    I'm not surprised you don't want to be forthcoming with actual data.

    Lets look at the data you haven't looked at, even though you know where it is.

    Now explain your scientific conclusions again.

    This isn't a reasoned response. START provides the GTD and that shows the majority of incidents are committed by right wing terrorists.

    You'd also note, if you weren't just another dissonance sufferer, that they provide a list of scholarly research. Here's an example:

    Except this is START, and no, it doesn't show what you say it does.

    I'm providing the information from the place you know exists but haven't read.

    I mean you can sit there and pretend the data doesn't come FROM YOUR SOURCE if you'd like.

    That would just be dumb though, wouldn't it?

    More astoundingly silly comment. Come on critique the research which summarises the data trends:

    No need to spot the orange man. He makes himself a gigantic target, with him being a crook, a liar, a sleaze and a bigot who has defiled the Office.

    But I get how such a lowlife has appeal with a certain kind of person.

    Yes you should. I am totally familiar with the range of ad homs fallacies. Seems you aren't.

    Sounds like you are the one providing misinformation. @vman12 has provided an excellent counter to your position, backed up with facts. His responses are reasonable and well thought out. You think you are being clever with insults and innuendos. It's clear he has you in a corner.

    Not surprised you confuse fact with emotion. Obviously a powerful psychological defense.

    I like to let them dig their own holes before I push them in.

    LoL sure.

    I didn't get this upset every time I had to watch a 6 foot tall Mooch and her wife stand up there and talk about me keeping my doctor.

    I know you can. Misinformation is a piece of pish.

    Still haven't read the research I gave then? Here's a quote for you to pretend to critique:

    "Jihadist-inspired and far-left terrorism have been steadily declining, while far-right terrorism has experienced the opposite effect. Interestingly, since 9/11, there has not been a single year without a far-right terrorist incident, although there have been three years (2004, 2005, and 2008 ) with zero jihadist-inspired incidents"

    Well that is because all the left wing organizations refuse to label Antifa as a terrorist organization.

    Yeah clearly it declined from the 3000 people it killed in the "2000's".

    Tut tut, the quote refers to incidents. Are you incapable of critiquing the published research? No need to answer that really!

    We could have one 9/11 every hundred years and the number of people who die to right wing violence, or any other kind of terror attack, still won't be 3000.

    The first thing any leftist does when talking about terrorism is to take 9/11, and ignore it.

    Islamic terrorists were a little busy in 2004 killing 2000 people in Madrid.

    No one is ignoring jihadist terrorism. A tiresome red herring.

    This is about the reality of domestic terrorism in the US. It is increasingly homegrown right wing terrorism. I noticed you couldn't critique the quote. Perhaps you'd like to refer to an alternative piece of research? Try Freilich et al. (2018, Patterns of fatal extreme-right crime in the United States, Perspectives on Terrorism, 12: 38-51): "Studies have shown that homicides committed by extreme-rightists in the U.S. have occurred every year since
    1990 when the ECDB began tracking these events, significantly outnumbering attacks perpetrated by other terrorist movements."
