Nope. But the blm/antifa shit that's been ongoing in Portland and Seattle for about the last year or so certainly qualifies.

Painted words on a barrier aren't an insurrection. But actions taken to burn, loot, murder, and assault certainly are.

That at least fits the definition of terrorism to a T.


Terrorism is defined in the Code of Federal Regulations as “the unlawful use of force and violence against persons or property to intimidate or coerce a government, the civilian population, or any segment thereof, in furtherance of political or social objectives”
