So a guy shoots up a liberal church, killing two people, because he hates liberals and nobody is talking about this terrorist attack on American soil?

1. He's the wrong color, the wrong religon, and wore the wrong clothes to be called a terrorist

And the media CAN'T call it terrorism, because that would eliminate their talk about no terrorist attacks since 9/11.

It might make them say, shouldn't we look inward to ensure we don't have another Timothy McVeigh running around?

2. Everybody agress that McVeigh was a terrorist
so they have a conundrum.
