I could be wrong here, but isn't everything in America only a few blocks away? I mean, they're probably only a few blocks away from a church, mosque, temple, subway, mcdonals, school, etc etc
But the things you listed aren't buzzwords for MSNBC at the moment. They had their fingers crossed that it was white guys who did this.

No doubt. MSNBC seems to be almost as bad as fox news, just on the other side.

The narrative it does fit is one of "homegrown terrorists", if that's what they are, so I'm guessing they'll be rolling on that pretty heavily.

The husband grew up in the states in a "secular home" but got devoutly religious in the past few years. This info comes from the guy's father.
It is worrisome that even a guy who grew up here could go all nutty and Islamic along with his old lady.

We've had plenty of home grown nutties here. Typically, in my unsubstantiated experience, it's the ones that convert to their religion of choice (freely, not by marriage) that are even nuttier.

The difference in the reactions by some people on this board between the last two shootings is interesting.

The two shootings are quite different, to be fair.

One mental guy who was a drifter vs. A couple who worked in tandem after appearing to be functioning members of society.

Or, depending on your spin, a mentally disturbed homegrown terrorist bent on furthering an ideology vs a couple who worked in tandem after appearing to be functioning members of society.

In other news, we just voted to bomb Syria. Big decision, but David Cameron was telling his party's MPs to do as they're told, not walk around with "terrorist sympathisers" - people who don't immediately jump on the "BOMB THE SHIT OUT OF EVERYTHING" band wagon are apparently "terrorist sympathisers." He got crucified for it, but he doesn't care because he's already said he won't run for re-election so his popularity means shit all.

Also, it's possible that this is actually workplace violence...I'm sure that'll go down well!
Anyway, when you apply the definition of terrorism, does this fit? As in, was the intention of the people to terrorise other public health workers? Or just to go after his colleagues? Was what happened because of an ideology, or because of the specific people involved?
That's why I'm reserving judgement until more information comes out.
Body armor. Arsenal. Ied factory in house. People who didn't work there were involved. Yeah it was workplace violence.Also, it's possible that this is actually workplace violence...I'm sure that'll go down well!

Just applying some logic routinely used on this board:
If they didn't have that SUV it would have been harder for them to transport their "assault gear" and to actually travel to the site.

All the climate change they've experienced in their lifetimes made them do it.

You're a smart guy, don't go down that tired route.

A refresher:
"Yes a knife can kill, but it's easier to kill more with a gun."

As soon as I heard there was three I knew it was muslims. All the democeans wasted no time in calling for gun control. So let me get this straight...you want to take our guns AND you want us to allow tons of muslim "refugees" into the country? Yeah sounds like a plan.

Spot on. Liberal logic 101.
As usual there are liberals who will blame the NRA and call for gun control as soon as something like this happens which goes along with their thinking about not letting a crisis go to waste...use the crisis to advocate for their agenda. They can't seem to grasp a simple concept that criminals and those bent on doing evil deeds don't care about new gun laws or signs on doors that read "gun free zones". They are meaningless to them as these laws only affect those who obey laws in the first place and these people who obey laws are not the problem.

Then you should have no trouble understanding the logic structure.
"I can carry assault gear, and walk to the site, but it's easier to transport it and myself in a SUV."
Can we agree the SUV, like the gun(s) isn't/aren't the problem
We can agree the SUV isn't the problem, for sure.
I'm going to argue that the "assault gear" is the problem though.
