which 6 persons were killed; and the 1995 Oklahoma City bombing of the
Alfred P. Murrah federal building by anti-government far right individuals,
in which 168 lives were lost. The September 11, 2001, attacks account for
the largest number of fatalities in the United States in a single or closelyrelated
attack resulting from violent extremism in recent decades. While
the September 11, 2001, attacks were perpetrated by foreign violent
extremists, from September 12, 2001 through December 31, 2016,
attacks by domestic or “homegrown” violent extremists in the United
States resulted in 225 fatalities, according to the ECDB. Of these, 106
were killed by far right violent extremists in 62 separate incidents, and
119 were victims of radical Islamist violent extremists in 23 separate
incidents. Figure 1 shows the locations and number of fatalities involved
in these incidents. A detailed list of the incidents can be found in appendix
II. According to the ECDB, activities of far left wing violent extremist
groups did not result in any fatalities during this period.


The source is our government.

Now Jim changes the subject from Right wing to liberals (not left wing, just liberals)

Just out of curiosity, how about the guy who assassinated 5 Dallas police officers, who said he wanted to kill as many white cops as he could? Please explain why those 5 murders don't count as mass murders at the hands of liberal extremists?

We're all ears. You have fun squirming your way out of that hole.

I respond to the discussion, not Jim's deflection

That is what they found for that period of time.

Now keep in mind that in order to protect us, the Trump administration cut funding for these programs. I assume you could understand the reasoning behind that. I don't know of any other than it was a program started under the Obama administration.

I can't help it if you want different data or a different timeframe, find a study that backs it up. Trump, the Daily blank or whatever right wing news organization you hear this BS on is not a reputable source.

Jim's not happy, the deflection did not work

whatever you say, Columbo.

his ptsd doesn’t mater, they’re all crazy. you were interested in the political motivation of mass murderers, and you claimed that exactly zero were liberal.

why is his religion important? muslims can’t be liberal? i thought conservatives were all islamophobes, now you’re saying muslim and liberal are mutually exclusive?

how about this, how about admitting that there are whackos on both sides?

I bring up the question I asked, that Jim never answered

Right or left wing, no need to differentiate for this conclusion, domestic terrorists killed as many americans in the period of that study as Islamists and it is becoming more of an issue, not less.
Good luck with that.

Now somehow Jim has gotten the idea that this is a discussion about the color of police officers and is worried that I think liberals have never killed anyone.

it cannot be debated that he was a liberal terrorist. denying that, makes as much sense as if i denied that McVeigh was a right wing terrorist.

When your agenda requires you to deny indisputable facts, it might be time for a new agenda.

Kinda think I didn't deny that there are domestic terrorists on both sides
Jim said "how about this, how about admitting that there are whackos on both sides?"
I said "Of course there are, but there is a man with a bully pulpit daily winding up the whackos on one side. Look at how he has you screaming about little brown people, thousands of miles away."

Now how do you feel about Trump cutting the funding for domestic terrorism? Good or Bad?
