4. Ya think?

White and male and American by birth, therefore he can be called a lone wolf, mentally ill, or anything but a terrorist.

3. exactly

this was a shooting, the ft hood incident was a shooting
not a terrorist act like we know
i am so tired of the media, and conservative republicans calling everything these days 'terrorist' acts

5. "Terrorist" when it helps the RW politically, "shooter" or "gunman"

or "disgruntled fed-up citizen" when it doesn't.
