So now they're going for ALL Muslims. How refreshingly non-nationalistic. Don't care if they're Arab-Americans, don't care if they're black Americans; since they're Muslims, they're clearly not really Americans. Right?
The Travis County fire marshal's office is investigating Saturday's incident as a hate crime. Well, DUH. Trying to firebomb someone, even if it didn't work, would seem to be a strong indicator of at least mild dislike, wouldn't you say? Since this particular firebombing didn't work, I wonder how long it will be until they try again? Or until they try something else.
