A lone gunman killed a Queens imam and his assistant as the pair walked home from Saturday afternoon prayers, shooting each in the head from close range, cops and witnesses said.
Both victims were dressed in Muslim garb when targeted by the shooter, who fled the scene on foot and remained at large. Members of the mosque quickly denounced the double homicide as a hate crime.
“That’s not what America is about,” said local resident Khairul Islam, 33. “We blame Donald Trump for this ... Trump and his drama has created Islamophobia.”

They blame Donald Trump? that is really an innappropriate accusation.
Sorry to see this. Hopefully they catch whoever's responsible.

Funny they don't blame the guy who pulled the trigger.
Some people just want to blame Trump for everything (even this economy, I suppose).
Sorry to see this. Hopefully they catch whoever's responsible.
Thanks Trump.
The new Thanks Obama.
Trump is an offensive and incendiary little prick.
You're giving Trump too much credit. He's a teensy wiennsy, itsy bitsy prick. Hell, maybe that's too much.

Are you implying that slimy liberal hacks are predictable?
It's a diversion. It's probably the same DNC hit man that hit the wiki leaks source.

We can't immediately assume they were killed because they were Muslim.
But if they were -- I agree that Trump has made matters worse in that arena.
A guy shoots up a gay bar while shouting Allah Ackbar, killing 49.....blame guns
2 Muslims shot dead.....blame Trump.
Unless Trump ordered them killed, it's not his fault.
Sorry to see this. Hopefully they catch whoever's responsible.
