Hit and Run

The hit and run rampage in San Francisco was virtually ignored by the media here.
The driver deliberately ran people down, including two in front of the Jewish Community Center of San Francisco. Sound familiar?

The excuses have begun. Officer.com reports that some family members said Popal had mental problems and lived in fear of the devil; others said his recent arranged marriage may have made him stressed.

Yes, of course! That makes perfect sense!

The Anchoress expresses what many are feeling today:

"This is becoming an appalling habit in the press and by politicians. An Islamic fundamentalist shoots Jews in a Synagogue, and it’s some sort of random incident. An Islamic fundamentalist uses his SUVto kill people partly in front of a Synagogue, and in what would appear to be a somewhat “Jewish neighborhood” and the press takes a hours to cover the story (probably looking for the appropriate “frame,”) and until someone in authority can be found to sing out, “ROAD RAGE”! Yeah, that’s the ticket! Road rage! Mayor Newsom sees no problem, here…a “relatively young” person, obviously confused! Yes, that’s the ticket! What the hell is wrong with the press, what the hell is wrong with the leadership? Why are they so incapable of calling anti-semitism what it is, of calling a terrorist action what it is?"
