Austin Bombing Suspect Killed!

[Glocktogo]

By definition, no, unless they find evidence to prove he was promoting an agenda...

a person who uses unlawful violence and intimidation, especially against civilians, in the pursuit of political aims.

Word is he recorded a 26 minute manifesto. If so, the odds he gets classified as a domestic terrorist go up significantly.

What if he was?

Then they will find a way to spin it in order to make it a gun issue. SOP.

He like many killers before him are nut jobs.

That's my point. WAPO was searching hard to make sure it was somebody with conservative leanings. Why else would they bring it up?

So far, the recording is nothing but his description of how he made each bomb. LEO said it didn't contain anything racial or terrorist related.

So if they’re brown and could maybe be tied to the Middle East, the media is criticized for not shouting “Muslim terrorist” from the rooftops....but if they’re white and could maybe be a conservative we expect the media to hold off until “we know for sure”?

I’m confused on what the standards is. What’s the guiding principle at play?

Well that's not much of a "manifesto" then!
