    The modus operandi would not point to white supremacists.

    Time will tell.

    It won't be too difficult to identify the suspect.

    We know the rules by now...

    If its some white supremist loon, some will be delirious , while if its a Islamist /Isis type the other side will be along with hot takes.

    Culture wars are a cancer.

    I've heard the news describe it as "not terror-related", so money on it not being a white or middle-eastern man.

    One of the police officers confirmed dead, the other still in hospital. Suspect dead too. You would have to wonder what the hell he thought he was going to accomplish doing this. All he done is get himself killed. This will be forgotten by next week.

    Live long and Prosper

    Peace and long life.

    The city's acting police chief has said the attack does not appear to be terrorism-related. An investigation has been opened.
    ...

    Two law enforcement sources involved in the investigation told BBC partner CBS News that the suspect in the attack was 25-year-old Noah Greene from Indiana.

    They added that no prior information about him had been found on any police databases, and that he did not appear to have any ties to the military.

    Choosing to end your days in a Nissan Altima makes you look like an arsehole.

    https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nation_of_Islam

    "it maintains that the current Allah will soon return aboard a spaceship, the "Mother Plane" or "Mother Ship," to wipe out the white race and inaugurate a black utopia"

    Sounds reasonable
