The coldblooded killing of a revered imam and his assistant in broad daylight in Queens has shocked the very conscience of New York, which is a bastion of immigrants and a shining example of America’s rich diversity [“Search for killer,” News, Aug. 15].

In this matter, administrations at all levels should work together to make safety an integral part of minorities’ daily lives across America.
