100% the mainland gov leveraged the triads into doing this, so as to affect the protestors without appearing to do so.

What about these?

They are going to win the battle without firing a shot.

Well when you have former Foreign Ministers employed by these type of University Institutes, it’s clear that money talks.

It won’t last forever, China is building about 100 new Universities itself so its young people stop needing to go overseas.

The United Nations should invade the US with an international peace keeping force, and disarm the population.
Won't happen, of course, for several reasons.

Weird . The gunmen was a white neo nazi and reports didn't say it was a terrorist attack.  He left a manifesto on 8chan and cops didn't shoot him on sight.

He incited  terror. He is a terrorist.  Also the politicians are blaming music and video games. Anything besides their fucked up laws. Or lax background checks.

Yeah but a serial killer incites terror, as do gangs, drink drivers, religious texts/leaders use scare tactics (terror) to make believers etc. Just my personal opinion, as I feel terrorist gives them a political front when really they are just murderers trying to justify their actions.

I think you can safely call this terrorism, as it's violence to achieve a political aim.

Texas is one of those states with open carry  laws - so much for good guys with guns shooting back.

That's the definition of a terrorist. And you're right though. By calling him a terrorist (which he is), you give him the platform he desires. Which is a problem.

Hispanics: It's only a tiny minority who are causing problems, stop being racist!
Arabs: Not all Muslims! Stop being Islamophobic!
Blacks: What are you posting crime stats for? Lol, found the white supremacist.
White: Any white male who questions the approved MSM narrative and congregates on any platform outside Facebook, Twitter or reddit is a basement-dwelling far-right extremist and needs to be silenced for their hate speech otherwise they're all going to go on a racist killing spree.

There are only two intellectually honest debate tactics: (a) pointing out errors or omissions in your opponent’s facts, or (b) pointing out errors or omissions in your opponent’s logic. All other debate tactics are intellectually dishonest - John T. Reed

I agree. The word terrorism gives psychotic fucking pieces of shit loft to their evil actions. 

Defining the cocksuckers by which lying political party they support is just wrong.

I've got no problem calling it white terrorism.  If it's mass murder and there's a political motive, that's terrorism.   If there isn't a political motive, call it mass murder. If it's done by Islamic extremists, call it religious / radical Islamic terrorism, or if it's done by blacks call it black terrorism.  Let's stop dancing around the truth and call things out for what they are, life is much simpler when you tell the truth.

Good to see the world's markets are spiraling to the bottom.

Recession just around the corner, China testing it's ability to fuck with global markets in the blink of an eye.
