ABC News—The father of one of the suspected gunmen in the Garland, Texas, shooting told ABC News today that his son "made a bad choice."
Elton Simpson
"We are Americans and we believe in America," Dunston Simpson said. "What my son did reflects very badly on my family."
Simpson's son, Elton, was identified earlier today to ABC News by a senior FBI official as one of the suspects in Sunday's failed attack on a Texas community center that was hosting an event displaying cartoons of the Prophet Mohammad. Elton Simpson and another man were killed by a police officer after they opened fire on the officer and a security guard, local police said.
Today FBI agents and a bomb squad were at Simpson's home in an apartment complex in north Phoenix conducting searches of the apartment. Officials believe Simpson is the person who sent out several Twitter messages prior to the attack on Sunday, in the last one using the hashtag #TexasAttack about half an hour before the shooting. Prior to that, the Twitter account holder had published messages sympathetic to Islamic terror groups such as ISIS.
Dunston Simpson said his son worked at a dentist's office but was "on vacation" for the last few weeks and that the two last spoke three weeks ago. But they "had not much to talk about, because we had some very serious differences."
Still, the elder Simpson said that while he was a strict father, Elton was "always a good kid." . . .
Kristina Sitton, who represented Simpson in the 2010 trial, said her former client had been on a no-fly list and that the FBI had attempted to get Simpson to cooperate with them, even after his conviction. She saw him, she said, as "harmless."
"He grew up the most normal guy. Just a normal high school guy... Converting to Islam seemed like a good thing for him. He had been going down a bad path and then he found Islam," Sitton told ABC News. "He never struck me as someone who would do this sort of thing. I'm not a bleeding heart, I'm a Republican. I've seen some pretty bad guys and he seemed pretty normal." (Continue Reading.)

Texas Jihadist Elton Simpson Was a Convert to Islam
If Elton Simpson hadn't converted to Islam, he would still be alive today.

Still alive for what?
Allah says:
"Indeed, Allah has purchased from the believers their lives and their properties [in exchange] for that they will have Paradise. They fight in the cause of Allah , so they kill and are killed. [It is] a true promise [binding] upon Him in the Torah and the Gospel and the Qur'an. And who is truer to his covenant than Allah ? So rejoice in your transaction which you have contracted. And it is that which is the great attainment." [Qur'an 9:111]
In fact, you need to actually stop blabbering through this site every time Muslims attack you for your alleged "freedom of speech" against our Prophet Mohammed, Peace be Upon Him. If your culture and civilization is based on harming other's holy beliefs, then you are right, Islam is a threat to such things.
Hassan, there is nothing holy about your dead prophet who himself didnt know he could get into the brothel you call jannah. If you want the press to stop attaching islam to criminals, tell the muslim criminals who identify themselves that way to stop using islam. It really is that simple. However, i dont expect muhammdans to get it.

- Get real!
Anas b. Malik reported:
The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: Amongst the apostles I would have the largest following on the Day of Resurrec tion, and I would be the first to knock at the door of Paradise. [Muslim].
Anas b. Malik reported:
The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: I would be the first among people to intercede in the PARADISE and amongst the apostles I would have the largest following (on the Day of Resurrection). [Muslim]
It was narrated from Abu Musa Al-Ash’ari that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said:
“I was given the choice between being admitted to Paradise, and I chose intercession, because it is more general and more sufficient. Do you think it is for the pious? No, it is for the impure sinners.”
Done! Do not just bring copy-pasted articles that show verses of the Qur'an, quoted,twisted and reinterpreted to fit the writer's attitude. If you are referring to Surah 46:9, then please bother to read a single commentary on that verse.
@ Hassan,
You are a madrassah educated, stupid, brainwashed Muslim. Don’t get mad with me, I criticized you boldly, intentionally and purposefully, because you support destructive work of Devil and unaware of love and kindness of True Almighty God.
Simple wisdom is that when God claimed Himself just, righteous, merciful, kind etc. He also proved Himself all those qualities by His actions not by words only as Muslim believe. Two simple examples illustrate God’s justice and kindness for all including Muslims: 1) God gave all natural resources such as sunlight, rain etc. to all mankind for their survival whether they believe Him or not and last not least 2) God gave His only begotten Son Jesus Christ to die at the hand of criminals to forgive all mankind’s sins (God’ kindness for mankind). Question to you Hassan: is killing unbeliever of your Allah maintains justice and kindness as your Allah claim? Why does your Allah not kill unbelievers by himself, if he is true god?
There is no difference between motive of your Allah and that of Devil. Motive of Devil is to destroy and lead beautiful creation of us (human being) by God’s own image. And motive of your Allah as you referred Quran 9:111 also to destroy mankind God created by His own image. Jesus Christ in the Holy Bible, ordered His followers (Christians) not to judge others. He will judge everybody at Final Judgment Day, whereas Quran, your Allah told you to kill Christians who do not believe your Allah and Muhammad. Is this fair and just, Hassan? Are you following command of True God, who created you and me or you are following command of Devil disguise by cloth of God?
Hassan, I would appreciate your comments. Thanks!
Hassan, theres no freedom of speech in Islam. Your prophet was an ego seeker, he behaves like a primary school kid who's afraid of criticism.
Elton would still be alive if he didnt convert to your dead prophet's cult. That means his imaginary god allah cant tolerate criticism, i think the bedouin's creativity skills of imagining his pagan god would have been better than that lol.
Osama Abdallah, please come quickly and refute your "akhi" by telling him that Elton was a Zionist who tried to make Islam look bad.
Hold on, i wonder if Osama would propose that Hassan is a Zionist lol.

".....If your culture and civilization is based on harming other's holy beliefs,...."
Hassan, do you think only Muslims have the exclusive right NOT to be offended? The Koran itself ridicules the belief system of Christians, and calls the Jews "apes & swine". Why do you think we should have to tolerate the offensive language that your Koran reserves for us, yet Muslims do not have the stomach to take criticism from others?
Muslims know no other way but to resort to violence, because your prophet could not stand any one ridiculing him so he sanctioned violence and murder of those who mocked him. This sick psych is passed on to his rabid followers.
That is the truth.
Hassan: "If your culture and civilization is based on harming other's holy beliefs, then you are right, Islam is a threat to such things."
Democracies usually grant all people free speech, including the hate speech of Islam. Islam isn't the only belief that gets regularly ridiculed and bashed, but only Islam is so insecure, it produces slaves that are driven to terrorism. Can you please explain this phenomenon to us?
No group should be granted special rights, most especially the single cult that uses slaughter as a defense.
If you don't like the way Islam is disrespected, why don't you encourage every convert to move to your Muslim strongholds? They still imprison critics and behead them. Avoid all social media, for you will see Islam insulted regularly. Confine yourselves to caves, and the world will be a happier, safer place.
Islam is a death cult. People who want to join get possessed by evil jinn and want to kill and die. What type of "religion" is this?
Hasan, you want me to rely on manmade hadeeths which make your prophet out to be a sexual predator, child molestor, murder, war mongerer, thief, and overall thug?
Muhammad is dead. He is rotting in his grave and 2 billion muslims are begging allah to give him the highest place in paradise. Obviously muhammad is not there. Isa is.
The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: I would be the first among people to intercede in the PARADISE and .. [Muslim]- Anas b. Malik reported
@Hassan,
Read Quran with your 6th sense. Do you believe all these non-sense? If you do, could you answer following questions: 1) If, your prophet Muhammad be first in PARADISE, then why do you pray for him daily for his place in PARADISE? We pray to Jesus Christ daily and we get what we pray to Him. 2) Why was your prophet Muhammad killed by poison, if he was prophet? 3) Why could your Allah not save Osama bin laden from hands of CIA?
Poor Elton Simpson lost his life because of his stupidity and possession of evil spirit achieved by conversion from Christianity. Due to separation from Jesus Christ, he lost both life; life in this world as well as life in PARADISE. Only Jesus has the key of PARADIS, no one else.
To stop this killing there must be laws to protect non-Muslims from cruel teaching of Quran. Unless Quran is banned, non-Muslims’ right to live with democratic value must be maintained with 0 tolerance.
Nojmul,
Those are great points, both of them.
When I was still Muslim I sometimes wondered why non-Muslims prosper and do just as well or better, didn't seem in keeping with Allah's character.
In the period when I was leaving Islam I realized that the personality of Allah is no different from Satan, the only difference is one is called "Allah" and one is "Satan" but they both have the same words and deeds. Now I know that more likely Allah is a parody that Satan might have made of God. If you take God minus the love you get "Allah".
@Mahsheed
Allah and satan are one and the same. It was identified in the bible centuries before islam that a being will come who will;
-seat in the seat of God and exalt himself above every object of worship
-deny the Father and son
-be of severe punishment
-have no regard to what is liked by women
-say despicable things against the King of kings (Jesus)
-be worshiped by people from all nations, tribe- young,old, rich, poor
-come in the name of peace but destroy many
-persecute christians
The only problem is that he has been granted powers to overcome christians. I believe that one day no christian will walk on this earth(it is for the good of christians though)
Moose ouma, perhaps that's true. I think every day and age has its spirit of antichrist leading to the final battle and the final antichrist appears, and Islam is one of several. I think it is Rene Girard who said Christianity is the only religion that predicted its own defeat.
@ Mahsheed,
Thanks for your testimony and understanding truth about this world and life in light of Jesus Christ.
Everything makes sense with concept of Christianity such as love your neighbor and be loved by others, do not judge other, you won’t be judge by God, forgive other to be forgiven by God. Ask to God, you would be given, etc. etc. With Christ Love is above everything even faith and hope.
But with concept of Islam introduced by Muhammad everything is dark. Muhammad used sword, sex, lie, hypocrisy to establish his evil empire. Interestingly Muhammad became hero for Hassan and Hassan is ready to kill other for Muhammad and his Allah.
Sadly Hassan could not recognize the friend who died for him to keep him in PARADISE, as he is looking for. This is the fantasy devil make to blind fold human eyes to keep them into dark from light. It is funny that Duke University opened a faculty for Islamic study. What a shame!!
@Mahsheed
There is so much wisdom and gentleness in what you have to say, my friend.
Thank you Paige, I enjoy your comments likewise, find them full of wisdom and insight.
