Why does it seem like something like this happens at least once a year in Paris? I feel bad for the innocent victims, I'm so sick of senseless violence.

We have our apolitical shootings by random nutjobs. They have occasional Islamist shootings.

It's unfair (and racist) to equate Muslims with terrorism. Radicalized individuals come in all races, ethnicities, religions, and nationalities.

-Islam isn't a race. Muslims can be of any race.

-In the case of Islam, there is a clear connection to terrorism. A highly disproportionate number of terrorists are Muslim. It is the religion/ideology that causes this, not the race of the individuals.

Prejudice, bias, etc. it's all the same thing.

That really depends on how you define terrorism. Are white male mass shooters considered terrorists? Does it really matter? It's all senseless violence, but "mass shootings" are FAR more common than "terrorists attacks" in this country. I can't speak for other countries.

Lets hope she is ok. It's a huge city, so she is probably ok.
