In Artan’s Facebook post he explains that he’s sick of seeing Muslims mistreated around the world.  In the United States the persecution of Middle Eastern people increased after 9/11.  The year after the incident hate crimes against Middle Eastern people went from 354 in 2000 to over 1,000.

Running over people with your car at Ohio State doesn’t solve the problem.  Two wrongs don’t make a right!
