Well you see, the law doesn't apply to some people. Hope this helps.

Staying home when you know a rapist has a chance is still making a choice.

I launch 20 rockets at a military base

Which military base did the pagers go off in? This is more like dropping bombs on a school or hospital because you think there are some military personnel inside. Oh wait, they do that too. I can't believe Israel managed to get a bunch of idiots to defend IED's.

Well let's see, the FBI calls international terrorism "Violent, criminal acts committed by individuals and/or groups who are inspired by, or associated with, designated foreign terrorist organizations or nations (state-sponsored)." And I'd argue the pagers were state-sponsored, violent, and to my knowledge criminal since killing civilians is typically viewed as criminal.

But I really like how Wikipedia words it:

the use of violence against non-combatants to achieve political or ideological aims. The term is used in this regard primarily to refer to intentional violence during peacetime or in the context of war against non-combatants (mostly civilians and neutral military personnel). There are various different definitions of terrorism, with no universal agreement about it. Different definitions of terrorism emphasize its randomness, its aim to instill fear, and its broader impact beyond its immediate victims.

Do I really need to spell out for you how using an IED to kill whoever happens to be near it when the detonator is pressed fits this definition? If so I'd like to see why you think Oct 7th was a terrorist attack.

Are those the only requirements you think make something an act of terror?

Well that's the article my boss used to "prove" to me that trump wasn't associated with it. It'd be nice if honest reporting wasn't immediately cast out as being leftist.

Looks like her family didn't think it was her choice so I'ma take that at face value.

Democrats don't even pretend to care about regular folk

That's literally the only thing they do.

I've seen it already too. Was playing overwatch and the enemy tank was talking shit to our tank and he responded with "I'm glad trump won so someone will rape mercy." Was quite jarring tbh

From the article "The lyric is about a man who is obsessed with a girl that is seeing another man… and the thoughts that go through his head, imagining what they’re doing behind closed doors…" I guess I was wrong, it's envy not jealousy.

It's not. It's about a guy who can't beat jealousy and believes he's being cheated on "except it's all in [his] head"
