White Supremacists Killed More People in 2017 Than Did Radical Muslims

Already being discussed here

And my reply here is the same as it was over there. Post 39 if you care to read it.

But hey, kudos to you for finding a biased POS article about it. Remind me to never read "The Root" again.
 
WOW! 18 out of 34 is certainly most. I can't argue with that fact so whatever other assertions accompany that fact must also be true. ;)

What "growing carnage" are you blathering about? US terrorism deaths in 2017 (at 34) are lower than in 2016 (at 68).

A 2017 report by The Nation Institute and Center for Investigative Reporting looked at the terrorist incidents in the US between 2008 and 2016.[5] It found:[6]

115 right-wing inspired terror incidents. 35% of these were foiled (meaning no attack happened) and 29% resulted in fatalities. These terror incidents caused 79 deaths.
63 Islamist inspired terror incidents. 76% of these were foiled (meaning no attack happened) and 13% resulted in fatalities. These terror incidents caused 90 deaths.

It does appear right-wing terrorist attacks are harder to detect (stop in advance?) than Islamist terrorist attacks and that right-wing terrorists are better at killing their intended victims but right-wing terrorist attacks have still claimed fewer total victims than Islamist terrorists in the past 8 years.
