re: labelling a group such as this a "terror group". I agree with you. There's too much danger of the label used for political purposes if it isn't very specifically about ISIS style terrorism. Turkey and Ukraine have already developed the practice of everyone who fights against the gov being labelled as a terrorist.

I wouldn't discount the possibility that the Democratic Party would label Deplorables as terrorists if they could. Why take even a small step down that slippery slope?

My point exactly.

Even though criminal gangs spread terror, nothing is gained by conflating MS-13 and ISIS.
Different beasts, different patterns, we need different ammo and strategy. No place to drop a MOAB on MS-13.
They're both bad but let's keep the language clear. No more PC or phony fairness games.
