This I agree with.

The article does not misrepresent this.
The issue being raised is about how they were tried/convicted/sentenced.
The part you quoted shows this.

I'm genuinely interested in what "terrorism" means to you.
- pasta67 3mo agoTerrorism comes from word terror - it is use of violence to impose terrorist goals. Usually political. The fact that they have chosen as a target police is just return to classical terrorism that existed 100+ years ago. Targeting innocents by taking hostages, 911 or blowing up cooker are quite recent developments for terrorist activities. What was your definition for terrorism?
- bArray 3mo agoMy view is still relatively classical, significant unsanctioned violence used for political means. I would also be interested to see how other people are now defining this.
