AP reports:
A man who had been fired from a food processing plant in an Oklahoma City suburb beheaded a woman with a knife and was attacking another worker when he was shot and wounded by a company official, police said Friday.
The 30-year-old man, who has not yet been charged, stabbed Colleen Hufford, 54, severing her head in Thursday’s attack at Vaughan Foods, Moore Police Sgt. Jeremy Lewis said.“Yes, she was beheaded,” Lewis told The Associated Press before a Friday news conference.
Lewis said the man then stabbed Traci Johnson, 43, a number of times before being shot by Mark Vaughan, a reserve sheriff’s deputy and the company’s chief operating officer.
While questioning the suspect’s co-workers, investigators learned he had recently started trying to convert several employees to Islam, Lewis said. Moore police have asked the FBI to aid in the investigation and look into the man’s background because of the nature of the attack, Lewis said.
Reportedly, the man was angry about having been fired from his job. It has also been reported that he had been trying to convince fellow employees to convert to Islam.

You’re welcome. Enjoy your weekend.
Thanks for the answer, I am offline until Monday.
Bradley, I think that in mentioning Mexico you are asking about a different article, not this one, and it is one that I didn’t write. As to your point about multiiculturalism, I don’t see the pertinence to this article, but I will answer it. You write:
“I am trying to get karnick to answer my assertion that Multiculturalism is not a spent force, because only Islam is a problem, not the other cultures.
“Multiculturalism Minus Islam is still saying Multiculturalism works.”
Actually, your premise, as stated in the second sentence, is false: if even one culture is not as laudable as every other, then multiculturalism is false by its own definition. As to multiculturalism being a “spent force,” I would never claim such a thing, because people can of course hold a belief even though it is false.
Back to the point of this article, I agree with you that it is plausible to conclude that beheadings may be going “mainstream,” but only time will answer that. My point in giving the article its provocative headline was to bring up that very possibility, which I consider to be a cultural phenomenon of valid interest.
—And yes, I am setting the number here based on a personal view. Even I think this could be the *start* of a mainstreaming of decapitations, but it could also be one of a few incidents. So I stand by the number 8.
—And, I also am giving up on the internet around 8 pm tonight.
You’re not seriously arguing that the “mainstreaming” of beheadings should not be treated as serious story, or a worrisome trend, are you?
I do not think there *is* any mainstreaming of beheadings. The first “Slenderman” stabbing was matched by a second stabbing, and an arson fire, for a total of three “Slenderman” incidents. Get the number up to eight, I’ll say “Slenderman” attacks are “mainstreaming.”
Get the number of beheadings up to eight, I’ll say “mainstreaming” is happening. But not until the number eight.
—I am trying to get karnick to answer my assertion that Multiculturalism is not a spent force, because only Islam is a problem, not the other cultures.
Multiculturalism Minus Islam is still saying Multiculturalism works.
Bradley, what article are you talking about? Not the one linked at this post. You’re not seriously arguing that the “mainstreaming” of beheadings should not be treated as serious story, or a worrisome trend, are you?
At the heart of multiculturalism is an attack on Western and Christian values. Much of that attack has its roots on college campuses among the intellectual elite who see their mission as indoctrinating our youth.
—Considering how Christian Mexico is, I cannot figure out how a Multicultural endorsement of Mexico as an equal to the West is an attack on Christanity.
—To clarify, I intend to get offline at around 8 pm eastern time tonight, and stay away from the internet until Monday.
—This is the last time I am asking this. Why is multiculturalism not going to work with Mexico?
—The article says “western elites” have had this for decades. So? Multiculturalism is not a spent force with Mexico, just with Islam.
—And, as a minor point, I am giving up on the internet until Monday.
Mexico is not relevant to the discussion. In addition, your argument constitutes the fallacy of the vacuous truth and the fallacy of the undistributed middle:
Multiculturalism works with separate cultures.
Mexico is a separate culture.
Therefore, multiculturalism works with Mexico.
—So, is Mexico a seperate culture, or not? I assume it is, and Multi-culturalism can work with it.
Kidding aside, copycat crimes are still crimes, and this story has significance in that regard.
My response to your comment was intended as facetious, just like yours was.
—Mr. Karnick, you are acting like a nut.
