re: #145 makeitstop

I really hope they’ve got the guy. I read somewhere that there were tensions between Muslims and Hispanics in that neighborhood, and the police said that the shooter was someone with lots of experience with firearms due to a surveillance video that showed him calmly murdering the two men.

I’m afraid that if the shooter is still at large, he could attack again.

Missed this earlier. I hope so too.

I read the same about the “Muslims and Hispanics” tensions, but it ticked me off because the NY Daily News article I read identified them that way no less than three times. From my page:

Here’s what I want to know: If the murders had nothing to do with religion, then WHY are police & sources identifying only ONE group of people involved in the alleged feud by their religion? Why not describe them as “Bangladeshis and Hispanics” or “South Asians and Hispanics”—why keep referring to “Muslims” if religion has nothing to do with it??
