  From what I see on social media, the events at Portland is a bit of protest and a bit of terrorism (if defined as political violence, which is a legal definition), so if there are laws on the books (whether or not we agree with those laws), they would be applicable to the violent ones. There was a federal courthouse building which was under attack for several days - I find the idea a bit racist that if there are Saudis or Pakistanis attacking the building, then it's terrorism, but if it's white people from Portland then it's not terrorism.

  The subject of the investigation was carrying a pipe bomb to a political rally. I'm not sure it doesn't fit the definition of terrorist.
