The police statement said: “Terrorism is one possibility being explored at this stage.”

I wish there were some way to predict who would do this kind of thing.

Just a general idea would help.

A fan of Anders Breivik is usually touted until they quietly admit later that he wasn’t a fan of Breivik and had accomplices who just happened to share his religion but of course there is no link there.

Does no description mean Mohammad Coefficient is near 1.0?

A Muslim didn’t do it. A knife did it!

And that knife has nothing to do with Islam.

“A man....”

You’d think they’d be worried that there would be a backlash against men with that sort of talk. I’d go with “an entity”, just to be safe.

Muslims never kill, only the weapons, however confederate flags do kill according to the media and the ignorant fools who believe the media.
