Teen Radicalized By Islam Goes on Stabbing Spree, Murdering One Boy and Wounding Two Others;
Networks Embargo Story Completely

The spree attack featured the Wrong Weapon and the Wrong Religion, and did not support the Right Narrative.

So it's a non-story, an unfact.

News broke on March 13 that a Florida teen had been arrested, after stabbing to death his friend and attempting to kill his friend’s mother and another peer at a sleepover. The suspect confessed afterwards that he had recently converted to Islam and his beliefs motivated him to murder.

While the horrific violent act was covered by local news in Jupiter, Florida, and nationally March 14 by Fox News Channel, the big three networks have ignored the story thus far.

...

The reason for the attack? Johnson told police that two of the boys had made comments that offended his Islamic beliefs. His friend’s brother, Dane, had "made fun of" his faith and how he prayed, while Sierra allegedly had called celebrities, "gods," which upset Johnson because it was against his faith to idolize others as a god, he told the police after he was arrested.

The police report noted that this was a premeditated attack. Johnson and his friend Kyle had watched violent jihadist videos that encouraged death to non-believers while Johnson also admitted to reading the Quran before going to the sleepover. He told police that the Quran inspired him and "gave him courage to carry out his intentions."

This son of a bitch was caught making threats to a Catholic school in England. The FBI identified him, but did not arrest him:

In January 2017, local law-enforement agencies and the FBI came together with staff at William T. Dwyer High School in Palm Beach Gardens, where Johnson was a student at the time. The Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office had received information that Johnson supported the Islamic State (ISIS) and had reached out to the group online, saying he would like to join them, the Palm Beach Post's Hannah Winston reported.

A sheriff's detective interviewed Johnson and said the teen sympathized with terror organizations.

...

After connecting the teen to violent threats against a Catholic school in England, law enforcement monitored his movements and his social media accounts, discovering the image of a swastika as his Facebook profile picture. The FBI did not want to charge Johnson because he was a juvenile, so the agency "believed a redirection approach would be the most beneficial regarding his conduct." The agency got consent to "mirror" his computer activity in March 2017.

The FBI spoke with Johnson, who denied any affiliation with ISIS, and told him "to cease all social media activities related to ISIS and any other terrorist organization." By last summer, however, Johnson had returned to online terror posts and engagements with ISIS, police reported.

Last month, the FBI said it had all the evidence it needed and that an assistant U.S. attorney had probable cause to charge Johnson. On March 5, Jupiter police checked in with the FBI to see where they were with federal charges, which the agency promised would be "coming in the next several weeks."

But the arrest didn't come. At least, not until he'd committed murder.

Could it be that Obama's "Promise Program" -- which instructed local schools not to report dangerous students to police, to keep their records clean (and, consequently, to keep them eligible to buy guns) -- is responsible for further murders?

Yes, I know he used a knife, not a gun. But had he been arrested after making threats to the Catholic school, perhaps he might have been put in jail after subsequently restarting his Islamist social media habits, and an innocent boy would still be alive.
