But in the spirit of the root word terror, this is terrorism.
The root of terrorism is political motivation. That's the very definition of it. Without political motivation, it's a mass murder.

I don't understand why Sarah Sanders wants that job. You just sit there and get peppered with gotcha questions by liberal hacks
Because its gonna really help her career. She stands up and takes their shite and knows just how to respond in kind to expose their hipocracy subtly.

It's a mass shooting. People need to stop trying to make it something it's not. On both sides.

I don’t understand why he had 10 guns. I don’t understand the point of that unless he planned on putting so many rounds down that he was concerned about barrel failure from heat and thought he would need that many weapons to cycle through.
Nothing he did will make sense, there's going to be weird oddities like this and many others, because this dude wasn't thinking like we think.

Why is the only picture of the shooter a pic with his eyes closed? Just wondering

Miriam Webster says terror is:
1. a state of intense fear
That's what I mean at the root. I'm not saying what the govt says is an 'act' of terrorism.
No sense discussing this tedious thing any further. Back to the topic...

It seemed like it was organized and thought out pretty extensivley, which is why we are thinking rationally and logically.

However, in order to be considered an act of terrorism, there must be political motives of some sort. At this point, they don't have any idea, and there's certainly nothing yet that clearly points to a political motive. Because of that, this isn't considered a terrorist attack. TBD.
Exactly. I just finished teaching a unit on political violence. The textbook I use for the class is one of the most common. The definition the book uses is the use of violence by nonstate actors against civilians to achieve a political goal.

First Victim Identified
quote:
Melton attended the music festival with his wife, Heather Gulish Melton, who confirmed he was one of the victims, but said she was not yet ready to share his story.
"I want everyone to know what a kind hearted loving man he was but at this point I can barely breathe," she wrote to USA TODAY.
quote:
According to his Facebook page, Melton lives in Big Sandy, Tenn., and was a registered nurse at Jackson-Madison County General Hospital. The couple married in June 2016, according to the wedding website The Knot.
"We were the couple that never should have met, fallen in love or had a future together....but life is funny and we believe God brought us together as soul mates," read their wedding page. "We have shared amazing times together and nearly unbearable heartaches but through it all we have grown stronger in our love for each other and our families."

Doesn't mean we can't think logically. You think investigators are just like "frick it, no rational person would do this, nothing to figure out here"

It's terrorism. Plain and simple.
