Trying to distance ourselves from them is the natural reaction. "They are not Christian" is the first thing we want to think and say, but they are saying they are. Those that may not be Christian will see them as such. So we make statements to say that what they did is not Christian, that we do not recognize them as such, that we are against their extremist stance on something that we also do not agree with but would not go to such extremes, or even think about doing so, in order to combat it. And inevitably, many people will ignore all of that and just say that his Christian beliefs led him to do what he did.

At least Christians denounce the heinous actions of other "Christians" like this one.
