"Hijab Girl" press extravaganza...
Meet Faisal Hussain's parents spin doctor...Mohammed Hashim is a professional activist and full-time organizer for the Toronto & York Region Labour Council. Social media accounts belonging to Hashim show him heavily involved in supporting NDP candidates both federally and provincially in Ontario.So what has ol' Mohammed been up to lately?
Shortly after the Ontario Special Investigations Unit revealed the identity of the Danforth shooter as 29-year-old Faisal Hussain, a news release was sent out to select media attributed to the “Hussain Family”.The Hussain family, who live in a "community housing" apartment on Thorncliffe Park Dr., obviously don't have two nickels to rub together.
To date, no member of the Hussain family has spoken publicly or made any direct contact with media. Hashim refused to answer questions from the Sun about the Hussain family and his connection with them.
So who is paying for their professional P.R. guy?

RELATED: Dear Mohammed Hashim...
You retweet another persons tweet about your carefully crafted but unsigned "Hussain Family" statement. That seems a little bit dishonest.**********
UPDATE: No terrorist connection?
Police discovered a cache of ammunition underneath Faisal Hussain’s bed, including loaded magazines for an AK-47 rifle, two fully loaded 9mm handgun magazines, and a variety of loose ammunition. Conspiracy theory videos about 9/11 were also found, newly unsealed police documents revealed.And where's the evidence for all your assertions about mental illness? And I don't just mean anecdotes from friends...
The National Post has learned that Toronto Police files show little evidence of the typical history of a person with a florid mental illness such as “psychosis,” as his family said. A senior police source, while cautioning that this doesn’t mean Hussain wasn’t mentally ill, said that often with such people, there are frequent encounters with police — calls from the family for help, suicide attempts or committals to hospital under the Mental Health Act.**********
With Hussain, the source said, “we have very little of that.”
The third party, who had distributed the family’s statement, didn’t reply to a Post email Tuesday, asking if he had any light to shed on the apparent contradiction between the statement and police files.
LAST WORD:: Canada's national broadcaster has a problem...
...separating criminals from victims... well, sometimes...
