61 +On April 18, 2017, Kori Ali Muhammad fatally shot three White men in Fresno, California, following an earlier killing of a White security guard. Muhammad told police that he intended to “kill as many White males as possible” and targeted his victims specifically because of their race.{{footnote}}2017 Fresno shootings. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2017_Fresno_shootings{{/footnote}}

69 +Fresno police made a point to declare that Muhammad was "not a terrorist" but rather a "racist filled with hate."{{footnote}}2017 Fresno shootings. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2017_Fresno_shootings{{/footnote}} This choice of framing illustrates how racial motive is treated differently depending on the racial identity of the victims and perpetrator.
