Remember that Jewish center in Seattle that got shot up last week? Probably not, as it's received approximately zero media attention. Just check this article.
The headling says "Family friend: Wash. suspect was troubled". Sounds like a pity case, right? The details contained in the article reveal that the man, Naveed Haq, is a US born Muslim who, using a 13-year-old girl as a human shield, forced his way into the Jewish center with two semi-automatic pistols, and said that he was upset about US involvement in Iraq, US support of Israel, and Jews pushing his people around.
As the Jawa Report indicates, that's four strikes for "terrorist" over "nutjob".
I think $50 million bail is entirely appropriate.
