You have linked to Madras, OR, USA.

They are from Madras, Tamil Nadu, India.

Rofl. Just like the shooter picked on the indians thinking they're arabs. If you're trying to prove that americans have no idea there is a world outside their borders, you're succeeding wonderfully.

Actually, it was the existence of Madras, Oregon that I was unaware of. That's why I assumed the page was about Madras, India.

To be fair, the map you linked to was entirely unhelpful, seeing how it didn't display big bald eagles and a star-spangled banner next to the Ochoco National Forest, the Warm Springs Reservations and Camp Sherman.

The difference is that he isn't very likely to get killed in Madras because of his skin color.
