    I know Canada has had a huge immigration influx, which is blamed for the housing situation, and a few other things.

    I’m a little concerned that this hate crime (because that’s what it was, really) will lead to more. As in, against brown immigrants in general. I mean, this sort of event feeds directly into the conservative red-neck narrative, made worse by actually being true.

    What I can guess is that part of the reason no charges were immediately brought up is that immigration might be coming in. But that’s just an uninformed guess.

    In any case, absolutely tragic. Those women didn’t deserve any of this.
