Today's shooting in America thread

When the lunatic shot up an abortion clinic, it was terrorism. Plain and simple. But he was white so he was described as having mental issues.

He’s a terrorist by the simple definition of the word.

I do remember people saying so at the time too.

Maybe not everyone but the reason for that is people are thick.
 
If you’re able to read past the first few sentences it gives you *one* of many many definitions on that page:

  • It is the use of violence or threat of violence in the pursuit of political, religious, ideological or social objectives.

It's quite simple really.
The manufacture and supply of weapons keeps people employed.
The politics of fear encouragespeople to buy the weapons.
The children and others are expendable collateral damage.
That's pretty much it. They need to start shooting up the schools where the arms dealers/NRA lobbyists/politicians children go.
 
I think a pretty strong arguement could be made for the perpetrator of any terrorist act having mental issues whatever their race/creed/belief/reasons.
That really doesn't detract from what SWP's back said at all. You could spin it further and say that any criminal does.
 
Christ. Just read in the Washington Post that more children have been shot dead in 2018 than military personnel.
