re: #211 Bagua

Intentionally shooting 43 people is always terrorism, and this was obviously premeditated. While his exact motivation, affiliation, mental state and so on has yet to be determined the act certainly goes beyond any sort of nervous breakdown.

Can you see where I might want to make a distinction between, say, what this guy did, and an organized sleeper cell? That if it was premeditated, that there’s a huge difference between it being premeditated a week out like a workplace shooting, and being premeditated months out like an organized terrorist cell.

As LVQ says, it’s already become a very important political crucible.
