"Terrorists" - incorrect term?
editThis article states Cheney "with a group of terrorists" assaulted Robert Paris (who subsequently died) at Newbury. I doubt the correctness of this term in the context of the events, as there is nothing conclusive in descriptions of the case in the History of Parliament biographies of Cheney and Paris (tentatively identified with a former MP for New Romney) to show it was political, or that they were seeking to overthrow the regime of the day.Cloptonson (talk) 22:03, 1 December 2013 (UTC)
