The notion that it was 'strictly an act of street violence' committed by a group of men should set loud alarm bells ringing. How do they know it was 'strictly' such an act rather than anything else? Did they interview the perpetrators? Did they have evidence immediately at hand to rule out terrorism? The statement from the FBI seems designed to lead readers away from errant, unwanted speculation. If armed perpetrators jointly attended the parade to commit a shooting, there was a conspiracy which involved at least two people, and which probably involved more.
If nothing else, it looks like the Years of Lead have started in America.
