That is, of course, because there is no evidence, period.

The "report" went on to admit they don't know who the shooter(s) are, what their motives are, where they came from, who they are associated with. Or even how many of them there are.

Hell, that was true of the 9/11 hijackers, too, early in the day shortly after the planes hit. Then as more investigation was done and more evidence began to emerge, they began to find out it WAS a terrorist attack.
Lol the media these days. We have no evidence and that includes no evidence of terrorism.

The news is wrong about that. It's not that tight. To get into the WNY, you only need a CAC. No additional checks (e.g. metal detectors, car search, etc). To get into NAVSEA, it's just swipe with a badge, sign in with a security officer if you're a visitor. Mostly just civilian management/tech types that work in this building.

The dead shooter is Aaron Alexis, 34, of Ft. Worth, TX.

There are two other suspects, one black, one white. I wouldn't be surprised if the gunman acted alone and the other suspects don't exist.

Hopefully we will find out sooner or later, certainly the pieces will begin to fit together, but just our of curiosity, why do you say you wouldn't be surprised, I wouldn't be surprised if there is more than one.

Because I believe he worked there recently as a contractor. Usually mass shootings are the work of one deranged individual. I don't know why three people would be involved unless it is terrorism.

CNN is now reporting no longer looking for white suspect.
