You sure about that?


I mean sure, it’s true that there are people on the left who are intolerant. Some do hate conservatives and conservative ideology. But that prize goes to the right wing.
@SW-User That pie chart is complete nonsense and you know it. Did Don Lemon come up with that? There is no mentionable right wing terrorist issue. There is almost what you could call a left wing terrorist issue, but even that would be hyperbolic.

@puck61 [quote]There is no mentionable right wing terrorist issue[/quote]

There are plenty. Starting with the Synagouge shooter and the MAGA bomber, both men were right wing.
@SW-User You want to call every violent criminal a terrorist, then no one group can corner the market. The pie chart is ridiculous. I guess you're saying that young black males between 18 and 35 are the largest terrorist group in the United States? They represent a small cross section of 13% of the US population yet manage to commit 51% of the violent crimes! They must be a terrorist group!

@puck61 Why change the subject? Terrorism is the unlawful use of violence and intimidation, especially against civilians, in the pursuit of political aims.. A person such as the MAGA bomber sending bombs to former democratic leaders is an example of terrorism. A black man or anyone just commiting a violent crime (ex, domestic violence against his/her spouse) is not.
@SW-User Then, as I said, the pie chart is ridiculous.

@puck61 Not really.

The United States of America is a victim of 300 violent attacks inspired by the far right every year. A recent example are the three men from Illinois who were charged with a mosque bombing, one of the men drafted a border wall plan for Trump.

• May 20 – Richard Collins III, an African American and Bowie State University student, was stabbed to death by Sean Urbanski, a member of a Facebook group called the "Alt-Reich: Nation."

• May 26 – Three men in Portland tried to stop white supremacist Jeremy Christian from harassing two women who appeared to be Muslim. For their bravery, the three men were viciously attacked; two were murdered and the third was seriously injured.

• May 27 – Anthony Hammond was arrested in Clearlake, Calif. for allegedly stabbing a black man with a machete, after yelling racial slurs. While en route to the Lake County Jail, Hammond threatened to kill the transporting officer and his family once he was released. Hammond was charged with committing a hate crime, among other charges.

• May 28 – Two Native American men in Washington State were run over by a pickup truck driven by a white man shouting racial slurs and war whoops. One of the tribal members was killed and the other hospitalized.
@SW-User Criminal activity. This is propaganda from the 'real violent offenders' the left. It is a ridiculous claim that leftists love to spout during fits of virtue signaling.

@puck61 Yes, terrorism is a crime, glad you noticed.
@QuixoticSoul I hope you and your friends police yourselves and do your part to ensure that violence doesn't escalate, then. 👍

@puck61

From right wing extremists.

I mean you can deny all you want, but the evidence does not lie. I can go on and on about the attacks that have happened by on US soil done by right wing extremists. And give you all the names of the guys who have commited these attacks on U.S. soil. And there are so many.
@SW-User It's not "evidence". It's left wing propaganda. What really happens is the truth, and what is really happening is atrocious behavior on the left . I was hoping it would wane with the more even power distribution that came on the 6th, but it will probably make things worse. People who are disproportionately collectivist in their thinking are the result of a poor upbringing and that is the reason for the burgeoning 'left' in the last 60 years. They are the result of a "Lord of the Flies" atmosphere that resulted from broken homes being the rule rather than the exception. No moral compass. No discipline. No respect, and the glorification of atheism has resulted in the sick mentality of so called "progressivism" and leftist thought. Now you have the real 'National socialists' calling those with common sense, "nazis".
@QuixoticSoul That's hilarious! LEFTIST BULLSHIT BROUGHT TO YOU BY LEFTIST BULLSHITTERS! 😆😆😆
QuixoticSoul · 41-45, M
@puck61 Yeah, all that totally explains why right wing extremists are the biggest domestic threat in this country. Really makes sense.
QuixoticSoul · 41-45, M
@puck61 The ADL is a leftist organization now?
@QuixoticSoul You are using a fallacy. You have to base your argument on something real . That means something that actually exists.
@QuixoticSoul Any one can make a pie chart ! We learned that in 16 didn't we?

@puck61 This is a prime example of someone sticking their head in the sand 😂

Right wing extremists represent our biggest domestic terror threat in the US. If that's tough for you to swallow, well ok. Antifa, etc, might seem scaaaaaaaaaaary to you, but when it comes to killing they don't seem to have the numbers.
@QuixoticSoul This is a prime example of someone keeping their head up their ass!

You can tell me it's raining all you want, but that is not going to add one cloud to the clear blue sky, my friend.

@puck61 lets see:

Gordon Kahl, a Posse Comitatus activist, killed two federal marshals and he was later killed by police.

the white nationalist revolutionary group The Order (also known as the Brüder Schweigen or the Silent Brotherhood) robbed banks and armored cars, as well as a sex shop, bombed a theater and a synagogue and murdered radio talk show host Alan Berg.

The April 19, 1995 attack on the Murrah federal building in Oklahoma by Timothy McVeigh and Terry Nichols killed 168 people and it was the deadliest act of domestic terrorism in the history of the United States. McVeigh stated that it was committed in retaliation for the government's actions at Ruby Ridge and Waco.

Eric Rudolph executed a series of terrorist attacks between 1996 and 1998. He carried out the 1996 Centennial Olympic Park bombing—which claimed two lives and injured 111—aiming to cancel the games, claiming they promoted global socialism and to embarrass the U.S. government.
Rudolph confessed to bombing an abortion clinic in Sandy Springs, an Atlanta suburb, on January 16, 1997, the Otherside Lounge, an Atlanta lesbian bar, on February 21, 1997, injuring five and an abortion clinic in Birmingham, Alabama on January 29, 1998, killing Birmingham police officer and part-time clinic security guard Robert Sanderson and critically injuring nurse Emily Lyons.

As I’ve stated before there have been a lot of right wing extremeist attacks on US soil, these are a few examples. I don’t know how what I’ve presented is not evidence. I just gave you evidence, plenty of it throughout this whole conversation. And all you’ve given me is, IT’S PROPAGANDA.

@puck61 Straight from the GAO study on extremism in the US. [quote]This appendix provides details on the violent extremist attacks in the
United States based on the U.S. Extremist Crime Database (ECDB) data
and as described in the background section of this report. Specifically,
tables 1 and 2 show a description, date, location and number of victim
fatalities for each far right and radical Islamist attack between September 12, 2001 and December 31, 2016. [b]During this period, no persons in the United States were killed in attacks carried out by persons believed to be motivated by extremist environmental beliefs, extremist “animal liberation” beliefs, or extremist far left beliefs.[/b] [/quote]

😂😂😂

Better bring your umbrella dude.
@QuixoticSoul Just go to youtube. The despicable behavior and violence is on the left. Right there for everyone to see.
@SW-User Yes. It's propaganda. When reality does not align with a particular narrative it means that narrative is misleading. A misleading narrative posited to incriminate a certain group is known as "propaganda" . Any questions?

Bwahahaha solid critical thinking on display, folks 😂
@QuixoticSoul Dude! Go to a leftist infected area in the US sporting a Trump hat and T-shirt. Then come to my neck of the woods wearing some kind of liberal equivalent. You know damn good and well you would be safer in 'my' neck of the woods. THAT is the reality.
