Thread Name: Attacks on Arab-Americans Must Stop!
Subject: RE: ATTACKS ON ARAB-AMERICANS MUST STOP!
I agree with you Joe. These off-shoots of Nazism are troublesome, but without a Hitler, they will never compare to the Nazi era of the thirties and forties.

I don't know if your local newspapers carried the story, but I am sad to report that our Valley mourns the senseless murder of a man, Balbir Singh Sodhi, that took place over the weekend in Mesa, a suburb of Phoenix. There seems to be no motive other than the fact that the Killer assumed the man was an Arab. Why? He wore a turban. He wasn't. He was a Sikh, and a highly respected business owner. The idiot that murdered him (shot him twice in the back) has been arrested and charged with first degree murder, and for attempting to murder three others who he thought were Arabs.
