Shouldn't this be in "frontpage news"?

This killing took place about a block from where I grew up. When I was a kid, in the '50s and '60s, this was a predominately Jewish neighborhood, and there was no crime at all. It's probably still a fairly safe neighborhood, but the ethnic composition has changed.

Well, problem is these people were Assyrian Christians. This particular account didn't include what the AP initially included, which was to get into MUCH detail about Assyrian Christians in the US.

In a way that they would never THINK of doing with a Muslim killer.

However, while someone can be a Christian, we cannot forget the milieu from which they may originate. Also, there ARE men who go nuts and kill their wives and other relatives over bizarre thoughts and don't need a religion or culture to be the wellspring of murderous rage.

I am afraid of the copy cat attacks too. I also wonder how many that we are never told they were Muslim happen too.

Are both Iraqi and Iranians known as Assyrians? In Central California, all the Assryians I knew were Iraqi - Doesn't matter, horrible story - but I'm curious.

Violent and stupid.

Satisfies most of the qualifications for a prison Imam, no doubt...

I was not really referring to this particular crime but more to the terrorist attack in the Utah Mall and the muslim taxi driver terrorist who ran over yesterday over 2 students in Nashville TN.

An enraged Iranian immigrant used a 3-pound hammer to beat his wife, sister-in-law and mother-in-law to death and then stabbed them repeatedly because he felt "disrespected,"

He felt "disrespected". Hmph.

I used to live about a half mile from there and, no, it is not a safe neighborhood anymore.

These days "safe neighborhood" is quickly becoming an oxymoron.
