The definition isn't really hard to find or follow if you really want to know. From the FBI website:
________________________________________________________________________
Domestic terrorism is the unlawful use, or threatened use, of force or violence by a group or individual based and operating entirely within the United States or Puerto Rico without foreign direction committed against persons or property to intimidate or coerce a government, the civilian population, or any segment thereof in furtherance of political or social objectives.
________________________________________________________________________
Terrorism is not just about killing people. It is about using force and/or violence for political or social objectives. I think Antifa and BLM and what we have seen the last few weeks falls easily into that category. Businesses being burned and looted. People being assaulted and murdered etc.

Cpl Jeff N. You missed the point. Burning, looting and rioting are not and never have been as serious crimes as murder. We have groups participating in domestic terrorism that are actually killing people. The focus on the groups that are not clearly shows the focus is political and not based on they danger the pose.

SPC Kevin Ford - over a dozen people have been killed during the BLM protests. Antifa has been involved in deaths and destruction for a political gain. That is the definition of terrorism. It is domestic but still terrorism.
You said "So "Antifa" was labeled a domestic terrorist organization (whatever that means)". Well we know exactly what that means. There is a definition. You are simply acting as thought they are not domestic terrorists. They are, by definition.
Any white supremist that kill or destroy property and terrorize people are guilty of the same. Apply the same standard.
