“Lone Offender”?

Was the Wolf Community offended by the constant denigrations?

“Lone Offender”?


https://csesjournal.columbiasouthern.edu/25-years-of-lone-offenders-in-america/

Lone offenders are defined by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) as one who inflicts fear upon a targeted group or the general public, independent of any direction from a terrorist group or organization (USDOJ, 2019). Lone offender attacks can be referred to as idiosyncratic (Joosse, 2017) and are delineated into four dimensions: idiosyncratic ideology, idiosyncratic motives, idiosyncratic tactics, and idiosyncratic strategic thinking (Norris, 2020), although this article is not to argue or separate attackers into any of the four dimensions. These offenders are commonly referred to as “lone wolf” terrorists by the mainstream media in the aftermath of the United States’ attacks on September 11, 2001 (9/11). Typically, the lone offender is classified as such because they commit acts of violence alone (some cases allow the inclusion of a pair), separate from any group or outside of the group’s direct commands.


To state that these are lone wolves is to IGNORE THE EVIDENCE OF THE GROUP BEHIND THEM.
