The U.K. prime minister criticized Trump for calling this a terrorist attack because he didn't wait the obligatory period before stating something well all immediately knew.
He waited with Charlottesville. I don't know if he ever even used the T word.
Because it wasn't. An idiot running over people in a rage after his group starts getting attacked isn't even in the same realm as a premeditated bombing that was intended to kill innocent civilians.
White supremacist runs over peaceful counterprotesters at a violent Nazi rally sounds like terrorism. I'm sorry you think terrorism is only brown people planting bombs. And Antifa, I'm sure. But let's spin our fucking heads off any time a white right-winger commits deadly political violence.
"Peaceful"
You're not even trying anymore.
None of the videos show violence among that group of people. You're doing that thing where we pretend the entire counterprotest was Antifa. Also, he killed a woman and seriously injured others. "But they messed up our protest" is not a justification. There is no justification. Remember when you said punching a Nazi makes you worse than a Nazi? Running over people with your car, and killing one, makes you worse than either
I'm sure if someone deliberately ran over counterprotesters (a go-to terrorist attack) at an ISIS rally, you'd be singing the "random idiot who got upset and overreacted and had no political motivation" tune. Yup. Totally.
Clearly there's a contextual difference between escalation at a protest and an unsolicited bombing. Or does that make me calloused or pushing an agenda?
