Such a moron. That makes him every bit as bad as the idiots before him.

London really is a mess at the moment.
Will be interesting in a way to see how this is reported on in comparison to others given the different nature of the people involved.

Terrorism by definition is carrying out an action designed to incite terror.

Just because Muslims are the target instead of the perpetrators doesn't change that.
So what's the definition of a hate crime then?

What terrorist organisation is this chap doing it in the name of if we assume he is some random crazy white bloke?

Hate crimes don't have to be murder. Hate crimes can be vandalising a mosque, or a shop front, etc.

Terrorism doesn't have to be perpetrated by an organisation FFS, but I wouldn't be surprised if he's from that English Defence League or whatever it's called.

By your definition the haka is considered terrorism. You're oversimplifying it. Terrorism is politically motivated. This was a hate crime.
