I'm not talking about assumptions.  I am saying that with terrorist events, that certain groups have tended to have a greater likelyhood of being considered terrorism.  As to the other cases, I haven't thought much about them.  You are the one getting this discussion between us into a variety of other topics that I haven't spoken of at all.     

Assumptions without zero evidence being bad has been my whole point from the start.

• When you see a BLACK KID commit a murder and rush to Twitter to scream IT'S THE VIOLENT IMMIGRANTS! - It is bad.
• When you see a WOMAN commit a murder and rush to Twitter to scream IT'S THE MENTALLY ILL TRANS - It is bad.
• When you see a ARABIAN LOOKING GUY commit a murder and rush to Twitter to scream IT'S THE SCARY MUSLIMS - It is bad.

And Twitter does nothing to prevent it, in fact, it amplifies it, as does Elon Musk.

• Elon Musk rushed to blame Scholz for the recent murders, when the fucking murderer supported the AfD!
• Twitter rushed to blame trans people for the school shooting, when she was a fucking Nazi loving, cisgender woman!
• Twitter rushed to blame immigrants for the black kid killing other children, when he was fucking born in the UK!

One of these assumptions led to mass riots across the whole of UK and people getting hurt!

My entire point has been that assuming shit WITHOUT A SINGLE FACT is BAD.

Goddamnit UK literally just had the perfect example of why this shit is bad and this is why I'm getting angry with Twitter and Elon Musk who amplifies this shit and does nothing to stop it because they WANT a race war in Europe, they want an immigrant war in Europe, Elon Musk is actively trying to push the far-right fascists in Europe and he does it by amplifying this shitty MISINFORMATION.

My country literally just had fucking idiots running around smashing their cities up and setting fire to hotels with innocent people in them all based on a FALSE ASSUMPTION and even if it was true I'd be mad at that happening but the fact is, it wasn't true, they literally trashed the cities up over an assumption, a lie, misinformation. If the kid was another white murderer they wouldn't have done shit.

But this is getting way off-topic and I'm getting annoyed because I still feel like you aren't getting my point, Lol.

I think that you are mischaracterizing what I am saying.  When i say that event XYZ was probably caused by JKL group due to my perception of their past actions, it doesn't imply any assumptions because I realize that this hasn't been proven legally yet.  

Just assigning a somewhat greater probability to something isn't assuming or giving a mental certainty to anything.
