Violence by far-right is among US’s most dangerous terrorist threats, study finds

[rumrocks]

I haven't seen a lot of protestors in Mexico wanting to defund the police force.

In fact in some areas, citizens would probably like to see more police protection.

34,582 murdered in 2019.

Mostly gang-related?

One man's opinion.

"Far right extremist groups pose a danger and with Trump spouting hate and division, its even more important to stand up against those who would take us back down an ugly path".

Far left extremist groups pose a danger and with SJWs spouting hate and division, it's even more important to stand up against those who would take us back down an ugly path.

BP Such an original post! LOL

Where is your evidence to back up your opinion?

Here is mine:
The most recent in-depth analysis of far-right terrorism comes from the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS).

In a report released last week, the Escalating Terrorism Problem in the United States, CSIS analyses 25 years of domestic terrorism incidents and finds that the majority of attacks and plots have come from the far right.

The report says “the majority of all terrorist incidents in the United States since 1994, and the total number of rightwing attacks and plots has grown significantly during the past six years”, with the far right launching two-thirds of attacks and plots in 2019, and 90% of those in 2020.

The report adds: “Far-right terrorism has significantly outpaced terrorism from other types of perpetrators.” The second most significant source of attacks and plots in the US has been “religious extremists”, almost all “Salafi jihadists inspired by the Islamic State and al-Qaida”.

The report shows the far left has been an increasingly negligible source of attacks since the mid 2000s. At that time the FBI defined arsons and other forms of property damage as domestic terrorism during a period some have called the “Green Scare”.

Virtually all those involved are far left extremists

[Jay-mo]

More divisive hateful propaganda trying to label violence as "far right" or even "far left".
Violence is violence, end of sentence.
Every time you qualify "violence" or whatever the action is, with "far right", "black, white" etc. You are lumping in a pile of people who have nothing to do with whatever it is you are trying to accuse them of.

A5 do you think I really care if you think I am credible? LOL.

When you are losing you seem to switch to talking about me. That's a sure sign you don't have much to say about the subject.

I did ask how are all these changes and concerns and awareness about racism are affecting you negatively? No answer. Flea was honest. What's your excuse?

When marginalized people subject to racism make gains, there has always been push back from those who are resistant to change. Many Agriville posters are pushing back.

One lesson from history is no nation is immune from hate groups. Far right extremist groups pose a danger and with Trump spouting hate and division, its even more important to stand up against those who would take us back down an ugly path.

You should care if you are credible. It speaks volumes to your character.

Perhaps he has accepted that he is playing for an audience of one(2 now counting flea beetle), after realizing that everyone else has him on ignore? It was certainly odd how he singled out my opinion out in that response. Perhaps he is delusional enough to assume that all the posters who no longer consider him worth a response, consider him credible?

Measuring the results against an expected outcome is hardly an objective exercise. If the expected outcome is converting farmers to become rabid Marxists, then it appears the effort has been a unmitigated failure. If the expected outcome of insulting everyone who disagrees, name calling, avoiding all uncomfortable questions, and running away rather than face the facts, was to solidify opposition to his extremist views, then Chuck's strategy has been a roaring success. Perhaps it is all in how you frame the problem...

I just can't imagine how or why anyone would waste such a massive amount of their life on a mission, and not care if it is effective.

Might as well just spend all the money on crop inputs, equipment, labor, etc, then just pile them up in the center of the field and let it rot, if results don't matter. On paper you just grew an excellent crop with all the right inputs...

It is crazy how you can even try misconstrue treating people with respect into support for your cause to show racism where there is none. And you even continue to tow the line even after being proven completely wrong in the other thread. No wonder you moved to this one. Wanted to leave your epic brain fart behind.
