If San Bernardino Is Terrorism, So Was Colorado Springs

And every mass shooting.  IF you want one to be terrorism, then they all are.  It makes no sense to limit terrorist shootings only the people we don't like.  If you're gonna the Muslim murderous asshole a terrorist, then the christian mass murderer is a terrorist, too.

Even better, instead of treating mass murdering NRA-enabled exceptional American Patriots like Syed Farook and Robert Dear as terrorists, let's treat them like fucking killers.  That's what they are.  What they do are crimes.  Treat them properly and maybe we stand a chance of stopping the carnage.  Crime fighting does not involve wars against imaginary enemies.  Fighting crime is straightforward, at least when compared to the insanity of invasion, war, and occupation.  Start with getting rid of the guns.

That's not helpful to right-wing politicians and media dickheads, though.  Imaginary enemies and ludicrous existential threats are much better for those fuckers.
