    Yeah, shooter here, stabber there… But nobody writes about their reasoning. Not so clickbaity? Or nobody can actually figure out why?

      You can see him in the parking lot video. The guy looks EXTREMELY disheveled. I’d be giving him a real wide berth if I were in a store with him.

      Well when you put a stigma on mental health and you cause a lot of misery with your policies this will happen. Add in climate people are more aggressive when they are hot, and financial uncertainty this is a recipe for disaster.

        My guess is the suspect in custody is a white (likely Christian) male.

        So you claim that being a white male is the reason, my racist “friend”?

          A white male committing a crime drives less clicks. If a Muslim is in custody, we would be seeing more media coverage. If it’s white male in custody less coverage. Media cares about race/religion, I do not.

            Why did you bring up the race question then? I was talking about the reasons for the assault and the lack of public explanation of those reasons.

              Maybe the reason that the news outlets are not chasing the reason for this crime is because of the race or religion of the man in question. Intra-race crimes get less clicks therefore less coverage.

                    That’s not what he’s saying nor what happened here.

                    What happened is someone speculated it was a white Christian man.

                    That’s not reason. That’s rascism. Just because it’s against whites doesn’t mean it’s not racism.

                    No person should be profiles because of their skin color. no one.

                    But I claim that the reasons for these assaults have no coverage at all regardless of the race of assaulter or victims.
