I'm a Terrorist

Ok, I at least fit the description of a terrorist in Virginia's "Terrorism & Security Awareness Orientation for State Employees." I'm part of two suspected domestic terrorist demographics, "property rights activists" and "anti-government and militia movement" (I'll be an admiral in my own navy as soon as I buy a houseboat). I have numerous tools that terrorists use when they're in "research mode", including a "camera", "maps or charts", "sketch pads or notebooks", and "disguises" (if you count all my Halloween costumes). I care about many dates that terrorists use "to show solidarity with past events", including "April 19th" (first battle of the American Revolution; the "incident" at Waco, Texas; and the Oklahoma City bombing), "Independence Day", "Christmas" (I shit you not) and "September 11th".

Money quote #1:

Most antiterrorism experts now agree that there are no true root causes of terrorism. There are, however, preconditions that set the state for terrorism...such as a perceived lack of democracy, rapid modernization, and extremist ideologies, and inequality of power...

Got it? There are no root causes of terrorism, just preconditions.

Money quote #2:

Terrorism is not something new; it has been around since biblical times when the
Zealots were active against the occupying Romans in ancient Judea.

Oh, take that, you Zealots!
