Why is it a terrorist attack?

Why is it a terrorist attack?

What do you call it when numerous people shot and multiple unexploded devices (although apparently only smoke bombs)?

I changed it to ‘possible’. Happy now?

Well let’s be honest, Klammy….with the anointing of parents disgruntled with their school boards as “terrorists”, that bar has been set pretty fucking low.

Depends.

If it's a dorky white kid: mental health issue
If it's a brown guy with a funny name: terrorist

And if it’s a concerned parent, DEFINITELY a terrorist.

This sounds mostly peaceful to me.

No way it was a white guy- not enough people shot.
Not bown muslin either I bet- not enough people shot

What happened to that terrorist attack in Sacramento last week? That story sure died fast.

Committed by a multiple time criminal who, despite that, was let out of prison. We can't have that kind of news let loose on the population. I mean what if they might start seeing liberals for what they really are. Might be bad at the polls.

Wasn't that just the one guy they arrested? But there were at least several other shooters? Sadly, that's like a lot of shootings in cities these days, they go unsolved because nothing was caught on camera and no one's talking even if they did see anything. They may catch this guy in NYC because it was so high profile and there's bound to be some video surveillance somewhere. If he did the same thing but on a street corner in a poor neighborhood maybe he's never caught and, like the Sacramento thing, it just fades from the headlines.

Well 2 things are apparent about the shooter:
-He was Stevie Wonder with a handgun.
-He didn’t like whitey.

That and the two people who did this didn't fit the skin tone that the "anti-gun" narrative needs. Also the shooting being gang related doesn't fit the narrative either.

Certainly a concern, but what would you have the FBI do, be more of a Pre-Cog law enforcement (ala Minority Report) and just pre-emptively arrest people on what they could eventually do? Heck, the feds just lost a big case recently with the Michigan governor kidnap case because the FBI jumped the gun (and may have prodded these guys along) and they hadn't really done anything criminal yet. I agree that we should keep a close eye on the crazies who post that they're crazy, but there are more crazies out there than there are law enforcement to watch them.

It's obvious the FBI wants to do nothing except pursue whatever its agenda is. From what I've read, "black extremists/black nationalists" isn't even a thing for them to track anymore, hence why they stopped keeping tabs on this guy. Also read that the gun he used was via a legal purchase. One would think the FBI would be capable of putting 2 and 2 together.
