The shooting in NYC sounds like gang-related violence. Supposedly a drive-by shooting at a memorial for a kid that was killed a few months earlier. Everyone has been pretty explicit that it's "not linked to terrorism."
Domestic or otherwise, I think you're being a bit hyperbolic by calling all those events terrorism. Is there a violence problem, sure, a rash of terrorism, I don't think so. There's only one event with a clear link to terrorism.
I edited the OP to acknowledge my poor choice of title.
