"Terrorist attack" - hesitancy
The NOPD had a press conference this morning. The mayor of New Orleans claimed this was a "terrorist" attack. However the person from the FBI who is leading the investigation said that it is not a terrorist attack. So for now, I suggest we possibly refrain from using the term.

- The description is in my opinion quite clear that it was a terrorist attack. It was clearly done to maximize casualties, so the term should apply here. 2A02:8388:1643:D680:7C20:EEFA:982E:22B7 (talk) 14:06, 1 January 2025 (UTC)
- It doesn't matter one whit what your opinion is on whether it is terrorism or not. The only thing that matters is what WP:RS reliable sources say. Marcus Markup (talk) 14:22, 1 January 2025 (UTC)
- It's been massively covered as a TERRORIST attack at this point. "In a later update, the FBI confirmed the driver was dead and that the incident was being investigated as an "act of terrorism"."<-- BBC News
"The FBI said in a news release that they are investigating it "as an act of terrorism." <-- CBS News ... it would appear Duncan got scorched for making such a misguided comment, and the White House has since directed a correction be made officially.2603:6080:2100:47CB:1DD7:82E7:CE76:D0A8 (talk) 14:26, 1 January 2025 (UTC)
Title
I suggest to change the title in to "2025 New Orleans attack". This attack was also carried out by shooting, not just with a truck. Gianluigi02 (talk) 13:21, 1 January 2025 (UTC)
