Not been seeing much about the mardi gras attack

I wonder why?

Because only right-wingers are reporting it as anything but an accident involving a drunk driver. And it's getting plenty of coverage.

It's interesting that people aren't posting about it. There where loads about other terrorist attacks.

Really? It was a drunk guy in New Orleans at Mardi Gras. That's it. Terrible as it was, it's not a terrorist attack

Terrorism is "the unlawful use of violence and intimidation against civilians in the pursuit of political aims." What's the political aim?

What was the political aim of the Berlin attack.

Drunk driver ran into a group of people in N.L. Right wing nuts (though, oddly, not Trump) are trying to play it up as a terrorist attack.

Reasons for calling it an attack? Was the driver not American?

Driver is American. No one's calling it an attack except right-wingers. It's being reported as a drunk driving accident by mainstream media.

Yeah. If this was a terrorist attack, Trump would be having a meltdown on Twitter.
