In reply to the discussion: Muslim taxi driver shot on Thanksgiving in back by customer after conversation about ISIS [View all]951-Riverside
(7,234 posts)11. I don't care about his story
I just want the bastard who did this caught.
What does the guy look like?
Why hasn't anyone released a description?
The driver said he has been driving a cab with Cranberry Taxi Service for a month and the vehicle was equipped with a video recorder. Police did not say if they have reviewed any video and a spokesperson for Cranberry Taxi Service could not be reached.
What the hell? Seems to me the Police is really dragging their feet here
He asked me to wait for a little bit because he forgot his wallet in the house. I waited for just five minutes, I think, and I noticed that he came out of the house carrying a rifle in his hand. I noticed him coming toward me
What is the address to the house where he got the rifle from?
Have they talked to the occupants?
Do the occupants know who the shooter is?
I bet if a Muslim man did this to a White christian cabbie we'd have all this information in a matter of hours and a matter of minutes if this guy shot up a police car.

It absolutely does. In fact, it's very difficult to find many talk shows that are not filled

So sad. I do think many of them fantasize what goes on in the ME as a fun thing. Pathetic. n/t

It should be pretty easy for the cops to arrest the perp in this case... Charge him with hate crime

Actually a bad guy with a gun, which means the gun nuts should not have a problem

Cops often aren't on the top rung for smarts. And some likely agree with him. Pathetic. n/t

agree. This is horrible but reflects unfortunately the mix of misplaced hate and gun availability IMO

The reactions in this thread make me think most of DU is unaware of the large number of bias crimes
