In the early afternoon of Thursday 16th June 2016, after leaving a meeting with her local constituents, the 41-year old British Labour politician Helen Joanne Cox, a married mother of two young children, was chased down the streets of Birstall, England by a man intent on killing her, a killer who was patiently lying in wait. The man subsequently stabbed her, then shot her, and left her to bleed to death in a car park behind the local library.

The article is about the difference between the media's attention tothe terrorist aspect of the motivation of the nut job who killed the MP.

From my perspective, atheist and deeply skeptical of everything and anybody, there are nutters out there, they will be influenced by any religion. I include communism and the racist right nutters in that.
