So close... yet so far

Once again, the dead tree media sets about winding up the lunatic left... this time it's Islamophobic hate crimes perpetrated by the Christian far right...halls of macadamia/Only problem is... turns out the shooter is an atheist and a hard core leftie...
A review of the Facebook page of the man charged in these murders, Craig Hicks, shows consistent themes of anti-religion and progressive causes.
Oh, yeah, one more small detail... it had nothing to do with Islam either...
CHAPEL HILL, N.C. — An ongoing parking dispute between neighbours sparked the shooting deaths of three family members at a quiet condominium complex near the University of North Carolina campus, police said Wednesday.
A tragedy... yes. A "hate crime" involving even a single Christian (terrorist or otherwise)... no.

Despite acknowledging the police statement about this being a dispute over parking, a CBC headline posted at 1:47pm Wednesday claims police are still looking for a motive.

UPDATE: Not Obama's children this time
Ripley Rand, the U.S. prosecutor for the Middle District, which includes Chapel Hill and Durham, said federal authorities had not launched a separate investigation of the crime. Rand said that from the early details of the Chapel Hill investigation, the killings did not appear to be part of a targeted campaign against Muslims.

“This appears at this time to be an isolated incident.”
Translation... obvious whackjob kills a bunch of people for no good reason. Not religion. Not [insert group here]-phobia.

Sorry to disappoint.

LAST WORD: Nonny from the comments is right

We have to consider ALL the evidence...a trayvon momentSupport for terrorism? Anti-semitic? A 9/11 truther?

Funny... the mainstream media reported none of that.
