THIS is the definition of domestic terrorism, according to the FBI. Exactly what part of this was Pretti doing when your goons executed him?

Domestic Terrorism for the FBI’s purposes is referenced in U.S. Code at 18 U.S.C. 2331(5),
and is defined as activities:
• Involving acts dangerous to human life that are a violation of the criminal laws of the United
States or of any State;
• Appearing to be intended to:
o Intimidate or coerce a civilian population;
o Influence the policy of government by intimidation or coercion; or
o Affect the conduct of a government by mass destruction, assassination or kidnapping;
and
• Occurring primarily within the territorial jurisdiction of the United States.
This is a definitional statute, not a charging statute. We talk about the threat these actors pose as
Domestic Terrorism threats, but each of the FBI's threat categories, described in further detail below,
uses the words “violent extremism” because the underlying ideology itself and the advocacy of such
beliefs is not prohibited by US law.
In using the term Domestic Terrorism, DHS looks to the Homeland Security Act definition of
terrorism, 6 U.S.C. 101(18), which is substantially similar but not identical to the title 18
definition. That provision defines terrorism as any activity that:
• Involves an act that:
o Is dangerous to human life or potentially destructive of critical infrastructure or key
resources; and
o Is a violation of the criminal laws of the United States or of any State or other
subdivision of the United States; and
• Appears to be intended:
o To intimidate or coerce a civilian population;
o To influence the policy of a government by intimidation or coercion; or
o To affect the conduct of a government by mass destruction, assassination, or
kidnapping.
