The FBI definition of terrorism doesn't require it to be a group activity.
- jaxn 10y agoIn-group is a sociology term. He is saying it is bigger/different from whether or not the individual is white, but whether they are a member of the in-group.
- k-mcgrady 10y agoI don't think the parent means a group of people committing a crime - they mean 'in group' as in US citizen/not the enemy.
- creshal 10y agoThat still doesn't make sense. Domestic terrorism is a thing and has been for decades.
- jlebrech 10y agoit also have to be politically motivated too, but conducted by someone alienated by the populace (i.e war doesn't count) and white lunatic doesn't count as a terrorist, but dylan roof or eliot rogers does.
- jdeee 10y agoI think you may have misunderstood the comment you are commenting on. I believe they were saying that members of the socially dominate group who perform crimes are seen as outliers while members of minority groups are seen as reflecting the values of the group.
