The driver who police say intentionally drove a car into pedestrians in California this week targeted his victims because he believed some of them were Muslim, police said Friday.

The Sunnyvale Department of Public Safety said in a statement that the suspect, Isaiah Joel Peoples, 34, "intentionally targeted the victims based on their race and his belief that they were of the Muslim Faith."

1. He's not white.
2. He's a vet.

Simple.

It didn't fit the narrative so it didn't get the play it might otherwise have. No surprise there. Weird though that he used that tactic against who he thought were moslems.

Vet?

The left and their compliant media have been keening on for years about the "right wing" threat of returning vets.

The media should be running with this just over that.

Add to it he was "Thanking Jesus" right afterwards?

Double whammy.

Why would it be instant national news?

Drivers plow into pedestrians and other vehicles all the time. Many are driving under the influence.

What seems to have made this newsworthy is that the driver claimed he thought the pedestrian were Muslim.
