Man shouts 'get out of my country' before killing 1 man and injuring 2 at Kansas bar
#26
I wonder if while wire tapping Trump's phones he is also deleting all the tweets about attacks on foreigners?

Quote:The U.S. ambassador to India and the Indian foreign minister tweeted words of support Sunday to a Sikh man shot near Seattle, another in a series of troubling and sometimes deadly hate-driven attacks across the nation.

Deep Rai, 39, told police he was approached outside his Kent home late Friday by a masked man who, after a brief argument, told Rai to "go back to your own country" and shot him in the arm.

A manhunt was underway for the shooter. The national Sikh Coalition asked authorities to investigate the case as a hate crime, and Kent Police Chief Ken Thomas said he has reached out to the FBI.


Thomas called Rai "absolutely credible" and said investigators believe the attack took place "as he has described."

"I am sorry to know about the attack on Deep Rai a US national of Indian origin," tweeted Indian Foreign Minister Sushma Swaraj. She said she had spoken to Sardar Harpal Singh, Rai's father, and that Rai was hospitalized but out of danger.

Police investigate shooting of Sikh man as possible hate crime



Ambassador MaryKay Loss Carlson also tweeted a message of empathy.

"Saddened by shooting in WA. Wishes for quick and full recovery. As [url=https://twitter.com/POTUS]@POTUS said we condemn "hate and evil in all its forms" Carlson said.

Male Sikhs often wear turbans and don't shave their beards. The faith originated in India's Punjab region, although more than 500,000 Sikhs now live in the United States. Rai, who is from the Punjab region, is a U.S. citizen.

Sikhs have been targeted before. In 2012, six Sikhs were killed in a shooting rampage at a Sikh temple in Oak Creek, Wis. Shooter Wade MIchael Page, 40, who had neo-Nazi and white supremacist affiliations, fatally shot himself after a gunbattle with police.


"This is the first incident of this magnitude that I'm aware of in the city of Kent," Thomas said of Friday's shooting.
