The typical bully doesn't murder 3 people over trivial matters.
But nice try. |

I don't recall anyone saying he was a "typical" bully.
Does him being atypical make him a terrorist? |

A murderer can be a bully as well, I don't see how they're mutually exclusive in the slightest. And besides, that's irrelevant to categorizing the behavior that preceded the murders that the neighbors described, which you referenced to as being the evidence of him being a terrorist. |

Check this out, Pasty. Just navigate from #17 back. This site is bursting with animated gifs, but some of these are chuckleworthy. We haven't even seen a US rapper with a gilded out SUV -or- a redneck with a horse motorcycle yet. How the HELL is the US The Great Satan when they got that stuff goin on right around the corner?! C'mon, jihadis! Seriously, Mullahs?!

Hicks can be labeled a bully, a terrorist or a racist who committed a hate crime.
How do you squeeze the toothpaste tube, top middle or bottom?

Detailed, except they didn't mention the police's early and premature parking dispute statement. Worth reading.
http://www.nytimes.com/2015/03/04/us/chapel-hill-muslim-student-shootings-north-carolina.html
| Quote: | A motive for the shooting may never be known. But interviews with more than a dozen of the victims’ friends and family members, lawyers, police officers and others, make two central points: before the shootings, the students took concerted steps to appease a menacing neighbor, and none were parked that day in a way that would have set off an incident involving their cars.
If those accounts do not prove what kind of malice was in Mr. Hicks’s heart, the details that emerge indicate that whatever happened almost certainly was not a simple dispute over parking. |
| Quote: | By mid-January, friends were becoming convinced that Mr. Hicks was obsessing over the couple, particularly Ms. Abu-Salha. They suspected it had to do with the way she dressed. “If you look at Deah, he looks like your average white guy,” said Nida Allam, a close friend. “But Yusor wears the head scarf. And so does Razan.”
To prevent further problems, Mr. Barakat printed out a copy of the parking map and distributed it to family and friends. He highlighted his assigned space and all the unassigned spots in the lot where they could safely park. |
And:
| Quote: | | First, though, came the honeymoon — Los Angeles for a Lakers’ game, then the beach in Mazatlán, Mexico. |
So sad, seemed like beautiful people. |
