Whoa: Looks like OSU attack suspect recently decried media's negative 'picture' of Muslims

obviously he was pushed over the edge by conservatives or so the story will go.

UPDATE: Multiple outlets now report #OhioState attacker's name Abdul Razak Ali Artan, while car used for attack registered to a Muhammad Ali

The Somali-born Artan was reportedly a student at OSU. A student who, it appears, was profiled in OSU’s campus newspaper only a few months ago:

This portion of the profile may be of particular interest in light of today’s attack:

Huh.

Guys, it's only the media putting bad thoughts in your head about Abdul Artan. He even says so. pic.twitter.com/mGcN7dnyrj

"Even tho I plan to drive a car into a crowd & knife people, u should ignore the bad things ppl say abt Muslims."

So it was the media running people over & stabbing them. I see.

Will this help to fuel the Left’s tendency to twist themselves into knots to paint the attacker as the real victim? Don’t be surprised.

Yes, the failed spree killer was the "real" victim. Obviously.pic.twitter.com/InUEkTCMk6

aw he was scared. Must have been what tipped the poor victim over the edge.

Not enough free hugs. We failed this young man as his life was just beginning. Where were the safety pins if he felt triggered?
