GARLAND, TX — Over the weekend, a cartoon contest was attacked by two armed terrorists. The cartoon contest was a free speech event and featured depictions of Mohammed the Muslim prophet. The keynote speaker was Geert Wilders, a Dutch politician, who also happens to be on an Al Qaeda hit list.

The shooters are Elton Simpson, a well-known criminal to the FBI since his conviction for terror-related charges, and Nadir Soofi, Simpson’s roommate. Simpson had tweeted, “May Allah accept us as mujahideen.” According to CNN, “The tweet from Simpson also said he and his fellow attacker had pledged loyalty to ‘Amirul Mu’mineen’ (the leader of the faithful), which CNN terrorism analyst Paul Cruickshank said probably refers to ISIS leader Abu Bakr al Baghdadi.”

The two shooters, wearing body armor and heavily armed, pulled up to the venue and started shooting. An off duty traffic officer who happened to be working security killed both subjects, ending the attack within 15 seconds. The only injury was to an unarmed security guard who was shot in the ankle.
