        The contrast in how terrorists of different ethnicities are reported on by law enforcement and the media is so obvious it's painful.

        I love how "godly" is thrown in there, like it's a positive. Well, I mean, unless they're Muslims.

        Also fascinating how 'godly' in this case is perfectly fine, and not at all capable of warping someone's mind. Ridiculous.

        I'm a huge nerd, but I've never felt the need to slaughter people. They are trying to humanize this serial killer. Sick. Home-school is where he was radicalized.

        Or maybe we’ve grossly misunderstood what “tight-knit, godly family” means?

        Austin bomber was a white American man so cannot be called a terrorist.

        He was a homeschooled "Christian" who wrote negative views on abortion and gays, called himself a conservative and is white. So of course he will never be called a terrorist. At worst a will be called a "lone wolf".
