Coming to terms with terrorism
Current definition of terrorism: An act of mass killing from individuals who belong to a religion different from those who are killed.
If the killers and the killed belong to the same religion, then it is everyday violence. Whether the victims of gun violence experience terror or not before they die is determined by the religion of the killers, citizenship of the killers, or both.
