Think Mass Shootings Are Terrorism?

Like many terrorist suicide attacks, the Las Vegas and Sutherland Springs massacres involved a heavily armed killer engaged in a carefully planned assault that would predictably end in his own death. It targeted a public place. Its victims were randomly selected. It was aimed at producing mass casualties and many were killed or wounded. It certainly was terrifying to those who came under fire and it caused nationwide fear. A new domestic terrorism law, however, is not a solution and could create unintended consequences.
