Comment: "The arc of xenophobic terror – whether “inspired” by the Islamic State or white supremacists – has recently increased in frequency and breadth. Within the past month alone, Flint, Portland, suburban Virginia, London, Manchester, Brussels and Paris have all witnessed acts of violence intended to maim, kill and sow division."

I applaud Khan for acknowledging that James Hodgkins, the Virginia shooter, is a terrorist, something others have been hesitant to do.
