Three Palestinian Arab men were shot and injured in Burlington, Vermont, on Saturday in what authorities suspect could be a hate-related crime, The Hill reports.

The Burlington Police Department (BPD) said in a press release on Sunday that two of the three victims are in stable condition while the third sustained “much more serious injuries.”

The three men, who are each 20 years old and of Palestinian Arab descent, were visiting the home of one victim’s relatives in Burlington for the Thanksgiving weekend and were walking along a street when they were confronted by a white man with a handgun.

Police said the man discharged at least four rounds without saying anything and fled on foot. Two of the victims were shot in their torso and one was shot in the lower extremities, police said.

Burlington Police Chief Jon Murad suggested the incident could be a hate-related crime.

He was wearing a hat. It might have been red! This is all Trump’s fault! Hey. It’s Albino Joe, sh!t-faced drunk again, got ahold of his daddy’s .22 pistol. What a head case.

“Vermont”

“white man”

Not exactly narrowing things down, now. Are we.

Maybe this is a Jess Smollett situation that backfired...
What time of night was it?
Where were they going?
Were that chanting “Allahu Akbar”?

Without video security tape showing otherwise, I’m assuming that the nearby synagogue was being targeted and Constitutional carry saved the day...

And some on the left think they are getting what they want. Little do they realize we are NOT the people the communists are telling them we are.

I suspect we’re not hearing the whole story.

Nowhere in any of these updates is there any evidence as to the race or identity of the perp. Neighbors saw nothing. Victims? Might be lying and this is some inter-family dispute they’re covering up. “Yes, it’s between Sukouri and Hawitat. Let’s just tell the police that it was a white boy. Later, we’ll have revenge on those Hawitat bastards.”

Three Palestinian terrorists shot by someone unidentified in the dark Saturday night, no details yet on the interaction before the shooting, was it in self-defense?

It’s just counter-Jihad.

Nothing to see here.

Actually, Vermont is kind of RED. But like too many states, a few cities run the tables. Some liberal college towns, liberal retirees that wanted to move to the mountains and, Voila, Sanders and Leahy.

Probably one of the whitest places in the country, with black college students and athletes making up most of the ‘black population’ in the state.

It the state does suffer from a really bad pill prescription pill problem.

Either way, their story is BS.

Well, the most important clue is the man flashed two middle fingers after shooting the...immigrants,...and tattooed on each middle finger were the words This Is MAAG[sic] Contry[sic].

Update:

Police did not identify the victims names, but the families later released their names in a statement. Hisham Awartani is a student at Brown University, Kinnan Abdalhamid is a student at Haverford College and Tahseen Ahmed is a student at Trinity College, according to their family members.

Police say there is no additional information to suggest the suspect’s motive, such as statements or remarks by the suspect at this time.

The shooting took place two blocks from a synagogue. Now, it was an open and welcoming one, “inclusive, multigenerational congregation that fosters friendship and caring between all of our 300 member families. We come from many Jewish paths and embrace our diversity as our greatest strength”, but at this moment in history, a sentence that starts “3 Palestinians walk by a synagogue...” you do have to wonder.

What irony! Purveyors of hate become the victims of hate. Who would have thought?
