The only correct response, you don't bargain with terrorists. Her turning up and debating it legitimises it like it's an actual educational option and not lies.

pretty sure you cant be a terrorist and a governor at the same time. is this like calling people nazi's because you disagree with them?

"Terrorist: a person who uses unlawful violence and intimidation, especially against civilians, in the pursuit of political aims."

Do you think a governor is above the law? Or can't do anything illegal? Or that they can't intimidate?

Please explain which part he isn't able to do. I'm not seeing it.

Do you remember the metaphor lesson from elementary school?

pretty sure you cant be a terrorist and a governor at the same time.

Cheers mate, I needed a chuckle.

Most terrorist leaders were equivalent to governors or higher. What the hell does holding the office of governor do to prevent someone from using fear and violence for political gain?
