Kind of stretching to call this "terror", don'chathink?

Rank discrimination it may be...even inhumane. But terror? Somehow I don't think it rises to the "suicide bomber in the pizza shop" level, or even the "Hellfire from a Predator" level.

Cheapening the word terror has the effect of turning down the heat on those actually comitting terrorism.
