I can see that mentioning race, in a reply to commit about motive was wrong. I was speaking to coverage of crime through the prism of race rather than motive. I did not intend link motive to race but I can see that it is logical interpretation but was not my intention. Apologies.

Hands up. My comment was to “coverage” of crimes though the prism of race rather than to your comment which is directly related to the lack of reporting of motive of the crime. I see that it was not appropriate. Apologies.

Inter-race crimes = more coverage = more investigative work as to motive

Maybe the reason that the news outlets are not chasing the reason for this crime is because of the race or religion of the man in question. Intra-race crimes get less clicks therefore less coverage.

A white male committing a crime drives less clicks. If a Muslim is in custody, we would be seeing more media coverage. If it’s white male in custody less coverage. Media cares about race/religion, I do not.

My guess is the suspect in custody is a white (likely Christian) male.

No tax tips though👍
