They are saying that attacker has mental health issues. He may not hate Philippinos specifically, but hating people in general is apparently not terrorism.
Just copying it into here cause I’m getting tired of the comments:
"A surprise attack involving the deliberate use of violence against civilians in the hope of attaining political or religious aims. "
As far as we and the police know, there was no political or religious agenda here. Again, as far as they know, this was not a planned attack. This is fucked up and really fucking heartbreaking situation but it is not, by definition, a terrorist attack.
It’s been used as a political hammer for a long time. For example, cartels operate like business, but are qualified as terrorist organizations by the US.
Call it what it is please.
Terrorism.
Terrorism implies some kind of political motivation. They’ve already ruled that out.
how?
You’ll have to ask them.
By ignoring how car dependency and the “healthcare” system caused this.

The murderer was not the race you seem to be assuming by this post btw.
No name was mentioned in the article. The driver being cleared of “terorrism” this quickly almost always means one thing.
A quick Google search will pull up names and pictures. The dude is Asian, and I think potentially Filipino himself.
Wait so the meme is still right.
They went “Not Arab, not Black = mentally disturbed”
