The media only labels it a terror attack if the person isn't white.

And the typo is just from fast typing of a breaking story. Yes, you could interpret it as saying the beheading was not serious, but only if you're determined to find fault.

You survived an alert 5-2, by the way:

"We are talking about someone slaughtered and here joke about misstyping. Pathetic"
and the 2 votes to hide said:
"Post is attacking the OP for poor English language skills. Let's be inclusive and not attack people when they don't word things perfectly. "
and
"Unnecessary rudeness. The OP is by a person whose English is her second language. "
You have the chance to edit, now.
