On May 26, 2017, Jeremy Christian, a disturbed homeless man, stabbed three men to death on a mass transit train in Portland, Oregon. According to media reports, Christian made anti-Muslim remarks to two teenage girls who appeared to be Muslim. Reports also say that he made other "anti-everything" and "anti-religious" remarks. The three men were stabbed as they attempted to defend the girls.[1]

The left-wing media was quick to label Christian as "racist," "right-wing," "Islamophobic" and a "white separatist," despite the fact that his Facebook posts painted a very different picture, showing him to be left-wing in his opinions, such as supporting atheism, marijuana use, and opposing controversial oil pipelines, and to hate all "monotheists," including Jews and Christians, and to be anti-racist.[Citation Needed] He was also vehemently opposed to Hillary Clinton, Donald Trump, religion, and circumcision, the sort of conflicting ideology often found in morally misled terrorists.[2] He stated that it what he did was "patriotism," and within free speech guidelines.[3]

He also voted for Bernie Sanders and supported Jill Stein in the 2016 presidential election, was rejected by Trump voters at events, and held many other left-wing positions.[4][5]
