The AP can’t call the Fort Hood shooter a terrorist, in spite of there now being evidence that he attended the same mosque as the 9/11 terrorists, held anti-American views, and talked about jihad. And now we have word that he tried to contact al Qaeda. (And no, ABC News won’t call him a terrorist either.)
But here’s a terrorist for you:
The man accused in the Halloween-night shooting death of a Seattle policeman remains hospitalized, and authorities were expected to talk more Monday about why they believe the suspect is a domestic terrorist who held a grudge against law enforcement.
See, it’s safe to call Americans terrorists, because we’re not going to get all offended-ethnic on your ass. We’re going to roll our eyes, write letters to the editor, and put up blog posts ridiculing you. Nobody needs to worry about anything violent happening.
