That's the point, he did not point ANYTHING out....just "Christians" which you fail to realize...
Actually if you read the post it is directly quoted from the news report, and from the band themselves. The only place that Christian is mentioned at all is in the title which says "Christian BAND" Not "ALL Christians" or even "Christians".
How does an unknown street band with unknown members qualify as a "Christian" band? Christian bands are legal, reputable, entities backed by both major and indie labels. These young people weren't known to anyone outside of their own neighborhood much less the Christian music industry.
What odd criteria.
They self-identified as such.
The group that used to play at my church wasn't known outside our neighborhood nor were they backed by a label, but I assure you, they were a Christian band.

I did read it, and no it's not...here, let me post the entire link for you:
Why should "Christian" even be in the title? What is the purpose of it?
It's kinda like when the media talks about a DEM, they never say (D) but when a repub is talked about that's at the top of the page...

COTTONWOOD, ARIZONA (KIVI-KNIN)—New details are emerging in a weekend shooting in Arizona that left one dead -- and involved at least eight Treasure Valley residents.
Ruth Gaver, 52, Peter Gaver, 55, Nathaniel Gaver, 27, and Jeremiah Gaver, 28, all of Boise are being held in the Yavapai County Jail on several charges including assault on a law enforcement officer, assault and hindering prosecution.
The Yavapai County Sheriff’s Office has identified Enoch Gaver who was shot and killed during the struggle.
David Gaver is currently hospitalized after being shot in the abdomen.
According to reports, around 11:50 p.m. on Saturday, March 21st, the Cottonwood Police Department received a call from the Cottonwood Wal-Mart that a female employee had been assaulted by “multiple suspects.”
Officers arrived on the scene and were attacked by several individuals. During the fight, one of the officers received a gunshot wound into his leg.
According to Arizona Department of Public Safety spokesman Bart Graves, investigators believe that three shots were fired and officers struggled with a suspect when the gun discharged.
The Gavers were believed to have been living in a large camper in the parking lot for several days prior to the incident.
On Your Side has learned the family members comprised a local band known as Matthew 24 Now. According to the band’s Facebook page, Peter Gaver and his sons, Jeremiah and Nathan, are members of the band.
Matthew 24 Now has also been known as “Busking In The Son” and is known to have played music on the sidewalks near the Albertsons store on 17th and State Streets in Boise.
Two juveniles from the Gaver family are also in custody at the Prescott Juvenile Detention Center.
Peter, Nathaniel, Ruth and Jeremiah will appear in court on March 31, 2015.
Matthew 24? Uh lemme guess some sort of crazy prophetic street performers warning about the end of times.
Christian Band? Uh no.
