Carson City, NV — Nevada Attorney General Aaron D. Ford issued the following statement on today’s tragic attack on the Islamic Center of San Diego:

    “Today's violent attack at the Islamic Center of San Diego is a horrifying tragedy, and Berna and I send our     prayers to every person who suffered a loss today. Terror and intimidation have no place in our country, and     those who consider their neighbors lesser because of their ethnicity, their race or their faith will never win.

    Places of prayer and worship are refuges for our spirit. They are inherently places of peace and fellowship and     must be protected from attacks like the one we have seen today. To hate your neighbor is un-American and to     harm them is inhuman. From Nevada, our hearts go to California and the communities who have suffered from     today's loss.”
