At work yesterday this guy came in while I was on the loading dock. "How about that Boston marathon stuff, huh?" he asked, by way of conversation. I don't keep up with the news too much. I knew about this but not up to the minute stuff. Non-committally I answered, yeah, pretty crazy. "Fuckin Muslims," he went on. What??? I thought I had heard about a white suspect but I wasn't sure. But that made me a little uncomfortable. Fortunately this guy works for a different company in the building and not mine. "If they want a war, let's give em one," he went on before moving to another topic. Good lord. Offensive. This was just some nut, not part of anything organized and certainly not the Nation of Islam or whatever. I didn't really say anything, being again uninformed at the moment and not knowing this guy too well.
Anyway I'm glad to hear at least these horrible kids are eastern European, white, and apparently not religious (according to their father). We don't need more people getting prejudiced about race and religion and stuff.
