It seems strange to denote "anti-government" extremism as a type of right wing extremism, even though it's valid in some cases (e.g. Cliven Bundy). I mean, Antifa tends to be anarchists, are we to view them as right wingers? It's also a little strange to characterize Islamic extremism as [i]not[/i] right wing, considering that they literally want to uphold traditional values.

Regardless though, it's obvious that the political right is overwhelmingly more violent than the left.

@BlueVeins I think it's taking "white supremacy" and "other right wing" together and saying more than half are right-wing. Anti-government is at the top because it's the #2 but it's not a type of right-wing. At least that's how I read it. The picture isn't entirely clear.
