text: RC, the problem is whenever anything violent happens we seem to be drawn to whatever stereotypes we want to confirm. In the case of minorities, we'll usually find some family background that is angry black, dissatisfied middle eastern, islamic, antiamerican immigrant, etc. But other than some token "connected to white supremacist" or misplaced southern pride these events the usual story is abstract mental issues, depression, etc. It's rare to see anything presented as "my faith drove me to it" even if the evidence is out there. Obviously, it's all nutty. Violence is not the answer. But don't kid yourself. They all do it, right/left, christian/islam/etc, and the usual thuggy riot enthusiasts when there's no soccer game to pillage over.
