          Lone wolf or not, the "terrorism" label will depend on ethnicity or religion. White="mentally disturbed". South Asian or Arab="terrorist"

          Translation: “We think the shooter is white, and therefore couldn’t be a terrorist” ?

          Guessing that @realDonaldTrump won't make a big thing of or even notice this one because it doesn't suit his narrative...

          Britain has a terrorist attack, America blows up on twitter, America has a mass shooting,... nothing to see here, common place. Ridiculous.
