Do you think that consistently equating graffiti attacks with attacks causing multiple fatalities might undermine its ability to accurately capture the terrorism problem?

No.

All terrorism is a problem.

I've told you this before.

Not all terrorism is the same.

Correct.

Did somebody say it was, dear?

As I said - you are wilfully stupid.
You pretend that you can ignore the substance of my post. That just confirms that you are knowingly and wilfuly stupid.
Why do you always rush to play the stupid, ignorant, irritating clown part in every encounter?
You seem compulsive in this regard.

You didn't answer my question.

I'm taking that as a 'no'.

Yes?

I didn't realise you had a question. You seem to be saying everything and the opposite of everything, all at the same time.

It's impossible to know what you ARE saying.

FD, are you a racist?

A simple yes or no will suffice.

Ooooh, the trump (!) card.

Racist. This is the most convenient bludgeon to shut up anyone who notices that vultures are different and cultures are pretty well overlapping with countries and races.

The more Africans and other brown people you have in a country the worse the country is. More whites, it's a better place. It works on every indicator. Non-white people simply do not improve a white country. Whites do improve a non-white country. It's just all too plain to see.

I don't think it's a coincidence. Do you?

Oh, no. Wanting to ban blacks isn't racist. Sub-human negroids aren't a race.

What do you think, FD?

Show me a black country that has a queue of white people trying to get into.

I don't know, Frank - Mauritius? Fiji? The Cayman Islands?

Compared to the movement in the other direction?????

You don't believe your own lame-o agit-prop, do you?

I don't know, Frank.

South Africa? Rhodesia? The Belgian Congo?

This is what Greg is saying, and it is his final word on the matter, except to point out that he is being entirely consistent with himself.

Is an attack that causes death worse than a graffiti attack, or an incinerated car? Absolutely.

Why do you ask, anyway?

No.

All terrorism is a problem.

I've told you this before.

Equating a terrorist event that includes death as equal a problem as one that involves spray painted slogan on a wall is relativist apologism taken to an idiotic extreme.

The FBI statistic is compiled to correspond with their definition of terrorist, it also needs updating. It does not in any way speak to weightings. Greg likes it bcause he can point at it and with his considerable reserves of stamina point out repeatedly that Islamic inspired terrorism is a minority.

Greg cites the statistics only to diminish and mitigate from the deadly problem of Islamic inspired atrocities.

That is the entirety of his point. It is apologism and an attempt at deflection.

Luckily the FBI is not as binary as greggs thinking and they allocate more funding and resources to defeating and denying Islamic inspired terrorism because they understand a difference in severity between a graffiti and death.

Who's pretending otherwise?

FD asked for an example of non-Muslim terrorism.

I provided him with many examples.

Which part don't you understand?

You look quite the fool now.

It is inherent in your diminishing of the severity of Islamic inspired atrocities to graffiti in your bald statement that "all terrorism is a problem", implying the problem is likewise equal, or even that Islamic causes being lesser because in a simplistic count the number is lessor.

With no regard to weightings it implies a relativism.

I am not sure if you are truely limited in your thinking or a rabid apologist. Or most probably both.
