2016 - (Deletion of this section)

Detailed reasons why this section has been deleted; 1) I’ve followed the ongoing reports of the terrible crime this section refers to, and I’ve checked the most recent reports on the consequent court case. This court case has made clear that the murder was a random attack and was not driven by racism. 2) Evidence tendered to the court showed that the cause of the attack was extreme psychiatric illness, including schizophrenia and psychosis, & the attacker was found unfit to stand trial for this reason. Since the core theme of the article is racially motivated violence (a fact that should be reflected in the title, but is not), this makes the mention of this crime superfluous to this article. 3) In addition, the current text is about 2 years out of date and does not reflect the court’s findings. For these reasons, the section does not deserve to be in this article and should be deleted. I hope you accept my good faith in making this edit. Cheers! 203.39.222.146 (talk) 12:12, 30 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Visits by publicity hounds

Why are visits by various publicity seekers more important than the chronology and details of the attacks? I think the previous structure was much more logical. Greglocock (talk) 21:01, 12 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
