Have we made America great again yet?

Two men were killed in a stabbing on a MAX train Friday when they tried to intervene as another man yelled racial slurs at two young women who appeared to be Muslim, including one wearing a hijab, police said.

A third passenger who tried to help was also stabbed, but is expected to survive, said Portland police spokesman Sgt. Pete Simpson.

Officers arrested the suspect as he ran from the Hollywood transit station into the neighborhood near Providence Portland Medical Center in Northeast Portland, Simpson said. Police are still working to identify him and the three men stabbed.

Why is it going to "get" ugly?

"He was talking about a lot of different things, not just specifically anti-Muslim," Simpson said.

I guess when electroshock therapy fails, it impairs reading ability.

In all seriousness, this one sounds like a mental health issue. But I bet lots of people will spend the next few hours trying to link it to political agendas.
 
Be very careful - as cisforhoke noted, let's not make this political just because. Thanks in advance
