I'm sure it has brought up a good debate in government policing meetings. I'm sure they would like to classify it as a terrorist act so more money can be poured into another project.

IMO, since there is no violence, then there should be no terrorism.

Of course it's terrorism. They should be treated as illegal combatants and thrown into a secret prison with no legal representation. America fuck yeah.

Some [those with a real flair for hyperbole] might suggest this rises to the level of "terrorism", but I'd be willing to bet that the perpetrators probably would prefer to characterize their efforts as a "protest". Since it appears they didn't really shut anyone down, and just affected things a bit, I'd say the net affect was actually closer in fact to the latter.

Criminal? Certainly. Terrorism? Hardly. Nothing more than the internet version of these cowards:
