> One thing all these terrorist attacks on american soil have in common? The perpetrator was a white american male. I do not see why you introduce the race issue here. All the terrorist attacks in the USA after 1995 (last unabomber kill) have been performed by far-right extremists, and this includes islamists and american conservative nationalists. Terrorism in america is clearly a matter of politics, not of race. |

The gist of the article is that the person was selected for this treatment because he wasn't white
The gist of the post was that's fine, because all terrorists are brown
The accuracy is that if you wanted to select people based likely to commit a terrorist attack in the US on appearance, you're looking for
1) Male
2) White
3) American
Clearly I don't think that means all White Male Americans are terrorists, but that highlights the absurdity of the anti-muslim movements that balooned 20 years ago and are still prevalent in western discourse.
