The alleged gunmen in a shooting rampage that left three people dead outside a San Diego mosque have been identified as 17-year-old Cain Clark and 18-year-old Caleb Velasquez, according to a law enforcement source.

At least one of the suspects took a weapon from his parents’ home and left a suicide note that talked about racial pride, a law enforcement source told The Post.

Clark attended Madison High School and was a standout wrestler, according to the school’s social media page. His grandfather, David Clark, 78, said: ”We’re very sorry for what happened. We know as much as you do. It’s a shock.”

Clark and Velasquez were found dead inside a BMW from self-inflicted gunshot wounds only a few blocks from the Islamic Center of San Diego.

Anti-Islamic writings were found in the suspects’ vehicle and “hate speech” was written on the firearms used in the shooting, according to the source.

“””His grandfather, David Clark, 78,”””


So we now know who Cain Clark’s grandfather is.

What about Cain’s parents? What is their political affiliations? Democrat, by chance?

The parents are probably too busy planning and working on social media tributes for their little angels.

Maybe they found out about Muslims and homosexuals????

The story refers to a suicide note that mentioned “racial pride.” One again, we are seeing the Pandora’s box that is opened when news reports withhold information. One of the teens appears to be hispanic. The other is caucasian. Muslims can be of any race, as can hispanics.

Most or all of the worshippers at the San Diego mosque were likely of Middle Eastern origin, and how they get categorized racially has slipped into bizarro world in DEI imaginations. Being a leftist means accepting the infinite morphing of the meaning of words.

What is “racial pride” supposed to suggest when a white kid and an hispanic kid shoot people of Middle Eastern origin?

***********************************
The media so badly wants them to be little white boys. When they say “racial pride” they don’t say what kind. Even the so called white boy, looks a little hispanic to me.

“hate speech” was written on the firearms used in the shooting

They never define what constitutes 'hate speech'..........

I recall seeing on another FR posting that some of the 9/11 hijackers were linked to this San Diego mosque.
