E) Untreated paranoid schizophrenia greatly exacerbated by the media telling him Trump is a bigot and that white people hate Muslims.

I don’t hate Muslims. I have a lot of concerns about Islam, but I don’t hate an entire race of people based on the actions of a small percentage of them. If I thought that way I would have to hate every ethnicity including white people. There are good and bad people in every single ethnicity, I have had Muslim friends and coworkers who are peaceful people who love America and hate terrorists. I have had white classmates and coworkers who are self avowed communists who hate this country and have called for conservatives to be rounded up and put into concentration camps.

The problem is the media only shows us the worst members of each ethnicity. When we hear about Muslims its usually terrorism related, when we hear about black people its usually about gang violence or BLM riots, when we hear about white people its usually pedophiles or mass shooters, when we hear about latinos its usually illegal immigrants or drug dealers.

I strongly believe in MLK’s dream of judging someone by the content of their character, not the color of their skin. I don’t want people to pass judgement on me for being white, so I won’t pass judgement on others for being non-white.

Islam is not a race, it is a belief system. And that murderer's actions were totally consistent with that belief system. Educate yourself.
