and the hardest part is that Muslim people already have a bad reputation and are given a negative stereotype since 9/11, this really doesn't help Americans to feel safe and trusting towards Muslim Americans when things like this keep happening to our innocent people and the gunner is of that nationality. why can't people realize that they do themselves and their people NO justice by hurting/killing others it only makes the stereotype and the situation worse for them and their fellow Muslim people. Now American people will have even harder time with their ever increasing trust issues towards the Muslim American people. this didn't solve the problem of racism and stereotypes, it actually made it worse....why didn't this man realize that??
