Muslim caught in park with AK-47 assault rifle

Dearborn, Michigan: Muslim caught in park with AK-47 assault rifle
third-year medical student -- which fact recalls the recent Doctors' Plot in the UK, and the news that came out at that time of large-scale attempts by jihadists to recruit doctors and other professionals.
But let us not rush to judgment. Maybe he was hunting squirrels.
Video here (thanks to Ray).
Coverage is very sparse. Here is a story from the thrice-weekly Press & Guide, "Man with AK-47 assault rifle arrested after leaving Dearborn's Hemlock Park":
DEARBORN - Houssein Zorkot, a 26-year-old Dearborn resident, was arraigned Tuesday in 19th District Court on multiple felony charges, including carrying a dangerous weapon with unlawful intent - a five-year felony.
Zorkot, a third-year medical student at Wayne State University, was allegedly armed with an AK-47 assault rifle and dressed in black clothing with camouflage paint covering his face when he was arrested Saturday in Hemlock Park.
According to police, Zorkot was observed attempting to leave the park in a black SUV after officers had received reports of a man carrying a rifle in the area. He was placed under arrest and is scheduled to undergo a preliminary examination at 9 a.m. Sept. 21 in 19th District Court.
Zorkot has also been charged with one count of possession of a loaded firearm in a motor vehicle and one count of felony firearm. He remains in custody on a $1 million bond (cash, no 10 percent).

Just as long as they ban muslims and not AK-47, I have no problem with him being caught. 0 -
really! I wonder where he got the full-auto AK. 0 -
...Why so shocked 0 -
I didnt see where it said full auto?
It makes no diffrence, full or semi. Just seems full auto is harder to get, and I didnt see that part?0 -
Big deal.
He was going to a paint ball match at the park, and accidentally grabbed the wrong gun running out the door.
Happens to me all the time...0 -
Any one can find a semi AK, but full aut, if thats ture, where did he get that? 0 -

Lmao!!!!!0 -
I'm sure they have easy access to AK's. And they only need the parts to turn into a fully auto. 0 -
It seems that this guy has a web domain http://www.zorkot.org/Houssein2.html 0 -

unless they don't know what the hell they're talking about! but that wouldn't happen, right?0 -
Dearborn and goes to Wayne state? he was just on his way to class.... 0 -

This is the American mass media we're talking about here. Most of them can't tell the difference between a semi-automatic military-style rifle and a fully-automatic assault rifle.0 -
I can see how getting an AK is easy, and turning it into auto is not that complicated, so I can understand that
BUT
BuschM? response to you and also a serious question.
I was not aware that "assault rifle" meant full auto?
I thought that any rifle semi or auto that could fire multiple rounds in succsession be it 10 20 30 50 ect. could be considerd an assault rifle?
I may be wrong and I need to know the answer.
I also belive that the media portrays any rifle in question more like what I have come to think. wrong as I may be. and in such case I am wrong and have been duped by the media.
When someone says
Assault rifle, it is full auto alwys, or could it be a semi auto that looks like the full autos they shoot on tv?
serious question?
Thanks0 -
One Miami cop was shot and killed today by a gun owner who fired at him with an AK-47 type rifle...
... but please, let's not be quick to judge all gun owners. He may have been aiming for his wife.[}:)]0 -

By definition, an "assault rifle" is any rifle capable of selective-fire, with an effective range of at least 300 metres and is chambered in an intermediate cartridge, such as the 5.45x39mm or 5.56x45mm. Any semi-automatic rifle which shares some of these characteristics, like a civilian AR-15, should be considered a "semi-automatic military-style rifle" or an "assault weapon". The confusion probably stems from the latter term, which I think was coined by the Democrats in the United States in order to induce such confusion.
Edit: this video helps with the definitions:

I guess what Im wondering is that rifle was a AK-47 but if it was semi auto or full auto, who knows. But the media will call it an assault rifle. 0 -
an assault rifle will have full auto fire capability. if it does not, it is not an assault rifle. an M16 is an assault rifle. an AR15 is not. an AK47 is full auto and it is an assault rifle. a semiauto variant of the AK47 is not an assault rifle and it is not an AK47 any more than an AR15 is an M16. what the loony had was NOT, I repeat, NOT a genuine AK47. 0 -
so the diffrence is
Assault rifle vs Assault weapon?0 -

Did you check out his 2005-07 Lebenon trip? No doubt what he was planning..0 -
Okay now Im following you BuschM[:D] 0 -
My guess would be, but maybe not correct that this person had an ak-47 like gun that shoots 7.62x39 but semmi auto, miss labled by the media, or possibly not as a true AK-47 full auto, or possibly was a full auto.
I think the media must just use the phrase assault rifle without knowing the diffrence?
Or maybe they do and it was a full auto AK
Either way I like your information
Thanks

It would be interesting to know wheather it was imported into the U.S. made in the U.S. or smuggled into the U.S.[?][?][?][?][?] 0 -
I bet the FBI is still not sure of the guy's intentions. 0 -
stupid stupid media idiots!!! he has something like this, for example, a semiauto-only WUM-1 
and they spout this crap
"Muslim caught in park with AK-47 assault rifle."
it would be laughably stupid if it weren't scaring mounds of dumbasses who don't know the difference between a buttstock and a muzzle into thinking any such rifle is an AK-47 and that all such rifles are eeeevil. my gawd! they all need to be bitch slapped.0 -
