“overused”

I simply disagree. Half of America has already forgotten Terror is a “real thing”.

That is a problem that can hardly be helped by using the word where it doesn't apply.

The apathy in response to terrorism may be due to oversaturation of the term. Calling every murderous lunatic a "terrorist" makes people worried about crazy people in their neighborhood, and makes them forget that there are people on the other side of the planet who are willing to travel to America to kill us specifically.
