Define "terrorism"
Reader comment on item: How Europe's Counterterrorism Laws Differ from America's

Submitted by GovtFlu (United States), Aug 4, 2008 at 21:24

Huum, "terrorism" is what again? anything that threatens the elite power structure? or maybe whatever the clowns in Government decide?

Whats the last thing our govt got right?, the war?, spending wisely?, protecting civil liberties? disaster response? no wait, protecting US soil from attack?? I've got it, our govt has been stellar at protecting us mini-people from greedy amoral corporations, yeah thats it! and illegal immigration too!!

Why on earth would any sane person trust these corporate owned DC mafia clowns to arrive at a definition of terrorism that doesn't reflect their elitist 2-party proto-fascist power hungry attitude / agenda? These people are proven incompetent.
