In Puerto Rico, the dominant faith is Catholicism.
You think the professional Muslim-haters will even mention this?
The anti-Hispanic racists will bring up his ethnicity, Megyn Kelly at Faux "news" already has.

In Puerto Rico, the dominant faith is Catholisism.
So it's a good bet the shooter is Catholic.

They have already labeled him, "the other" in the article blaming President Obama for the shooting.
Archae
(47,245 posts)4. Yeah, Allen West went on Faux "news" to blame Obama.
I just wonder why it is so important to people like Megyn Kelly, that the shooter is Hispanic.
I guess in Faux "news" fairyland, white, Christian males are NE-VER to blame for mass shootings...

Gun wasn't good enough for him.

(47,245 posts)7. And the shooters at the Texas cafeteria and California McDonalds...
Both of them were white Christian males.
