1. Terrorist - exactly the right headline

2. Not sure I see where it says, "antigovernment," although wouldn't be surprised.

5. His brother says it was probably opiate related

There also was a restraining order out for him not to contact the clinic.

My guess is an opiate addicted man desperately looking for more drugs. So unless all drug addicts who go into criminal acts to get their high are “terrorists” he probably won’t be labeled as one either.

6. Law enforcement is saying he had some sort of personal grudge against the facility.

The news right now is portraying him as a long time resident of the area who has had regular run ins with the police, mostly for DUI and pot possession over the past 20 years.

He is probably a right winger, since most people in that part of Minnesota (not too far west of the Twin Cities) are Trumpers, but so far the police are treating this as some sort of revenge/personal issue thing.

8. Yes. It sounds like you're right

Doesn't mean he didn't also have antigovernment sentiment.
