So a Muslim Army officer shoots large numbers of unarmed soldiers, killing several, and it's "workplace violence." But a Muslim nutcase attacks four armed police officers, who are in uniform, and it's "terrorism."

By rights, they should call this one workplace violence, so the cop who got his head caved in can qualify for workers compensation.

Notice that it's the NYC Police Commissioner calling it terrorism...a local .gov agency.

The feds are unwilling to acknowledge Islamic terrorism. See no terrorism, hear no terrorism, speak no terrorism. Islamic terrorists in the US and elsewhere Do Not Exist.

Local and state governments and government agencies may or may not have the same point of view...especially when an Islamic whackjob attacks four of their employees and citizens and the local citizens have a lot more influence come election time.

I have to wonder what we might find out about Obama's "anti"-terror activities as President in future years.  I keep thinking that he is actively trying to support radical Muslims rather than stop them.

FIFY.

It's only "terrorism" when the feds entrap some moron and "prevent" the event from happening

Follow the (grant) money.  Invoking terrorism might well pay off better than bemoaning mere criminal activity.
