Treat him like a terrorist. These people need to be examples.
Honestly, he sounds more like a drunk trying to flee a hit and run.
I don't think terrorism was his aim here. I haven't seen any mention of motive, so I'm assuming mental illness.
You know, I work with a LOT of extremely mentally ill patients, and the vast majority of them manage not to commit any terrorist actions.
You know why? Because they're not fucking terrorists.
Mental illness doesn't inherently make one violent and it doesn't instantly render you completely incapable of self control. Any mental illness that might be present is not an excuse for doing terrorist things.
So what was this guy's political or ideological goal, then?
Perhaps he's an idiot terrorist? They're actually quite common.
Here in the US, we have them their own political party. It's the Republicans in case it wasn't obvious.
You're being downvoted, but it really did seem like it was some sort of domestic issue to me. Maybe someone who works there was banging his old lady, etc.
