Words

I can't believe I'm actually hearing people play word games with what happened in Time Square. "It's not 'terrorism' as defined by Websters or the U.S. code". What? If someone puts a bomb in a car and parks that car in an area where people could be killed, it's terrorism. I don't care if it's a radical Muslim who's doing it because he hates the U.S. and our policies or your neighbor John Smith because he thought it would be funny. Is this really where we are? They jump on the "dangerous" and "racist" bandwagon when it comes to Tea Party protesters, but just can't quite use the dirty "T" word when talking about a car bomb left in NYC. I can't help but wonder if it would be terrorism if it had be left outside a Black or Hispanic organization?
