A family member told police she believed that anger and Thomas’ conversion to the Muslim religion influenced his actions.
Chron.com reported:
A family dispute pushed Maron Thomas to go on a rampage marked by a fury so intense that he decapitated his 2-year-old niece with a machete after killing her and four other family members, Austin County investigators said Wednesday.
Thomas, 20, was charged Wednesday with capital murder in the shooting deaths of his mother, stepfather, sister, brother and his niece. He remains in the Austin County Jail with bail set at $1 million.
“This is one of the most horrific crimes we’ve had in Austin County,” District Attorney Travis Koehn said. “Austin County is a safe place to live, but unfortunately, we are not immune to the same kinds of crimes that occur in other locations.”
The massacre happened between midnight Saturday and 3 a.m. Sunday at the family’s home 7 miles outside the Bellville city limits, on FM 1456 between Buckhorn and Cochran.
Thomas then allegedly burglarized a car and was arrested around 3 a.m. after being caught trying to break into a house a mile and a half away while he was naked, investigators said. A neighbor held him at gunpoint until deputies arrived and arrested him on burglary charges. When deputies arrived, he had put on a pair of exercise shorts…
Thomas’ sister, Ka’Tara Price, 24, of Houston, said she believes anger and Thomas’ conversion to the Muslim religion influenced his actions. She said she is not aware of him suffering from any mental illness.

The religion of peace!
Hargoosh commented:
We really should give HIM a taste of Islamic Law, and kill him immediately. An eye for an eye, whatever is left of the family he killed would get the choice of method to take him out. Islamic Law is definitely called for here, Swift and Sure.
Winston commented:
Was he a jihadi?

Thank goodness for the common sense approach to Texas justice – give ‘em a fair trial and then execute ‘em.
He’s 20 now, so that means after the ACLU and the state are done with all his pleas they should be injecting him sometime within the next 25 years.

Such as Londonistan, Pakistan, Hamastan, and Egypt, no you are not.
But where we don’t have any practitioners of the religion of peace…life is a little better.

Thank God for responsible gun owners and the Second Amendment or God knows how many innocent people this muslime whack job would have slaughtered. That home owner is a hero.

They probably wouldn’t let the 2 year old marry him. They just don’t understand Islam.

Did this murdering muslim convert in prison?
Had It In Ohio commented:
Wow, I didn’t hear anything about his Muslim conversion on the news! Glad I am armed and have plenty of ammo, because I wouldn’t hold him at gunpoint. They would have needed the coroner.
BigAlSouth commented:
Great. Maron Thomas. Another “victim” of “Battered Muslim Syndrome.”

Let me be clear, we must not jump to conclusions. Just because a black Muslim man’s gun shot five people and a rusty machete chopped off a little girls head doesn’t mean this guy is guilty of a Man-Made-Disaster or sudden Jihad.
With a little counseling from Bill Ayers, the ACLU and CAIR I am sure we can find the root cause of the terrorist act… I mean man-made-disaster.
Did I tell you that Muslims invented everything from the pen to the printing press? They are the Religion Of Pieces… I mean Peace. I need a bigger teleprompter.
Now, my limousine is running and I have a meeting with Axelrod and ACORN over some Astroturfing. I am doing my best to look busy. Good Day.

Don’t worry TEXAS has an express lane for this kind of scum. This is why I strap on my gunbelt ever day. You do not know when you will meet with ill intent. I use seat belts, insurance,fire extingushers etc for the same reason.

” A neighbor held him at gun point”…Just think what other mayhem may have happened had that neighbor not had a gun! Never give up your guns America or you will be at the mercy of the evil ones.
lunaticcringeradio commented:
oh come now you all, the liberal progressive socialists will tell us we are just being hate filled racists against islam for wanting this man held accountable for his actions. even though that’s an intellectually wrong statement. liberal socialist progressives in their morally and intellectually superior all knowingness; will tell us that we need to be more open-minded, tolerant, caring, understanding, and sensitive to this poor mans plight of having to live in a discriminatory society for being a muslim. only because those of us who aren’t muslim tend to have concerns about muslims flying off the handle and doing something like this, considering this is about the billionth time this has happened. i’m sure the reason this guy did this is because he was pressured into it by non muslims. wasn’t there a young girl just recently that fought not to go back to her muslim family in fear they would honor murder her and the courts sent her back and her father did honor murdered her. yyyeeeeaaahhhh
John Gargano commented:
Everyone feels anger in their life. Anger is often a vehicle of separation. Adolescents often employ anger to free themselves from the bonds of their parents. Many people, however, have no real productive means to vent their anger and in many cases anger builds up until it becomes an uncontrollable rage. We see this on our roadways every day and in acts otherwise rational people commit that cause them to end up in prison. How many times have we heard people say of the murderer or the terrorist – I never would have guessed…”
It would appear, from watching the Arab street and the Islamic terrorism that is so common today, that many in Islam take advantage of unchanneled anger and focus it into acts of violence committed in the name of God. This is a cruel travesty that consumes the lives of the children and other vulnerable followers of Islam along with their innocent victims. Perhaps some day Muslims may come to see how this cruel manipulation and consumption of their young, and many children grown old, robs people of their families and makes a mockery of their devotion to God. These acts of Islamic terrorism are textbook examples of psychological transference in which people eventually vent their accumulated anger which had built up to a critical mass, in many cases stoked by the process of radicalization, as they falsely attribute it to some innocent victim(s). This is the essence of terrorism.
Since acting out against those who are not the cause of one’s anger brings no real relief – because the anger is within, not caused by external forces – such anger simply escalates as it seeks to justify that which has no justification. And it seeks to rationalize that for which there is no rationale.
The man in TX who committed those horrendous acts was, just like his victims, spent by Islam like a worthless stone that is thrown through the air. They try to rationalize it and they try to justify it, however those acts unto themselves clearly expose the real truth. That which is valid requires no rationalization or justification. That which is valid stands unchallenged on its own merits. It seems Islam requires more and more justification and rationalization each day as terrorism goes on unchallenged by those who profess to be sincere believers.

I guess his sis ain’t Muslim, else she’d say he’s mental.
apodoca commented:
Under Islamic law, if he could pay a cash blood price, he’d walk. Let’s hand him Texas law. Welcome to Death Row.
mischief commented:
Under Islamic law you can’t kill a Muslim for killing non-Muslims, because the Muslim is worth more. (At least according to interpretations I have read with my own eyes.)

Just another black pretending to be a Muslim.
John Gargano commented:
Expressing outrage is fine. It is clearly justified. However, it accomplishes nothing with respect to solving the problem. I maintain that if we put forth an advanced level of understanding about the problem, only then may we begin to do the work of accomplishing the objective of stopping the behavior.
Christianity teaches that there are external negative forces that cause us to behave in a manner that is detrimental to our own well being. Temptation is the term used to describe the force that leads us all astray. We can even attribute temptation to the external force of Satan – an entity apart from ourselves.
Today, a great deal of work in modern psychology addresses the same issues in different terms that lead to a more secular approach of attaining an advanced level of understanding. Freud, for example put forth that the mind is actually made up of descrete entities – sort of like a committee rathen than one all-encompasing entity. In Freud’s view, the super ego is more or less equivalent to the negative force of temptation. Further advancements in psychology distinguish between the various entities that exist within us and the actual self. The negative influences are all referred to as external entities other than the self.
The point of it all is that whether we call it temptation, the super ego, or the dark side of the force, its all the same thing. There is a strong force whthin each one of us that is not looking out for our best interests – in fact, its doing quite the opposite.
The manipulators of radical Islam know about all of this much more then we do. They identify those who are vulnerable to cultivation of the dark side/temptation and they do in fact engage in brainwashing. And brainwashing is nothing more than getting people to believ that which is not true and then it convinces them to act on it.
So the manupulators if Islam consume even thrir own children and use them as their tools to accomplish their misguided objectives. It is telling that the leaders of jihad never go on suicide missions themselves – they get the unfortunate, naïve and vulnerable children of others to do their bidding. They fuel the anger which resides in each person, but they only recruit the ones who have the least amount of understanding and perspective about the external nature of negative influences.
The manipulators convince the vulnerable ones to internalize that which is in fact external. They cultivate, through the process of radicalization, anger into vehement hatred. They go so far as to cause people to destroy themselves along with their enemies. Only when the good Muslims see this clear truth will they stop alloing their children and relatives to be consumed by hatred to no productive end for anyone.

off topic, but relevant..
what Koch said, what Newspeak reported
["My comments concerning Muslim terrorist are well-known. I have often said that there are about 1 billion 200 million Muslims worldwide, and that the vast majority are peace-loving and decry terrorism. Nevertheless, I believe Osama bin Laden is the most popular figure in the worldwide Muslim community. If you estimate that 20 percent of Muslims support terrorism (defined as approving the intentional killing of civilians to achieve political goals) that would add up to more than 200 million Muslim terrorist supporters.
"I concur, as was stated by Abdel Rahman al-Rashad, the head of an Arab television channel who wrote in 2004: 'It is a certain fact that not all Muslims are terrorist, but it is equally certain, and exceptionally painful, that almost all terrorists are Muslims...We cannot clear our names unless we own up to the shameful fact that terrorism has become a Muslim enterprise, an almost exclusive monopoly, implemented by Muslim men and women.']

No need to worry as CAIR will tell us all how this is an “isolated incident”, and “this has nothing to do with Islam”. (rolling his eyes)
Nothing to see here folks, move right along, go about your day.
