Many people were very troubled by the video showing the killing of 66-year-old Mohammad Anwar, allegedly by two teenage girls, ages 13 and 15, trying to carjack him. They allegedly tasered him and then took off in the car which crashed in the process, killing Anwar.

Warning: graphic.

It was particularly troubling given the disregard for human life and one of the teens being more concerned about her phone than she seemed to be about Mr. Anwar. CNN set some people on edge by referring to the incident as an “accident.”

Many also felt great sympathy for him and his family, that he was just trying to make a living and provide for his family when he was killed.

But that apparently annoyed a Yahoo White House correspondent, Hunter Walker.

There are a lot of far right commentators sharing this horrific story and highlighting the fact the perpetrators are Black. https://t.co/O1S8opWDnV

Apparently, you’re not allowed to discuss the race of the alleged perpetrators unless they’re white. But in any event, it’s Democrats who seem constantly focused on race, who seem to make everything about race when the story is really about humanity.

But there are also more mainstream conservatives sharing this story including from outlets like the Daily Caller and GOP operatives. In some cases, they’re cooying videos taken directly from the far right explicitly racist voices including popular Gab and Telegram accounts.

Anyone who truly though Anwar’s life mattered, would not use his death to make straw man arguments in some unrelated political argument.

I’m confused. Isn’t this guy trying to make some bad political argument using Mr. Anwar’s death? Seems to me that Republicans were talking about how the accused seemed to not care about his life, how sad and tragic that was. But suddenly, it’s Republicans who are bad for being concerned? And they’re all far right?

“How can I take this unspeakably awful murder committed by teen girls and caught on video make it about how Republicans are bad?” Maybe take a break from that sick/boring/neverending/stupid game for just one story. If you’re able.

It’s always the fault of Republicans even when it isn’t about Republicans. ‘Republicans pounce.’

Walker was even mad at the Washington Examiner’s Siraj Hashmi for “stoking more far right narratives.”

If you want a perfect example of someone who has had a more mainstream platform and gladly participates in stoking more far right narratives and crowds of trolls look no further than Siraj! Hi Siraj! https://t.co/Bnj5aCXTqS

Hunter is mad that a Pakistani American… Is upset at the death of another PAKISTANI AMERICAN?

Hunter is the bigot here… Not @SirajAHashmi. https://t.co/ob3CqpGxuz

Not a good look all the way around — it’s not about Republicans or him; it’s about Mr. Anwar. Here’s the GoFundMe where you can donate.

Here is the fundraiser for the family of 66-year-old Mohammad Anwar, the Uber Eats driver who was brutally murdered by two girls who were attempting to steal his car while he was working in DC https://t.co/Po0XjbYVGU
