With all due respect Sir, but I was referring to the mentioning of Faith by media - not you. Stating how the media radicalises and fuels hate - contributing nothing less than what ISIS does which works in their favour.

Facts such as she was murdered, had no previous link with this murderer and how he had just conveniently happens to have a baseball bat establishes quite a bit for any logical person.
Don't speculate on this case.

If you are bored, read someting interesting, like this:

Gun violence in Chicago spreads like an infectious disease — and now, researchers have figured out a way to predict who’s most likely get sick next.

With infectious diseases, predictions are fairly simple: The more relationships an individual has with sick people, the more likely he is to be infected. The longer it’s been since exposure, the less likely infection becomes.
Researchers at Harvard and Yale have adopted that same type of mathematical model to predict potential victims of gun violence in Chicago. In 63 percent of the shootings they studied, they found that social contagion played a key role.

The new model weaves together demographic risks — such as age, sex, and neighborhood — with social connections that might be playing a role. Specifically, the authors examined co-offending, or being arrested together for a crime. It’s been previously shown that people co-offend with individuals they’re close to, and the new study suggests that connection can be a channel for spreading “infection” — or, in this case, gun violence.

“Say you and I are friends and I’ve just been shot and we’re hanging out. By spending time with me, you’re now being exposed to the risk factors that led to me being shot,” said Ben Green, coauthor of the new paper and an applied mathematician at the Harvard School of Engineering and Applied Sciences.

Time was also a factor. Individuals were more susceptible to gun violence immediately after an associate they’d co-offended with was shot. On average, victims were shot 125 days after their “infector” fell prey to gun violence.

“It’s the same thing with getting a cold. You’re less susceptible the longer it’s been since you were exposed,” Green said.

Are mass shootings contagious? Some scientists who study how viruses spread say yes.
Researchers say the contagion is potentially more complicated than any virus. There is the short-term effect of a high-profile mass shooting, which can lead quickly to another incident. Towers found that such echo shootings account for up to 30 percent of all rampages.
But there appear to be longer incubation periods, too. Killers often find inspiration in past mass shootings, praising what their predecessors accomplished, innovating on their methods and seeking to surpass them in casualties and notoriety.
Behavior is contagious.Researchers think violence is no different.
In many of these events, the primary vector — what transmitted the behavior — was some form of mass media. Coverage of hijackings bred more hijackings. Coverage of suicides, particularly of famous people, had the same effect. In the month after Marilyn Monroe overdosed on barbiturates, suicides increased 12 percent nationally.
Some researchers think this loop drives mass shootings.

Think how that could apply here.
 
very unfortunate Terrorist Attack by another American .. and for people denying white/Christian Terrorism are just as Delusion as AQ/ISIS .. lets not forget the history when thousands was butchered in the name of Christs and God wills it .. ignorance on this thread from senior members is just disappointing to see
 
Investigation's pointed to nothing relating to a hate crime. Since the beginning of the incident and consequential police comments hate crime was left out.

The facts are the girl was among a group of other Muslims, originally it was ~10 Muslim sisters, then an additional ~10 Muslim brothers. Walking aback from sahoor at IHOP (28 minute walk) or McDonalds (20 minutes).

Unless the criminal blurted out hate speech against the group leading up to or during the murder it'll be impossible to charge him. Sure he may have seen her/sisters in hijabs, or brothers in taubs but how are you going to prove that?

If anything it shows the necessity of knowing who you hang around with or call "friends". The group got into an argument with the murder, thought their numbers would dissuade him. She and her "friends" outnumbered the murderer. But ran away.

You don't need to be faster than a bear chasing you and your "friend", you just need to hope you're faster than your "friend".
 
I still stand by there's more to what meets the eye and as far as I'm concerned this 'road rage' doesn't make sense?

May as well call the man who ploughed into people on Westminister bridge 'road rage'.
 
If you can't take a debate fine but don't put my comment under moderation because I've not said anything offensive.
 
There is no doubt that hate crimes and hate in general is increasing around the world. Politicians who spew hatred win and give an impetus to this hate. When I lived in USA and Europe 10-15 years ago, this was not the case. I should have been around in the 1960s and 1970s. What a sad era to be young in this is.
 
I'm speculating? And others aren't by claiming this to be a non-hate crime? Just because biased media and authorities say so? Right.
 
non-muslim men are attacking muslim women for wearing hijab , in many case even fatally

imagine if it was the other way around the news outlets would be going crazy over it , the netizens would be going crazy over it
 
This is a girl who was kidnapped. She was killed with a baseball bat and her body hidden in a pond. Road rage? Seriously? #NabraHassanen

Let me tell you something. There is a double standard for sure in regards to crimes committed by Muslims and non-Muslims in reference to the individuals religion. But lets wait for the facts to come out in this case. I would buy the anti Muslim arguement a little more if say this was a White local guy (terrible thing to say i know). The fact that this guy is an El Salvadorian worker leads me to believe this really did have non religious basis for his actions.
