I'm all for a fair trial and if guilty, a quick hanging.
Not in Wisconsin.

Good enough for me. A terrorist designation implies there was some goal involved.
Well, presumably we don't really know that at this point. I would say that if this was in any way connected with the non-guilty verdict of Kyle Rittenhouse then it should be described as terrorism.

Yes, if determined so, that would be appropriate.

Those people saying the killings are karma for Rittenhouse, and that the people of WI are responsible for the deaths sound oddly similar to the kind of clueless twats who used to make excuses for Provisional IRA atrocities back in the 70's and 80's.

Just out of curiosity, is it pronounced woah-keesha? Or wow-keesha? Or some other way.
Only non-witches get due process.

The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

Don't you DARE call it what it really was:
And this is CNN's homepage about 5 minutes ago.
If you look closely, you might see a story about it.
It's there, at the bottom, below stories about Keanu Reeves, movies to watch, a WWE wrestler getting attacked, and Native American chefs.
It deals with the driver's lack of emotion.

VDH: A Tale of Two Cities: Kenosha vs. Waukesha
An amoral media and Left, so far, have kept an inconvenient Waukesha “car crash” out of the mainstream news—reversing their wild sensational obsessions with Kenosha. After all, in their unhinged racialized worldview, the demonization of a 17-year-old white male, who shot three other white males, still could be squeezed for racial juice, given the larger contextual landscape of a riot over a police wounding of an African-American male.
The shooting of Jacob Blake that set off the Kenosha riots was later determined to be justified, given the armed suspect was heading toward his car, after fighting with police, who were called to the residence to protect a woman who had a restraining order against the career violent felon.
In sum, Rittenhouse had no criminal record; all four of his assailants had lengthy arrest records. Three of them were ex-felons. He had no record of the racial hatred of which he was accused.
In contrast, Brooks was an abject violent racist whom the media sought to shield. And he was a career felon, who both long ago and quite recently should have been kept behind bars so that he would not murder innocents.
How a Wisconsin ex-felon received a $1,000 bail bond and freedom to mow down innocents, after trying to run down two with his car, while another juvenile without an arrest record, with good grounds to claim self-defense, was required to post a $2 million bond (and so stayed incarcerated pending charges without running water in his cell) is a commentary on the abject implosion of the American justice system.
Rittenhouse should have never been charged; Brooks should not have been out of jail. The effort to make the former a beneficiary of white supremacy and the latter a victim of it required a level of amoral media deceit that finally was unsustainable even in this bankrupt age.
