"Let's Hope, More Solemnly and Seriously, That it is Over."

A reader writes:

Shock, utter & total disbelief, incredulity illimitable, that the Beltway & Vicinity Sniper had a "Muhammad" attached to his name.

And color me scandalized that anyone could express a scintilla of dubiety, an iota of doubt, about Islam being a religion of peace.

Granted, it's not quite as peaceful as the True Religion of Peace (La Cosa Nostra) but nobody's perfect.

And as to the other point, we could fill a 600-page ledger with the black-on-white hate-crimes of the last 15 years that haven't been labelled as such. Give this current rascal "credit" for seeming to be insouciant of the race of his victims.

Let's hope, more solemnly & seriously, that it is over.
