He himself said: In his letter, McVeigh said he was an agnostic but that he would "improvise, adapt and overcome", if it turned out there was an afterlife. "If I'm going to hell," he wrote, "I'm gonna have a lot of company." His body is to be cremated and his ashes scattered in a secret location. http://www.theguardian.com/world/200...1/mcveigh.usa4 So, I guess that would make him an Agnostic Terrorist. I agree with your assessment that his bombing of the Oklahoma federal building was an act of terrorism by definition.

I guess I can agree that McVeigh was a terrorist, although not in the same sense as an organization like ISIS. The loss of life is horrific and the same but once he was caught, it ended. I interpret "terrorism" as having the added component of knowing it is likely to occur again, by the same people. Not knowing how, where or when is what defines it as terrorism. |

We just never know when the next American with firearms will shoot up and kill 20 people in a school in the latest act of terrorism. |

I cannot understand the logic Harry uses to justify the atrocities of ISIS and the other fanatic Muslim groups based on the shootings that have occurred in this country by nutcases. -- Ban idiots, not guns! |

And you were raised Jewish. So what's your point? |
