  1. And how does knowing what political philosophy (if any) the suspect may have followed make William Evans any more or less deceased?

  2. ​ @gregschneider6883  As far as I'm concerned, the only relevant facts at this point are that someone ran into a couple of Capitol police officers, killing one, then ran into a barricade in front of the Capitol building. The suspect apparently got out of his car with a knife, refused to heed the directions of law enforcement, and was shot and killed himself. What happened during that time did the media not report?

  4. Definitions of terrorism according to the FBI: "International terrorism: Violent, criminal acts committed by individuals and/or groups who are inspired by, or associated with, designated foreign terrorist organizations or nations (state-sponsored). Domestic terrorism: Violent, criminal acts committed by individuals and/or groups to further ideological goals stemming from domestic influences, such as those of a political, religious, social, racial, or environmental nature." https://www.fbi.gov/investigate/terrorism If it's determined that the suspect's motive didn't fit either of the above definitions, then the attack won't be considered terror related.

  5. The suspect was wielding a gun when he was shot.
