That is exactly what stupid kids do.

I was thinking about the difference between murderers and people who kill people. A distinction we need to make. Gang bangers, and soldiers for that matter, are not murderers per se, they mostly just kill people. Big difference.

Gang bangers kill hundreds every week across the nation, but they are fighting, and not really murderers. Not much difference between a gang banger who kills, or a soldier who kills for their country or god and those kids. Those kids were killing for their god.

Isn't a gang banger a terrorist using your definition? They have killed many more people than terrorists. Something like 100 to 1.

<<Koan, stupid kids don't obtain training in how an explosive device will kill and maim hundreds of people. Stupid kids don't plant a bomb near a crowd of people for the purpose of ending their life and injuring them for life. Stupid kids don't murder a college security guard, steal a car at gunpoint and shoot it out with police and the FBI until killed.
