The FBI is treating the case as “an act of targeted violence,”

Not an act of terrorism, because Trump supporters could never be terrorists with the current head of the FBI.

gotta love doublespeak. like how when the news reports on Gaza, they reference Israeli families and Palestinians

Was the shooting politically motivated?

The Catholic shooting had the shooter writing tons of political messaging on weapons and such. That's why it was both "targeted violence" and "terrorism".

Seems the Mormon shooter just didn't like Mormons, in general or some specific ones.

That requirement never bothers them when it suits their narrative.

"Terrorist" literally means "violence the state doesn't like".
