I am not going quibble with Professor Holt here, but I will note that my analysis of the number of Americans killed by Islamic terrorists in the US since 9/11 (that we know of) suggests that it is actually in the high 80's.

What I would like to talk about here is something that a lot of conservatives missed when the original New America article came out: Deaths attributable to so-called 9/11 illness. This was originally a liberal cause, but it has now become a bipartisan free-for-all giveaway. Today, 70,000 people have filed associated claims (number one disease that you the taxpayer are on the hook for: "Post Traumatic Stress Disorder").

If anyone is interested, I would love to discuss this subject further, but as deaths attributed to 9/11 illness will inevitably surpass those killed in the actual attacks themselves, I believe that it is only fair that we add them to the Islamic Terrorism figures for the purposes of this conversation.

All those who make the opposite argument always start AFTER 9/11. They also leave out the DC sniper killings, and that black Muslim guy who killed 2 or 3 gays in the Seattle area, then went to NJ and killed a couple of people. He admitted that he was on his own personal jihad.

Seems to me there have been a lot more left wing extremists committing violence than right wing, going back to Leon Czolgolz.

Federal government terrorists are probably running a solid second or third after the first place muzzies.

We know they racked up a count of 76 at the Branch Davidian slaughter alone.

What is really cause for despair is that there are enough fools that say, believe or accept such a thing that it requires “DEBUNK”ing.

10 leisurely minutes on the internet with a left leaning search engine could debunk the threat of right-wing extremists in the U.S.

Also if you tried to calculate what percentage of Christian Americans, or white Americans, or even white right wing Christian Americans kill somebody over religion or politics and then tried to compare that to what percentage of Islamic Americans (even not counting visitors) do the same I’d think you would see that we “dangerous extremists” are not very dangerous at all.

Conservatives are united by a belief in the rule of law and small government. Christians are governed by the Law of Love. In 50 years of interacting with both groups, I have never heard anyone advocate terrorism.

There is no rightwing or leftwing. There are those who believe in Liberty, and those who believe in tyranny. The KKK was a democrat invention intent on subverting the law. Nazis and neo-Nazis are socialists, and therefore kissin’ cousins of the socialists in the DNC. Environmentalists, anarchists, black lies matter, weather underground and on and on are neither Christian or Conservative, and certainly don’t believe in Liberty.

Finding that mythical Conservative Christian terrorist will prove to be quite difficult.

There is no such thing as “right-wing extremists”.

All anyone is talking about is specific incidences of islamic terror. What incident specifically was it proven with facts, like a voter registration card, that a right wing extremists killed anyone? I am just asking, I don’t know of a single incident. All white boy with mental problem killers, starting with Columbine, were either registered D or their parents were.
