By their implications ye shall know them

The Associated Press has reported that the University of Illinois has denied traditional emeritus faculty status upon retirement to William Ayres, the domestic terrorist and confidant of President Obama. AP said, "Ayres co-founded the Weather Underground, an anti-war group held responsible for a series of bombings in the 1960s, including explosions at the Pentagon and the U.S. Capitol. No one died in those blasts."

So, AP implies that terroristic violence is somehow less offensive when nobody accidentally dies.
