The most likely issue here is that turban-wearing Sikhs look more like bin Laden than actual Muslims do.

I really don't think this is the case.  The shooting happened on the day there was a major Sikh cleric visiting that congregation from India.  That really suggests to me that he knew exactly what Sikhs are and had a grudge against them, not a misplaced anger at Islam.

Maybe he had an ex-girlfriend or something in the congregation?
