Right wing terrorism is motivated by opposition to federal taxation and regulation, the United Nations, other international organizations, and the U.S. government itself, as well as by a hatred of racial and religious minorities. This type of terrorism, which has roots in the activities of white supremacist groups such as the Ku Klux Klan and antigovernment groups, flourished in the 1980s.

Of course they do. This is the same bunch that put out that bogus DHS terrorism alert on anyone with anti-tax bumper stickers.
Please show where there is more "right wing" violence than what is produced by the anarchists or ELF.
Of course, no mention is made of the home grown jihadists that attacked our troops at Ft Hood, were indicted for conspiracy, etc.... Only Christians are mentioned. Those others might get upset and you know what happens then....
what are the home grown jihadist groups cargosquid? i thought that guy at the militry base acted alone. was he part of a group similar to the kkk only islamic?
Hey sunshine, when rightwing goofs show up at political rallys toting battle rifles, sensible people would correctly assume that they advocate politically motivated violence.
But to your question;
Oklahoma City - we never did round up the dead-ender militia nuts that conspired with Tim McVeigh.
Knoxville shit-kicker; The guy that shot up the church because Glenn Beck told him they were evil Liberals and Gays.
Pittsburgh wingnut; The guy who ambushed and murdered 3 cops because he thought they might one-day take his guns.
Holocaust wingnut; The white supremacist nut who rolled up to the holocaust museum and shot dead the guard in front of a crowd of school kids.
Kansas bible-thumping murderer; The guy who walked into George Tiller's church and shot him while he was in prayer...because George performs legal abortions I suppose.
Arizona Trailer-trash; led by Shawna Forde an Aryan Nations devotee and self styled white revolutionary. Along with her merry band invaded the home of Raul Flores, killing him and his 9 year old daughter, gravely wounding Ms. Flores...because they are Meskins i suppose. Her accomplice, Jason Bush, turns out to have been a Nazi and shot a sleeping homeless hispanic man in 1997.
Then there was last week at a "tea party" gathering in eastern Washington state where teabagger Diane Capps called for the hanging of U.S. Senator Patty Murray.
I've got more...this is just the recent history.
Awesome Bubby! funny how the "right" conveniently forgets these trivial things.....
Squid, you made the mistake of assuming the people you're talking to on this blog are anything but rabid partisans. They're not. If you're looking for reasonable debate and discourse, this ain't it.
Let's add the goofball feminazi in Huntsville; oh, but she is a LEFT wing "dip-stick."
If you all would look at the so-called source of the claim about domestic terrorism, it always leads back to the SPLC.
The SPLC depends on stirring-up fears of domestic terrorism and specifically targeting any group that does not support Zionism, in order to stimulate contributions to the SPLC.
The SPLC uses the same tactics of baiting federal agencies with contrived reports as used by the NAACP. Both of these groups are dedicated to the sole purpose of lining their own pockets.
The reality is that Patriot groups, while staunchly pro-Second Amendment,are not a threat to the United States.
What we need to do, is take the advice of Andrew Young, who said that if we took the time to address the problems of the "White poor" most of the foundations for racial strife in America would be neutralized.
Paul; rightwing violence is ideological and political - these people purposely attack and kill people that they do not know. Yet they Believe that they know them. Just like the Jihadi suicide bomber.
The Alabama professor killed people who had denied her tenure, and she had previously murdered her own brother. She was crazy, not a crusader or jihadi on a mission.
Rightwing extremists are the "dirty hippies" of the Conservative movement and just about as attractive to centrist Americans.
Anon, another stupid and inaccurate comment as usual. This is not a rabid partisan site, although you try to make it one with your hate filled, inaccurate nonsense. Don't transfer your rabidity to the good folks of this site. We truly invite discourse, which is so lacking in this country these days. The problem is that you offer so little of it.
"This is not a rabid partisan site, although you try to make it one with your hate filled, inaccurate nonsense."
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! That's funny. Hey dude, just cuz you have "free thinking" at the top of the blog doesn't make it so. You Dem tools had candidate ads running in the sidebar during the election, for Christ's sake! But no, this isn't a highly partisan site, not at all. HAHAHAHAHA!
Please doon't forget that the Democratic party is the party of the KKK.
