    When everything becomes (blank), then nothing is (blank).
    Insert the word of your choice:
    1. terrorism
    2. racist
    3. sexist
    4. bigotry

    I think it is a stretch to call it a political act.

    Exactly. This wasn't an individual trying to inflict fear in people just out living their life. He wasn't trying to use the tactics of terror to cause people to alter their lifestyle.

    He committed an illegal act of violence in response to other acts of civil disobedience / protest.

    It wasn't terrorism. He should be held accountable in the manner as any other murderer.

    Please give the partisan BS a rest. This was the fault of the driver of the car. You can't blame anyone else.

    It was borderline terrorism. No need to sugarcoat it. The ban argument doesn't really apply though, because no one ever really spoke of kicking out citizens of any race or religion, rather, it was about preventing immigrants from higher risk areas from coming over. The parallel isn't there.

    Home grown terrorism from this alt-right band of despicables is a bigger danger than ISIS.

    What are the police calling it, Bo? What is the DoJ calling it, Bo? Just because you want to spin this one way is no reason to insult another.

    Holy $#@!...the apologies for this horrible act of obvious terrorism here are disgusting.

    Essentially some people here are saying they had it coming and that it's just a simple hit and run. Yeah, white supremacist runs down a group of counter protestors...just an accident.

    Despicable.
