"The rush to attribute culpability to a minority after an act of mass murder is a rush to exonerate the general public â€“ how can we specify the ways in which the killer was not â€œone of usâ€?

When they are just another white male, the only remaining option is to locate a disability diagnosis."

-- Ari Ne'eman
