?

Because our terrorist attack wasn't a massacre
>>72739222
This. Don't think there's been an attack on british soil since 7/7 that had more than two people die.
there wasn't a shooting
>>72739194
It wasn't a shooting, he ran over some people on a bridge and stabbed a cop

it's just banter bro
>>72739194
technically any attack in the public domain can be considered a terrorist attack, they don't have to be foreign or part of a religious sect to terrorize civilians
>>72741014
Yeah, it's more what motivates the attack. Terrorism wants to instill terror. Shootout between criminals, for example, isn't terrorist attack.

Incorrect, terrorism has a definition. It is:
A) Unsanctioned violence.
B) With political goals.
It does not need to create fear. Shooting the prez because you hate his policy is also terrorism.
>>72740837
Clearly isn't
>>72739194
5 deaths vs 3,000 deaths
>>72743101
The deadliest shooting in American History was the Virginia Tech Massacre (39) and even that was considered a massacre
>>72743222
Correction, it was 33, not 39
>>72739194
You do realize that those terms have definitions, and they are not the same, right?
>>72743260
Wasn't Orlando worst?

Oh yeah, you're right
