        There’s not just a single definition of the word, and not just a single correct one. Why don’t you give us your definition that not many people seem to agree with?

          Didn’t you read any of my other replies? Specifically the one where I mentioned the Patriot Act or would you rather I look it up for you?

            Sure why don’t you? I can’t keep track of everything going on in your world, only reliably just the specific context where we are engaging.

        Okay. So where do you read this guy has threatened to use violence to create fear?

        the calculated use of violence to create a general climate of fear in a population and thereby to bring about a particular political objective. Source

            You imply violence by saying terrorism. That’s why people are saying that it isn’t terrorism.
