Racism, Terrorism and The Lone Wolf

I've updated this with some thoughts I'd like to share.





The Alex Jones Team is dead wrong:

Terrorism

The search for a universal, precise definition of terrorism has been challenging for researchers and practitioners alike. Different definitions exist across the federal, international and research communities.

Title 22 of the U.S. Code, Section 2656f(d) defines terrorism as “premeditated, politically motivated violence perpetrated against noncombatant targets by subnational groups or clandestine agents, usually intended to influence an audience.” [1]

The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) defines terrorism as “the unlawful use of force or violence against persons or property to intimidate or coerce a government, the civilian population, or any segment thereof, in furtherance of political or social objectives.”

Both definitions of terrorism share a common theme: the use of force intended to influence or instigate a course of action that furthers a political or social goal. In most cases, NIJ researchers adopt the FBI definition, which stresses methods over motivations and is generally accepted by law enforcement communities.

If we consider what the shooter said:

"I want to kill black people."


We can come to the conclusion rather easily that he was committing an act of terrorism.

Unless, of course, you consider black people to not be people at all...


I'd like to make not of something else:

Being white and having black friends does not mean you are not racist.

Being black and having white friends does not mean you are not racist.

Never calling someone the opposite of your race a racial slur does not mean you don't have preconceived notions concerning other races.

You can be black man and married to a white woman and still be a racist, and the same goes for white man marrying a black woman and so on and so forth.

I've had black and white people tell me that I 'act white', and that is racist.

"but wait, there's a clear gun control agenda in this!"

Yes, there is, and it's disgusting.
The shooter would have found a way to get a gun, that's what criminal minded people do.



Now, some people are convinced he was a mind control puppet.
There's just one problem with that take on this.
No one ever says that when black people commit crime.

We don't have to let that divide us.
We are called of God, and know what scam is:

Truth: there are racists people in the world that choose to harm those different from this selves.

Lie: we need to have our guns taken from us.
