See, his mistake was not killing him during a Career Day at an elementary school. If he took out kids as well, he wouldn't get a terrorism charge.
Dark humor is like food, not everyone gets it.
Thanks to fucking Patriot Act. The SS and NKVD bullshit should be repealed.
Publish this everywhere to get musk dumped on day 1
How tf can killing a single person with a handgun be classified as terrorism?
Because it's making the CEOs and politicians Terrified.
Our most sacred 21st century nobility. Guess we’ll have to cut their taxes to show our deference
They used to be terrified a lot more often when history was closer to JFK, Mussolini, Lincoln, and the French Revolution. When the leaders really thought the punishment for bad leadership was their ass, they gave a shit more.
Because the ruling class is terrified
Because they don't like him.
I mean Dylan fucking Roof shot dead 9 black people and they didn't consider it terrorism.

"They're making us CEO's afraid, terrified even, so he's clearly a terrorist. The implication that the working class could actually fight back against the systemic oppression we inflict on them? That's horrifying. We can't allow them to believe they could ever fight back. Make an example of this person."
The rich assholes or something
Crimes against the ruling class are more harshly punished than crimes against the plebs.
As long as the action terrorised a large enough group of people it's terrorism, it's just this time, the terrorised people are the rich cunts hiding in their mansions like the traitorous cowards they are.
I don't feel terrorized. Wonder who does
Ruthless CEOs and other greedy, rich scumbags, of course.
The dead guy was the terrorist.
CEO's: Second degree murder is the highest you can charge him with for killing a CEO in NY? But we want to torture him and make an example of him so the proles don't get uppity!
DA: No problem sirs, we can make that happen.
It's been curious to see the number of major media pundits doing the "Wonder how long his pretty little face will last in prison?" jokes while his fellow inmates are vocally supporting him
Really lets you know which side everyone is lining up on.
So this is terrorism but they refuse to give terrorism charges to local militias?
They also don't charge people who blow up abortion clinics with terrorism either. They haven't since the 60s - 70s.
If you look it up the courts have been petitioned several times to associate abortion clinic bombings with Christian terrorism but they keep refusing to call it what it is.
After reading about that fiasco I have very little faith our government actually has a working definition of terrorism that doesn't shift at their convenience.
Hardly shocking that the christofascist courts of America refuse to classify abortion clinic bombings as domestic terrorism.

Let’s hope the jury disagrees
They charged him with terrorism so a regular jury won't get to make that decision. It will be a federal grand jury of selected stooges, and maybe even a secret court.
A federal grand jury isn't a replacement for a regular federal trial jury. They're completely different things. A grand jury decides if there is a strong enough case to take the charges to trial, or if they should just be dismissed. When a grand jury isn't used, the trial judge makes that determination themselves. I agree that the terrorism charge will affect how the trial is conducted, but I don't know enough on that topic to comment further.

Was he actually Italian though? As in, speaking Italian, having an Italian passport etc.? Y'all Americans have weird definitions of nationality, just having a foreign sounding last name isn't really enough...
When someone from America says they Italian or whatever they aren't talking about nationality, it's about ancestry, where your family came from not what county you were born in
No no no no........it's about what kind of food your mom cooked when you were a kid.
Which makes me.......uhhhhhh........clown? I don't know. She bought a lot of McDonalds.

Is there any chance that the terrorism charge is so ridiculous that it actually strengthens Luigi's case and makes his defense better?
Yes because it specifically allows examining his motive from a political angle which allows the defense to question the character of the guy he shot, which increases the chance of nullification.
