So this may have been a hate crime after all.

1. I saw some Sikh women being interviewed and they made it not about themselves

or their community but about all people in the community. They send that message often. Imagine if evangelicals would say the golden rule whenever they found themselves in a public situation.

5. Sikhs

are the only conservatives that I can tolerate.

7. They are not Conservatives in Canada. They are well represented in all three

major parties.

2. Yeah, when I saw the names of the victims last night on the screen, the idea

that 4 of them were clearly part of a specific minority group totally jumped off the screen at me. All kinds of red flags and alarm bells went off.

3. Reportedly, about 90% of the workforce at the warehouse were from the Sikh community.

6. There others were white. I think there were two 19 year olds

one was about to get her first paycheck.

8. Some workplaces have a lot of one ethnic group-

as they hire on the recommendation of current employees.

So it might be that a lot of the night shift just happened to be Sikhs.

Then again, HALF of the victims-- he could have targeted them.

Sikhs are a small community in Indianapolis, but growing and supportive of each other. This terrible crime must be devastating-- they probably all know one of the victim's families.
