Cascade Mall Shooter A Turkish Immigrant, Probably Muslim, Learned To Shoot In ROTC

09/24/2016

In the case of the Cascade Mall shooter mentioned earlier, witnesses said the shooter had a "Hispanic appearance", a fact the MSM was unwilling to promote.

The suspect who has been arrested does have a more or less "Hispanic appearance", but is actually a Turk named Arcan Cetin:

A suspect in the shooting Friday at the Cascade Mall in Burlington was arrested in Oak Harbor today.

The shooting in the women’s Macy’s store took the lives of five people and injured a woman.

KIRO reports that a deputy with the Island County Sheriff’s Office noticed a man in Oak Harbor who looked like the suspect and took him into custody without incident.

Oak Harbor resident Chris Wathen said he witnessed the arrest when he was hanging out on Oak Harbor Road. He said suddenly about nine cop cars showed up near Dean’s Sports Plus, officers ran out and about 30 seconds later they had the suspect in handcuffs.

Wathen said his friends recognized the man as a former Oak Harbor High School student who graduated last year.

Here are the two comments

20-year-old Arcan Cetin taken into custody.

If you vote "D" for governor who wants a score of muslim refugees entering our state weekly or for Hilary who wants millions constantly, get used to seeing more of this news. This will be the end of the American lifestyle as we know it.

Heavy.com, whose "5 Fast Facts You Need to Know" series frequently omits race, ethnicity, immigration status and whether someone is a Muslim or not, does at least manage to say that he’s Turkish (almost everyone in Turkey is Muslim):

Online records show that Cetin was arrested in July 2015 on charges of assault in the fourth degree. Initial descriptions had described Cetin as being Hispanic. According to his Facebook page, Cetin is a native of Adana in Turkey. He’s a graduate of Oak Harbor High School, class of 2015. Cetin describes his nickname as “The Turk.” As of 2014, he was in a relationship. While in high school, Cetin was in ROTC.
Cetin is an active Call of Duty player.

The word "immigrant" is not used. "Native of" in stories like this is, in effect, a euphemism for immigrant.

He is presumably an American citizen if he was in ROTC.
