[quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Here's an article in this morning's WaPo - note Parker's comment about headlines.

Agreed.  The OP was equally irresponsible in his post, which didn't belong in the political section.  But I guess that makes me an idiot.[/quote]

I would be more persuaded by your and Parker's argument if the media didn't almost universally believe that religion is an important thing to mention when Muslims are assailants rather than victims.

The fact of the matter is that we are unlikely to know the truth of what happened in this murder. The police can interview the alleged killer and his wife, but they can't interview the victims. The goal of the alleged perpetrator and his wife will be to avoid the death penalty and their best strategy for that will be to show that the killer was acting irrationally -- such as in response to a parking dispute.
