Who else remembers when the Catholics were "radicalized"?

the news would be covering the Co Springs story in a very different way.
Most of what I've heard so far is stuff like:
"We'll have to wait & see what his motive may have been"
"We cannot jump to the terrorist angle until we have details"
"He obviously has mental issues"
etc etc..

Some have even laid the path with comments like "he didn't even have electricity" (so he couldn't have been egged on by tv commentators/politicians)

Not sure of the validity, but supposedly the band is at a police station, but they are not sure about all of the crew
