Actually, terrorism doesn't have a very specific definition at all. other than that you missed the obvious joke

I cant mate, I'm not trying to suggest it doesn't matter/ isn't completely disgusting. I'm just curious why people over here seem to care about what happens in America so muchTell me where else in the western world there a regular massacres in educational establishments
From my perspective, I can understand things like industrial accidents in say China where they are trying to develop safe practice, I can understand armed robbery in South Africa where someone has a handgun, but I find it hard to accept someone walking into a school with a scoped automatic weapon. I just can't understand the reluctance to address an issue that causes so many deaths.I cant mate, I'm not trying to suggest it doesn't matter/ isn't completely disgusting.

It's quite simple really.From my perspective, I can understand things like industrial accidents in say China where they are trying to develop safe practice, I can understand armed robbery in South Africa where someone has a handgun, but I find it hard to accept someone walking into a school with a scoped automatic weapon. I just can't understand the reluctance to address an issue that causes so many deaths.
That's a good point, it makes no sense why they've not sorted it out by now. It just makes me wonder sometimes when, for example, all those kids got kidnapped from school in Nigeria it was kind of like a passing news story. But whenever it happens in America theres outrage and we hear about it for days. Maybe it's because were both "western" countries I suppose? I'm not sure why that would matter thoughFrom my perspective, I can understand things like industrial accidents in say China where they are trying to develop safe practice, I can understand armed robbery in South Africa where someone has a handgun, but I find it hard to accept someone walking into a school with a scoped automatic weapon.

I don’t agree. Anything less than 15 deaths barely makes the news these days in this country.That's a good point, it makes no sense why they've not sorted it out by now.

The whole 'I expected better of you' thing I guess. Probably the UK's number one excuse for divorce too.I'm not sure why that would matter though
okay then, what is this clear definition of terrorism, seeming as apparently no one else can agree on it?Yes it does
No I didn’t miss the joke

Yeah, I don't see why one should be given more coverage/ attract more outrage than the other. Maybe like another poster said, it's because we expect more from America, but at this point I'm not sure we do/ shouldDo you really need to wonder why that happened?
