"The Case of the Missing Skull Cap"
"Now, I have no idea what happened in Colorado yesterday, except what I read in the news, and the killer's religious persuasion may or may not have something to do with his motive to murder. But, I distinctly remember reading eyewitness accounts of the gunman at the first location as "a white man in his early 20s, wearing a dark jacket and skull cap and carrying a handgun."
Curiously, however, the term "skull" is inexplicably missing from the latest news report on the incident which refers only to the gunman's "dark jacket" and "cap" when mentioning eyewitness accounts.
Now, readers can assume that the killer wore just about any kind of cap - a baseball cap, a beret, or even a beanie - anything but the distinctive skull cap typically worn by orthodox Jews.
Investigators have pretty much concluded that the killer at both locations was one man - a devout Christian, who one anonymous law enforcement source has said "hated Christians."
The gunman believed to have killed four people at a megachurch and a missionary training school had been thrown out of the school about three years ago and had been sending the school hate mail, police said in court papers Monday.The gunman was identified as Matthew Murray, 24, who was home-schooled by his family and raised in what a friend said was a deeply religious Christian household. Murray's father is a neurologist and a leading multiple-sclerosis researcher.
Now, maybe I'm reading too much into this. And I would welcome evidence of other recent news reports that still include the word "skull."
But, then I would also need to see some explanation as to why a devout Cristian would be wearing a skull cap and why no eyewitness saw him wearing a skull cap during the second rampage.
Now, I'm not saying that the media should blame Jews when they're not guilty, but they damn well shouldn't be in the business of hiding it when they are."
