A lot of people fearing they might also get "randomly" murdered because somebody shot their CEO makes for a fucking terrible judicial argument as per terror charges. Like I'm sure it'll fly but that's just a precedent for everything being terrorism now, you just gotta find enough scared suburbians 30 miles away to attest that they all feel like they're next because they saw it on the news to prove this was terrorism.

That's been the entire point drumming up fear about Terrorism since the term was coined. Anything done to disturb the status quo will always be labeled as terrorism by those in power
