When news broke that Arcan Cetin, the monster responsible for murdering five innocent people at a Macy's in Burlington, Washington, is a Turkish Muslim and not Hispanic as the MSM reported, we were not surprised.
Now, Heavy is positing that some of Cetin's online portals offer more food for thought. The outlet did some digging into Cetin's various social media accounts and found posts that do seem to emanate from Cetin.
Heavy unearthed what appears to be Cetin's Tumblr profile, which contains references to Allah and, apparently "serial killers." Heavy also reports that his Tumblr account links to a page that praises ISIS leader Abu Bakr al Baghdadi.
Heavy reports:
The photo is of the leader of ISIS, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi. The comment under it says, “My main dude, Abu bakr al big daddy. #al qaeda.”
The comment under the post links back to the first Tumblr page bearing Cetin’s photo and his name. In addition, the profile picture on the meowfraulein Tumblr page appears in the set of photos on the Arcan Cetin Tumblr page – in the same set as the photo that also appears on the Twitter page that the Times has identified as the alleged gunman’s.
According to Heavy, back in 2012 one an apparent friend posted on Cetin’s Facebook a comment reading:
“You remind me of Wrath, cuz you know a lot about weapons and stuff, and I can imagine you taking out a lot of soldiers by yourself. :o”
Other postings appear contradictory. In some of his online posts, Cetin appears to support the ROTC and considers himself politically conservative -- at least it appears he made some disparaging comments about Democrats including Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton. At the same time, there are the positive references to Allah and the Islamic State leader, among other questionable posts including supporting Hillary.

One thing is certain, however: "There's no indication this was terrorism" should not be the first comment out of authorities' collective mouth after attacks like these. Nor should the attacker's identity be obscured.
