Sometimes you should take the bad guys at their word. They actually mean the evil shit they say. This was an attack on our Jewish brothers and sisters. It should be treated by the FBI as a hate crime.
Dude takes hostages at a synagogue.
AP: we've heard from the FBI that this isn't about Jews. Please don't say this is about Jews.
