Of course they're going to label it terrorism. The shooter isn't a white guy.
God I hate this country.
Being an American in America compels you to kill. I was just saying this last night to someone. Let me explain.
I'm American, but I've visited Britain and lived in Japan. Those aren't just different countries, they feel like different worlds. People there aren't (generally speaking) selfish jerks when you encounter them in public. In America it's different. Everyone is out only for themselves. Everyone this underlying mentality that makes them always afraid of losing out. Nobody has time to consider other people. We're always encouraged, from one source or another, to think we're right and not have any self-reflection. That's the American way. Never wrong in anything. Number one! I notice this mentality creeping into my own actions, too. Being in America is living in an heightened state of anxiety. We're told to fear people who are different so we buy the readily available guns to defend ourselves, thereby becoming the dangerous people that others fear. We've got no safety net to fall back on, so many of us haven't had an education worth anything, and even if you can get a job it's not going to pull you out of poverty. So we either have to be hyper-vigilant against any threat to what little we have, or we give up entirely and do stupid, risky, thoughtless, violent things because that's what we're left with as options.
