John Allen Muhammad (the Washington sniper, black) wasn’t called a terrorist or gang member, was he? Timothy McVeigh (white) obviously** was**..

Don’t know why some ppl are tying themselves in knots over why this guy James Holmes is not being called a terrorist.. is being ‘just’ a killer/murderer somehow better?? What separates a terrorist from a ‘normal’ killer is the REASON why they commit the act..

Regardless of what the reasons were what happened in Denver is awful.. I feel so bad for the victims, esp the children, and their families..

The difference is the skin color and the religion. And yes John Allen was called a terrorist and was they were looking for an Al Qaeda link for a very long time.
