And you equate this to Boston bombing and want to make a story out of it?
Do I know it happens without this story being posted? Sure.... Doesn't make it right. And shrugging it off as saying non-story only encourages the discrimination.

The fact that the Boston bombings were by radical muslims, stories like this will get media attention. We still hear stories of passengers in planes had a person removed because they were muslim( or at least were dressed like they were from the middle east).
