A gunman firing from a Las Vegas hotel rained a rapid-fire barrage on a huge outdoor concert festival on Sunday night, sending thousands of people fleeing until SWAT units found and killed him. More than 50 victims died, and at least 200 others were wounded, officials said, making it one of the deadliest mass shootings in United States history.

Gunman was a 64-year-old white guy, so we already know this was not a terrorist incident:

The shooting is not believed to be connected to terrorism, NBC News has learned.

. . . Jamelle Bouie is already getting excoriated for simply pointing out that the practically instantaneous official declarations that this doesn’t seem to be terrorist-related indicate the extent to which the concept of terrorism has been racialized.
