    The honourable NRA collaborates with Australia’s nationalist One Nation to try and weaken gun laws.

    Oh that NRA and their silly antics.  I thought everyone in Australia was cool with the gun laws...I guess not.
    Well, there are gun nuts in every country. It’s just that most counties do a better job of managing them than the US. 
    Correct!

    Every country has idiots they need to manage.
    I’m going to go ahead and fully agree with that statement 

    Man , you and I have been agreeing a ton lately.

    Pretty sure this was prophesied as a sign of the end of days or something...Now we just need to wait for a six-dicked sea monster to slaughter us all if I remember correctly (I tend to not remember correctly)

    I got up, went to work, came home. Nothing happened involving a gun. Typical day for an American gun owner.

    A child is found hiding under a bed after father kills mother and 2 siblings over affair suspicions, police say

    What would it take to call this nut job a terrorist 
    My guess (and that's all it is) is that it probably isn't illegal to have a hit list. I didn't see where he made any threats (unless you count the letter mentioned, but that might not have been specific enough, who knows). And a bunch of guns without any real threats and just a list of names amounts to illegal gun possession charges.  But he's facing 31 years of drugs and weapons charges.
    It would probably take a specific threat (time and place planned) to amount to terrorism, not just a racist letter and some names.
    Not saying I agree with the outcome, but that's my guess on what happened.

    What would it take to call this nut job a terrorist 
    My guess (and that's all it is) is that it probably isn't illegal to have a hit list. I didn't see where he made any threats (unless you count the letter mentioned, but that might not have been specific enough, who knows). And a bunch of guns without any real threats and just a list of names amounts to illegal gun possession charges.  But he's facing 31 years of drugs and weapons charges.
    It would probably take a specific threat (time and place planned) to amount to terrorism, not just a racist letter and some names.
    Not saying I agree with the outcome, but that's my guess on what happened.
    A hit list itself is a threat by definition.

    sure, if his list was titled "people I will kill" followed by a list of names. But I believe the article just said it was a list of names (I think a spreadsheet of names actually), simply having a list of names I don't think would hold up as a hit list in court. I mean if thats all it takes I'll never carry around a list of names and addresses of people I'm mailing Christmas cards to.
    I'm not saying I agree with the outcome, but I could see how a DA could look at this and say terrorist charges wouldn't stick based on what I saw in the one article. Maybe there's more to it, and this is just my guess.
