Lawyers for the Farook family accused the media of racially profiling his client
A lawyer for the family of one of the suspects in the San Bernandino shooting said that the media has been unfairly smearing his client because he is Muslim.
"Until there is absolute clear evidence, every headline doesnt have to say 'Muslim massacre' or 'Muslim shooters,'" said David Chesley, a lawyer for the family of Syed Farook, part of the husband-wife team allegedly behind the attack. "Because its going to cause intolerance and what we need is forgiveness."
Chesley said in a press conference that the media was unfairly characterizing his client's actions as terrorism-related, when there is also evidence that Farook may have had trouble at work and the attack could have been a work-related incident. He noted that co-workers may have teased Farook about his beard, which could have caused him to snap.

"Because its going to cause intolerance and what we need is forgiveness." Forgiveness for whom -- and forgiveness for what, Mr. Lawyer?

The Muslim shooters launched a successful Muslim attack and finally died fighting for the Muslim cause.

I would jail their families as co-conspirators, their guilt to be decided at their trials.

These guys need to be encouraged, because it’s actually starting to seep past the layers or mush and garbage in the heads of liberals. Keep up the good work!

OK, you attorney POS. ***MAY*** have teased your client.
Guilty.

... there is also evidence that Farook may have had trouble at work and the attack could have been a work-related incident. Golly, most people having trouble at work try to blow up the place and kill everyone... NOT! Muslims tend to be deranged and nuts when slighted; normal people work it out without the beheading and terror. Farook was farooked up.

Somebody needs to inform this boob that Islam is not a race. It’s a totalitarian ideology posing as a religion.
