Ok I guess I'm confused what you are referring to what you say that in itself seems biggoted. I thought you meant my statement seemed biggoted.

Your first reply did to me, your 2nd which you worded differently, didn't.

18 people, eh? So how many THOUSANDS of Hispanics were murdered in 2017 by Latin gangs? How many THOUSANDS of blacks were killed by black gangs? Where's the outrage about THAT? And God forbid we ever have an honest discussion about the crimes committed by illegal aliens. For sports fans keeping score:

thread winner. I guess killing people over drugs or turf wars or wearing gang colors doesn't make them as dead as some Klanner blasting a black guy with a shotgun

Like I've said, the real terrorists in America are white, lean Right, and probably voted for Donald Trump.

Such people are right here on this board. Donald Trumps vitriolic rhetoric over the past year bolsters his reputation as a president who frowns on "people of color". His administration revels in being divisive.

Unfortunately, white supremacy is a retro-trend that will no doubt increase in the near term.

Can you list some more "domestic extremists of all stripes" so we can check this data point for ourselves?

Ft. Hood. Chattanooga. Dallas. San Bernardino. Baton Rouge. Charleston. Orlando. So what can we conclude about extremists during the Obama Administration, other than "right-wing bigots" were picking on Muslims and blacks and it was really the guns' fault? Can we conclude anything meaningful about Trump or anyone else by cherry picking from such a small sample? I think not. But if you insist, try these facts on for size:

From 2008 through 2017, according to the ADL, right-wing extremists have killed 274 people. That’s 71 percent of the 387 murders committed by extremists over the past 10 years.

The years 2008 through 2016 include the last year of the Bush Administration through the entire eight years of the Obama Administration. If we exclude Trump's first year in office, 256 people, or an average of 28 people per year, were killed over that time by "right-wing" extremists, including white supremacists. In 2017, according to the ADL report, 20 people were killed by "right-wing" extremists. So what can we conclude? That Trump is "making America great again" by reducing right-wing extremist murders by 28% from the preceding nine-year average, most of which occurred while Obama was president?

This paranoia about keeping us safe is a pathetic commentary on the cowardice of the old white fart C grabber cult.

If you count it all we spend 1/2 our taxes on glorifying the miltary. No wonder we have 3rd world roads.
As the old joke goes"if you are not smart enough to get a real job, join the military, great benefits"

Yup, Obama was black (well 1/2)
Enough to spike gun sales

Don't be disingenuous. His race had nothing to do with it. It had more to do with his mouth. And once he was out of office and no longer a threat to gun rights, gun sales (and the prices of gun stocks with them) cratered.

It's not even that. they count a klan guy shooting another klan guy as an example of being worse than islamic terrorist groups.

If they're using as one of their examples that Virginia teen who shot his girlfriends parents then I have to wonder how many others are simply linked to extremists simply because they held extremist beliefs. While that boy was indeed a neo-nazi that doesn't mean that he killed the girlfriend parents out of ideological extremism. Odds are that he killed them because they drove a wedge between him and his girlfriend. Which would make that a crime of passion, not a crime made in the name of ideology like the proper example that they gave of the Charlottesville killing.

That said, murders are only part of the story. What about the other part of the story? The riots? The burning of buildings? You know, the violence caused by ideology but didn't result in deaths? Aren't those important to consider also?

All that said.....It doesn't matter who the extremists are or what type of damage they caused. What matters is that these types of things should not happen. Period. No matter the ideology, it should all be condemned.

Funny how the liberal/Demos' wrecking machine is making this our problem.
Mind you our President Trump has nothing to do with this yet he's being blamed.
The only thing I blame our President is the upswing in our economy.

Looking at Trump very oddly when he's trying to make a point is not unusual, and might have nothing to do with racism what so ever. I mean, look at buzz adrin looking at trump when Trump was speaking about space.
