Terrorist acts have the intention of creating political/societal change through the use of violence. A rando shooting up a church/movie theatre/concert for personal reasons is not an act of terrorism.

                               

I agree with this one because it is correct. But I have a question. Let say:

1.  There is a random shooting attack.

2. The shooter is a Muslim

3. But his motives are personal

4. Will he still be labeled as terrorist?

I'm pretty sure that's what happened in that Orlando shooting. 

Dude is a conservative ISIS follower but was also frequently gay nightclubs for several years and was on gay dating websites? Yeah that doesn't really allign. 

I think he had anger/identity issues.
