I think throwing around the term terrorist for people we disagree with is dangerous.
The people rioting are tearing apart their own community out of anger against one man (more if you count the police who didn't stop him). The actions of those men do not reflect the community or nation as a whole... Their actions are illegal and should be punished. (edit, both the officers and rioters)
Do you think calling in the military will solve anything? No, it would likely make it worse.
It would also set a precedence, and the definition of terrorist will over time be used more and more. There will come a day they define people terrorists you disagree with, and by then it will be too late.
There are other ways to deal with this, like the existing laws we have.

You think the police would stand down, or take out those right wing terrorists and racist?

Very good way to put it.
It's not only CNN we have hollywood celebrities saying they want to bail out the "protestors" and others yelling on twitter to burn down the city.
All of this about a cop who 95% of the whole country wants punished harshly for what he did - there isn't even any disagreement about it - yet people still think it is good idea to burn down the city????
Is everyone crazy?

Some of the comments seems like no one is watching the news unless you're cherry picking random clips off the internet to fit your narrative.

Libertarian doesn't mean you defend, in any way, mob rule or property violence, Gryph.
Do you think temper tantrums accomplish anything in real life, or do they just make the situation worse?

I believe I already said what they did is wrong and illegal in every way.
Me thinking our military shouldn't be deployed doesn't equate to defending assholes.

Neither does it mean you cheer for the unnecessary imposition of a police state, Burd.

Yes 95% of the country.
Ask around find anyone that thinks what he did is justified. Search you tube and twitter for people supporting the cop.
Heck, just look on this site and find anyone justifying what the cop did. You are blind if you can't see everyone thinks what he did was outrageous.
Why is he not yet arrested - that is a very good question.
My best guess the people running Minneapolis actually want a riot - that is why they are standing down the cops. We already know the AG supports Antifa, and the mayor seems fine with the rioting. Why would they want a riot, to continue racial divide which they think will keep blacks continuing to vote Democratic.
