... a terrorist organization?
Wikipedia has a handful of scholarly or semi-scholarly definitions of
terrorism. One of these states that a terrorist organization:
is ineluctably political in aims and motives
is violent or, equally important, threatens violence (uh, like "cold,
dead hands?")
is designed to have far-reaching psychological repercussions beyond the
immediate victim or target
is conducted by an organization with an identifiable chain of command or
conspiratorial cell structure (whose members wear no uniform or
identifying insignia) and perpetrated by a subnational group or
non-state entity.
nope.
Sounds like the NRA to me.
maybe so, but you could say the same about any organization, Harry.
And that includes most Corporations as well as Unions.
Well, we shall see what happens. The only bright spots the last few days
have been the insane comments by the lunatic from the Gun Owners of
America and, of course, that loon, Mike Huckabee.
Well, Huck's statement o Facebook has gotten his thousands of 'likes'
hundreds of 'shares' and less than 1500 comments - mostly seething.
But speaking of loons. Take the article for what one will, but I'm
sure the tweets are real-
