    From the Oxford Dictionary:

    the unlawful use of violence and intimidation, especially against civilians, in the pursuit of political aims.

    This was terrorism, by definition. Unfortunately being LGBTQ in today’s world has been politicized. It was in the past, but it’s true today, too.

      Do you think that crazy bastard was pursuing political aims?
      Looked more like spontaneous action.

      I’m gay, but I don’t see rationale of conflating a hate crime with act of terrorism.
