We the people ask the federal government to Take or explain a position on an issue or policy:

Clearly define act of terrorism. When is it applied to a person, group, event, or circumstance. Stop the tunnel vision.

Created by V.B. on July 18, 2016

Right now the designation seems to only be applied to those outside of the US or people or groups from the US connecting with outside entities. What about the home grown US born, raised, and bred terrorist that are and have been on American soil the entire time. Based on the definition of terrorist and acts of terrorism there needs to be a bigger brush and wider canvas to include all those that truly fit into this category. Why the refusal to acknowledge what is and has been going on for hundreds of years by US citizens. Terrorism is the use of violence and intimidation in pursuit of political aims. We ask if ISIS or ISIL is labeled a terrorist group for their acts, then surely Donald Trump and some of his suppprters as well as some of the media fit the clear description of a terrorist.
