He was inspired by the generic store brand radical Islam rather than the name brand variety? Oh, that's OK then. https://t.co/ejbnlpHSKF

Didn't even take ISIS brainwashing to turn him. Just a bit of general propaganda. Yes, that's much more comforting. https://t.co/21DcXNq6A3

@Reuters Does it really matter who he's inspired by when there is a jihadi attack on American soil. It's not like he had a Rebel flag right?

@Reuters Islamic Terrorism pure and simple. Quit being politically correct and become journalists.

@Reuters That evil is not a "shooter" or "gunman"! The evil = Islamist! Stop spinning it away from the root of the problem = Radical Islam.

@Reuters general jihadist propaganda? Where do you people come up with these new terminologies? He was a Terrorist, pure and simple!

And don’t forget, the “general jihad propaganda” inspiration isn’t even a sure thing:
"may have been" #journalism @Reuters https://t.co/QYfFLvJCo7

Yep, and some mainstream media outlets “may have been” news organizations at one time.
