    Why didn't he call it a domestic terrorist attack. Why is this just a terrible shooting?

    I am trying to figure out what makes a shooting a terrorist attack and what makes it a terrible shooting.

    Can someone help me with this.

    Terrorist shootings are in accordance with the Constitution, whereas killing relatives is just a crime.

    Words have definitions.. this has been explained to you.. Look up Terrorist and Terrorism. Pick a dictionary..

    People have tried to teach you for years and you refuse or just attack people so again.. Dictionary.

    Terrorist: someone the regime dislikes.

    It is a bit like your worship of Wikipedia, kiddo. Does your God write dictionaries? Grow up.

    I prefer Webster
    Here since you have never heard of it..
    https://www.merriam-webster.com/

    I'm Agnostic btw so nice attempt at flamebait.. You can use the above link to see what Agnostic means.
    While you are there look up Terrorist and Terrorism perhaps you can explain it afterwards to the OP.

    Well, it's nice you define yourself in such archaic terms to fit in. I'd like you to begin to understand that dictionaries merely reflect usage, and those who want to get on play safe in creating them.

    Why couldn’t this thread be about violence against the police?

    Isn't terrorism about the use of violence and in this case that violence was aimed at the police. Which would make this thread about violence against the police.

    That would lead to thoughts of Anti-Fa or BLM and that would quickly decay to claims of racism and back and forth partisan **** slinging but then again that is the goal of the OP.

    Hmmm, I didn't think of that but since you mentioned it. Now had this been a Muslim or someone black there would be 3 or 4 threads on this attack. Why the silence from those who claim they love LE so much, do these officers lives not matter.

    Quote someone here who said their lives don't matter.

    When you make things up you will be called on it.

    It was a terrible shooting. If he called it anything else you’d find a reason not to like it.

    Had it been a muslim or black guy (which is usually the case), you wouldn't even bother to start a thread on this incident.

    And you KNOW it.
