The American Terrorist

Briefing: This research identifies the attributes of anAmerican terrorist by studying the patterns within 50 demographicvariablesandexploring theircorrelationwith the motivation to commit crimes related to terrorism. We believe that such an understanding willhelp to halt the recruitment of American citizens by instructing concernedparents,coaches,teachers,and family members how to quicklyidentify a person that issusceptible to radicalization and how to intervene. Studiesconducted 20 years ago have identified some markers by examininginternational terrorists: single, male, early 20’s, universityeducation, and from an affluent middle or upper-classfamily (Russell, 1977; Jenkins, 1980, Dingley, 1997). This study confirms the previousfindings andexpands upon them by examining 519 635U.S. citizensconvicted of crimes related to terrorism. Additional characteristicsscrutinized include the location of residence, crime andimprisonment, religion, organizational alliances, race, heritageand path to citizenship,field of studyand occupation,social status, military experience, mental health,marriageand family,conviction, punishment,and target. We endeavor to continue identifying the common traits of terrorists and the socialcircumstances that render a person susceptible to radicalization andprime them to commitacts of terrorism. By creating a well-sourced and researched list of behaviors we offer methods for community-basedcurbing of radicalization.

Whatmakesa crimeanactof terror?

The type of crime and scale of its outcome should not be used to determine if a crime is an act of terrorism.

If the individuals or groups committing the acts of violence are doing so because the victims do not follow their personal or religious beliefs or the act can be used as a tool for political gain, then the chances are theyareactsofterrorism.

If an individual pulls out a gun and fires at school kids or co-workers, the individual is not likely to be prosecuted as a terrorist.

9 dead, 27 injured

US Code Title 18— CRIMES AND CRIMINAL PROCEDURE

18 U.S.C. § 2339B, which punishes knowingly providing material support or resources to a designated foreign terrorist organization ("DFTO") or attempting or conspiring to do so.

• In June 2015, Congress increased the penalty for violations of these offenses to a maximum of 20 years from the previous maximum of 15 years.

• The guideline for material support offenses, USSG § 2M5.3, carries a base offense level of 26.

• If the offense involved dangerous weapons, firearms, explosives, funds to purchase any of those items, or funds or other support believing they will be used to commit a violent act, 2 levels are added.

As recent as 1983 the FBI would not investigate a terrorist act unless it had more than one person involved.

Terrorism Legislation INTENT

In a criminal case, not related to terrorism the burden of “proving intent” is on the prosecution. In the case of terrorism, acts that "appear to be intended" to intimidate, coerce, retaliate may still qualify as terroristic crimes without additional evidence.

Thirty pieces of legislation related to terrorism were enacted in the United States in 2015-2016.

Allegiance: Domestic Terror Organizations

The U.S. government does not formally designate domestic terrorist organizations.

Claiming an affiliation to a domestic terror organization is not illegal.

Therefore, it may not be illegal to give money or other forms of material support to a domestic terrorist group, even if the group is known for its violence and hatred of others.

The First Amendment protects the right of people to associate with each other and to express their points of view.

Sign on bonus for military-only jobs, so they are unprepared for civilian life. Military take care of their people with a home, job, food, so they can succeed without money management skills. Transition from military to civilian life is difficult. The sense of brotherhood, comradery, and community is gone. War experience can leave them with PTSD or other mental illnesses.
