There's been a shooting at the Freeport refinery by a Middle Eastern male!

Quick, go search all 68 year old women at the nearest airport....

"Quick, go search all 68 year old women at the nearest airport..."

HA!
Don't laugh.

I'm surprised they even identified him as "a Middle Eastern male". In my area, they identify perps as "a brown-haired male wearing a green jacket", deliberately omitting any mention of race. Unless it's in a positive sense, as in "the elderly man that wandered away from the nursing home is Caucasian...."
