Terrorism isn't a synonym for mass murder specifically when the shooter is white. When the shooter is a minority it is too often considered terrorism without question. It takes Trump days to tweet about a White mass shooter. Seconds to tweet about a minority mass murderer calls it terrorism. The media is just as guilty so it's not just Trump. You don't hear minorities getting called lone wolfs, last souls, getting the mentally ill excuse etc. But since folks acts like they don't know this happens, I'll be sure to point it out from here on out, and I'll leave it like that.

Lets just say you can always tell the race of the shooter by the reaction of the media and Trump. Actually you can tell from the moment they say they are in custody. Minority shooters are rarely if ever taken alive. It shouldn't' be like this but it's accepted in American society.
