It’s an Obama world…
Mohamed Ibrahim is out of jail after posting $100 bond. Mohamed, 35, threatened businesses on Poplar Avenue, Summer Avenue, Mendenhall, Perkins and Danny Thomas Boulevard. The suspect tried to kick out the windows of a patrol car during the arrest and police said they had to use pepper spray to subdue him.
Memphis offiicials released Mohamed Ibrahim from jail after he threatened to blow up several local stores. He was carrying a knife and driving a PT Cruiser when he was arrested.
MyEyeWitness News reported:
Tonight, Mohamed Ibrahim is out after posting $100 bond. Earlier in the day, he was arrested after police say he walked into several Memphis businesses and threatened to blow them up.
Court records show Ibrahim was also telling people he was Muslim, and wanted to start a jihad, or holy war, in Memphis.
Police say when they arrested him, he had a butcher knife hidden in one of his jacket sleeves.
There’s more… The Commercial Appeal reported:
The FBI found three Islamic cassette tapes and miscellaneous papers in the suspect’s car, which were removed for additional study, according to the affidavit. Police charged Ibrahim with commission of an act of terrorism, filing false reports and disorderly conduct. He posted $100 bond and was released, pending his court date on Monday.
The local store owners must be feeling much better now that Mohamed is back on the street.
UPDATE: Thanks to Debbie B. for this information. According to the Shelby County website, Ibrahim’s bail was set at $50,000 and his court date is January 11, 2010. The $100 bail was for a Class C misdemeanor charge on December 23. Blueguitarbob added that $50,000 is the maximum bail amount under the TN code for those charged with non-homicide felonies.

$100? I knew people in college who got busted joy riding in a golf cart, and their bail was $500. No threat. And this guy gets $100?
2hotel9 commented:
Next time he strolls into a business and threatens to blow it up they should simply shoot him. Clear case of self defense. He claims to be a Jihadi and wishes to die for his god, accommodate him.
NeoKong commented:
They should keep him in jail just for driving a PT Cruiser.
Kenny Solomon commented:
After being pepper-sprayed, many people need therapy.
Let’s “hope” Mr. Ibrahim is one of those in the category.
Therapy prescribed for Mr. Ibrahim is of the .50 caliber variety.
“Change.”
I betcha when the judge is confronted, he’ll be a stickler for political correctness and say that he himself was bound by whatever obscure law was found to accelerate appeasement of the peace-lovers.

Memphis is the next Detroit. I live in a suburb across the state line, and that town is dying from the inside out. The crime is unbelievable and they do nothing about it.

Diversity IS NOT our strength.
When are you going to get it?
Aitch748 commented:
There seem to be lots of places in this country where you’ll be better served by the “shoot, shovel, and shut up” rule than by relying on the government to do their freaking jobs, and if this incident is at all typical, Memphis is starting to sound like one of them. How the [bleep] do they justify letting this maniac loose on a $100 bond???
Militant Conservative commented:
Lee your correct. Only when the immigrant is assimilated into the American culture is that diversity.
What we have now are waring factions. I have been telling Ya’ll, your the only one that can protect yourself. Get your CHL and ammo cuz when seconds count, the cops are just minutes away. The rules no longer apply to the leaders, chaos will soon be the situation.
Bruce commented:
Kenny, it’s hard enough finding .45 and 9mm on the shelves these days. You think anyone’s gonna waste a precious and rare .50-caliber round on this guy? A .22 behind the ear will do the trick at less expense and mess.
Dell commented:
Uhhhh? What are the odds he’ll appear for his next hearing???
All things considered, I’d say he was a “high risk of flight” and, therefore, the judge who granted him bail will be directly responsible for his actions from this point on. We should identify that judge!
Inge commented:
Call me cynical when I observe that most jihadist lately, and the american killing sprees (such as the police officer in WA, this guy in TN, the black panther threats at polling station) are all black.?
Has Obama with racist attitdue brought out the worst in african americans?
Was this his, and Holders, and the rest of his Acorn cronies the intent all along?
Before someone calls me a racist take a look around, including the latest attempt to bring down an airplane, attempting to kill 200+ people out of pure hate?

Islam is a peaceful religion. If you say otherwise, they’ll cut off your head.

Mr. Ibrahim will be much more useful on the street COM DA REVOLUSHUN!

I have ZERO faith in our justice system. We’re TOO soft on crime and especially on these islamofascist nutjobs. FFS…
Marsh commented:
Honestly, it’s getting to the point where patriots might have to start taking justice into their own hands if our government is incapable of protecting us.
Texmom commented:
#10: I agree that this is looking intentional. It almost seems as if this administration is letting these things happen purposely. I hate to think it, but it sure looks that way.

Political correctness is the hole in the dike.
wanumba commented:
Unleashing mobs of disaffected Luos worked for Odinga in Kenya to brutalize and bully the Kenyan Kikuyus into accepting power sharing and UPEND the ELECTION results.
Obama was mumble-mouthed about it even though he campaigned for Odinga.
An inadvertently helpful Democrat found the Senate Foreign Relations approvals for Obama’s first international trip as a new US Senator to Kenya.
Didn’t see any mention in the approvals though Obama was providing US Senate prestige to a Kenyan presidential candidate.
With this background, will not be the least surprised to see urban riots in US cities as a major feature of the next two elections.
Never let a manufactured crisis go to waste.

Chris Rock better not go to Memphis until this Ibrahim guy’s locked up.
Debbie B commented:
The reports of this guy being out on bond are simply wrong. He is in jail, and his bond is set at $50,000. There was a weapons charge that was issued two days before the terrorism charge. The bond for that was set at $100. Maybe that’s why there’s confusion. The reporting in Memphis is pitiful, which is why I cancelled my subscription to the Commercial Appeal four years ago. Here are links to the court and jail records for Ibrahim. Just enter his name in the search boxes…

Peter commented:
Debbie,
After reviewing those Shelby County websites, it appears that you are correct. It’s the weapons charge that was $100. He is under $50,000 bond for an act of committing terrorism. The first website says “Releasable: N” meaning No.
Anyone find anything different after reviewing those sites?

WTH! If I didn’t know better, and I’m not even sure about that, but it seems America has a death wish of some sort….not the American people of course, but the powers that be.

We could only be so fortunate if it were only the powers that be that suffered the consequences of their own stupidity.

Not all Muslims are terrorists but all terrorists are Muslim.
blueguitarbob commented:
@Peter, yes @Debbie was correct. The $100 bail was for a class c misdemeanor charge on 12/23. Ibrahim paid that bail. He is currently in jail from a 12/25 arrest on two felonies (the most serious is a class A Commission of a Terrorist Act) and a disorderly conduct. The bail is $50,000 and has not been paid yet.
Note, however, that he cannot be held without bail. The Tennessee constitution (article 1, section 15) states that bail release cannot be denied except in capital offenses. If he pays the $50,000 then he will be released pending court appearances.
Also, the $50,000 is the maximum bail amount under the TN code for those charged with non-homicide felonies.
