If one defines homegrown terrorism as the “use, planned use, or threatened use of force or violence by a group or individual born, raised, or based and operating primarily within the United States or any possession of the United States to intimidate or coerce the United States government, the civilian population of the United States, or any segment thereof, in furtherance of political or social objectives.”, does the Tea Party fit this criteria yet? The actions of Jerad Miller in Las Vegas fit the above description and should be claimed as a terrorist action.
