Terrorists target a country, gangs target themselves. Problem?


Both Terrorists and Gangs target the citizens of a country, but the death-toll from gangs is higher than terrorists; especially if you include those who die from the prostitution and drug trades.

 

But based on your definition, should the government be able to assassinate Jeremiah Wright for incendiary anti-American rants?

Heard of the 1st amendment? No.

Gangs are not terrorists. They do not target a nation. They target themselves and occasionally commit crimes against citizens. 

NDAA isn't about stopping crime, it's about stopping terrorism.
