This was not a hate crime

As always, it is advised that editors find reliable sources before changing the motive of a crime. According to multiple sources, including the FBI, this was not an act of hate against any one group. This was not homophobic hate crime, but rather an attack on Americans in an act of terrorism. Editor3125 (talk) 23:27, 15 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
