Actually, as I said not three or four posts ago, the real-life scenarios in schools almost always involve single nutjobs of no political or religious significance. So using Muslims terrorists would be just as misleading as using Christian fundamentalists. Zarqawi is no more relevant than McVeigh.

I used some early-morning Google-fu to locate the story about the white supremacist who shot up a day care center. Here you go. This is the only religiously-inspired school takeover/killing in the U.S. that I know of. And it ain't by a Muslim. Thus you, Gawain, are no more accurate in your scenario painting than was the school.

As I said before, you can't help but wonder why they bothered being so specific with the scenario anyway.
