Amish? Hindu? Well, we can assume, as we are sure to be told, that his motive will never be known.

Even if it was perfectly legal in France, then the media would ignore the story or play Mueller with the person who shot and stopped the perp.

They'd turn his life inside out trying to link him to a Neo NAZI group while trying to understand why the poor dead little terrorist just snapped under all that White Privilege Repression.
