Now, it is possible that a white guy in a hoodie can be a muslim, but I'm at least a bit relieved that it wasn't someone who fit into the prevailing media stereotype of "a brown muslim".
Younger generations are not old enough to remember the same presumption of "Muslim terrorist" was made both about the Olympic park bombing in Atlanta and the Oklahoma city attack. Neither were Muslims.
