  Yes, why would you think he wasn’t?

    Because we often only phrase things as terrorism when it’s “bad”

      Exactly. The baddies are called ‘terrorists’. The term the media uses to describe good terrorists is ‘rebels’.

  Yes, he was a good terrorist. He wasn’t captured by the enemy.

  Luigi was pretty dumb wearing that creepy outfit at a McD. He was captured. Regardless of how you feel about him, being captured was a major failure.

  If he used violence against noncombatants.

  Hiroshima and Nagasaki were terror attacks though.

    Oh, well then Muad’dib isn’t a terrorist because he only killed a mass murderer. Military brass are considered combatants, and Brian ordered thousands to their deaths.

      The US generally holds that only foreign individuals and organisations can be terrorists. So if Luigi can be charged with terrorism, so can the KKK.
