Professor, you hit the nail on its proverbial head here. I talked to my Baby son after it happened and before they released a picture of the guy, and I can't lie (as my people are won't to do) -- I said, "I hope like HAYELL, this ain't a Black guy!" We'd both heard the name, but when the picture was blasted on CNN, I said -- "Welp, it's a Black guy." The son said, "Nuh-uh, Mom, he looks like a 7-11 Indian to me" (What can I say, he's got thoughts too!) , I disagreed. I told him he looks like a Black Muslim, Brother -- we'll certainly see, Son."
East TX is a whole 'nother country, Fam -- holding onto shit that America SEEMS TO NEVER WANT TO FORGET, for a variety of reasons.
You're right, Professor -- his brown skin WILL be enough to justify planned deportations -- know that "Dem dolla, dolla, bills Y'all still reign supreme!
But let's not forget, what he and the guy that blew his ass up in Las Vegas at Trump International -- BOTH, American soldiers sent to fight an Obama-approved, "Just War" in Afghanistan...
