It’s customary to notify next of kin before releasing the name to news organizations ... the police probably have to call someplace in Egypt or Saudi Arabia and the calls aren’t getting answered ....

Arabic and Muslim names are notoriously difficult to spell and pronounce. They are are probably learning how to do it right as to offend anyone..

Lebanese, I am sure it had nothign to do with religion...

The liberals will say that maybe he was just "gunning" for a "Section 8"

It is "pride month" you know...

I’m puzzled that the Los Angeles Police are handling this instead of the Santa Monica Police, or so it seems.

Santa Monica Municipal Code:

3.24.010 Firearms—Permit.
No person shall shoot or discharge within the City any gun, pistol or other firearm, or any air-gun or pistol, or spring-gun or pistol without having first obtained a written permit from the Chief of Police. (Prior code § 3500)

Did the shooter have a permit? /s

You're on the case Tex!
