San Bernardino Spite

One thing I know for sure about this situation

I have nothing to say at this time about the San Bernardino shootings, until we know who did it, and why they may have done it. Thanks to the police there, we will probably have that information soon. What I do want to say is how repulsive I find all the people on Twitter, Facebook, and yes, in the media (see above), who have shown themselves all afternoon eager to cram this atrocity into a preferred political narrative. The certainty that there will be millions of people disappointed when the identity of the killers and their motives are revealed makes me despair of what we have become in this country.

For the record, Bloomberg Business, the shooting happened four miles away from a mosque. It happened 1.2 miles away from a megachurch. So what? Jerks.

UPDATE: I agree with Russell Moore:
