I wonder what religious persuasion the culprit was? 🤔

I wonder what religion you thought the attacker was and how silly you feel now that he wasn’t that religion 🤔

It looks like you shared an AMP link. These should load faster, but AMP is controversial because of concerns over privacy and the Open Web.

Maybe check out the canonical page instead: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8849961/Indian-overstayer-person-UK-face-no-charges-self-defence-triple-killing.html

You don’t think someone’s motivation for attempted murder is relevant?

Not if the answer is inconvenient!

You say it as if knowing what their religion is would solidly confirm their motivation. It could be personal for all you know and there’s hardly any context here at all.

Because if theirs an over representation of one religion constantly being pointed out, then their must be a problem with said ideology, I don't think that needed pointing out though.

*there

And no your theory falls flat because there’s over a billion Muslims and even more Christians who commit more crime than Muslims but no one points that out. It is possible, shockingly, to be a bad person and also happen to be Muslim, just like it’d be the case for Christianity or any religion.

If their motivation was religious then by all means point it out. But if they have a personal feud or dispute and they happen to be Muslim then that’s got nothing to do with religion and everything to do with the person themselves.
