It's not just the latent racists, but all of us who need to keep this in mind.

Part of me sees the logic in looking toward the Muslim community (here and worldwide) for suspects, but another part says 'Hey wait! Aren't we just judging someone on the cut of their clothes or whether or not they trim their beard?'

It will be a long time before we can resume life as it was, and meybe that time will never come. Thanks for putting your concerns into words.

We all share the horror of what happened, and we all hope for a world in which this will never again happen.
