terrorist (ter' ər ist), n 1. A person who commits violence in pursuit of political goals we oppose.
hero (hē' rō) n 1. A person who commits violence in pursuit of political goals we favor.
Bonus questions: Who are "we"? How do "we" decide which goals we favor, and which goals "we" oppose?
Proposals for alternative definitions are welcome. These are the best ones I could come up with.
