NEW YORK (AP) — New York City police Commissioner William Bratton says the hatchet attack on four rookie officers was a terrorist act by a homegrown radical.

Bratton said Friday the suspect, Zale Thompson, was a Muslim convert who ranted online against America, but had no clear ties to international terrorism. He believes Thompson was self-radicalized.

Bratton at least says it was terrorism unlike the muslim sympathizer in the WH. Bratton surely doesn't believe the attack was not planned, the terrorist was carrying a hatchet.

So the new left wing buzzwords for an Islam Terrorists or ISIS Terrorist will be: Homegrown Radical.

Of course we will never get to see how ISIS radicalized him on line.

I wonder if he went to that idiot POS mayor, and said, look you SOB, stop tying our hands behind our backs. I would be willing to bet they have had more than one shouting match before. .

I certainly hope so—NYPD morale is quite low.
