It's interesting to examine this from different perspectives. I'll examine it from yet another I wonder if the victims of Vegas felt terror.
-
I wonder if Philando Castile felt terror when he faced his final moment. I don't think that terrorism can be defined as one type of incident
-
There is no difference in the terror felt or described by victims of one tragic event to the next. The definition should be broadened.-ONE
-
What about the church killings and Charlotte all acts of terror
-
Yes, you're right they're all a form of terrorism called "Domestic Terrorism" they just don't want to define it properly as what it is. -ONE

The part where it wasn't. The part where people died from a deranged shooter. The part where news isn't fake just because you don't like it.

It’s simple, mass shooting causes terror on victims & survivors. Then in this context, how do you call a person who causes terror on people?

By any criteria they're all terrorist acts but the line between politically orchestrated/motivated & random violence is increasingly blurred

Vegas was done by an American therefore just a shoot out, NYC done by Muslim Uzbek then it’s terrorism. Both cases are terrorist attacks.
