Domestic Terrorism or Workplace Violence writ large?

Discuss.

Well since the shooter was Muslim (see below), I'm leaning more towards the terrorist side.

Obviously, nearly all domestic Muslims are not terrorists. But even if 1 in 100,000 act like terrorists, statistically that's a very big problem. For example, if just 1 in 100 Muslims identifies with terrorists, and then just 1 in 100 of that sub group decides to actually start killing people, then bam you get a domestic terrorist.

Also it appears there were two suspects. I haven't read up on all the details, but seems along the lines of a coordinated Paris/Mumbai style attack, although on a smaller scale. Reminds me also of the Boston marathon bombers.

Is it a bad thing that I'm jaded enough about these shootings that when I hear about one my first instinct is to search for the hilariously inept first line news coverage so I can laugh at it?

San Bernardino police announced tonight that the Islamic killers who slaughtered 14 people at a community social services building were wearing GoPro cameras.


So I guess part of the motivation was for the attention and blessings of their peers?

So basically the assertion is that they had a pair of these?

Does this chick get a train of 72 virgins run on her?
