Being black has absolutely nothing to do with this horrendous crime he has committed ---it's very unlikely a black Catholic, or a black Lutheran would have done this. There are "muslims who happen to be Black" (wherein your assertion would be correct) and there are "Black Muslims" (a Black-supremacist cult with some connection to Islamic ideas, one example of which is Farrakhan's Nation of Islam, another is "5 persent Nation of Islam" (the group the Beltway Sniper belonged to)

I think a black Wahhabi convert would be likely to do something like this guy did. I don't know about black Shiite converts ---maybe. Whether he is NOI or Wahhabi or Shiite, I think all of those would be more likely to do this act than a black Lutheran convert. I wouldn't trust a white Wahhabi convert any more than I'd trust a black one.
