So this is terrorism but they refuse to give terrorism charges to local militias?

[–] JovialMicrobial@lemm.ee 108 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

They also don't charge people who blow up abortion clinics with terrorism either. They haven't since the 60s - 70s.

If you look it up the courts have been petitioned several times to associate abortion clinic bombings with Christian terrorism but they keep refusing to call it what it is.

After reading about that fiasco I have very little faith our government actually has a working definition of terrorism that doesn't shift at their convenience.

Was he actually Italian though? As in, speaking Italian, having an Italian passport etc.? Y'all Americans have weird definitions of nationality, just having a foreign sounding last name isn't really enough...

[–] Enoblk@lemmy.world 76 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

When someone from America says they Italian or whatever they aren't talking about nationality, it's about ancestry, where your family came from not what county you were born in

From what the manifesto found on him allegedly said, it sounds like his actions were politically motivated. And violence in pursuit of a political goal is kinda the definition of terrorism.

[–] dragonfucker@lemmy.nz 55 points 17 hours ago (6 children)

George Washington used violence to advance his political agenda of a sovereign USA. Was George a terrorist?

[–] ILikeBoobies@lemmy.ca 19 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

Yes, why would you think he wasn’t?

[–] DeadWorldWalking@lemmy.world 11 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

Because we often only phrase things as terrorism when it's "bad"

[–] yannic@lemmy.ca 11 points 13 hours ago* (last edited 13 hours ago)

Exactly. The baddies are called 'terrorists'. The term the media uses to describe good terrorists is 'rebels' and sometimes 'freedom fighters'.

4th of July is a national celebration of terrorism.

[–] SomethingBurger@jlai.lu 33 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

It's not terrorism if you win.

[–] babybus@sh.itjust.works 14 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

History is written by the victors.

[–] Agent641@lemmy.world 14 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

Then we'll just have to win.

God damn put that exchange on a t-shirt

[–] imposedsensation@lemmynsfw.com 11 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

Yes, he was a good terrorist. He wasn't captured by the enemy.

Luigi was pretty dumb wearing that creepy outfit at a McD. He was captured. Regardless of how you feel about him, being captured was a major failure.

[–] dragonfucker@lemmy.nz 11 points 15 hours ago

Yeah, Luigi fucked up so bad that he wasn't even the shooter and he still got caught /irony
