Depends on how loosely you use the definition.

While there is no political aspect in this case, terrorist can be applied to any person victimizing other(s)through fear.

This. I wouldn't consider him a terrorist, since the modern definition almost always includes terror used for some kind of political aim. It doesn't appear like that was the case here, though. He was just messed up. A murderer.

I think it depends on why he did it, which we don't know yet, soooooo...no.

A terrorist in the sense of attacks like 9/11? No.
But anyone who causes terror could be lumped together and be called terrorists.

I think he was just a mad man.

Quoting Pusherman:" Using this definition: "A person who uses terrorism in the pursuit of political aims." I was reading ... [snip!] ... "now he'll get his 72 virgins" and stuff like that. To me, it's pretty obvious it wasn't politically or religiously motivated. "

I see no reference to political or religious causes.

I assume these people are basing their comments solely on the assumption that he is Muslim.

but I could be wrong.

Quoting Pusherman:" He has a Muslim sounding name. He may or may have been Muslim. "
Right, but pretty presumptious, imo

Well it is the daily mail, well known for hating those "benefit scrounging, immigrant, muslim, child molesting scum". It attracts a certain class of commenters that are normally a bit rabid and who hate everyone, especially lefties and immigrants/ muslims/ the unemployed etc. thus having a name that sounds islamic is definite proof of terrorism  

It is good for a laugh, and I believe it is very good in the celeb gossip section but apart from that I wouldn't wipe my arse with it for fear of getting a paper cut.
