seems like the more liberal politicians have been pushing a message of "move along, nothing to see here" for this attack and the others that have happened in the past few months. i don't mean that they're saying the attack didn't happen or wasn't terrorism...but it seems like they're trying to rule out al qaeda and isis before the investigation even takes place
Seems like the best way to identify an attack by a Muslim extremist is if there is no immediate identification or description of the attacker in the MSM, then you know it was a Muslim extremist. Anyone else is immediately identified or at least described.
