African immigrant background, also had convictions for drug dealing, handling stolen goods and sex abuse.

‘Amrani was well-known to us, but was never linked to any terrorist group,’ said the source.

And don’t you just adore this leading line from the BBC -

Nordine Amrani was known to Belgian police as a gun enthusiast long before the day he killed at least four people and himself, wounding more than 120.

He had previously been convicted for drug dealing and illegal arms possession, as well as for holding stolen goods and other crimes, said Daniele Reynders, the public prosecutor for Liege.

All told, he had racked up around 20 brushes with Belgian law enforcement, an official source told AFP.

Yeah, let’s all thank God that this wasn’t any kind of indication that he had mental problems or anything. All us sane folks have a bomb lab in the garage, don’t we?

Lot’s of papers and blogs are running his picture now that it’s been released. Here’s the only picture of him that he deserves:

Burn in Hell, asshole.

PS - Guess those super effective gun control laws don’t work in wonderful Europe either. Not only did this scumbag get his hands on firearms, he got hold of fully automatic ones, and grenades. Grenades are classified as WMDs in the USA, therefore this murder spree is an act of terrorism. Call it Sudden Jihad Syndrome, call it just another criminal loser who just happens to be of pizzlamic descent who just happens to hate the world who just happens to go on a killing spree. During the major Christian holiday season. Pure coincidence. He was just a nihilist trying to commit suicide, who was the worstest shot evah. Yeah, that’s it. And then give props to the Belgie’s criminal justice system ... more than 20 convictions, drugs, guns, BOMBS, rapes, yet here he was, out on the street. Way to go!

Not that very many people ever read this far down, but this blog was the creation of Allan Kelly and his friend Vilmar. Vilmar moved on to his own blog some time ago, and Allan ran this place alone until his sudden and unexpected death partway through 2006. We all miss him. A lot. Even though he is gone this site will always still be more than a little bit his. We who are left to carry on the BMEWS tradition owe him a great debt of gratitude, and we hope to be able to pay that back by following his last advice to us all:

1. Keep a firm grasp of Right and Wrong
2. Stay involved with government on every level and don't let those bastards get away with a thing
3. Use every legal means to defend yourself in the event of real internal trouble, and, most importantly:
4. Keep talking to each other, whether here or elsewhere

It's been a long strange trip without you Skipper, but thanks for pointing us in the right direction and giving us a swift kick in the behind to get us going. Keep lookin' down on us, will ya? Thanks.
