Say Middle-Eastern then to avoid confusion. There is little if any direct evidence that they are Muslim, let alone practicing Muslim, other than their country of cultural origin.
Might they all be. Muslim? Sure. And I also didn't say you "can't" say it, I said it's not helpful, it's counterproductive, it (quite evidently) deviates the discussion away from the actual incident into "yet more Islam stuff". So the question isn't really "why can people not say that?", it's "why are people so desperate to say it" even when it's distracting and damaging to do so.
Like I said, it feels like outrage and indignation are somehow thought to be more moral or valuable than pragmatic solution-seeking.
"I don't care if it isn't helpful I am rly mad about this Muslims issue and I want the world to know just how mad!"
Why?
